The Human Giant

Yoze was watching two ants fighting each other to the death while he waited for Jewel and his father to complete their travel papers inside the city walls behind him.

He couldn't help but smile as they were soon going to arrive at New Swampscott City. They just needed to cross the mini-city of New Swamp. It wasn't a city but an extremely enormous town that had more than 100 thousand inhabitants.

New Swamp town directly bordered New Swampscott city so it was highly developed. It was nearly impossible to not think that New Swamp was a city and often people mixed up the two.

The town and city were so integrated that someone couldn't enter New Swampscott City without showing evidence that they had first gone through New Swamp Town. It was a pain in the butt for frequent travelers but gave the city more control over its territory.

That town that was a mini city was where Yoze and his group were now passing through and getting their traveling papers completed. As for why Yoze was all alone watching ants fight to the death was because he wasn't allowed to enter without a stringent check-up.

This check-up was so strict that Jewel had never heard many of the measures that they wanted to do on him. So Yoze was forced to wait outside until the people who were assigned to check up on him arrived.

"Just a little bit longer than we will arrive at New Swampscott city. After that, I can have some time to focus on breaking through. I have already reached the limit of all my techniques." Yoze said, mumbling to himself.

It had been nearly three months since he had left Jade City and during this short period, he had grown extremely fast. So fast to the point he didn't know how strong he was.

He knew that he could destroy his previous self with his normal body weight alone. When Yoze thought about combining his over 1700 pounds of weight with the absurd physical abilities he gained from his demon spiritual body talents alongside his Blood Twin Fists were at 200 percent, he felt a shiver run through his heart.

" I could fight against a top Blood Master right? "

Even though Yoze was confident in his strength he didn't want his confidence to cloud his judgment. He had met only one Blood Master-level person and that was Blood Master Scarlett. But they never fought so he couldn't verify the claim that he was stronger than her or the mysterious Blood Master Steel.

"Who is the one that is intimidating my guards!" A harsh roar stunned the two ants that were fighting to the death. Afterward, they ran away after giving each other a nod to continue at a later date.

"Poor guy, he should have known better to threaten guards." Yoze thought to himself and looked to see the troubled dude.

A strong scent of blood and iron reached his nose when Yoze saw a middle-aged angry man covered in medals walking out of the town's gate. His eyes immediately shifted to a group of people who had tattoos written all over their bodies.

"You three dare show your faces around here, forcing your way inside!" The middle-aged man's face turned red as a red fog leaked out of his body.

The three tattooed people called out by the middle-aged man, faces turned pale from fear as they tried to explain themselves.

"Army Commander Josh, we have no idea what your subordinates told you. Our gang leader just wanted to inform the town that the North road to New Swampscott city is being blocked by a new gang that calls itself the Radients."

"Blocked!" Yoze's pupils shrunk as he heard the tattooed man's news.

"Block, who has the gall to block our access to the city?" Hearing the news, the Army Commander's anger evaporated before his eyes shined with realization.

"That new sect is getting too big to contain themselves huh?"

Seemingly understanding the situation, the army commander left with frustration and a visible malicious intent. With his departure, everyone let out a breath of relief as the pressure coming from the Army Commander was immense.

"Is it true that a new gang is blocking the road to New Swampscott city?" Yoze walked towards the tattooed people and asked.

"Who the hell do you think you are to ask?" As if they were pissed by getting yelled at, they lashed out at Yoze.

However, he didn't take it to heart as he wanted to get a clear answer. If the road was blocked then how was he supposed to take his father to the city and fulfill his wish to see his children?

"Please, I'll pay you if you answer my questions." Yoze pulled out the pouch he carried his money in and took out 20 copper coins. ｂ𝚎ｄｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎ｌ.𝚌𝚘ｍ

Seeing Yoze pull out so much money without hesitation seemed to have convinced them as one of them took the twenty coins and started talking.

"Yes, the main road to New Swampscott city is blocked by the new gang. But that doesn't mean that it's impossible to get to the city by taking a week or two week-long detours taking the side roads."

"A week? Do you have any idea of how long it is going to take for the city's military to unblock it?" Yoze asked as he felt a pinch when he heard that if they took the detours it would cost at least a week of his father's life.

Before the tattooed man could respond to his question his mouth was covered by a tattooed lady who gestured for Yoze to pay up.

"Fine, take it." Not in the mood to negotiate with these people, Yoze handed them another 20 coins.

"Let's say it will take about a few days for the city to respond and deal with this ruthless gang but they won't open it up for the public for a while to make sure they eradicated every last one of the gang members who have stepped out of line."
