Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 218 - How It Works?
Meanwhile, Maverick Watson has just landed in Medreisten. He takes this trip deliberately looking humble, far from the luxurious impression of a mayor of a metropolitan city, wearing a gray flat cap and a knee-length blazer, making him look like a freelance journalist.“Sir! Mr. Watson, Sir!”Someone calls from a far by waving one of his hands, while the other hand is holding a cardboard sign mentioning ‘Mr. Watson’.Watson rushes to the man by keeping his composure, and then snatches the cardboard coldly, looking displeased.“You are going to attract people's attention toward me,” he grumbles.“Oh, sorry!” The man smiles unsurely. “I thought, after diving so deep into politics, you would be quite used to the public’s attention.”His modest appearance, with thin yellow hair neatly combed to the edge, and one thick pair of glasses, gives the impression that this man is just an ordinary person.And although he still looks quite young in his mid 30s, in reality, he is actually Prof. Matt
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 219 - What Did You Find?
However, Prof. Steinbach says nothing, and continues to adjust the three hands of the clock. Until then, he actually positions the three hands in the right position, and surprisingly.Tick! Tick! Tiktiktik!!!Something inside the watch component is open, as if there is another, smaller casing. There Prof. Steinbach discovers a small gemstone, similar to...“It's similar to the mana crystals I use in some of the weapons I’ve developed,” he speculates.“Really?” asks Watson.“I’m not so sure without analyzing this one little crystal. But…”He tries to take it out, but he can’t.“This thing might break if I force it. And I'm not so sure if I can rebuild it again.”“So?” Watson asks again.Prof. Steinbach smiles and gives the watch back to Watson without closing the caseback of the watch.“Just like you said, this is not a watch, but it was deliberately created like a watch for a purpose. The hands of the clock are used to open this small case inside the device, so that the tiny crystal c
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 220 - Giving Him A Nightmare
Like normal capitalism out there, Dildior Metropolis is filled with tall buildings, and a night life that seems to never sleep. In contrast to this glamorous life, there are narrow, dark, and damp alleys full of disgrace between the tall buildings.Some homeless people are busy scraping left over in dumpsters, while established men who have enough money are busy picking up something much dirtier than trash, harlots and call girls. Well, at least they still have to pay for it, so they can be proud of what they get.For them, this is not much different from buying goods. With high purchasing power, you can get better service and enjoy it in the best place.But for some people whose monthly salary is barely enough, but still want to get something to force their brain to produce dopamine without having to rely on drugs, they have to be satisfied with cheap girls offering blow jobs in the dark alley.Just like our friend here, the fat cop Raymond Hubbard.“Have you had dinner yet?” Raymond
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 221 - Please, Kill Me!
Confusion paints Raymond's pale face as he follows the direction of Dean and Namsqeem's conversation.However, regardless of whatever torture Dean will give him, he is quite sure that Dean will never kill him.That is his image of Dean, just a naïve kid who isn’t yet fully mature, who won’t have the guts to take a human’s life.“A nightmare?” he sneers, despite the pain in his dislocated elbow. “I've experienced the worst nightmare you can imagine. Whatever you do, in the end, you will still end up in prison for assaulting a police officer.”Dean doesn’t pay any attention to his words. He is still discussing with Namsqeem about whatever options they are considering.“Are you sure I’m going to be okay?” asks Dean.“You’ve experienced it before,” replies Namsqeem. “So it won’t be a problem for you. After all, you have a much stronger mind now. I believe you can handle it.”Dean shuts silent for a moment, and then mumbles. “So, you are going to start it with my body, not him.”“I can cre

