Chapter 1257 – 1257. The Dark Moon
“Drink! Drink!”
“Bring more drinks!”
“I want to eat more meat.”
“Are there any women?”
I clenched my fists.
At most, I took a first class seat on the train, but the back seat is extremely noisy. What happened is that even though the superior seats are private rooms, there is no soundproofing at all.
Impatient, I called the train attendant.
“Did you call, sir?”
A uniformed flight attendant greeted me politely.
I pointed my thumb behind my back.
“Puhahaha! What is that dance!”
“This is a popular dance in Divine France! They say they hold prayers with this dance.”
“With that whore-like dance? A comedy for the gods! What a joke!”
The flight attendant’s face hardened at the voice coming from the back seat.
“Can you hear me? It’s been noisy since before. Go and be quiet.”
“… Me, guest Close the windows and the noise will be reduced.”
“Why do I have to close the windows for them? It’s not me who doesn’t keep manners, it’s them.”
The flight attendant did not act despite my words. Instead, he let out a deep sigh and bowed his head at me.
“Sorry, guest. Those of you currently in the back seat are the gang members of Pluto’s gang. Please be patient even if it is a little noisy. Don’t customers know that messing with gangs won’t do any good?”
“Right. If you can’t do it, I will.”
“Yes?”
He stretched out his hand toward the wall. A magic circle is drawn on the wall.
[Air Boom]
Quaang!
I smashed through the wall and got into the back seat. Seven tough guys who were drinking looked at me and turned their heads to the side.
“What else is this bastard?”
“Looks like a raid, brother.”
“No. What is a bastard like to attack? Without a weapon.”
“That’s it… You could ask. I specialize in this. Please wait just 3 minuteshehe.”
The henchman next to the boss grabbed the pistol he had placed on the table, pointed it at me, and pulled the trigger. A bullet flew towards my thigh and ricocheted off.
“What? Barrier… ?”
“Fuck! What are you doing! You’re a wizard! Kill me at once!!”
The gangsters jumped up from their seats and fired their guns.
Ting ting ting ting ting!
Bullets do not penetrate the barrier and bounce off. It’s a level 5 barrier. It doesn’t budge with ordinary bullets. It seems to be mixed with magic bullets, but the power is not enough to penetrate the barrier.
Clap clap clap.
The complexion of the gangsters who had fallen bullets turned blue in an instant.
“Are you done with the welcome? It’s my turn this time.”
[Air Boom]
Continuously activates air booms with extremely low power.
Pop! Boom, boom, boom!
The gangsters’ limbs burst. Their limbs flew through the air like fireworks, spraying blood everywhere like sprinklers.
“Aaaaagh!”
Screams abound.
I walked forward Thanks to the barrier, there is not a single drop of blood on my body.
Puck.
Step on a corpse that has fallen on the floor.
“You burned.”
The gangster’s torso burns. The gangster screamed terribly.
“You… Drown.”
A large drop of water covers another gangster’s head. A gangster without limbs cannot even resist.
“You freeze to death.”
They killed gangsters in different ways. Finally, the one who seemed to have the highest status remained. The guy buried in the chair gave off a terrible smell.
“No, wizard. Why, why are you like this Ho, did you receive a request from another gang?”
“Noisy. You were too loudhaha.”
I laughed involuntarily.
Okay. Know.
Being noisy is an excuse. I was just annoyed, and these gangsters were just the target of my anger because they were noisy.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I feel a little better.”
“This… Madman… !!”
His voice was full of fear. I snapped my fingers and used telekinesis. His body rises into the air. He turned his body like a top in the air. He didn’t do anything, he just turned around.
“Aaaaa!”
The top spewed his bodily fluids all over him. It was a dirty sight. After about 15 seconds, it stopped screaming.
I kept turning him.
Udang-tang-tang!
The hallway was noisy and the door opened and armed men stormed in.
“Stay… Holy shack!”
“It’s the London Guard. Drop your weapons and surrender!”
“Headquarters! The opponent is estimated to be a wizard of at least level 3 or higher! We need support!”
I threw the corpse of a gangster spinning in the air on the floor and used magic on the train window.
[Air Boom]
Aaaaang!
I jumped out of the train through the window.
“Shoot!!”
London guards sharpen their guns. Of course, I couldn’t pierce my barrier.
Wrapped around my body using telekinesis, I landed on the ground without difficulty. It was a wasteland. Only the hard rock greeted me.
‘Unlike the gangsters, if you mess with the London guards, they get annoying. Neo I’ll have to walk to London. It should take about four hours.’
The train disappears far away in an instant. If you follow the railway, you will reach Neo London.
“Kuk.”
A laugh came out.
“Kkeukkeuk.”
It was embarrassing. I don’t think it’s funny, but I keep laughing.
“Keuk-kuk, kuk-kuk..Haha!”
Laughing like a madman, I walked along the railroad.
I still don’t know why I’m laughing. Just laughed
How much did you laugh
I see 12 bikes coming this way in the distance. On top of the bike, guys in end-of-the-century fashion are holding the steering wheel. It seems that there are thieves active around here.
Haha!”
Whether they came or not, they smiled and turned away.
They stopped their bikes as if they were blocking my way.
“Are you crazy? Or is he pretending to be crazy? Either way, as long as it’s up to us, you’re doomed. I’ll rob you of everything I own, and sell you into slavery in the end.”
Green Sunglasses Mohican said. He had charisma. It seems to be the head of the thieves.
Woo woo woo.
