13 Chapter 13

Takao left hurriedly to look at the bank.

"3.5 Million Yen just like that. That is absurd."

Meanwhile at the Jewelry shop.

"Hey. Who is the person that sold these?"

"Umm... Manager. He's just a teenager. He sold that and he said it is his grandfather's lost collection. He said there's ten more left on him."

"But these things are different. What kind of language is that?"

The inscribed text actually reads. "For the glory of Gallensia." On both sides of it.

But even though it reads like that. It could be used to buy items from different nations. It just had those inscribed on it so that people would know that it originated and made on that kingdom. Other nations do the same practice too.

"I already sent a picture of this to an expert. If we could identify this. This would fetch a higher price and it would be more profitable."

A few moments then.

"There he is. He's calling."

"May I hear about it too? Manager?"

"Sure."

"Hello? Manager?"

"Oh. Yeah. About the thing inscribed on that coin?"

"Um... Sir... Actually... There's no language like that. Even in ancient times. There's no language like that. And I even had many people helped me with that to give you results before an hour. But there's really nothing in our quick research. But please. Give me time. I will make sure that there's a result. Give me a few days."

"Yes. I gave the task to you because you could give me findings in just minutes. Then. I will gladly give you a few days. Please. Find that language."

"By the way. Who sold you it?"

"Just a random teenager. He said it's his grandfather's collection. There's actually ten more with him."

"That's... Strange."

"Yes. It really is."

"Is it fine to give me the footage of your surveillance cameras? I would like to find this person."

"Why?"

"I'm a detective too you know?"

"Yeah I know that. But..."

"Don't worry. I will find that person after this. I just would like to meet him after this."

"Why though?"

"It just piqued my interest."

"Fine. You may."

"Thank you."

Takao got out of the bank while smiling.

"Mom and Dad will be happy with this."

He actually withdrew 300,000 Yen from his bank account. Which he put on his bag.

There are lots of people walking. And he's currently heading home now.

Suddenly. A person appeared. He's holding a gun.

"Hey! Give me your money hurry!"

The people panicked then.

One of them had been calling the police now.

"There's no need to call the police please."

"But!"

"There's no need!"

"Hurry! Or I will kill you!"

But that person still proceeds to call the police.

"I don't think you could do that... Can you actually pull the trigger?"

"Hurry!"

"You saw me withdrew my money right? That's why I'm your prey."

"Hurry up! Give me!"

"Hmph. I don't think I could."

"Hurry! I will really kill you! I could do that!"

"No you can't."

Takao is just surprisingly calm. He's fully well known that he's on earth. He is just really like that.

"I will!"

"Hey! One of you! Apprehend him!"

"Don't come close! I will kill this person!"

"Tsk!" The people couldn't come close now since they are well known that a person might die from carelessness.

"You can't kill me. Your hands are shaking. See?"

"Just give me the money before the police arrive!"

"No."

There's then a gunshot.

But an unbelievable happened. At a distance of 10 meters. Which is a point-blank range. Takao caught the bullet which should have hit him on his chest.

He managed to do this because. Earlier this morning. He discovered he could use magic. But not to the extent of the different world. He could only manifest the wind as strong as in the magic world. He could also heal himself and others. But sadly. He seems to be getting tired. He simply just used the wind to halt the bullet before it hit him and caught it really fast to make it look like he caught a bullet in point-blank range.

"What's the matter? Only one bullet?"

Everyone is dumbfounded about what happened.

"Wha, what did you do?"

"I simply caught the bullet. Only one bullet?"

"Of course not–"

Before the gunman fire again. The police arrived and shot him. But luckily he lived. Since it only hit his shoulder. Which then he collapses on the ground

"Don't fight back!"

The policeman then proceeds to handcuff him.

Takao walks towards the policeman.

"Here. Evidence. Make him suffer in jail."

And he gave the bullet he caught using his right hand.

"Wait! Who are you?"

"A simple and poor citizen."

"You're coming with me."

"Coming to the police department is a drag. Let me go. My mother will get mad of me if I arrived past 8:00 PM."

He then looked at his watch.

"See? It's 7:40 my house is a bit far. So let me go. You wouldn't want my mother angry."

"No! You're coming with m–"

"I said let me go!"

"Uhh..."

And he left while the policeman stares at him.

"What was that feeling?"

As the policeman exclaimed.

He arrived at home. 1 minute before 8:00 PM.

"Mom?"

"Hmm? What happened to you? Why did you arrive just now? You're late."

"Tell me, mom. Where's dad?"

"He said he would be arriving late."

"Let's just wait for him. But mom. Take a look at his first."

He then took an envelope from his bag. There. A bundle of ten thousand Yen notes contains it.

"Where'd you got this. Son? Don't tell me..."

"No mom. I didn't steal it."

"Then... How?"

"This!"

He took a gold coin from his bag.

"A toy? That's what I saw this morning right?"

*Sigh* "That's not it mom. This is a gold coin."

"Gold coin? Wait. How'd you got that?"

"Long story mom. There's actually twenty of these. But I sold the ten. Which each piece costs 350,000."

"What!!!??? Then that means. It's... 3.5 Million Yen?"

"That's right."

"What!!!??? Then. Where's the other money?"

"It's in my bank account. Tell Dad to quit his job. We could live through these."

"Umm... I don't think your father will accept that. You know. He loves his job."

"Fine. Then I won't ask him."

He could casually smile and laugh with his parents. Since they are the only people who truly accepted him.

"By the way. Let's eat first. Since your father will be late."

9:00 PM. His father then arrived

"I'm home."

"Welcome back dear!"

"What's wrong?"

"Come on! Let's talk about it!"

The three then discussed things through the night.

With these. I could be rich and give my family a good life.

Aki. I will make you mine.
