Melon Man inside God's City

Its 5:30 in the morning and Owen is sound asleep wherein Alex is just humming the darkness. The silence in their room broke when Alex's phone rang. Owen move a bit closer to the phone and check who it was, it was Quinn.

Owen clicked answer and talk,

"What the hell do you want?" Owen asked

"Judging from that voice I guess Alex isn't around." Quinn said

"Scientifically speaking, he is. Why the fuck are you calling this early in the morning?" Owen asked just after he yawned

"To be a great hunter, you have to wake up early to hunt! So stand up there and get your ass in here, I'm gonna send you the coordinates." Quinn said then hung up

"Fuck...You take over, you need more training than I do"

Owen sigh as their minds once again switched over. Alex pick a black jacket and black jeans for todays training with Quinn, he decided that knowing what skills Quinn has, he has to be flexible.

A few seconds of thinking he remembered that he needs a backup weapon just in case his enemy needs more than 1%. He looks around his bag but he doesn't have any knife or dagger in it.

"I must've forgotten it in my flat..."

Alex let out a huge sigh and decided to bring a string-bag containing chewing gums and healing pills it even has a reusable smokescreen.

He opened the door and was surprise seeing Danica falling because of her leaning on the door. She fell on Alex's chest and quickly stood up.

"I'm sorry I just wanted to observe you two!!!" Danica said

"Uh no worries, uhm may I ask do you have some combat knife or anything that could be use as a backup?" Alex asked

"Dude, she's a researcher, do you think she'll have anything like that." Owen said

As soon as Owen stopped talking, Danica pulled out a dog collar looking object from her pockets.

"Wear this and your physical strength would double!" Danica said handing over the object

"Oh warning though, that model is not yet tested." Danica run off going back to her room

Alex gulped thinking what he should do with the thing but just decided to wear it when time comes.

He looked for Matsumoto downstairs but he still seems to be asleep so he just went out. He opened Quinn's message to know where his location is and is surprise to see the coordinates.

'God's city!!!!'

"Is that place scary???" Owen asked

"Well, it is enough for the top 10 to the rest of hunters in the world to make themselves pee their pants, but right now getting there is our priority, we should not panic if a dude holding a melon come at us." Alex said

They head off and after 30 minutes of traveling in a taxi they've finally arrived at the gates of God's city.

Rumors has it that once you've beaten every monster in this place within four hours, you'll be chosen to become their god for the next day and it is something every hunter wants considering how strong and agile the monster in there is. Although not even one hunter Is capable of completing that task due to the fact that 10 monster resurrects every 30 minutes.

'This gate is shiny.'

Knowing that monsters from the inside are smart, Alex decided to just jump through the walls and use the ignition of his flames to push himself higher.

He has gotten in but a monster holding a melon is already aware of his plan. Before Alex could even jump to the balcony of a nearby structure, the monster through the melon at him so hard that it made him cough some blood.

"Bloody hell!" Owen said trying to switch over but Alex doesn't want to

"Fuck Alex! Lets just freeze that dude!" Owen shouted

"Nah, this guy is worth some cash!"

Alex opened his hand igniting it with 1% and starts moving around aimlessly hoping that the monster wont find a pattern in his moves.

His fire only burned an inch of the monster's skin proving it to be useless.

"Dude! The dog collar!"

"This is not an emergency!"

Alex jump forward raising his right leg high up and release an axe kick but instead of damaging to monster, he just ended up hurting himself.

Alex held back his pain and jump back a bit.

'His build is so tough, not even a 100 years old tree could be like that!'

"Alex, I'm telling you we have to use the collar!" Owen said but Alex insisted not to

Alex raised both his arm and lowered his upper body, He charged forward unleashing tiny bits of fire while doing some mixed martial arts movement that he learned back in his P.E. classes.

The strategy may have worked a bit cause it put the monster on to the defensive and Alex move way quicker now igniting and losing the fire so many times.

"AHHHH!!!"

Now on the monster's blind spot, Alex put his right hand on the back of the monsters head.

"Von Voyage..."

Alex ignited the monster's head making tons of liquid gush out of it staining the white t-shirt Alex is wearing under the tracksuit.

"Luckily, I haven't taken a bath yet..."

Alex and Owen let out a huge sigh and now proceeded in their journey on going to Quinn's coordinates.

Three minutes of running around and they seemed to have reached their destination, A castle made out of ice looking material but it isn't cold and it isn't hot either.

'How is this thing keeping its temperature normal?'

"You know magic dude?"

As they enter they can see Quinn reading a book on a couch that has several scratches.

"WHAT THE FUCK TOOK YOU SO LONG???!!"

"I have to deal with a monster."

"Just one?" Quinn asked

"Yea.."

"You fucking weak bastard, if it took you that long then the secret lair we were about to enter might even kill you!"
