Chapter 3. Conflict begin.

Hayate looked at the incoming Shinobi and knew their Identity by a glance which was truly rare and surprising but no one knew of that, Hayate had no intention of flaunting his knowledge and grab the attention of those rouge Shinobi's and was happy about the situation where he did not have to reveal his strength plus he had been wearing 2 bands each on both legs and arms, which was truly heavy for current him.

Lilly stood behind Haku completely dissolve in the environment where those Rouge Shinobi had no idea of her existence, which was due to her Illusion art she had mastered with Ken training regime. Along with Hayate's broad structure, she was able to completely lose sight of her presence from everyone's mind, but for Hayate, it was quite easy to feel her existence, which was due to his sense of smell was a lot sharper thanks to that weird system beating, which made his sense sharper as he is long as he fought inside it.

If that was not enough, he realized that he can even refresh his mind just by entering for some minutes, which he had used during the training to refresh his mind and was able to keep up with his sister progress, who was absolutely a monster like a genius to him without any system. But one day he realized that it stings when Ken called him a genius as he thought 'I am not a genius, I do hard work every night, to be able to get this.' and so Hayate realized that his sister had the similar burden like him because being a genius does not guaranty her success, it was her hard work that she got that strong.

Hayate looked at other guys and thought in a similar manner When Leo, Ria, and Hanam were standing in front of the group as they looked at Shinobi standing in front of them, Ria opened her scroll as several Kunai appeared in her hand.

Leo tightened the bandages in his hand while he looked at the Incoming Shinobi as fire burn inside his heart and eyes, Thinking he would be able to make an Impression on Lilly with his action now and would be able to steal her heart in the near future because he is never afraid of a fight, even in case for love too.

Hanam just smiled and tapped Leo shoulder for him to move as he saw Ria throwing her Kunai at the Rouge Shinobi group when they warded the attack and jumped in a different direction for distributing her aims and speed while Leo suddenly rushed as he disappears and reappear in front of one of the Shinobi, who felt an acute pain in his stomach as he remembered sent flying and the blurry world before he fainted while Hayate saw how far that Shinobi fall after that strong kick and was astonished since a robot in his dream had once knocked him in a similar manner.

Looking at Hanam not participating in battle two Shinobi consider him the weakest link or strategist type launched their attack at him when Hanam opened his eyes and two fast whips of his leg pressed their chakra points as they fall completely powerless and weak. Those kicks were precise and strong and Hayate remembers his opponent from the dream system with the same movement and ability to seal the chakra points.

The last one was pinned by the several Kunai on the tree, completely dead, Gen smiled and nodded as he tied the two remainings.

During this fight, Hayate realized that the opponent was playing on their hand since the beginning Rio just attacked to separate them, to begin with, while they performed their role very well and separated in a different direction, which opened Leo a way to attack a single opponent and given his Tai-Jutsu that guy was done for.

Gen looked at Hayato and smiled "What do you think."

Hayate looked at them and spoke, "They are good and their plan was the part of their strength."

"But the girl with kunai, get too far from the team which can be dangerous if she were to face a strong opponent, The front guy should try to stick to the team to increase the power of the team since many time opponent can be strong and he could join hand with the middle guy for a better combo. Plus among you guy's there is no strategist, well the kunai girl can play that part if she tries."

Hayate analysis was on the point so none of them retort, which made Hayate feel creepy since it showed that they will get stronger from this point on too. Gen nodded as he signals the others to listen and learn carefully with Lilly standing beside Hayate. They all moved when Rio came back and smiled as she shook Hayate hair "Smart kid huh! So why do you think, I was good for a strategic point."

Hayate pouted as he fixed his hair and spoke.

"It's quite easy since the other two are muscle head type, and given your strength, you can use your weapon as a diversion, and your personality during the fight was calm and analysis, I noticed it when you used shuriken and Kunai to divert them without any signal."

"Which meant by their body action, you knew what they were thinking and Implemented your attack."

Hayate spoke as he looked at Rio with interest since her Ninja art of scroll was really interesting for him.

Soon they reached the city gate where no bandit could be found which indicated that their arrival was anticipated by the group of the bandit and previous Shinobi involved in this case, which made its rank E- mission to rank D and C, according to the level of Sinobi they will face in the future fight, Gen was also ready for some actions as he looked at the faction of the city where several people were standing looking at them with the corner of their eyes while gossiping.

Lilly and Hayate also felt the tense atmosphere and no whatsoever experience in a fight like this where Chunnin and higher-level shinobi fight each other, Hayate was able to calm down, where Lilly was slightly anxious about the situation. Hayate smiled since her anxiousness was not due to fear but excitement.

Walking away they maintained a vigilant sense, as they walked toward the city lord mansion which was situated at the center of the city. Hayate looked at the city which looked much better than the one he had come out from, there was no thugs, criminal, drunken and other sign of lawlessness in the city alleys, with only a few orphans could be seen in some alley working for some hotels which could get them a stable income.

shaking his head in amusement Hayate looked at Lilly who had a same bitter expression, as they walked alongside the group, where Lilly and Rio chatted and Leo was talking to other guy's for challenge schedule which both of them ignored with no intention of fighting, especially Hayate since those 8 bands were really heavy.

Entering the mansion several people received them, while Five of them waited inside the next room and Gen entered to talk with Lord when the wooden door opened and 3 beautiful girls entered the room with a slight bow, Hanam nodded as three of them were Lord's favorite daughter, Lis, Rem and Sia.

It seems the lord is really in the bind since he sent his favorite daughters to attend us, but from the look of it they are little unwilling with the situation.' Hayate thought as he looked at Other's, Leo was as friendly as ever as he chatted with them, while Hanam seemed Ice cold as ever.

Lilly understood those girls feeling as she smiled and walked to them, with her presence they started to feel at ease and allowed Ria to open up to them too. Hayate shook at the growth of his sister and sat quietly and concentrated when Gen came inside and spoke.

"Hayate and Lilly, you guys protect city lord here in the mansion while four of us will go fight the main culprit behind the scene, first we need to find him, so I guess there will be no conflict this soon."

After the four of them left, Hayate jumped on the wall as he looked around with which he put his heart at ease, coming down Lilly asked. "Everything fine for now right."

Hayate nodded, "It seems so, but be careful after all it's our first mission as the Shinobi." with that they entered the room where Lis was brewing some tea, Sia and Rem became the best friend of Lilly as they chatted leaving Hayate alone who smiled bitterly but sat down.

"Here you go, Hayate- San." Lis serve him some tea, as she sat politely in front of him. Hayate smiled and looked at the teacup since he had no experience of drinking tea, which caught him in the dilemma.

Lis looked at Hayate response when Lilly said something in her ear, causing her to smile as she held her teacup and picked it in a gentle manner, while she rubbed her hand on the surface as she took a sip, Hayate caught up soon as he performed the same manner and etiquette like Lis in a second, as he always was a quick one to catch up, in these things.

Lis was surprised, but she kept her smile as usual as before, where Lilly smiled since she knew Lis was shocked since his brother was like this, to begin with, before she knew he would always catch up to her, no matter how much hard work she put, which was her motivation to move on.

Hayate felt something wrong as he looked out and saw no one out of the window when a simple gust made the curtain to fly in peace, and Hayate was sure that today was going to be a hard day for them.

On the other corner, a shadow came out as it looked at the guards around the mansion and a red glint passed his eyes.

Gen and the trio looked at the base which they find out to be the one they were chasing after, plus it was easy since the two hostages from before had already told them about this, and they had lied to Lilly and Hayate for their safety.
