That same Tuesday, Amon went out alone again with a backpack.
"Be careful, and don't go deeper into the mountain, it's very dangerous," Sonia said in a worried tone.
"Oh, I will be," Amon replied and nothing appeared on his expressionless face before leaving.
Though she hasn't been a good mother to him Sonia hopes he doesn't take too many risks. She knows she doesn't have that right, but she still cares about him. Besides her initial fear of him is almost gone, although he seems cold she was quite surprised at him helping Julia. Even an idiot would realize that he took it easy on Elijah even though Elijah wasn't thinking about the well-being of Amon. Although she didn't want to believe it, she realized that Elijah had a grudge against Amon.
'What that boy Nick said... Does it seem like maybe I've been wrong all these years?' Sonia looked at her son's back and an expression of regret made her want to cry, if that's what it was, she really was a horrible mother.
Julia wanted to go along but was convinced not to ask. After all, Amon was strong, but she was not, and since she was weak she could get Amon hurt so she gave up on asking to come along.
The mountain was the same, Amon intended to get closer to the white stone this time. He felt some connection with it, and it made him feel curious and even attracted to that peculiarity. But still, he would not act rashly, although he strengthened himself there might be strong animals near the white stone.
As Amon walked through the streets with a backpack on his back, his aloofness and stride made people back away. A few women still stared at him boldly since Amon was charming with his cool ways, honey-colored eyes, handsome face with a piercing gaze, and well-built body.
Amon was wearing a white tank top with jeans and black sneakers. Because of the strong muscles in his arms and the white T-shirt that fits tight to his body, he attracted the attention of many women, although most feared him.
"Oh my God, it's hot, you're hot~" A young adult aged 19 to 20 walked past Amon waving her hand and smiled softly at him. She was suggesting that Amon was 'hot', but Amon who overheard thought she was talking about the day that was pretty sultry, so he was oblivious to what she meant.
"Oh…" Amon simply nodded and continued walking.
The woman was frozen in place, the heat she felt faded and she even felt a chill as she saw the coldness in Amon's eyes.
After that, those who saw it were not foolish enough to do the same.
They just admired him from afar or even took a picture.
When he got close to the mountain, there were hardly any people passing. Amon passed the signs that warned him not to enter and walked up the mountain.
Someone who saw him enter frowned and asked to stop the car.
"Miss. Barbara, why do you want to stop here?" The driver asked curious, after all, there was no store or anything like that close it was just a quiet street near a mountain.
She didn't answer and, opening the door when the car stopped, she yelled, "Amon!"
Seconds later, she saw the boy who had his back wearing a white tank top turn around, it really was him... She was thrilled.
She walked over to the danger sign, ignoring the driver's screams.
"Have you come to train?" Barbara did not participate in the tournament as she had no interest, but she saw him fight and found it impressive, even more than she already thought he was.
Amon stopped two meters away from her and looked at Barbara. He remembers her and said nonchalantly but not coldly, "Yes."
"I..." Seeing the warning signs, she didn't have the courage to say she wanted to go along. Although she thought of making an effort and even asked her mother to buy special genetic meat, she knew her limits. Currently, she didn't think she could train with Amon because she knew it would only hinder him.
"Good luck." She forced herself to smile and said.
"Thanks." Amon thought it strange, but he still thanked her with a neutral expression.
"I'm going, I hope to see you when classes come back," Barbara said goodbye to him and, seeing him nod, she left towards the car, but then regretted it. She should have asked for his social network contact...
But would it be too arrogant of her to call him back? She didn't have that courage...
After Amon saw her leave, he went back up the mountain and stopped a few yards away from the white stone. Some animals recognized him, but he didn't get that close, just kept looking at him warily from afar.
Amon didn't care. He took off his backpack and put his smartphone in it then sat down on the floor. In fact, he remembers something and takes out a plastic bag and wraps his backpack. Afterward, he begins to meditate by sitting on the floor.
A lynx suddenly tried to approach Amon.
In an instant, overwhelming pressure fell on the lynx. The lynx's paws grew weak and the hairs on its back stood up.
An impatient look passed over his eyes and he said slowly, "Stand back, or you'll die."
The mountain lynx was at level 30 and initially thought about attacking Amon but, feeling all this murderous intent and coldness, it slowly began to back away while looking at Amon with fear visible in its predatory eyes. The lynx growled, but still backed off one step at a time.
The other animals that saw Amon last time were hoping for something like this, in fact, they even thought the mountain lynx would die, but it seems that the human is only interested in training and won't do anything as long as it doesn't get in the way.
Many animals benefit from it so they were close again, but they didn't stop the lynx sooner as they wanted to test his strength. It looks like he deserves their respect, so now they wouldn't let other animals rush in or they might infuriate the human and they wouldn't be able to benefit from it anymore.
