The Power Enthusiast

MINERVO 22: Allow Cherry

"How dare a dirty delinquent like you mention my birth name carelessly here?" Nico fixed his glasses that were about to go down, then he smiled obliquely. "But okay, I'll understand your stupid attitude. After all, a trashy human like you can't get a good education. So I think, manners and manners, are not necessary when talking to the trash of society like you."

The veins on Paul's forehead and neck began to appear, his blood flow rose drastically making his face so reddened with annoyance, his hands clenched tightly, wanting to smash at the face of the teary-eyed man in front of him. However, Paul had to hold back his anger, otherwise something bad would happen, let alone his position he was in a library, where the place did have a rule not to be noisy, not to disturb other visitors who are reading. As a result, Paul took a deep breath, then took it out slowly. A moment after, he tried to respond to Nico's words with a calm intonation.

"It's up to you to tell me what about me" said Paul, with a face so flat that he should have been battered by his hand this very second, but he tried to hold it as hard as he could. "I just want to give you some important information, Nico. And I want us to discuss it in a more suitable place, because I don't think it's a suitable place."

Nico, the white-haired man wearing glasses immediately narrowed his eyes after hearing Paul's words. "An information? From a dirty delinquent like you?" Nico squinted his eyes at Paul. "What do you want to tell me? I get suspicious, because usually delinquents like you like things that stink of violence, and you want to take me to a suitable place? Whatisit? A trick? I'm sure you're gonna beat me up in a tight alley, aren't you?"

Again Nico launched a fairly spicy words, making two ears of Paul so very hot. But, Paul did not want to ruin this moment, because it seemed like the hero figure in Vineas City had such a sharp mouth, that it could upset anyone if he heard it. Therefore, since Nico seems to be somewhat different from the previous heroes, Paul must find a way for the white man to submit to him. Because the type of person like Nico seems to be very difficult to approach. And here's a new test Paul has to pass to get a new hero.

"Can't you, relax a little?" When he said that, Paul's lower lip shook because he could not bear to say harsh words. "I didn't come here to fight or fight with you. I just came here to give you some very important information, so can you come with me to a more suitable place to discuss it, Nico?"

"I refuse." As fast as lightning, Nico chimed in on Paul's words with pouting lips. His glasses glinted at the bright lights hanging in the middle of the library room, then, Nico made a sound again with eyeballs glancing at Jeddy, Colin, and Cherry who were standing upright watching him. "Because I know, you didn't come here alone. You bring your delinquent friends who have different posture. And it looks like their appearance also looks tacky and lame, I was confused what to say to the three stupid humans. But they're your friends, right? You see, in my eyes, you guys look the same."

"What did you say?" Unable to stand it any longer, Paul began to show his anger - his teeth were clapping, his jaw was tightening, his two eyeballs were bulging almost out, and the veins all over his body were protruding very clearly. Watching Paul's turbulent temper before him, Nico's thin lips curled, creating a thin smile that managed to make Paul even more upset when he saw it.

"You need a word repetition? All right," Nico exhaled calmly to the point that he finally said, "I told you, the appearance of the three foolish humans looks tacky and crummy, and in my eyes, you all look sam-"

THE BUAG!

Nico's nose was immediately hit by Paul's fist until the man slammed into the shelves of books lined up until the shelves fell, making the books stored on each shelf thrown into disarray. Even people who were reading while standing near the bookshelf were hit by the fall of the shelves, making their bodies squashed with pain from being squeezed. As the bookshelves collapsed to the floor, the people who were not hit by the calamity were hit by the shelves, only shrill in fear.

"Geez!" Colin's eyes widened so shocked he saw the incident, he immediately ran up to Paul and said, "Why did you even hit him!? Paul!? What are you really thinking!? Isn't he the-"

"SILENCE!" A loud bang was immediately issued by Paul because he was annoyed to hear Colin's annoying screech. Paul turned his gaze to Colin in a frenzy. "I can't take it anymore! I don't like his mouth when he talks! He really makes me angry! How asshole!"

Jeddy and Cherry come to Paul in a hurry, then their attention is focused on the figure of Nico who fell on the shelves of books collapsed. "Bro!" Jeddy exclaimed at Paul as he saw Nico begin to rise from the surface, even with a cough. "He didn't faint, it turned out! Though I'm sure your punch is very hard, maybe if I get hit, I'll die, hahahaha!" Though the situation was tense, but Jeddy could still laugh, what a very relaxed person.

"It's like you didn't hear it" Now Cherry, who was speaking with such a dark intonation, seemed like the girl was falling into her dark mode. Cherry's eyes glanced sharply at the figure of Nico who was raising his body to stand upright. "But Cherry heard it very clearly. That guy is really annoying! He kept on spouting insulting words at Paul! Cherry wants to kill him! That's why when Paul hit him, Cherry was so happy. Because he deserves it!"