Mana Rod activates.
The feeling of the rising air feels good at any time.
“Ugh! Fucking – Sheck! This, this… !”
The boss is shocked. It seems that he felt a premonition. Probably a mana awakener of at least level 3 or higher.
“This fucking sensation of hairs all over your body standing up… ! He’s a lightning-type magician of level 5 or higher! Run away right now!!!”
The boss shouts.
It’s already late.
No matter how much you step on the accelerator, you can’t escape from my eyes in this wasteland.
Haha!”
[Thunderbolt]
A huge thunderbolt strikes from the dry sky. Several bandits, including the boss, were swept away by the attack. Lightning left a huge crater at the bottom.
[Thunderbolt]
Aaaaagh!
Another bolt of lightning strikes the wasteland. Its power is greater than that of a bombing missile hitting the ground.
[Thunderbolt]
Haha!!”
He burst into laughter and activated Thunderbolts in succession. Places lightning bolts on the heads of fleeing thieves. He felt a surge of freshness in his chest.
After using Thunderbolt 6 times in a row, I lay down on the floor. I used up all my mana. Mana was depleted and it was difficult to move. The overworked Mana Rod heated up as if protesting.
“Fuck. My body is tired, but I feel great!”
I don’t feel the emptiness I always felt after that day. Of course, tomorrow the emptiness will come again.
“Oh, I want to have sex!!”
•••
A week ago, after entering Neo London, I was the first to find a house.
Neo London is divided into zones. Zones A-Z. There are 26 districts in total. The closer to zone A, the richer, and the closer to zone Z, the poorer.
I bought a house in District S.
Zone S is where the middle and lower classes coexist. It is the district where people who belong to the lowest of the middle class live, and the district where people who belong to the top of the lower class live.
It is an old two-story house with a basement. The former landlord said the building was only 20 years old, but from what I see, it is a 35-year-old building. The price is 48 million credits. He used most of his wealth.
‘I’m going to set up a workshop in the basement. It’s good that the minimum security is guaranteed. There’s no gangs nearby, so it’ll be quiet.’
The reason for reluctantly purchasing a house in District S was the desire to focus on workshops.
The problem is that after repairing the house and buying appliances and furniture, I only have 700,000 credits left.
Of course, a wizard’s workshop must have magic materials and magic tools. And they are damn expensive.
‘Fuck. I’m short of money. Money. I spent too much money on repairs, and I only had the bedroom furnished. You need money to do magic research, and you need money to do business. Money. Money…. Shall I rob the bank?’
I immediately shook my head.
This was Neo London.
There were plenty of guys stronger than me. Even if you covered your face with a bast mask, your identity could be quickly revealed through magic or psychic powers. Bank robbery is crazy.
However, you cannot make a lot of money by doing a normal job like others.
‘I can think of a few ways… I’ll have to think about it.’
Went out of the house
To learn the geography of Neo-London and to cool down, I took a walk every day.
Neo-London’s cityscape was heterogeneous. When you leave the residential area and step out into the shopping district, colorful neon signs shine. Airships float in the gloomy sky, and meaningless advertisements play endlessly on the display on the wall.
What was absurd was the carriage running on the roads of London.
In Neo London, which is said to be the most technologically advanced city in the world, citizens ride horse-drawn carriages rather than cars. Of course, the wagon has a futuristic feel.
If you want to ride a car in Neo London, you need to get a separate permit from City Hall.
Citizens’ attire was the fashion of the early 19th century. Men wear suits like gentlemen, women wear dresses. That was the basic outfit.
‘… I already knew it through my knowledge of the original work, but seeing it in person, it feels overwhelming.’
And it was common to see butlers and maids on the streets.
A butler with cat ears and a maid with elf ears roam the streets casually. Most of the butlers and maids were armed. I see a butler carrying a cannon on his back and a maid with a sword on his waist.
In Neo-London, butlers and maids were high-class personnel. Their salaries go beyond the basic 300,000 credits. There is even a separate license. In the case of elite butlers and maids, only the basic salary amounts to at least 1 million credits.
“A newspaper! Selling the latest newspaper published today!”
A little boy wearing a bread hat wanders the streets. Newspaper. In this era of developed internet, it was something that was not suitable. But the newspaper was selling like hot cakes. Citizens of Neo-London seem to consider it dignified to read paper newspapers.
“You’re cool bro there. Don’t you need a newspaper?”
“Not required.”
At my firm words, the newspaper boy ran away in a panic.
After the newspaper boy, a girl selling flowers appeared. A girl in a pretty dress offered flowers to passers-by.
“Brother. Don’t you need roses?”
I nodded.
“I just wanted to smell the scent of roses. One song.”
“Thank you, wonderful brother!”
Payment was made with a smart watch.
Neo London, where the latest technology and old-fashioned culture coexist, was worth seeing. In particular, Big Ben, which is visible from afar, in the center of London, is impressive. Big Ben, made of steel, sparkles with holograms and neon signs. On the surface of Big Ben, the letters Neo London were clearly visible.
While walking around Neo London, I saw a woman and stopped.
A maid caught my attention.
It was a blue-footed maid, dragging a black carrier with one hand and holding a black umbrella with the other. She had an outstanding beauty that caught the attention of everyone around her. The apron was equipped with a knife.
As soon as I saw her, I felt her familiarity. She couldn’t take her eyes off her.
My eyes met with the maid. She smiles and approaches me. I also approached her as if possessed by something about her.
“Hello, master. Do you not need a maid?”
