Chapter 239 - Typhoon.

Yang Dao came to his room with a firm decision in his mind. He changed into a fresh pair of sleeping attire and walked out of his room. He headed to Ayaka's room. It was located close so after a few steps he came in front of a door and rapped on the door.

Knock Knock...

The door was opened from the inside after a few seconds. Ayaka appeared in front of him, dressed in a nightgown. She asked, "Dao, what is it?" 

You have to admit that she was a good coach. The concern in her voice was genuine. The boy said, "Coach, I will not use Silence in the further races. Also, can I move alone? These people and their irrelevant talks have pissed me off a lot." 

His voice was calm, but the agitation was clear by his clenched fists. Ayaka thought and nodded. She said, "Okay, you can go but remember that the event still has four mode days to go. Okay?" 

Yang Dao nodded and after wishing her a good night, he walked away. The boy did not go back to his own room but walked outside in the hotel's garden. The team was staying in the branch of Paradise hotel in the city of Pearl. 

The staff saw him wandering around in casual clothes and all bowed to him slightly. When a few guests and people asked them about the boy in casual clothes, they were told of his identity surprising and shocking the people. A few of them wanted to approach him to express goodwill and establish contact, but Yang Dao tactfully declined. 

Some people were however too consistent in their efforts of bugging people out did not give up. To save himself, Yang Dao was looking around for some excuse, and his eyes fell on Sasha and Kiya coming out of the swimming pool area with robes wrapped around them. 

The boy excused himself and came to the two girls he said in a low voice, "Can you save me?"

Sasha looked around and found a lot of gazes focused on them. She hugged Yang Dao from the side suddenly and whispered something in his ears and then distanced herself again. She said to Kiya, "You two go out to the garden and chat for a while. I am going back." 

The two nodded and sent her away. Kiya held Yang Dao's hand and walked out to the restaurant. The Dao Child almost took his hand away but when he saw the surrounding gazes held Kiya's hand, making her reflect the pink hue of her hair on her face. 

The two came out and sat down in a pavilion in the garden. Yang Dao gazed at the stars in the sky. Kiya asked, "Why are you so uneasy?" her voice was calm and serene. 

"Nothing." said the boy.

Kiya smiled and did not ask him anything more, but said, "Don't shoulder stuff alone. I am always by your side." 

Yang Dao smiled at her and nodded. The two people enjoyed silence together. Kiya had now fallen for him completely. The boy was aware of it and thus had complex emotions in his heart because he has never thought of falling in love with anyone.

After a few minutes, the couple returned to their respective rooms. 

...

In the morning, the crowd was gathered at the starting line. To everyone's surprise, Yang Dao was not riding the black 'Silence' but he rode a blue bike. A lot of people among the participants had a similar bike. 

They all thought that this was a chance for them to defeat this monster. After all, he had given up his war chariot. The team of the National University, Military College, and Silver City were standing in the front. Yang Dao was the first person to cross the final finish checkpoint yesterday so, he was at the forefront.

The referee signaled and the boy shot off. His aura was fierce today. After five seconds the rest of the people also were given a signal to ride forward. Alex, the climber of the military college said, "Why does this boy seem to be faster?" 

Icarus chuckled as he heard this. The three teams were riding side by side. The boy said, "Senior, do you think that this pervert can only climb?" 

His words surprised the people. A cold snort sounded, "He is just five meters away, I can catch up if I want to anytime." this person was called Mattheus, the sprinter of the Military College. He was the tough competitor of Felix, they had a tied result. 

Felix said, "Wrong, he has pulled away by seven meters. Your fans have spelled doom for you all." his voice was calm as usual. 

The silent captain of the Military College, Evan, said, "I don't want to agree but I have no choices. His aura is very different from the past days." 

Thomas chuckled and said, "This boy when he first met me, defeated me in a sprint. The second time he defeated Icarus and took the ruby peak. The third time, he defeated Ray and broke the record of the ruby peak. All this he did while riding 'Silence'. The people do not understand it but that bike is actually keeping this monster child in check. Are you all aware of the limitations of that bike?"

The captain of the silver city team spoke, "Yes. If a cyclist is unaware of this, then what sort of cyclist they are. However, it does give him a boost. So why did he give it up?" 

Thomas said, "A few people have been commenting on him and his sister. Blaming them for using that bike. Yang Dao lived in an orphanage for sixteen years of his life before he could reunite with his sister. You tell me, how much he loves his sister? How can he tolerate such a stain? So he gave up the boost and the limitations." 

His words made the atmosphere solemn. Evans said, "So, the gust has become a typhoon." as soon as his words dropped, Yang Dao shouted from the front, "Captain, I am off." then he stood up on his bike and shot off like a bullet. His figure slowly vanished from the sight. 

Icarus said, "Wait, is this monster trying to sprint for the coming Five kilometers?"

A collective curse echoed on the track, "FUCK."
