Being a mutant does not make soone inhuman. While they end up obtaining incredible abilities that are beyond the scope of a human capabilities, they still act and function like a human would.
And this was the exact reason why, despite being a mutant, Jas was inside a bar. He was drinking, trying to calm himself down.
Even though it has already been a day since it happened, he just could not forget about it.
Every ti that he rembered and thought about it, he felt his entire body trembling, which made him extrely uncomfortable.
So today, even though he had already stopped drinking quite a while back, he had no choice but to do it again. He felt, only by being drunk, would he be able to at least calm his nerves down.
While drinking, he could not help but think, what could be Michael’s origin? Was he really just an ordinary kid, who had so luck, and got so wealth?
Ever since he left Michael’s villa, he had not gone back to the organization. Of course, nobody knew that he had already failed the task given to him.
But at the end of the day, he would still need to go back and report. But before then, he would have to plan how he was going to deal with the consequences of failing.
First of all, of course, he would have to look for the client. He would have to make sure that that guy paid for the trouble that he had undergone.
Why did he reveal just part of the information, while hiding the other? Or, why was it that he did not investigate clearly, before understanding who it was that they were dealing with?
And the price that he had paid, it was sufficient to be able to mobilize a mutant, but it was not enough to allow a mutant to face such a risk.
He was lucky that he had been able to escape. And, that kid, he probably thought that he had the ability to control his actions.
But until today, ever since he left there, he had been thinking about betraying Michael, but no matter how much he thought about it, nothing had happened to him at all.
Therefore, he believed, this was just a plan that Michael was using to threaten him. It was to ensure that whatever had happened in there was not revealed.
While he was engrossed in drinking while trying to think of a possible explanation of why Michael was a mutant, and there was another mutant around him, and both of them were extrely strong, he did not notice soone approaching.
Despite being a mutant, he just gained an ability of the pressure bullet, not like his other senses were enhanced.
If not for the fact that he was drinking low alcohol content drinks, he would have already been drunk by now, instead of just filling his stomach with liquid.
It was only when soone grabbed his shoulder that Jas reacted. Initially, he wanted to strike, but when he realized who it was, he managed to stop himself.
It might be true that he had not received any physical enhancent after taking the mutation serum, but before he took the serum, he was already a good fighter.
So, handling normal people was not much of a problem, even if he decided not to depend on his ability.
"Hey, I told you to stop sneaking around. You know, I could have attacked you right now, then who would you have blad?" Jas said, addressing the newcor, his voice tinged with dissatisfaction.
"Don’t worry, if you hurt , then you will just have to compensate . But before we reach that point, I’m pretty sure that you don’t have the ability to harm ." The newcor responded nonchalantly as he sat next to Jas.
The newcor was a man with a bald head and brown eyes, had a dium build, with the most striking feature being his elongated nose. It was a little longer than normal.
Currently, he was wearing a black leather jacket on top of a brown t-shirt, matched with a pair of black jeans and white sneakers.
As for Jas, he was dressed casually, an unbuttoned red-stripped white shirt that revealed the white vest that he was wearing inside, and a pair of black khaki trousers, with black sports shoes.
This bald-headed guy was called Oliver, a friend that Jas had made after he joined the death shadow organization.
The day that Jas joined this organization, there were no mutants at that ti. At least, Oliver was not one of them.
The two of them ford a friendship, to the extent that when so missions required several people to take them, they would take them together.
And on the day that they were supposed to take the serums, both of them decisively took the chance given to them.
Since both of them had completed nurous tasks, and had made quite a lot of contributions to the organization, they were both given grade A mutation serums.
And after taking them, they were both lucky to be able to survive, and awaken combat-related abilities. Jas’s ability was pressure bullet, while Oliver’s was acceleration drive.
This ability that Oliver got allowed him to be able to complete more missions as compared to Jas. After all, this ability that Oliver possessed allowed him to be able to move at an incredible speed within 5 seconds.
Even though the maximum distance that he could cover within those five seconds before the deactivation of the ability was only 300 m, it was very crucial during the assassination missions.
Most of the ti, the target would only need to be 10 or 20 ters away, which allowed the assassin to take care of them.
And the ability that Oliver got allowed him to be able to move at incredible speeds in a maximum distance of 300 ters.
This allowed him to be able to attack, and make a run for it, in a situation where the target was heavily protected by bodyguards or other security personnel.
This was sothing that made Jas envy him, but that did not diminish the friendship between them.
"So, what did you call here for? Have you already completed the mission, or are you planning to get it done tomorrow?" While grabbing a bottle of alcohol from the table, Oliver asked.
Bang!
"You won’t believe it, but I actually failed. The information that was provided was completely false. I wasn’t going to deal with an ordinary person, instead, it was a mutant. And not one, but two of them!" Jas responded in an angry voice, as he slamd the bottle on the table.
Oliver was surprised when he heard this. But then again, he revealed a faint smile as he said, "I told you before. The price that that old guy was willing to pay, it was suspicious. But you never wanted to listen to .
But, since you are here, I believe that the strength of those mutants is not that high. Did they escape?"
Jas gave Oliver a death stare, before he finally said, "They escaped? Are you crazy? I am lucky to be here right now. So, you can say that I am the one who escaped."
Oliver was shocked by Jas’s response, as he looked at him, trying to see if Jas was joking. But looking at his expression, it seed that it was serious.
"Are you kidding ? Don’t tell that you went to attack soone from the silent order syndicate? While we are stronger than the two syndicates, it is not sothing that one of us can deal with." Oliver asked in a doubtful tone.
"Do you think I have the ti to joke? I don’t know what kind of relationship this kid has with the silent order syndicate, but definitely, he is not in good terms with them.
Yesterday, when I went to strike, I found that one of the mutants from the silent order syndicate was there.
And you cannot believe it, I found that he was beaten up, and was even killed in front of my own eyes. And that third in command of the silent order syndicate, he had one of his legs broken.
As for if he was eventually killed or not, I’m not sure, because I left before seeing what fate he ended up suffering.
Simply put, I was the one that was in danger, and could not handle them." Jas shook his head as he responded.
Oliver was silent for quite a long while, as he took several sips of alcohol from the bottle in his hand.
Finally, he asked, "Then, what really happened? From the way that I see you, it seems that you have not suffered any kind of injury. Did they just let you go? I don’t believe that you have the capability of running away, unless you observed things from a distance."
"Of course, I went there. But, just after I entered, I found that the mutant from the silent order syndicate had already been beaten up. How could I even attempt to attack?
I just ca up with an excuse, but it did not work. Then, I attemp- Aaah!" Jas was giving the details of what had happened, when suddenly, he grabbed his head mid-sentence as he scread in agony.
At this mont, his eyes widened in disbelief, as the trendous pain that I was feeling made him rember what Michael had told him. At the sa ti, questions began appearing in his mind, completely ignoring Oliver who was asking him what was going on.