"It's good that you understand" said Paul after hearing Cherry's words, he flashed a faint smile when he saw Nico standing upright, far in front of him, the white clothes worn by the man also looked dirty exposed to dust from shelves that were rarely cleaned, then his glasses also cracked. And staggered, Nico walked up to Paul. "What's? I want to kick you again, huh!?" paul cried when Nico was in front of him.

The other visitors who witnessed this, only muttered, they whispered to each other, discussing Paul's vile attitude. Even so, Paul did not care about the voices around him, he remained focused on Nico's already blue face.

Paul was silent in his position, he seemed to be pondering over the words Nico had spoken to him. Paul's anger began to fade, he returned to normal, and then, he sighed heavily. "Stupid" said Paul, biting his lower lip. "Because of my anger, I've lost that hero." Paul seemed to groan, regretting his careless deeds.

However, Colin, Jeddy, and Cherry who were nearby, simultaneously touched Paul's shoulder while rubbing it gently. "From the grimace, we better go after the man, Paul," Colin suggested in a quiet voice. "Because no matter how thick the person is, he must have his own privileges until the fireflies choose him. We just don't know it yet. I'm sure it is."

"I didn't think I'd be comforted by a loser like you, but fine! Comeing! We're going after him! Goddamn bum!" Paul ran straight out of the library, leaving his friends still there.

"Who do you call a loser, fuck!" Colin also ran out of the library while shrinking his voice at Paul's words.

"Let's! Are we playing with the cats!? Who is the cat? Cherry doesn't want to be a cat! Then Jeddy's a cat, yeah! Hihah! Pursue Cherry if you canaaa!" It seems that Cherry has returned to her carefree mode, until the girl finally runs out of the library, leaving Jeddy alone there.

"Loh-loh-loh-loh?" Jeddy frowned, looking astonished at the behavior of his friends who ran leaving him alone in the library that was already a mess. "But it seems so exciting! Okay fine! I follow! Bro! Ahhaha!" And finally, they all left the library, with no one willing to take responsibility for the damage done there, making the library managers so troubled to take care of it.

And so it happened, the chase scene on the side of the road. Nico, with blood dripping from his nose, keeps trying to run away from Paul. But behind him, Paul and his friends even more fiercely chasing him, until Nico can not rival his speed, especially his body is very thin, until his waist feels pain because of constantly running, especially if he is very thin, make the speed decrease.

"Because of you!" Paul managed to grab Nico's back hair until it made the man with glasses stop suddenly. "You as fast as you can run, you'll be caught by me!"

Nico turned his head to Paul, revealing his battered face - nosebleed, blue right cheek, cracked glasses, and slightly swollen lips. Then, in a hoarse voice, Nico voiced out with a sharp eye gaze. "What do you want now?" asked Nico with trembling lips. "You've ruined my favorite place, my face, my pride, and now what do you want?"

"As I said from the beginning, I actually have no intention of fighting or fighting with you! You're the one who deliberately provoked my anger!" Paul exclaimed by the side of the road, making some passersby notice him. After that, Colin, Jeddy, and Cherry get behind Paul, making Nico grieve at the arrival of the three of them.

"Would you drag me to a lonely place this time and then you, along with your three friends, gang up on me until I die? Truly predictable grooves of dirty delinquents like you. Heh!" Although the condition is not good, but Nico is still able to throw spicy words while grunting disgust at them. "If that were the case, how else, maybe my life would end tragically at the hands of four trash like you. It's so sad."

Paul took off the grip on Nico's hair and he answered the man's words in a flat tone. "Your brain is so shallow," The snow fell around them, the cold came back. "I don't care about your annoying arrogance. Because right now, I just want to say something very important to you!" Paul took a deep breath, then began to continue saying, "My goal in coming to Vineas City is to tell you! That you've been chosen to be a hero!"

After saying that, Paul was silent, waiting for Nico's reaction, as well as Jeddy, Colin, and Cherry, they also peeked there. Hearing Paul's words, Nico immediately snorted, his eyes narrowed looking bored. "Have you?" nico said in a soft voice. "If so, can I go home? I don't have time to even laugh at or ridicule you guys anymore. Goodbye, street trash."

Just as Nico was about to step foot out of Paul's sight, Cherry suddenly walked briskly until the girl immediately stood before Nico, blocking the man, with an extremely horrifying look in her eyes, to make his friends were shocked to see his behavior. "You've repeatedly said trashy, dirty delinquents, stupid, stupid, stupid, tacky, shitty and other annoying things to Paul. That's why, in return, allow Cherry to rip, squeeze, cut, slam, punch, stomp, pull, stab, and smash your spicy mouth!" Cherry's eyes bulged as she said so.

Hearing that, Nico clucked in shock, Colin's mouth gaping, Jeddy knitted his eyebrows, and Paul shook his head.
