Chapter 135

135 Weakness

A few minutes after they left the alley, Raphael, Bane, and Devon made it back to the dormitory.

“Ahh... I’m so exhausted.” Bane exclaimed, and then fell on the couch.

Devon stared at Bane, who was laying on the couch, and said, “Aren’t you going to go prepare, the tournament starts in two days.”

Bane shook his head.

“I know.” He replied. “But, I’m not some robot or toy, I need to rest for a while, or I might as well just collapse during the tournament.”

Devon wanted to retort to what Bane had just said, but instead, he let out a yawn.

“You see, even you’re exhausted. Man, go have some rest, we will get into action later.” Bane said.

“Do you know that over one hundred thousand people die a year from stress? I want to avoid being one of them, so I will do what I can do, and relax.”

This time around, Devon was left speechless from what he had just heard. Bane wasn’t bluffing by the number of death that occur due to stress, and it was what shocked Devon the most.

.....

“Alright, man, do what you want to do. I’m also going to go for an hour’s break before I start making my research.” Devon said.

“What about you, Raphael?”

Raphael had just walked out of the kitchen when Devon spoke.

He raised an eyebrow, wondering what Devon was talking about. And as Devon saw the dumbfounded look on Raphael’s face, he repeated his earlier question.

“Are you going to relax, or will you start preparing for the tournament?” Devon inquired.

Raphael pondered for a bit before he responded.

Should he say that he already had a record of some of the top metahumans in the first-year divisions already? Raphael shook his head, dismissing it.

“I will make preparations, later, there are some things I must take care of first.” He said.

Devon nodded his head, he gave Raphael a thumbs up, and turned towards Bane, who was now snoring on the couch.

With a smile on his face, Devon headed to his room.

He had, however, only taken a few steps forward when the room door was open.

Devon looked at Aiden, who just barged into the room, and was about to speak when he saw someone walking behind him.

“Look at what I have here,” Aiden’s voice rang out as soon as he entered the room.

In his hand was a book, and as he tapped Bane multiple times on the shoulder, he placed the book on the table that was in the middle of the living room.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Bane’s eyes twitched, and he opened an eye, “What the hell do you think you’re doing?!”

“Get up, asswipe! I have, in there, the names and abilities of the people we will be up against.” Said Aiden.

Bane had vowed earlier that nothing was going to make him leave where he was, but the instant he heard Aiden, he leaped from the couch immediately.

Rushing towards the book that was on the table, a smile formed on Bane’s face when he saw the content they were in the book.

“Where did you get this from?”

“You have a spy in the seven divisions, right?”

Bane couldn’t help but ask as he opened the pages of the book.

What caused Bane to be shocked was apart from the names and powers of the students in the divisions written in the book, they were also strengths and weaknesses there too.

The book was a full database of the information of the students in the division. There was of course no family-related information there, but all other aspects were in the book.

Whether it was friends, foes, age, powers and abilities, strength as well as weakness. This data and many others were included in the book in front of Bane.

‘This is really remarkable, Aiden.’

If Devon was able to speak, those were the words that would have left his mouth, but as he couldn’t, he tapped Aiden’s shoulder and gave him a light smile.

“Damn! I’m impressed, I would have needed to go to the black stores, to fetch this, but you have outdone yourself here, Aiden. I’m proud of you.” Bane blurted.

Elisa stood in front of the door, staring at Bane, Aiden, and Devon as they went through the book.

Suddenly, Bane’s voice rang out.

“Hee! Raphael, look, your records are here.”

Raphael lowered the cup that was in his hand when he heard Bane.

He stared at Bane, and then at the book.

A chuckle escaped Aiden’s lips, “This is really crazy, Raphael. Your powers, movement skills, most frequently used skills, even your strengths and weakness are always here.” Aiden said.

“Raphael, it says here that one of your weaknesses is...” Bane read out loud, however, almost about to finish his words, he paused.

“Big buttocks!”

Bane burst into laughter after those words came out of his mouth.

Raphael raised an eyebrow, and so did Elisa, who was standing a few meters away. He then walked towards the table and looked into the book.

“There are a lot of things said about you here, but that’s really the funny one. And it’s not like they are wrong, Elisa...”

Before Bane could complete his words, he received an intense glare from Elisa. It seemed to be like she was going to pounce at him any moment from now.

Bane flashed a rough smile and then kept quiet.

“While his attack is top-notch, his defense and speed are his weakest area.” Raphael read what was written about him in the book.

He turned towards Gus, who was also staring at the book and said, “Someone actually said, my defense and speed is my weakest area. What do you have to say about that?”

A hiss escaped Gus’s mouth after Raphael spoke.

“I know right,” Raphael replied.

Bane, Aiden, and Devon had witnessed Raphael and Gus’s discussion a lot of times, so they didn’t find the scene weird.

“Look, it’s that damn, Jeremy!” Bane pointed his hand at the book.

A deep frown appeared on Devon and Aiden’s from the mention of that name.

They moved closer to the book, and read the content about Jeremy line by line.

Meanwhile, as Raphael moved away from the table, Elisa walked towards him.

“You know this weakness that you have, we can work on it, and ensure it doesn’t get in the way. They will be people looking to use it against you, how about I prepare you for the challenges.”

Elisa whispered to Raphael, as well as sticking her body really close to him.

Raphael’s lips curved inwardly, “Oh, really.” He said.

Elisa nodded her head and rubbed her hand across his chest. She then walked towards his room, as she got to the door, she paused and turned towards Raphael.

“We have been through a lot these past few days, the least I can do is help you get rid of this weakness you have.”

With that said, and Elisa walked into the room.

Whether it was intentional or not, Elisa’s large buttocks bounced with each of her movements as she went into the room.

Raphael gently placed Gus on the chair close to him and walked toward his room.

A hiss came from Gus, seeing Raphael going into the room, and in response, Raphael spoke.

“Same to you, Gus!”
