My Werewolf System

Chapter 119: Don’t be a fool

The two White Rose agents were currently undercover. Following a lead to track down the missing student and suscpected Altered murderer, it had brought them here. An ‘underground’ fighting ring. The police had apprehended someone who had testified that Billy Bruntin had been participating in these events under the stage name of Billy Buster.

Unfortunately, the venues where these events took place would constantly change. Even going to the place where Billy was last seen had given them no results. It looked like professionals would come after and clean up the place pretty good. Whoever was in charge of organising these things knew what they were doing.

It had taken them quite a while but they had eventually been given a location and were hoping that they would find someone who might know Billy. If possible they hoped to learn what happened to him on the day before his parents had died.

Of course, the two adults had to stay undercover, because they needed to gather information. Luckily, nobody really cared about who was who at this event, as long as nobody disturbed the rest. Even though the two agents were well aware that everything that was going on was illegal, this wasn’t the time for them to act, nor was it something that was their concern.

The police would have to take care of this, while they were merely responsible for dealing with Altered. If they were to try to catch every single gang member, their job would never end and they knew they needed to act professional and only concern themselves with Altered cases like the one they were currently on.

What they had never expected was to see someone that neither one of them would forget. However, after checking Westbridge’s school register and finding a Gary Dem, they no longer bothered with him. It seemed he had told the truth.

‘He said that he didn’t know who Billy was, yet now he not only comes to this event, but is actively participating in one. If he just so happened to start fighting, this would be the biggest coincidence in the world. Whatever the case, he’ll have some serious explaining to do.’ Sadie thought. ‘He had to have an idea of what happened to Billy.’

“If we approach him here he might run off and alarm any others. Let’s not risk blowing our cover and just continue watching for now. We’ve already checked in with his school, so we can always find him later.” Frank suggested and Sadie was inclined to agree.

Why trouble themselves trying to catch him through this mess, when they knew where he would be five days of the week.

She was looking forward to finding out why that Gary kid lied to them. Was he covering for Billy, or were the two of them related in some other way?

‘So that guy didn’t lie about the green kid being here…’ Austin smiled as he saw him. ‘Didn’t think I would see that loner Innu here as well, but those two against those Eton High guys I heard so much about, well this should indeed be interesting. That guy didn’t overpromise in that regard.

‘I never did get to test out how strong either one of them was, so let’s see what they’ve got.’

When Gary stood there looking at who their opponents were, he was very thankful. He wasn’t a big fan of using his strength just to fight for the sake of it. He wanted to believe he was better than the average bully. So far, he had mostly fought against gang members and knowing what they did he had little to no sympathy for them.

However, just fighting for the sake of fighting, wasn’t something Gary was used to. Even in his official fight against Billy and Steven he had his reasons to fight them. In the former case it had been because he had needed the money, and Kai had sorta forced him into that situation. In the latter case, he had believed that to be a quick way to gain Exp and his system had even sweetened the deal by issuing him a Quest.

Of course, seeing the smug faces of the twins in front of him, Gary was more than happy to repay them for what they did to Tom.

“What a nice surprise, not only are our opponents some weaklings, but we’ll even get the chance for some payback on that onion head.” Sren sneered as he looked down on the green haired teenager. He was still pissed about how much money they had lost because the game had ended in a draw. He had even been planning perhaps a way to make him and Blake pay up the money.

“If you think I’m the same as in that rugby match, you’re in for a surprise!” Gary replied confidently. “This time there won’t be a referee to save you once I have you pinned down. I haven’t forgotten what you bastards did to my best friend!”

As for Innu and Leng, they just looked at each other without saying a word, both aware that their fists could do all the talking for them in a moment. Both teams took their positions, with Innu and Gary standing on one side, while the twins stood opposite them.

“Alright guys, you know the rules! Let’s get ready to RUUUMMBBLLLEEE!!!” The announcer started to match with a gong. It was then, that Gary had seen the familiar system greet him with a message.

[You have entered an honorable duel]

[Many people are watching, so don’t make a fool out of yourself.

Win the match!]

[Condition: Knock out or kill your opponents]

[Reward: 500 Exp]

[Failure: ???]

Considering how the two colour gang members today had only been worth 20 Exp each, it seemed like the match would be a hard one, but it was exactly the type of thing he needed.
