"WATCH OUT!"
Shouts of warning could be heard from all sides.
But it was too late.
I couldn’t even fully see the sports car behind .
The damn car speeding toward , intent on crash my body from behind.
Even if I had wind magic to dodge to the left or right, it was impossible because it was already too close.
But if I just jumped over it, maybe I could!
I jumped high, propelled by my wind magic, which sent my body spinning backward.
CRASH!
"Owh!"
My jump was high, but not fast enough, so part of my body still hit the window of that damn sports car.
My body spun, pushed by the car’s speed, and then landed hard on the floor.
SCREECH...!
The red sports car ca to a screeching halt about 30 ters in front of , still struggling to get up, my shoulder and back aching.
No one on the street seed to care about this deliberate collision.
I saw their faces, pretending not to notice or the reckless red sports car.
Heck... even the police officer who was patrolling there only glanced at briefly and then left, pretending not to notice.
I saw that the car’s red license plate didn’t have a number, but a bow and arrow symbol, identical to the Archer Aerilus family crest.
And when the front door of the car opened, it was all clear.
It turned out the asshole who wanted to run over was Dezy.
Dezy, in his sunglasses and smart suit, stared at for a long ti, as if enjoying my struggle to stand with bruised legs.
I saw two handguns strapped to his waist, one on each side, like a hardened thug.
"Hey, honey...look! I almost hit him!" Dezy exclaid, disgruntled.
From the other side of the front car door, I saw a woman dressed in a fashionable dress, an expensive fur coat, and a dazzling gold necklace.
I imdiately knew who she was.
Ela.
My ex-wife.
And she imdiately gave a disgusted look.
"Yes, honey...we were just a few minutes away from hitting him and crippling him for life." Ela said arrogantly.
Ela walked calmly over to Dezy, and they leaned close together, fitting the craziest couple in the world.
But now, I realized and knew that Dezy was Ulrich Aurelius.
It seed like he also possessed magical powers that he was hiding in this world, so I had to be careful not to attack him rashly.
"You two should be in jail for deliberately trying to run over," I said defiantly.
Dezy laughed disdainfully as she removed her sunglasses.
I could see her blue eyes staring at with arrogance.
"Take us both to jail? Impossible! No one dares to touch , Atreus! You’re the only one who dares, and do you know what the consequences will be? I could try to kill you, even in a public place like this!"
Absolutely insane.
I saw him like a tribal chief who had just taken over his colony with force and forced everyone to fear his terrifying power.
Dezy and I were still staring intently at each other, to the point where I forgot my little note with the address of the building where the auction angel’s pendant had fallen.
Ela noticed the little note and picked it up, as it was close by.
She read it, then looked at .
Her disdainful smile imdiately appeared.
"Are you serious about going to the Rainville building looking like a holess person?! The Rainville building is where billionaires spend their money on antiques! How could you, having lost your job and looking like a holess person, possibly get in there...!" Ela scoffed.
This shaless bitch is really pissing off.
Doesn’t she realize that her manipulation efforts are destroying my life, getting fired from the job where I’ve built a career for 17 years?
She even took all my assets!
"I’m definitely going in there and participating in that auction, you bitch," I said firmly.
"Bastard! What did you say to my wife, huh...?!" An irritated Dezy imdiately aid his handgun.
"You dare call an inappropriate na, Atreus? Not that I care because you’re just a bum who has no self-respect anymore..." Ela chid in.
"What’s inappropriate? You’re willing to be a whore for Dezy just to get rich, throwing away all my sacrifices as a responsible husband. You really are a disgusting bitch, Ela," I reiterated, undaunted even though Dezy looked like she wanted to pull the trigger.
"Ela! Let kill him right here! Nobody cares if this useless holess person dies!" Dezy couldn’t wait to pull the trigger, which Ela was holding back.
"Oh, dear Dezy... how about we go to the Rainville Building now? It looks like the auction is about to begin. We don’t have any ti. I don’t want to miss the Angel’s Pendant auction!" Ela said with a pleading face and a pleading tone.
