Chapter 2 What the hell are you doing?

Noan was happy and excited. This talent not only works on Noan's soldiers and heroes but also on himself. It's a win-win situation. Besides, if it is as described by this talent, then even if he summons a Rank F Hero, he can still evolve that hero to a higher rank. As long as Noan has enough 'materials,' he can even evolve his hero to Rank A, or even Rank S. Noan shook his head, suppressing his excitement. Even though he possessed an SSS rank talent, things had yet to begin. "He is here!" Suddenly, a young man's voice rang out. Noan quickly realised it was the voice of one of the thugs who had beaten him. In the small alley, five young men carrying metal baseball bats entered. Leading the way was a man in a black suit; although it was evening, he was still wearing sunglasses. On his face was a rather scary scar. Noan frowned, feeling scared: 'Could it be that they think I'm not dead yet, so they came back to kill me?' He originally intended to run away, but this small alley was a dead end. At the end of the alley was a wall of another building that was more than 10 meters high. Unless he grew wings, he would not be able to escape from this place. A thug saw Noan looking at him with a calm face and immediately shouted: "Fuck! I thought he was dead!" "That's right." Another thug continued: "There was so much blood just now, I thought he was about to die." "So this bastard was pretending. Damn it! Now I'll beat you to death!" Suddenly, the man waved his hand, and the five thugs immediately quieted down. He walked in front of Noan, then sat down, gave a spine-chilling smile, and said: "Kid, are you seriously injured?" Noan felt like this man wanted to say something; he tried to calm down, shook his head, and said: "It's okay, it's just a little bleeding." Although all the wounds on his body had healed, of course, he wouldn't say that. "Still conscious?" the man asked again. Noan did not answer but just nodded slightly. "Good! I know you're dissatisfied, but listen carefully..." The man said, his voice starting to become quite heavy: "You're shouldering the debt for your younger brother, but the IOU is your signature." "I... just want the money; I don't want trouble or want to beat you to death, understand?" Noan frowned and continued to nod without saying anything more. "Very good! Very smart, kid." The man smirked: "Although that amount of money is huge, as the principal and interest is 20 million credit points, I don't want to force you into a dead end." "If you have a stable job, you can pay off that debt slowly; of course, I won't charge you extra interest." "If not, I will cut you into pieces and sell your organs on the black market, understand?" Noan heard that and immediately knew that this man thought he could not pay his debt and sought death. Noan still hasn't paid even a single credit point of that man's debt. If he died, all that money would disappear. The man was not stupid, so he gave Noan a way to live to repay his debt. In his previous life, Noan was only 25 years old, but he started working very early. He had also met many types of people, so he knew very clearly what this man wanted. Noan did not rush to answer but took out a card from his pocket, raised it in front of the man, and said: "Don't worry, with this, I will quickly pay you back." The man saw the card and suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahahaha... hahahaha... very good... very good..." Noan continued: "Even though I am only a Rank F Lord, is this enough to prove that I can repay you?" "Of course!" The man patted Noan on the shoulder and said, "I will come collect the debt in a month. If you still can't pay by then..." The man didn't finish speaking, but the hand that was patting Noan's shoulder suddenly grabbed his neck: "The consequences... you won't be able to imagine it." "What the hell? Why isn't he dead?" The man sighed; if Noan were here, he would definitely recognise him as one of the thugs who beat him to death. No, to be more precise, beat 'Old Noan' to death. The man said in confusion: "I don't know either. At that time, I clearly used a metal baseball bat to hit his head many times." "He was bleeding profusely, and he lay still on the ground, so I thought he was dead." "I also didn't think he wouldn't even die and would even extend the repayment period." "Fuck!" This blond-haired young man was Noan's younger brother, named Negon. Noan and Negon are twins; however, they do not look alike at all, and Noan does not even resemble his father and mother. Negon, although the same age as Noan, was in the group that was tested later. Although he didn't know the outcome of whether he could become a lord or not, seeing Noan become a lord, even if he was Rank F, made him extremely jealous. Jealous to the point that Negon really wanted to kill Noan. That's why he gave the thug in front of him a large sum of money to beat Noan to death. However, Noan did not die; on the contrary, he extended the debt repayment period, making Negon so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. "Can you try again?" Negon said hurriedly. "Impossible." The thug said worriedly: "Boss has noticed him; if I do that again, I'm afraid... Boss will skin me alive." "Okay, don't contact me anymore; I've tried my best." The thug said and quickly left. "Tsk!" Negon clicked his tongue angrily, he gritted his teeth and muttered: "Noan! Don't think that becoming a lord means you can be arrogant." ... The next day, Noan woke up to the sound of the alarm clock. Yesterday, he didn't go back to the motel because he was afraid that the thug who beat him to death would do something terrible again. In fact, even if the thug who beat 'Old Noan' to death didn't tell the truth, 'Old Noan' still knew what his younger brother had done. After living together for 20 years, 'Old Noan' knew his younger brother's personality very well. After becoming a lord, Noan quickly left his family and rented a small room to live alone because he was afraid that Negon's jealousy would make him do terrible things. But Noan still underestimated that jealousy; he just didn't expect that Negon would pay someone to beat him to death. Noan knew clearly that Negon was behind it because... the thug who beat him up was someone Negon often hung out with. To be more precise, they know each other. Even a fool would know that Negon is behind this. Of course, 'New Noan' is not as 'friendly' as 'Old Noan'. He will definitely take revenge. Noan washed his face, changed his clothes, and had breakfast at the hotel. Then, he took a taxi to Landlord Academy. In this world, those who have completed 12 years of compulsory education are required to study an additional 2 years at Landlord Academy. Even if they don't have the chance to become a lord, they must have knowledge about new lands and landlords. Anyway, at present, all issues such as economy, politics, society... are related to the existence of Landlords. Very quickly, the taxi arrived at Landlord Academy. Noan got out of the car and just entered the academy gate when a familiar voice rang out. "Oy! Noan, what the hell are you doing?" A voice filled with anger and annoyance rang out; even without turning around, Noan knew clearly who that voice belonged to.
