Hackerman and Record of Ragnarok S02

"Hidden" side

Hackerman moving away from this place and walking towards his training ground, there he meets Kojiro, Jeremy and Jones to train with the sword.

Kojiro, Jeremy, and Jones are all gathered at the training ground, practicing their swordsmanship. They greet Hackerman as he approaches.

Kojiro: "Ah, Hackerman. You've arrived. Are you ready for some intense training?"

Hackerman: No thanks very much Kojiro, I'll practice on the punching bags.

Kojiro nods, understanding Hackerman's preference for strength training.

Kojiro: "Very well, we'll be practicing our swordsmanship over here. If you need us, just give us a shout."

Hackerman: Okay thanks...

As Hackerman starts unleashing his anger and frustration on the punching bag, Kojiro, Jeremy, and Jones continue with their practice. They steal a few glances in his direction, noticing the intensity with which he's hitting the bag.

Kojiro, being the observant warrior, speaks up.

Kojiro: "You seem particularly... motivated today, Hackerman. Is everything alright?"

Hackerman doesn't respond, continuing his assault on the punching bag with a vengeance. His facial expressions suggest that he's not in the mood for conversation at the moment.

In his mind as he weighs the bag, the figures of Brigadier General Hamilton and Dr. Forbes are created and he imagines himself hitting them.

The figures of Brigadier General Hamilton and Dr. Forbes appear in his mind's eye each time he attacks the punching bag. In his imagination, Hackerman seems to be channeling all his anger and rage against them. With each punch, it's almost as if he's hitting the brigadier general and the doctor directly. As Hackerman continues to pummel the punching bag, his breathing becomes heavier, and his attacks become even more fierce. It's clear that he's deep in his own world, taking out his anger and frustration on the imaginary figures of Hamilton and Forbes.

Hackerman pauses after a half-hour of intense training, catching his breath and reflecting on his emotions. He mutters to himself about his anger towards Brigadier General Hamilton and Doctor Forbes, promising that they will pay for their actions. After half an hour, he stops and takes deep breaths,talk to himself.

Hackerman: This is what you two will get, Hamilton and Forbes,you will suffer for good.

Kojiro, Jeremy and Jones have finished their practice and approach Hackerman, curious about his intense workout.

Kojiro: "Hackerman, are you alright? You've been working that punching bag pretty hard."

Hackerman: Everything is fine, I just wanted to practice my mental skills in a combat situation.

Kojiro, Jeremy, and Jones exchange glances, sensing that there's more to it than Hackerman's letting on.

Jeremy: "Are you sure it's just mental training? You seemed pretty angry while you were hitting that bag."

Jack the Ripper approaches the group cautiously, his presence causing a bit of surprise and tension. As he reaches Hackerman, he speaks.

Jack the Ripper: "Ah, Hackerman. Training hard, I see."

Hackerman: This is what I needed now, for you to come who killed Hercules,I wonder if you have feelings or not.

Jack the Ripper looks a bit taken aback by Hackerman's statement. He responds with a hint of defensiveness in his voice.