Ah, this bitch is after the Angel’s Pendant too.
Even though it’s worth millions of dollars, it doesn’t seem to matter to her because Dezy is a billionaire from his shady business.
Do I have millions or hundreds of millions of dollars to win the Angel’s Pendant?
Definitely not.
But that doesn’t an I’m giving up so easily.
And I won’t imdiately use my magic powers to seize it.
I’m sure there’s always the right mont to do that.
"Go away, you two. I’ll make sure I win the Angel’s Pendant," I said in a challenging tone, which imdiately made Dezy and Ela stare at in surprise.
A few seconds later, they looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
"Hahahahah...! Winning the Angel’s Pendant, you say...?! A holess person like you wants to take the most expensive and unique piece of jewelry right now...?!Absolutely insane...! It looks like you’ve just taken so drugs that cause high, wild hallucinations, Atreus...!" Ela laughed arrogantly at .
"Ahahahah...! Ohohohoho.....! What an idiot...! A holess person like you can’t even get in, you idiot! Looks like you’re right, Ela...! He’d better not die now! I want to see his stupidity slowly destroy him while he suffers!" Dezy exclaid arrogantly.
"Do you want to bet, Dezy? I’ll prove that I can have that Angel’s Pendant..." I challenged.
"Bet? You idiot... what do you have for the bet anyway? Even you sell your organ, that would be not enough and decent for the fucking bet, idiot...! Look at yourself, a dirty shirt and jeans with stinky mantle. With that holess appearance, you’re not allowed to enter the Rainville building...!"
"Oh, are you scared...?"
"This jerk...looks like you’re right, Ela...he’s gone crazy and insane...! He no longer realizes that being holess is his reality...! It seems I’ll have to let him live longer, tornted by his lonely dreams...or probably not!"
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Three shoot from Dezy’s handgun released at the speed of bullet.
My spirit Rhaevor automatically activated, then my body flew away, landed so hard that feel almost made my bone broke.
The sharp bullets almost stroke breast and thigh, but it only managed to put a hole on my shirt and jeans.
The spirit Rhaevor suceeded hold the bullet that almost strike through my body.
Fuck.
"Hahahahah...! Had you awaken up yet, holess bastard...?! Stay lie on the street just like you usually do! Speaking so high to put a bet on , but you’re no fucking worthy, you useless trash! There’s no fucking way you can win ...!" Dezy insulted arogantly.
"It’s alright, dear...no need to took him seriously. He’s a trash and....nobody’s going to save this trash anyway. He will be ended like a dying rat soon, darling! He deserved it...!" Ela replied alongside wifh the sa arrogance.
Ela and Dezy mocked and insulted with that arrogant laughter relentlessly.
Despite all of that mockery, one thing I realized was that Dezy, a.k.a. Ulrich Aurelius, didn’t seem to realize I was Atreus Vermillion from the wizarding world.
Atleast not yet.
And I took it as an opportunity to strike back for the Angel’s Pendant later.
"Ah...whatever...! I’ve had my fill of laughter and I don’t have ti to deal with you anymore, you holess idiot! The police will arrest you and take you to a social welfare center for rehab!" Dezy exclaid as she walked away, getting back into her sports car with Ela.
Ela looked at with disdain, even seconds before she got into Dezy’s red sports car, she was still sneering at .
"The mont I force you to divorce is a supposed to be a right mont for you to understand how useless yoi are comparing with my dear Dezy. Such worthless man like yu deserve to die, Atreus...!"
The sports car’s accelerator revved, and Dezy imdiately accelerated toward the Rainville building.
I stand up, checking myself, no seriouz injuries so far since the automated healing spell is worked.
But a few minutes later, I heard the sound of a police siren.
"Holess detected as reported! We’ll imdiately apprehend that holess person!" said one of the officers.
Shit!
The police are going to arrest ?!
