The Eternal Debauchery's

dark bloody alley

I tried to engage in a conversation with Clarice while I waited for the owner's decision. Clarice was mostly silent, but she answered some of my questions.

I learned that she was the wife of the owner's son. She married him two years ago and lives with his parents while he works as a guard in a nearby town. Her husband usually leaves because of work, only returning once or twice each month.

In addition to him and his owner, the house has a fourth occupant. It was a fifteen year old young girl named Nana. She is the owner's daughter and is already asleep. He works at the store and has to get up early every day.

When Mrs. Lluvia and Peter finished their conversation, they walked towards me. Mrs Lluvia had her usual gentle smile, but Peter put on a dissatisfied look.

"Then?" i asked.

Mrs Lluvia bowed slightly. “Sorry, young master Clark, we need a little more time to make a decision. Why don't you come back tomorrow and we'll give you an answer.”

I hesitated a bit before nodding. "i understand, but I hope you can give me a definite answer tomorrow so that I can find another place to stay if I can't stay here."

Madam Lluvia nodded in understanding. "Don't worry, you'll get the answer tomorrow."

"i understand. Good night then. I need to find lodging for tonight.”

The three of them said goodbye and accompanied me to the door.

Contrary to my words, I did not look for lodging when I left. Instead, I walked slowly through the dark streets of the imperial capital.

I'm pretty sure they'll approve my proposal. After all, they seemed to be in desperate need of money, and the amount I offered for the room was more than others offered.

So, now that I have settled my lodging matters, it's time to start the main course tonight.

After a while, the streets became deserted. There was almost no one else on the streets other than me, and the few people who sometimes walked near me, looked hurried and a little scared.

Soon, I saw some gazes. A gaze filled with hatred and greed was directed at me. Robbers.

A few minutes later, some people followed me. They seem to be impatient again.

I curled my lips upwards. My prey is here.

I looked back for a moment and pretended to be scared. Then, I started walking faster, as if trying to escape from the people who were following me.

However, they also accelerated. Therefore, I was immediately surrounded in a dark alley.

“Hehe, what do we have here? You look lost, Son.” The one who looked like the leader spoke.

“A-What do you do?” i stammered.

The leader grinned. "What are we doing? Haha, brothers, the boy asked what we are doing! ”

“““Hahahaha!!!””” The robbers laughed mockingly and pulled out daggers and short swords from their belts.

“Hahahaha!!”

"Yes, those clothes are wasted on people like you!"

“Bos, he looks so handsome! Maybe we can sell it to a brothel! I heard that some people have a special hobby! ”

“Hahahaha!”

"I'm sure her red hair will be popular among the fat nobles!"

“Hahahahaha!”

I looked around at the robber and lowered my head. "A-a-have better advice."

"Oh? I want to hear it.” The leader looked at me curiously, like a cat playing with a mouse.

"You can, you can .. You can die."

Then I lifted my face.

My eyes glowed with an ominous red color, and my lips curved into a demonic smile. Abundant mana flowed through my body, filling it with incredible power.

"Be careful!" The leader shouted, but it was too late. The next second, an incredible pressure had filled the environment.

The robber's face paled. They finally realized that they had offended someone they could not afford to hurt. But even if they wanted to apologize now, the pressure around them prevented them from speaking up.

Only its leader, the sixth-tier warrior, could barely move. However, when she saw my smiling face, her legs trembled.

“P-Great soldier, I beg your forgiveness.”

"Oh? But, why would I forgive you?”

Cold sweat runs through the leader's back. He could feel the world shaking around me, bending his knees to obey my orders.

"You saw." I smiled, "I think you should all be punished."

“!!!”

“T-No... Tidaaaaaaak!”

For the next minute, the dark alley was filled with terrifying cries.
