On his way back, Vogue bought food at a local store. Ever since he got the system, his appetite had increased drastically. Before, one plate of food was enough. Now he needed five tis that amount just to feel full.
Paying 100 credits, Vogue left the restaurant and started heading ho while humming a tune.
He got to RustyGold street and the people there simply let him pass as he moved. The most dangerous street in the entire Third Ring and they could hardly do anything to a 16 year old boy.
He entered his building and took the elevator. When he ca out the elevator, Vogue was stunned to see his door opened and his face changed.
The mont he entered, he saw the fat landlady, Mrs Karen. She was shouting and spitting insults at his Clone, who sat on the bed ignoring her completely, lost in deep ditation.
Mrs Karen heard Vogue co in and her head whipped towards the doorway and she saw Vogue standing there.
Confusion spread across her face. Her eyes darted back and forth between Vogue at the door and the Clone on the bed. She looked between them so many tis that Vogue thought her waterlon-sized head might snap off her neck.
Her eyes suddenly widened as she seed to have co to a realization.
"That’s my cousin. He ca to visit." Levi quickly whipping up.
But Mrs Karen lips curled and her fat cheeks jiggled as she suddenly blood into a despicable smile that made Vogue’s skin crawl.
"I had no idea you have a twin brother. It’s my fault for barging into your personal space like this. I’m sorry. I’ll leave now."
Vogue’s expression grew even darker.
Three things told him this was bad news.
First, Mrs Karen never apologizes.
Secondly, when she visits her tenants for her house rent , she would at least take sothing as a form of paynt if the other party doesn’t have money. Either phones, clothes or shoes.
Thirdly, even if the world was ending, Mrs. Karen would never admit she was wrong.
This could only an one thing, she figured other has so kind of secret
She either wanted to hoard the information for herself and steal the secret or she would sell the information for a decent price.
With the amount of gangs in this neighborhood, there are lots of people who would wish to have so sort of opportunity and would pay good money for information.
Vogue original body hadn’t stayed In this hell hole district and survived by being stupid.
In that mont, Vogue stopped caring about the consequences. ’System, upgrade Basic Axe Technique and max it out!’

Vogue didn’t hesitate and imdiately activated Black Sun!
A heat wave surged through Vogue’s apartnt like a wildfire!
The fat lady – Mrs Karen was surprised at the outburst of strength. She didn’t think the weak Vogue who had always been bullied left and right was actually able to burst out with such crazy strength.
She quickly realized he had been hiding his power all along because he didn’t want anyone discovering his secrets. An evolved human actually able to create a clone without awakening could an several things and those several things ant riches to her.
The easiest explanation was that he was a Sun worshipper. Sun worshippers were mbers of evil cults who devoted their lives to serving Radiants. They worshipped Radiants like gods in exchange for receiving a fraction of their power.
Imagine a human who could use the Sun energy to grow stronger, evolve and even heal injuries. That’s who they hope to beco and with intelligent Radiants with mystical abilities out there making it possible, these cults only increase over the years.
But Mrs Karen dismissed it. Judging by Vogue’s aura, she figured he probably isn’t a Sun worshipper. It could be an Inheritance, a Bloodline, or even a True protagonist secret.
Either way, she could seek this information for a good price. As for hoarding whatever it is for herself, she knew her limit. As the saying goes, if the treasure is too hot, the holder would likely burn to death.
But no matter how broken Vogue is, he can never hop to bridge the gap between Evolved and Stellar knights!
Mrs. Karen laughed coldly. "Now that I know you have a secret, you actually want to kill ? , a Stellar Knight? Even if I only got an F rank rating, I still survived the Olympic Trial! Do you think I’m trash?"
Mrs Karen growled and she suddenly took a step forward and vanished. Her speed was so fast that the air shrieked and a shock wave blasted through the entire apartnt, scattering all of Vogue’s things all over the place.
The next millisecond, she appeared shoulder to shoulder with Vogue who was still moving in slow motion and spoke directly to his ears.
"10 percent of is a hundred percent of you!"
With a smirk, she took another step and blurred into motion again.
"Did I say you could leave?"
Vogue’s angry voice roared through the apartnt. Mrs. Karen felt an imnse force yank her backward.
Without even looking, Vogue had stretched his hand to the right and grabbed her long hair in the middle of her flash-step! Her blurred figure imdiately snapped back into existence as she appeared side by side with Vogue, her face filled with shock.
An enormous amount of force suddenly yanked her backwards, making her body tear through sound barrier as she was forcefully thrown backward with an imnse force despite her 200 pounds of weight!
Mid-air, a crimson fist collided with her moving body.
"Bang!"
A massive explosion ripped through the entire apartnt, rocking the building itself.
