Chapter 1445 – 1445. The Dark Moon
After receiving a call from YuRia, I returned home.
The three uninvited guests were held in the basement with their limbs bound and their mouths gagged. I reflexively scanned the basement. The basement was a space I usually use for magic training and magic research. Except for a few magic tools, nothing special.
She told Yuria that she could use the basement as she pleased, so she didn’t have to hold her accountable. Above all, things like magic research materials are in my head.
“… How did you overpower it? You can’t even think of moving.”
“I cut my spinal cord. Her nerves are cut, so she can’t move her arms and legs. You can still move up to your neck. Of course you can talk.”
“What about tying her limbs?”
“Because you never know. There may be secrets I don’t know about, so I tied them up.”
I approached them The wound on his back was covered with an old cloth like a rag. I feel like I didn’t care about the disease at all and only gave first aid.
‘It’s a great skill.’
Looking at them, I don’t see any other wounds. It means that he overpowered them with his overwhelming power.
‘Should I say that he came from a knight training center….’
It wasn’t surprising that she overpowered them. She is a maid From the first time she saw her, she had assumed that she had some power.
I grabbed one of them and sat it down in a chair. His eyes fluttered, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. I deliberately chose the one who looked the weakest.
[Silence]
Use magic before removing the gag from its mouth. Block out basement sounds. It would be difficult if his screams leaked out.
The gag was removed. The bastard didn’t scream. He bit his trembling lips.
“… Kill.”
“Why should I? For you right now, dying would be the greatest mercy.”
“There is no feeling in the body. It means that no matter what torture you do, you feel no pain. Killing me would be easier. Or are you going to accept my poop for the rest of your lifehehe. That’s not bad either. A life where such a pretty maid accepts my poop and urine… Kuck!”
Damn!
Slapped
Seeing him talk about YuRia made me angry. Yuria was my woman that I was responsible for. I couldn’t let an insignificant person blaspheme.
I grabbed his head and moved the mana. She intended to scan the mana body once.
Dismissal.
Blue flames flashed. I was in doubt. I didn’t use lightning magic. It was just that the mana naturally turned into a weak current.
‘… I think this would be more convenient for scanning the human body.’
I chose the one I was comfortable with.
A tiny electrical current ran through his body, relaying that information to me.
‘I am not a mana awakener. Still, compared to my body, my body is very well trained. Can you reach this level with just normal training without mana… ?’
The answer to the question came right away.
Drug.
I’ve heard of drugs that strengthen muscles. It’s on the expensive side, but it’s not a drug that you can’t get your hands on at all.
‘As Yuria said, your nerves are cut off. Neatly cut off It’s amazing. But this… What do you think I can do?’
The way a person moves is, after all, an electrical signal sent from the brain. If only I could control that electric signal….
Dismissal.
Current flows. He suddenly stretched out his left foot. Stretch out with force to the tips of his toes.
“Wh-what did you do?!”
“Is this the right foot?”
Differently control the current. This time he moved his right arm to the side. Clumsy! His elbow is broken and he goes all the way back to the back of his chair.
“My, my arm… !”
His arm didn’t stop there and even turned 360 degrees. In return, of course, his arm was shattered.
Besides that, I did several experiments. Force other arms and legs to move, or stop the vital activity of the internal organs.
I got excited in the middle. Mana that floats in the form of an electric current.
Body responding to it.
A flash of magical inspiration flashes past.
What if electric current could even manipulate the brain? What if it was possible to manipulate someone else’s memory or mind?
‘A magic that can manipulate humans to my will. It’s not impossible to create such magic.’
With anticipation, I ran tiny electrical currents through his brain.
The result was a failure.
The moment a tiny electric current touched his brain, he closed his eyes and died. The human brain is far more complex and sensitive than I thought.
In an instant, I felt my interest cool off. This is because I realized that no matter how many times I tried it, it wouldn’t work.
“I killed him by mistake. Still, I got a rough idea.”
I dragged the corpse down from the chair and seated another one. He swallowed dry saliva and looked at me. His gaze toward me was full of fear. It’s because I saw right in front of my nose that I was conducting a human experiment with a person.
I put my hand on his shoulder. Dismissal. A tiny current runs through his body.
“Quaaaaagh!”
The bastard screamed. It probably feels like the entire cell is being tortured.
“If you want to be comfortable, you will have to tell me everything about yourself, starting with your name.”
He couldn’t even last a minute.
“I will tell you… ! I’ll tell you, stop… !”
I took my hand off the guy’s shoulder. The bastard let out a sigh of relief as the pain was gone. Then he quietly looked into his colleague’s eyes. The colleague nodded slowly. There is a light of resignation in his eyes. It seems that he chose to speak and die rather than continue to be tortured.
