YM778.TV Chapter 145 - It Seems Like I'm Already Wanted
Right now I\'m jumping on top of buildings and patrolling the city to find any bad guys. Either they are from the cult or not.
I have stopped a mugging, kidnapping, sexual assault, and even murder. But seriously, I never thought that this city is filled with criminal. I guess I never really tried to see it before.
It was easy for me since I can sneak behind them and kill them with a single slash. Or by using my Air Cannon from distance.
There have been some rumors spread among the citizen about a caped hero saving people, but for the authority, I am a criminal.
That\'s obvious knowing that some of the people in the authority are members of the cult. I even killed some guards doing shady business before.
While I\'m doing my patrol, I found someone with HGB walking alone on empty alley.
Since there are no one else here, and I don\'t think it\'s a trap, I\'m thinking of what to do with him.
And so, this time, I\'m not playing hero. I\'m playing the bad guy.
How bad I am? Well, as soon as I get close to him, without any warning, I severed both of his leg.
"AAAAAAAHHHH!!" The guy screamed in pain, but I ignore him and just pushed him down to the ground from the back. It\'s so that he can\'t identify who I am. Even though I\'m still wearing a disguise, it\'s still safer this way.
"What do you have here? Accessories? Jewelries? Money? Hmm? You\'re a hunter so you have a hunter card. That means all your money is in here, right? I\'ll just strip everything above your waist since below it, it\'s dirtied by your blood."
I act as a bad guy and stripped everything above his waist. I don\'t plan to sell them since there might be a tracker or something. I\'ll just burn them or throw it outside the gate later without taking anything for myself.
Hmm? He has some money not saved in his card? I\'ll take it.
"You! I\'ll kill you! The cult will not forgive you for this!" The guy shouted at me.
He\'s so stupid. To think that he actually said something about the existence of the cult.
"What cult? Saying it a cult makes it seems like you are doing bad things together. Are there more people like you I can rob in that cult? Then please if you\'re still alive, tell them about me." I provoked the legless man.
"Who the hell are you?!" He didn\'t answer my question. I guess it\'s time to leave.
"I\'m just a normal mugger. Well, a bit barbaric but yeah. I\'m- oh, shit! That caped hero wannabe is here! Gotta bail. Bye!"
I pretended to run away from the caped hero. Which is actually me as well. I escape while screaming. The legless man should be thinking that he\'s saved now. Well, if a healer is nearby, then he can be saved. If not, then luck is the only thing he can count on. But there\'s no one around and I don\'t plan to kill him yet.
After I left, I looked at him again. The legless man then looked around while screaming for help. But no one is coming.
So he explode his own head. He took his own life without hesitation after knowing that he can\'t be saved.
With this, the cult will be more wary toward my existence once his corpse is found. I have killed some of them before but now after the show of strength I did during practical exam, they are surely can\'t leave me alone.
Maybe they have been wary of me since I first killed someone few days ago. Well, with my Divine Vision, I can see if anyone is planning to trap me so I believe I will be fine.
"Where are you going now?" Victoria asked me.
"The usual. Patrolling while looking for another agent so I can inform them that I killed another member of the cult. But before that, I guess I should throw these baggage first."
I leave the city and throw the stuffs I stole from the man I left for dead. Then when I\'m returning to the city, I heard a scream for help.
I look for the source and find a woman being surrounded by a group of men. I\'m about to go there to be a hero and save her, but I changed my mind after seeing something else.
The woman doesn\'t have HGB inside her mouth. And so do the men that surround her. But the ones who have them are hiding in the surrounding. In fact they seem to be surrounding the group of men. And all of them have HGB in their mouth. And they are all men. The surrounded woman is the only woman here.
I\'m suspicious with this situation so I find some place I can hide and hear what that girl said.
It\'s difficult to bypass the guards, but I did it. I hide in an empty building just next to the woman.
Although it\'s still bright, there are no other people around here. I see some people but none of them dared to help the woman. Is this group infamous in the area?
