A big frame over two meters, bulging and seemingly steel-hard muscles with pulsating veins below the dark bronze skin, black leather clothing that was filled with iron spikes and chains like on the shoulder or elbow parts, and a long mohawk punk style hair that almost looked like a punk's!

The giant named Kayn walked and stopped before Raven, his dark blue eyes staring down at him from above and seemingly assessing him silently from head to toe.

'...'

As Raven and Kayn stood before each other, the latter looking upward nervously while the latter stared downward rather menacingly, the corner of Thomas' lips curved scarcely toward the sky and walked between the two.

"Young Master, please let me introduce you to Mr.Kayn, a very old friend of Master Dan and also someone with a vast amount of knowledge and experience in the field of hand-to-hand combat."

'Old friend of my father?' Raven felt puzzled, not remembering if Dan would have met even once with an individual such as this guy in front of him.

"Before The Greate Change, he lived on Starlight Island," Thomas explained when he saw Raven's confused but suspicious gaze.

"What?" Raven's pupils shrunk that very next instant, his view on the person before him changing one hundred and eighty degrees.

The Great Change was the name those very 'creative' individuals within the United World League gave the moment everyone was teleported into the first Realm Game. Though, this was not the main reason why Raven freaked out so much.

No, instead, it was because of the second part Thomas just said.

Starlight Island. Although its name held the word 'Island', in truth, it was not one; or at least not that kind of island one thought about when one heard that word.

Starlight Island was an artificial island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, one that was so big that it was almost 50% the size of Australia!

It was massive, to say the least. Though, despite having a gigantic size with the capability to accommodate close to 13 million people and heaps of animals, its population was only 1.4 million!

Why so small?

It was because Starlight Island was a place where only those with privilege or high status could place their feet on! The very privileged or filthy rich people could even rent residences there and live until they were either thrown out or forced to leave because of the shortage of money!

Naturally, it was needless to say Old Dan was one of those few individuals who if wanted, could easily live on that island, and for the rest of his life at that! He was just that wealthy.

'Wait... Kayn... Lived on Starlight Island before the Great Change...' almost as if a memory wished to swim up onto the surface from deep down his mind, Raven began to frown and think hard.

Thomas and Kayn in the meantime just smiled scarcely and waited in silence.

'Wait... Kayn... Kayner William? The legendary war hero who fought during the Third World War? Who saved many lives and achieved numerous impossible feats, some of them even accomplished all alone?' Raven's eyes widened as the image he once saw in a book when he was still a kid appeared in his head.

"Finally figured it out, huh?" Kayn showed a cocky smile before he laughed and extended his right hand forward, "It is a pleasure to finally meet you kid, my name is Kayner William and from now on it will be me who you will call as Teacher. Though, I would prefer you to call me Master as that sounds cooler, haha!"

Raven stared at the big hand before him that looked as massive as a shovel, and even before he could have realized...

"...What?"

Standing in the center of a room that looked like a well-equipped gym with a huge circular space in the middle, Kayn grabbed his leather jacket and handed it to Thomas, who with the piece of clothing looked like a kid holding a blanket.

"Mr.Kayn... Is this really the right way to do it?" Thomas asked with a hint of worry in his voice, watching as Kayne started to crack his neck and move his massive arms around, causing his already gigantic muscles to bulge even more!

"No need to fret, I will go easy on him." Kayn replied calmly as he turned around, but just as he took a step forward, he quietly added, "Or at least I won't kill him."

Thomas' face was nonchalant, but from the way the corner of his mouth twitched scarcely, it was pretty much apparent that he didn't like Kayn's idea.

Meanwhile, about 10 meters away from Kayn and Thomas, just at the perimeter of the clear circular area in the middle of the room, Raven stood in one place. He looked serene, his eyes sharp, but his face still sweated a little from nervousness and his fingers were clenched into tight fists.

Right now, he was forced to fight with Kayn, one of the few war heroes out there who while although saved many lives also took away a hundred times more than that! He also was known as Blood Phantom which was given to him as a title when he slew over 100 soldiers during a single night all alone, using nothing but a machete!

Just imagining as a single individual sliced the throats of 100 armed soldiers all alone made Raven swallow nervously and calculate the severity of his injuries once this one-sided beating will come to its end.

As for his chances to emerge as a victor... Haha! He had zero chance.

Walking toward Raven with slow but firm steps like a real giant, Kayn stopped right in the center of the circular platform and crossed his arms before his wide chest.

"Come, I will give you three tries. Show me what you got." Kayne spoke with a deep voice, standing in one place with an indifferent face like an immovable mountain.

Raven glanced at Thomas for a second before he took a deep breath and walked before Kayne.

'Here I go....' Raven sighed quietly and raised his left hand to throw out a punch, only to see in the next second a large rock was flying at his face with insane speed.

Wait... Rock? That was a fricking fist!

Raven's pupils shrunk when he realized that the rock was Kayn's fist and his body as a result froze momentarily.

[Avatar Imprint: Luck Boost Second Effect had been triggered!]

"Wha-" Raven hearing an unfamiliar voice in his head felt even confused, but the very next second Kayn's fist landed square on his face, sending his body flying backward a few meters!

"Lesson number one. Never trust the words of anyone much less your enemies'. If you do and lower your guard just because you think they won't fight back, you are as good as dead." lowering his hand with an indifferent gaze, Kayn walked beside Raven's now lying body and looked down at him.

'Cough... Cough... Crap... that hurt!" grabbing his now bleeding nose with a pained expression and pushing himself up, Raven looked up at Kayn and wished to say something, but just as he opened his mouth his eyes widened.

This time, it was a leg that flew at him, one that was almost as thick as his thigh!

However, for some weird reason, the moment Raven fixed his gaze on the attack everything became fairly slower compared to previously. He could even see the outline of Kayn's leg and it no longer looked like a blur or flash in his eyes!

Of course, this still didn't mean he was able to avoid the attack as it was still incredibly fast. It just simply gave him enough time to raise both his hands next to his head to disperse the force of the impact, but he still ended up as a sandbag, getting kicked a few meters away to the side!

Bam!

Watching as Raven's body flew to the side together with a painful groan, Kayn's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise before his indifference came back.

"Lesson number two. If you want to strike, never show your intention. Keep your emotions hidden and your thoughts clear. If you are incapable of doing something so simple as that, you lost the very moment the fight began."

Then, once he said those words, Kayn grabbed Raven by his collar with one hand and raised him into the air. As for his other hand, he had already pulled it scarcely backward, ready to land a firm punch right on Raven's stomach.

Raven, feeling as he was lifted off the ground and seeing how Kayn was ready to punch his very soul out of his body, clenched his teeth and did something neither Thomas nor Kayn expected; he grabbed the Backroom Key from his neck, and with a quick stab jabbed its tip into Kayn's forearm!

Though, to Raven's absolute horror, the moment he drilled his key into the flesh, Kayn didn't start to yell much less loosen his grip! Hell, he didn't even flinch but simply just stared at him coldly, completely ignoring the blood flowing down his arm!

'I'm screwed...' was what Raven thought before Kayn finally moved, slamming his fist into his abdomen without any mercy!
