The Legacy System

Whoever might look at him, would think that he was some kind of homeless man, that had been starving for days, and finally had a chance to eat.

But the most surprising thing would be that he looked so skinny and unfed that you would think he couldn't eat much, but Eric was gobbling bread and cheese in big bites. ​​

He was like a hungry Goblin thinking only of his food at the moment. Eating like that, it didn't take long for him to finish everything he had bought.

Even licking his fingers at the end.

Now he didn't seem that skinny anymore, and a bit of color had returned to his skin. But if you would ask him, he would probably say that this was only 30% of what he could eat right now.

Too bad he didn't have more money, otherwise he would have already gone back to the grocery store once again.

Well, he would have to make do, with this at the moment. It would take a while for him to reach home, but he could wait right now.

With these thoughts in mind, he started walking towards his home. He couldn't wait to play a bit more with Tina today, and perhaps even Akira.

After the Body Tempering that he had, his vitality was around 9 times that of a normal person, only with this stat, he could take down at least 8 or 9 women in a bed war.

Not to mention his strength and stamina that had spiked up. Now he was no longer afraid of shaming himself.

These thoughts plastered an evil smirk on his face. If someone had a look at him right now, they would think he was a creepy bastard.

He didn't care though, he was focused on his own thoughts, and plans for how to torture Tina today. He needed money, so maybe he should start his plans earlier.

Takase's son would probably be his first client, he needed her on his side, after all, so he could control Tina better.

It didn't take long for him to reach his neighborhood and come close to his building. Right now he was walking down a dark alley, which was a short-cut towards his home.

Just as he had come in the middle of the way, he heard some big laughs, and a loud voice saying,

???:" You finally showed up b*tch, we have been waiting a long time here for you!

Now would you behave and give us what we want, or do you want us to make some practice on you first?"

Eric wasn't surprised by those words, he had seen these guys from even before taking this shortcut. He knew that Tina wouldn't just take all that humiliation lying down.

And with the upgrades his body went through, it was really easy for him to notice these guys waiting there in an ambush for him.

There were 7 guys in the group. They all looked around 20 years old, with tattoos and piercings. Which they thought made them look cool.

Perhaps they had trained a bit, but to be honest, they had spoiled their health and body, drinking and smoking.

So, while these numbers would have been more than enough for someone as weak as he was in the past, right now they looked like babies wanting a spanking from him.

But this reminded him of the fact that he still hadn't done the training for today. And while he could finish it quickly, it was really boring to train by himself.

So why not use this chance, and these guys as his training toys, ahem, training buddies he meant.

With this thought crossing his mind, an evil smirk appeared and disappeared in a moment, and he changed his expression to one of fear.

Seeing his face, the guys in front of him were laughing with each other, while their leader said,

???:" So what is your choice, p*ssy boy?"

Hearing that, Eric decided that he would train with this guy a bit more, he just hoped he didn't break too fast. Well, if Tina did her job well, he would have this kind of toys in big numbers.

But that was for later, right now he had to motivate his ambushers a bit. So without saying anything, he turned around and started running.

While he could run more than 7 times faster than a normal person, he kept his speed at 1.2, this way he wouldn't get caught, and at the same time, he wouldn't disappear from their sight.

Seeing him run, the 7 ambushers started laughing more at this scared little mouse and immediately ran after him.

At first, they were running at a joking speed, but seeing that they weren't able to approach him, quite on the contrary they were losing him, they started to run faster.

Soon they found out though, that no matter how much they increased their speed, they weren't able to reach him.

This clearly surprised all 7 of them. Wasn't this guy supposed to be a loser, a weak piece of sh*t that couldn't even break an egg?

How come he could run like this?

Not to mention, that the consequences of their drinking and smoking had started to show. They were having difficulty breathing normally right now.

And it had been only around 230 meters of running, it wasn't that much. Seeing this Eric was cursing at his bad luck, for these weak training toys, ahem, training buddies.

But there was nothing he could do, so in order to cheer them up a little, he started running in a slower tempo, and pretend to have trouble breathing.

Seeing and hearing his panting, the leader of the 7 ambushers, said in a loud voice to cheer his guys,

???:" Come on guys, he is getting tired. He is just a weak loser, as soon as he is caught, there is no salvation for him! Haahahah…"

The other guys seemed to have taken a bit of heart from these words, and started running a bit faster, so they could catch this sissy as fast as they could.

And they were truly approaching him, right now Eric was only in a one-meter lead in front of them. So their hopes were at the peak right now.

What nobody had noticed though, was that they were running towards a dead alley. It wasn't even 50 meters ahead of them and the alley finished.

Seeing this, the leader of the ambushers, suddenly slowed down considerably, and then grabbing his knees he started laughing like a mad man.

Surprised at the attitude of their leader, the others stopped too. They still didn't understand what was going on.

But it didn't take long for them to notice, that Eric had stopped too. And that right now he was facing them, while his back was against the wall. He seemed really tired.

Looking at this, the other ambushers also started laughing like madmen. Karma was truly a b*tch, he had tired them so much by running, but now he was trapped.

Stopping his laugh for a moment, the leader said with an evil grin,

???:" You know boys, a little mouse with his shoulders against the wall, is a good dead mouse."

Hearing his joke, the others started laughing even more.

Eric on the other hand was looking at their expressions in amusement, should he tell them that he had intentionally brought them here!?

But that would spoil the surprise, wouldn't it?

Right now he could totally understand that expression, ignorance is bliss.

So he just stayed there, with his back against the wall, looking at their happy, ignorant faces. When he was running his system must have already scanned their stats.

If only he could have his Spirit Power index at seven, he would be able to see their stats without concentrating on his sea of conscience.

But anyway he couldn't do that now, so he just waited there for them to get their breath back. While they laughed and joked, they were really tired by all this run.

So it took a while for them to get their breath back to normal, and be ready to deal with Eric. They could have tried to attack him directly, but seeing his run, they didn't want to take their chances.

That's why all the waiting, there was nowhere he could go and escape them anyway. So they started to approach him slowly.

With each step, their evil grin appeared more dangerous and disgusting. Approaching Eric in less than 5 steps, the leader said calmly,

???:" Was there any benefit to you for trying to run from us?

Now you have just made us angrier, and even more determined to make you feel pain. It's not like you are a Maso guy, is it?"

Hearing his words, Eric finally took away his frightened look, and changed it with an evil smirk, while he said,

Eric:" Nope, quite, on the contrary, I think of myself as a Sadist type! Let me show you what I mean."

With that said, he stretched his body, and running towards the side wall, he walked on the wall and made a more than 3 meters jump to end up behind them.

But this time he didn't run away, no he just turned around and was looking at them as a small bird looking at his food.

These changes in the situation stunned all the 7 ambushers, and especially their leader. They were unable to comprehend what was happening here right now.

That weak and sissy boy they were supposed to beat and take the video from, had turned into a f*cking Spider-Man all of a sudden and was about to prey on them.

Eric truly enjoyed their look at the moment. It was so funny.

But their stun turned into shock when he started to …
