'Ooof!' I couldn't help but look at that guy seriously once I saw those Stats… especially those Intelligence and Wisdom Stats. The f*ck, why are they so high? Did he forget to add it to other places or something?
"Pffftt… hahahaha…" George started laughing as he looked at Walter, who was making a really sad expression, as if he was going to cry or something. Then he glared at George, who laughing really loud as he spoke.
"I did tell you that he won't remember you. You haven't even been together for more than a few moments… told ya you were expecting too much."
"But he remembered you… that's not fair!" spoke Walter with a bit of sad expression as he looked at George, then at me.
"Sir Michael, are you sure you don't remember me? I was one of the guys you saved… or more like, didn't kill and even helped us near Arcadia University. We were there to… umm… kill you, there were a few of us there-"
"Ah! You were one of the two who I didn't kill, huh?" I thought as I finally realized who he was. His expression changed, brighter now as he nodded before continuing,
"Not only did you save me. But also my father. Gave us a place to grow, helped us get strong. I am really thankful to you for all that you have done for me and my father."
He spoke with a bright smile and I nodded as I smiled back at him.
'I just kind of wanted to gather strong people around me… also the fact that he didn't do anything really bad in his life saved his life more than I did,' I thought as I spoke,
"Glad to hear that. How is your father? How is he doing?"
"Ah! He is good. He went with Miss Caroline and Miss Myla overseas, back to Miss Caroline's father's mansion with the others. Only about 6-7 of us are here waiting for you to come back," He spoke as he looked at me with a serious face and hearing that they were still alive made me breathe in relief.
Though…
"What about Alissa? Where is she?"
At my words, Walter just turned numb for a moment before he looked at me with a slight complexion. Looking at his face, my eyes turned a bit serious, but before I could reach any conclusion,
"Miss Alissa vanished 2 months after the shield centered around you formed. According to Miss Caroline, a wood lady just came and engulfed her out of nowhere. After that, we never heard anything about her."
I looked at him for a few moments before nodding as I sighed,
"Is that so? Well… then that's fine. She is more or less safe… though I will make sure to check up on her later."
'If I am not wrong, it's related to the next Queen of Forest or something. Hmmm… though I don't think I will need to worry about Alissa much. I should be worrying about the forest people though,' I thought with a slight awkward smile as I knew the real sadistic nature of Alissa. Pity the forest lady who was in charge of Alissa.
Though I will still check up on her… I just need to find that plant dungeon before I leave. I hope it hasn't turned to smithereens too.
"Really?! Then that's good news, I guess!" Spoke George with a bright smile and I smiled at him before looking at Irene, who was feeling out of place here.
"George, Walter, this is Irene. Our new friend here," I spoke as I looked at her and Walter just observed me with a bright smile as he spoke,"So you do remember me!"
'Ah! He hasn't told me his name yet…' I thought as I just smiled at him before his smile brightened and he looked at Irene with a surprise as he spoke,
"You were Gifted too? No… from what the reports said, you didn't have any Gift… hmmm… then…"
At his questions, Irene's eyes reached me with a complex look, though that slight look was enough to tell what happened. Walter and George, both of them, just observed me as if they were looking at a heavenly being while those behind them, the Mallorn's guys, just looked at me as if their eyes would pop out of their sockets.
"We must kill him," the leader spoke as he observed me. I don't know how he reached that conclusion but…
"Ah! Remembering from killing, I almost forgot about it… George, Irene, Walter. Can you do me a favor? Let no one escape from here until I am done with it. Ah! Also, keep them alive," I spoke as I realized that I almost forgot about it.
"What are-"
-Slash!
I made a slash in the air ever so slightly. I didn't want to kill any of those guys… dead guys don't sell, you know?
[Time Rejection!]
"Huh?!" the guy who got hit by the slash spoke out in confusion
-AAAAAA!!!!!
Before a scream came out of his mouth and he shouted really really loudly…
Not wasting time, I moved closer to him and saw a bunch of people coming in between, even though a fear was present in their eyes.
-Whoosh!
-Slnnngggg!
-Zingggg!!
Though they were pushed apart as three people came in between me and them, paving a path between me and that injured guy.
Moving one step closer to him, while the others just struggled to get in, I soon reached the almost dying body of that guy and touched him.
[Second Space!]
I sent him into the Second Space before I looked at George and the others,
"Give me a minute."
'How long will I be touched, hit, hurt or killed?'
[45 Years: 11 Months: 15 Days]
I sat on the ground and closed my eyes before
[Second Space!]
Moving into the Second Space, I saw that guy being thrashed by Rhea against the wall with an annoyed expression present on the face of Rhea.
"I will take him," I spoke and she nodded,"you better tell me beforehand that you are bringing filth again in this place."
I nodded at her as I spoke,"there will be 13 more of them after this one."
Moving closer to him, I saw him standing up on his legs as his powers were recharging and looking at me coming towards him, he raised his hands towards me and shouted,"Air Current!"
Just like the name, an air current flew out of his fingers and slashed my body apart before
[Time Rejection!]
I then moved as I looked at those eyes of disbelief. Even Rhea was looking at me with a surprised look as she spoke,
"You got that Skill, huh? You should be feeling quite invincible now, don't you?"
I picked up that guy who attacked me again
[Time Rejection!]
"Anything I should be worried about?" I asked as I looked at her and she shook her head as she spoke,"Nothing honestly. With your mental fortitude, you should be easily able to handle that. All the more because you have faced death once and also slept for ages. Normally, people have their mental fortitude broken every time they die, but I guess you were lucky to go through a condition like that beforehand."
"Not sure I understand, but as long as I am going to be fine, that's all that matters," I spoke before moving towards the [Shop] section.
I wanted to kill him many times, but for now I kind of wanted to get a few Cronas and upgrade a few things first.
[Do you want to sell a B-Grade Zombified Human(Gift: Air Rectifier) for 125,000 Cronas?]
Looking at that amount of Cronas, a greedy smile appeared on my face as I nodded before looking at that guy who could feel something was wrong.
Though before he could do anything
[Yes!]
I pressed as I saw his eyes hollowing as he looked at me with a scared face… his eyes confused. He vanished before me as I received 125,000 Cronas.
Do I feel bad about him?
Well, he did kill about 24 people, out of which 7 were children. He had r*aped 3 women and also was a sadist who… well, I would rather not say.
And the best thing about this whole thing? He was the least worst guy among those men who were out there. Not including Walter and George, of course. And also 4 more people…
Yeah, there weren't just 14 people, but 18 in total. Out of which, surprisingly, 4 were good guys with minimum crimes… though I wonder about that…
