Screams filled the operating room.

  But the scientists in there just continue their autopsy with no regard to their subjects.

  The girl who can't move her limbs can only scream in pain as the scientists mercilessly cut her open.

  "This is fascinating, even with this much injury the body still tried to heal itself."

  The girl can feel the scientists rummaging her innards, the feels of the scalpel cutting her organs one by one.

  Most people would give up and die due to excessive pain shock but the girl refused to give up. The fire inside her refused to give up.

  "With this the first phase for the Project Hercules is a success."

  The scientists looking at each other congratuting themselves.

  "It's time for the next phase for the project."

  She just looks at the scientists as the huge cut on her chest slowly heals.

  She remembers all of them, each and every single one of them.

  I'll kill them, I'll kill them all.

  ***

  I woke up from my sleep and just stared at the ceiling.

  I picked up my phone.

  5 a.m.

  —Hah~ well time to get up I guess.

  As per routine I head to the shower to prepare for the day, then switch on the tv while I brew myself a nice cup of tea.

  [Good morning everyone for morning news I'm your host, Remy Fern. Last night a report of a shooting in an office building around Bolton Alley. The office building suspected to be the base of operation for Traiton Gang was attacked by an unknown assaint.

  New Eden Police Chief, Commissioner Song confirms that the attack was orchestrated by the same attacker that eliminated the Saito Cn."

  Hmm~ a nice cup of tea in the morning really calms my nerves.

  ***

  I'm currently walking toward the academy and I run into Yu Jin.

  "Morning!"

  Yu Jin turned towards me.

  "Ah Frene, good morning."

  I quickly moved towards Yu Jin.

  "Sorry about yesterday, I have to go for my part time job."

  "Ah don't worry about it, like I said you don't need to pay me back."

  "Don't worry next time I will make sure my schedule is open, then we can have a nice meal at Tony's."

  Both of us just walk slowly to the train station. If nothing happens we will reach the academy just in time.

  ***

  I look at my watch and we arrive exactly on time.

  Well it's a good thing that nothing happens.

  "Today we are going to learn various ws regarding Heroes' activities."

  The css is a bit boring, so I just turn my gaze towards my right.

  Amemiya Hime.

  How can I befriend her?

  She is someone with a tiny bit of family problems.

  Coming from a family of monster hunters, they were regarded as a hero.

  This put a strong pressure on Hime. She as the eldest child of the family has a responsibility to carry her family's legacy.

  That is why she refuses to have any friends, she believes that friends will only slow her down.

  How can I befriend her?

  I just spent the rest of my css thinking about various pns that I can use to get close to her.

  Ding~ Dong~

  Launch time.

  The best time to make friends.

  I can see Hime stand up and walk towards the cafeteria and begin to follow her.

  "Hey, Hime let's eat together."

  "No."

  And just like that I was rejected but if you think that is enough to make me give up, you're sorely mistaken.

  I just followed her quietly to the cafeteria.

  She queued up for the food I followed, she was looking for a seat I followed behind her like a shadow.

  "Can you stop following me, it's annoying."

  As Hime sits down, she says that to me.

  "I just want to have lunch, is that wrong?'

  "I didn't have a problem with that but why did you follow me?"

  "This is the only seat that is free."

  Hime looks around and sees the sits around us has been taken and the only open set left is in front of her.

  "Hah~ whatever, do what you want."

  Hime just ignored me and began to eat her food.

  Well for now I managed to make myself known to her.

  My pn is to stick to her for as much as possible like a shadow.

  I say it will take about a week or two for her to feel more comfortable with me.

  But I need to do more for her to trust me completely.

  ***

  [Hime's PoV]

  Since I was little all that I ever knew was to train to be the best.

  My father is the greatest swordsman and the strongest monster hunter that the world has ever seen.

  He trained me day and night, to be the best swordsman that will surpass him.

  So I don't have time to waste, it is my responsibility to succeed my father.

  I only focus on becoming the best, have the best grade and to be the strongest amongst my peers.

  Anything that will not help me grow is not important, that is why I refuse to have a friend.

  Whenever someone tries to get close to me I just ignore them and they will leave me alone. But...

  "Hey Hime let's go to the cafeteria, I heard they cook nice steak today."

  This beast girl refuses to leave me alone, no matter how much I ignore her.

  "Hime did you like to watch anime or py games?"

  "None, leave me alone."

  The more I ign

  ore her, the more persistent she became.

  In the end I just tolerate her walking around me.

  And I must admit, it's a bit less lonely whenever she is around.