"Unhand me, you pigs!" The woman shouted at the men grabbing her.
"No way. And you, aren\'t you seducing men when you\'re walking with those tight clothes and such huge ass? Isn\'t this what you wanted?" One of the men who seems to be the leader said that.
"No way! I\'m not trying to seduce anyone! Release me! Help! Anyone, help me!" The woman screamed for help again.
"No one will help you here. Everyone in this area knows who we are. None of them dare to go against us. Now let me enjoy your body." The man smiling and approaching the woman who\'s being restrained by his men.
The woman then looked around and this time with a calm expression.
"I see. Seems like he\'s not here. Ah, well, why don\'t you all just die?" the woman then released a powerful wind magic and kill everyone there except for the leader.
Severed body and dismembered limbs are all over the place. The area is now covered with blood of the men who died.
The leader fall on his butt and looked at the woman in fear.
"You… you area an expert level wind mage?!" the man shouted in fear.
"Sigh… I thought that it\'s a good chance to trap that caped guy, but it seems I was wrong. Maybe he\'s really only active during the night."
Oh shit! An expert level mage is trying to capture me? Good thing I saw the people in hiding. If not, I would be dead by now.
"A beautiful woman is chasing after you. It\'s difficult to be popular isn\'t it?" Victoria whispered.
"Don\'t talk to me right now. Victoria, change into the wall here and I\'ll hide in between the real wall and you. I don\'t know how strong an expert level mage is, but it\'s better to be safe now." I ordered Victoria to be a wall. Then I put myself in between the real wall and Victoria and peeked at the scary woman.
"I\'m sorry! Please forgive me!" The man kneeled and begged for forgiveness, but the woman ignored him.
"Come out!" she said.
Did she calls for me? Nope. She\'s calling the people in hiding. So she\'s a member of the cult. But the fact that she\'s giving order and doesn\'t have an HGB in her mouth means that she\'s possibly the higher ups of the cult.
"Victoria, remember her face."
"And her body, right? Sure."
Even in this situation, she keeps making a joke. I just hope that she won\'t notice us.
I never met an expert level mage before so I don\'t know to what extent their power is. And I don\'t know if they can detect presence or not. That\'s why once I noticed that she\'s trying to lure me with using herself as the bait, I quickly hide myself.
"Did anyone come here?" The woman asked.
"No, Lady Veronica! No one entered this place!" one of the cult member replied.
Lady Veronica? That sound familiar.
"Isn\'t she one of the faction leader in the cult? The big butt one? We heard about her and the big boob faction from the twin back when you saved Candy."
Thanks to Victoria I remembered who she is. Veronica is a big name in the cult. And she\'s now trying to capture me? Maybe kill me. But I won\'t come out at all from this hiding spot.
Then Veronica continued.
"Don\'t you think that if he\'s sneaky at night, he can be sneaky during the day as well? What if he\'s already here but no one noticed him?"
"Lady Veronica is right! Everyone, check the surrounding again!"
Good thing I\'m already in hiding. All her people then searched the area thoroughly leaving no spot behind. Leaving Veronica alone in the alley. As for the man who grabbed her before, he\'s already been killed by one of Veronica\'s men.
One of the cult member entered the building I\'m hiding in, but no one noticed that the wall is actually a monster shaped into a wall. It\'s good that the building is black as well. The man then leaves and look for another spot.
Now it\'s just Veronica in the alley. Should I kill her? Nah. Too risky. I will never come out until she leaves.
"Hey~ I know you\'re here. Why don\'t you come out and play with me a little bit?" Veronica said seductively.
Alright, I\'m convinced. Let\'s go.
"You idiot! It\'s just a trap!"
The wall suddenly have a hand and pinched my cheek.
"Thank you Victoria. If you\'re not here, I would be tempted to leave already."
Scary. This Veronica is using her beauty as a weapon. Not just she\'s powerful, she\'s also know how to use her advantage as well.
"Do not come out until it\'s safe, okay?"
I nodded at Victoria\'s word. I won\'t be seduced again this time.
