The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 62: Divine Justice.

"Haru, can you do a favour for me." Mrs, Jiang asked as Suyin went upstairs to straighten her hair. "Sure what is it?" Haru asked not really minding her asking. "We just ran out of milk would you mind going to the store for me?" She asked.

It's not like he had anything to do and Suyin would be at least half an hour so he figured why not. "Sure, Is there any type of milk you usually get?" He asked taking into account of her preference. "Yeah, Um, The semi skimmed milk please." She said and then handed him some money.

"It's fine, I don't need money it's on me you can take it as a fee for that wonderful breakfast. And of course. Semi skimmed milk If you asked for anything else I would have considered burning your house down." Haru and Mrs Jiang both laughed at his joke.

"I probably would have helped you. I don't know how anyone can drink other types of milk. I swear they have something wrong with them." Haru chuckled in agreement and then walked to the front door. He opened the door before putting on his shoes. It sure was a nice day.

As he stepped outside he felt the sun beam down on him and then walked toward the store. It was a good thing that he was a cultivator now. This amount of heat would be enough to make anyone else sweat withing minutes of standing outside. The air tasted dry and there was a slight scent of rain.

"The calm before the storm," Haru muttered to himself as he walked along the pavement. He hardly saw any other person as he walked the half mile to the convenience store It was one of those days. The days that are so hot that people decide to stay inside and avoid the blistering heat only to regret it the next day when it rains like there is no tomorrow.

He made his way to the store and noticed the difference as soon as he stepped inside. The air conditioning blasted him in the face as a little beep sounded out alerting the owner that someone had entered. Haru walked over to the drinks section and picked up the bottle of milk that Mrs Jiang wanted and then looked for something else.

It took him a few minutes but he finally found his favourite beverage. Grapefruit sparkling water. Suyin was the one who introduced them to him so he picked up one for her as well and then walked to the counter to pay.

"Haru? I haven't seen you for a while. Are you still with Suyin? I haven't seen her around here for a while. Although I did see a little Chen about an hour ago." The owner of the store always seemed over familiar with everyone but that was just her personality. She seemed to know everything that was happening because she forced friendships with everyone who came into her store."

"Yeah, Suyin and I are still together we have just been busy with school stuff. We just finished our exams." He told her. "Oh, that's right. I think my grandson just took his final exams too. I didn't realise they had already finished." She thought for a moment. "So what are you doing now? Are you heading off to university this year?" She asked. And handed him a bag with the drinks inside.

"Yeah. I think I will. It all depends on my results. We don't get them until the end of the month so I guess I will just have to wait and see. You said you saw Chen? I should probably get him a drink too. Do you know which way he went?" Haru changed the subject so he could leave without being interviewed anymore.

He walked back over to the drink section and picked up a fruit juice, Paid for it and then left without any more questions. "She pointed over to the park and told Haru that was the last place she saw him. He figured he would probably be out playing with his friends all day so he might as well drop by and bring him a drink to make sure he didn't get heat stroke or something.

He crossed the street and walked up to the entrance of the park and saw a bunch of kids playing on the climbing frame. He looked closer and saw Chen hanging to the bottom bar. It was easy to locate him because his red hair stood out. He looked closer and saw that the kid above him with blonde hair had his foot on his head. What is he doing? Haru thought to himself as he carried on watching.

He stayed there and looked on from the gate of the park he didn't want to interrupt them if they were playing some kind of game. He still watched carefully so he wouldn't miss anything. That was when he saw that something was wrong. The kid stomped down on Chen's head.

Chen's head shook as his foot made contact with it. "Oh, This little bastard. He is going to get it now." Haru said to himself and carried on watching from the sideline hoping that Chen would fight back. But he didn't

He just kept looking up at the boy kicking him. Then he changed from his head to try to push him off. Chen then moved suddenly as the boy stomped down as hard as he could. "Okay, you little shit. It's over now. You've had your fun." Haru said quietly as he thought about pushing him from the climbing frame. He managed to restrain himself but began to walk over.

The boy screamed and then hit the floor like a sack of potatoes. He started to groan in pain. Haru could hear it from where he stood. "Ha, It serves you right! This is divine justice." Haru said as he watched the whole thing happen. The boy's head began to poor blood and there wasn't any sign of it stopping. "Shit, I should probably do something about this."

He ran over immediately as the boy with brown hair jumped down and began to scream. "Wake up Scotty! I will go get your dad!" He ran out of the park followed by the other boys. Chen was left alone looking down at him. He didn't know what to do. He climbed down and then stood over him.

Scotty began to make gasping sounds as he was struggling to breathe. The only thing running through Chen's mind was "I have to run away. This was my fault." He blamed himself over and over as he looked down at him until he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Hey, little guy. Do me a favour and look away please." Haru smiled at him. Chen covered his eyes and looked away immediately. He couldn't look away before from the guilt he felt but Haru being nearby calmed his mind. Haru bent down and used his spiritual sense.

"Oh, Damn. God must really hate this kid." Haru whispered as he inspected his injuries. He had a fractured cranium and his brain had begun to bleed. Jake wasn't here so he couldn't heal the wound but he did have an Idea.

He remembered the day three years ago when he learned how to use the law of time. He hadn't used it since but it seemed to call out to him. It was like it had a consciousness that was guiding him toward using it. He then held his hand over the kids head.

He didn't feel anything at first but a small warp in the air in front of his hand gave him the verification that it was working. The blood quickly went back inside his head and his skull had gone back to the state it was in before he had fallen.

It was like nothing had happened. But Haru couldn't pull his hand away. The law of time was too powerful and was not letting him release his hand. He used all of his strength and dug his feet into the ground and then stood up.

The concrete beneath him cracked before his hand finally came loose from its position. Haru fell onto his back from the sudden release. "Ouch..." He said instinctively even though he felt no pain.

He stood back up and then looked down at the boy he had just saved. He inspected the injuries again. "I have done a pretty good job if I do say so myself." He bragged before being interrupted by the voice of a screaming woman.

"Oh, My baby boy! What has happened to you!?" A woman who looked to be in her early thirties ran over and knelt down beside the boy. Her hair was obviously dyed and it had long yellow streaks beneath the top layer. Is this the new style? Haru wondered before she looked up at him with disgust.

"Did you do this!? Did you hurt my son!" She screamed at Haru. Haru was unfazed. He scratched his neck. "Whoa, Calm down you crazy lady. He fell. I witnessed it all from back there." He pointed to the main entrance. She looked back at the boy with brown hair.

"Fai. Is that right!?" She shouted at him. The boy nearly jumped out of his skin as she shouted his name. "No that's not true. It was Chen! Chen pushed him and he hit his head!" He pointed at Chen.
