Chapter 231

After his daily after school date with Sayaka, Oliver went home . The moment he entered his house he felt something was wrong . Oliver"s body tensed up a bit, as he slowly moved forward . He didn"t call his mom or dad, since it was already weird that they weren"t here to greet him . Oliver wanted to call someone for help, but the moment he stepped into his house he knew that if he tried to leave something bad would happen .

So instead Oliver moved in a different manner and quickly went into his room to pick up the sword given to him by his master Ken . The moment he got his weapon he felt a chilling sensation from behind him . He quickly dodged and a spear of black appeared before him . Oliver turned his head, and saw a man clad in all black and wore a mask to hide his face .

The moment Oliver saw that mask he remembered one of the men in his dreams . The way he fought was eerily similar . The spear the black armor he clad himself in, were all nano machines that he made into a weapon . The ultimate spear that could pierce through anything the ultimate s.h.i.+eld that could withstand anything . That"s how this man described his masterpiece .

Oliver didn"t talk since there was no time, he charged forward . Specter who saw Oliver foolishly charging towards him, tried to pierce him, but Oliver evaded by side stepping to the right . Specter then moved his spear into a slas.h.i.+ng motion to hit Oliver to the right . Yet once again, Oliver as if antic.i.p.ating this move was able to evade by ducking . Specter then tried to slam the spear downward, but Oliver blocked it with his sword, and pushed the spear upward making Specter lose balance .

This moment gave Oliver the chance to dash forward and used his sword to pierce into Specter"s armor . Specter who saw what Oliver was about to do, didn"t bother since he fully believed that no matter what Oliver did his armor could withstand it . Yet once again Oliver did something surprising as he switched the way he held his sword .

So now instead of the blade pointing at Specter it was the hilt of the sword pointing towards Specter . Oliver pounded the hilt onto Specter"s armor, he did it in quick succession . Even though the armor wasn"t destroyed and the attack couldn"t have bypa.s.sed the armor . Specter still felt like the attack Oliver was using was actually hurting him .

Specter then pushed Oliver by kicking him away . Unlike before when Specter knew Oliver as James Bourne, this version of him had much more muscle that hitting him actually hurt a bit . Oliver then s.h.i.+fted his stance, in which Specter responded by attacking in quick succession .

Oliver who somehow knew how Specter would attack was able to easily avoid all of the incoming attacks . It was at one moment when Oliver saw an opening that he knew would come . He seeing this opening dashed forward and was able to get so close to Specter that he could practically hear him breathing . His sword was now by Specter"s neck that was the most defenseless spot, was actually seized by Oliver . This was a feat that not even Dan, Carlo, and Ryu could accomplish, but Oliver did .

The only reason he was able to do this was because he knew in advance how Specter would move . As he pointed his blade by Specter"s neck he couldn"t help but smile and blurted out the words .

"You need more training Raphael . " When Oliver blurted out his real name, and even said the lines only James Bourne would say, Specter couldn"t help but tremble .

"Do you remember me, James?" When Specter asked this question, Oliver finally snapped out of his dazed state .

"Huh, I don"t know who you are . Tell me what have you done to my parents?!" When Oliver asked this question he heard someone clapping from behind him . He needed to evade, he had no chance in taking Specter as a hostage . Oliver with all these information in hand then made a snap decision and evaded, distancing himself from Specter and the person who clapped .

When Oliver looked at who was clapping he was surprise to see that it was his Dad .

"That was a nice fight Oliver . Still you two are going at it so seriously . " Seeing his dad"s perpetual smiling face, got Oliver confused . What the h.e.l.l was happening here!

"Dad who the h.e.l.l is that! Also why the h.e.l.l did he attack me?!" Oliver glared at the mask man, who stood there without saying anything .

"Huh? Don"t you remember Oliver? That"s your childhood friend Raphael . You use to call him Raphy . He didn"t attack you, that"s just how the two of you greeted each other . Well I guess the level has increase since when you were smaller you two used your fist . Now Raphael uses nano machines and you use a sword isn"t that great . The two of you have really grown up . "

"The h.e.l.l Dad! That"s not normal . Who the h.e.l.l just gets nano machines . I"m sure that tech isn"t even known to the public . Childhood friend? Is dad for real?"

Phil who was looking at Oliver could pretty much guess what he was thinking .

"Don"t you remember him Oliver?" When Oliver heard his dad"s question he looked at Specter, and felt something familiar from him . He knows he saw him in a dream once or twice, but was that because he actually knew him . Oliver who wasn"t sure simple shook his head .

"I see, I guess the trauma you received when you were kidnaped has wiped away the memory of Raphael . Well that doesn"t matter since you two can just get to know each other all over again . Seeing as Raphael is going to be living with us from now on . "

Oliver who was trying his hardest to remember a childhood friend called Raphael, suddenly heard something weird coming out of his dad"s mouth .

"Huh? What did you say dad?"

"About your trauma?"

"No, not that, what you said after that . "

"You and Raphael will be getting to know each other all over again . "

"No! The one after that . "

"Oh, about how Raphael will be living with us from now on . " Oliver who heard it again, was even more shocked since he wasn"t just hearing things .

"WHAT?!"
