Chapter 41 Enraged

• Later that day, while Mike was walking down the pathway from his calculus class, he was heading back home after a long day. He is a transferee, so he had to deal with many things today. He had to familiarize himself with the school map of where and which buildings and rooms he should go to. It wasn't draining his energy, but it consumed so much of his time walking around and introducing himself to his professors. It was already mid of the first semester, so he had to come forward to them to get into their classes and be recognized, as well as to make sure his name is on their records. But a group of well-built men surrounded him. He tried to ignore them and avoid getting into a fight, but they seemed to purposely block his way. They don't look like students, but Mike cannot tell what and who they are exactly. He tried to get through them. Turned to walk to his right, blocked. To his left, blocked. He tried to turn around. There was also someone blocking him from the back. He paused and looked around him. There were five of them blocking him. He checked their postures. He can tell if anyone is a combat fighter by looking at how they stand. He is a Hapkido fighter. He can take them down with his bare hands and whatever weapon the surroundings can provide. But as these kinds of skills require discipline, Mike did not want to start or to easily jump into fights like this. Patience is next to discipline. As much as possible, staying out of trouble is always the best solution.
• "Who are you?” Mike stood firm on his ground. He made them aware that he was not intimidated by their presence in any way, not even in the slightest.
• The guy right in front of Mike was equally unyielding. "You don’t need to know. You just have to come. Now it’s up to you, if you want to walk or we drag you, to get there”. The guys started to roll their sleeves. Letting Mike know they will actually do as they said.