“We belong to the Fraxon Bath Troops.”
I didn’t think it was a mafia or a gang. Because the atmosphere is a bit different from them.
“Have you received a request?”
“… I thought it was a reasonable way to earn pocket money.”
“I don’t care what you think. The client and the contents of the request?”
“The client is Orn Havers. He is the leader of the Havers gang. The content of the request is to kidnap you. He said he wanted a chicken recipe.”
“Why did he hire you? Would it be okay for me to move on my own for a day like this?”
“The Havers Gang is now shunning itself, firmly imprinted in Congress. After moving directly, Congress can step out. They hired us to avoid the worst.”
“It’s the first gang I’ve heard of… Is it a force big enough for Congress to care?”
“They killed a member of Congress.”
Understood right away.
If any force touches them, they will be merciless. In particular, touching public officials is no different from turning the country itself into an enemy. It is rather strange that the Havers gang that killed the government official has not yet been subdued.
Got the information you need Still, I asked about other things just in case. There wasn’t much useful information. It’s just that the Havers gang belongs to Neo London’s gang union, Jupiter. Of course, I have never heard of a gang union called Jupiter.
“We are the Fraxon Mercenary Corps. If you release us, we’ll finish our business here. If you kill us, the Fraxon Mercenary Corps will not stand still.”
“Funny. Do you think I don’t even know the situation on this floor? No matter how I kill you, the Fraxon Mercenaries will not move.”
I didn’t attack the Fraxon Mercenaries. This work has nothing to do with the Fraxon Mercenary Corps. As I said before, they targeted me for pocket money, and I killed them in self-defense.
Even if the mercenary failed the request, the mercenary group that belongs to it does not directly step forward and retaliate. Because if it does, it will never end. Additional mercenaries may take over the quest to restore honor, but… Before that, the Fraxon Mercenaries will hold the Havers gang accountable.
“You know this industry well, don’t you? Are you in the same industry?”
Instead of answering, I looked away. It’s time to cross-check whether the information you’ve been told is correct.
•••
Those who caught them found out the information and killed them neatly. The body was incinerated with magic. Even though they were disgusting, there was no need to keep holding them and torturing them. Because it was a waste of manpower and time.
I left the house right away. I was thinking of finishing the troublesome work before dawn. The destination is Area V, which is famous for having many gangs. The Havers Gang also had a presence in this district.
Entered the V area. I walked away, fixing my coat for no reason.
The face was deliberately left uncovered.
This was retaliation. The Havers gang touched me first, and I can only retaliate against them. In the dark, it was a normal period.
‘I have to show my strength here so the future doesn’t bother me.’
The Havers gang weren’t the only ones trying to sabotage and take away my business. I have to show them guys. That I’m not easy.
‘Just because you got rid of a small gang, you can’t become so famous that you can’t live a normal life. Even if I become famous, it’s fine if I don’t go to work at the chicken restaurant myself.’
If the hourly wage is raised, manpower will be easily obtained. I walked, examining the walls and alleyways. Gangs mark their territory by drawing graffiti on the walls, just as a dog marks its territory with urine. You can find the gang’s hideout just by looking carefully at the signs painted on the walls.
‘There are no real gangs here. Because their organization is similar to a corporation.’
Most of the guys here were gossips. It was the reason I walked this street openly.
‘Found.’
An alleyway with signs of the Havers gang.
I thought as I walked down the alley. The Havers gang is part of the gang confederation Jupiter. That’s the reason why he hasn’t been subjugated even after killing a government official in Neo London.
‘It’s obvious. It must be related to a high-ranking official. If we get rid of the Havers gang… Most likely they will try to kill me.’
It’s obvious what I need to do.
Show me the power I have. And negotiate with Jupiter. You just have to imprint on them that turning me into an enemy is more of a loss than insisting on retaliation.
‘Union. You can’t come out emotionally with a gang of that size. It was the Havers who touched me first, so I have the cause.’
The foot that was moving forward stopped.
Three bullies with their backs against the wall were watching me while chewing gum. Their weapons were brutal. Assault rifle, pistol and grenade belt. Menacing tattoos such as skulls and monsters are engraved on its rough skin.
“What are you?”
“Did you come in knowing whose area this is?”
“If you are a guest, tell me the password. Give me five seconds.”
I ignored them and walked forward. In my head, I was thinking about how to kill him.
The guys reacted sensitively. He pointed the gun at me and pulled the trigger. Bullets rain down. However, no bullets touched my body.
Ting ting ting ting ting!
It is a barrier opened by a 5th grade wizard. Ordinary bullets can never penetrate it.
“What the fuck!”
A grenade with the safety pin removed comes flying.