And suddenly, someone appears and smacks him in the face. It’s so hard obliterating his head. But soon, he finds himself back alive, back in the same spot, with pale face and unstable heartbeat due to the shock of that previous hit.“What was that? Who?”“So, have you got enough?” someone asks him from behind.Raymond turns around, and is aghast to find Dean there.“You? How did you get here? Do you know how to get back downtown?”Dean smiles with his silly face. “Of course I know! But, do you really think I’d take you back to your home?”Dean slowly builds up his strength and channels all his energy into his hand, making that right knuckles glow. And then, the glow is slowly covered by some dark aura, sparkling like dark lightning.Out of nowhere, in the next split second, he punches the fat man in his mouth, obliterating his lower jaw with one hit. It doesn’t immediately kill Raymond, which enables the fat cop to feel the pain for a few moments.“Argh! Aaaarrrgh!”Raymond’s vision i
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 223 - The Least Risky Option
Unfortunately, one thing Dean forgot to consider, no matter how bad the nightmares the man experienced, the man feels relieved after returning to the real world.Soon, all the desperation is no longer visible in Raymond’s face. In fact, he is more afraid of the nightmare if he has to face Maverick Watson’s wrath after revealing Jay’s crime.Well, he is more informed about Maverick Watson’s reputation rather than about Dean who, in his eyes, is just a snorty brat who has just gained his reputation recently.“Is he crazy?” mumbles the fat cop with a pale face. “Revealing Jay’s crime and the corruption in the department, he said? That’s like asking me to commit a suicide!”But then again, he is still afraid if Dean reveals the crime he did himself, despite the fact he doesn’t know how much Dean knows and how he learned it.He tries to get up. And soon, he feels the excruciating pain in his hand. He almost forgot that Dean has dislocated his elbow.“Aww, fuck!”As he is able to sit by lea

Johann stays there a few more moments, observing Raymond who is still seen moving a little, in pain, still trying to breathe even struggling.However, Johann seems very confident that his victim will have no chance of surviving.“Help!” Raymond pleads in a low and hoarse voice. “Somebody, please!”Raymond is holding his own neck, suffocating. As time passes, his breathing becomes increasingly shallow and short. He chokes a few times, until then he completely stops breathing.Similar to the effect of poisoning which makes the lungs clogged. This is all the effect of the green plasma from Johann's ethereal blade, which is actually a kind of corrupted mana.Once Raymond dies, of course this corrupted mana disappears too, just like all types of mana and spirit energy, will disappear leaving the dead body.Maybe this technique is not a stro

Dean keeps looking down, by averting his eyes away from Evie’s gaze. And Evie, she keeps observing Dean intently, and she quite understands what he must feel right now.In fact, when she told Dean that she never knew about Dean’s connection with Immanuel Morton in the past, that was all lies.“In Yegristan, I lived in Biffird Valley,” says Evie. “It’s the town where the Miarnins lived, and I'm quite familiar with their characteristics. They entrusted the peace treaty worked out by Leonardo and Immanuel. So it’s quite hard for me to believe they killed my husband.”“What exactly happened there?” asks Dean.“They said it was about the fairness and hierarchy issue,” says Evie. “The Miarnin wanted peace so much that they were willing to throw away their noble status for a peace agreement, and that was quite effective in influen

Even until the next few weeks, the situation in most places in The Democratic State of Yegristan, is still in chaos. Some of the vampires feel so relieved after finding out that they no longer have to drink human blood.But some of them are upset about losing their immortality. And their numbers are much greater, who are now venting their frustration and anger by causing chaos in society.But there are also some of them who do not realize what is happening, recklessly carrying out vandalizing, lootings and robberies, but later ultimately shot dead by the police.The current president is actually a half-blood from the Almas tribe, and he is still affiliated with the rulers of Estuaria.Instead of calming the chaos in his country, he is now in Medreisten, attending a meeting, which is also attended by representatives from two other kingdoms, Aflar and Ustobia.Even after Valery's death, these three countries are still under the influence of the Estuaria government, which is now under Sam

All the zombies in the forest, the dead vampires, Zulfik, and Harley, are now silent, swaying gently with blank faces.They stay like that, at least until all the specters within their bodies come out, and scatter in all directions. And instantly, all these lifeless bodies collapse.All the Manes in this forest are also getting out, seeming to be uncomfortable with the condition of the woods which have been covered in ice.They are interested in the stability in the area around Nimeza's core. The appearance of these Manes later catches Dean's attention.“I can't let them get near that stone.”Dean rushes over to the jet black stone, which is currently still in Valery's hand. Somehow, Valery’s hands are now slowly petrifying.This is what happens to people who lost their drive to live due to the effects of Nimeza's core, just like all the six previous kings of Yegristan who failed in inheriting that stone.Not only does he die, but every organ, cell and molecule in Valery’s body have b

Dean glances around to examine his situation. Suddenly, Namsqeem comes out of the soul shard which Dean keeps under his long blazer.“What is this? Why I feel so heavy?” asks Namsqeem.Dean doesn’t say a word. But at least, he looks so relieved knowing that the situation in Belestia Hill must have been secured.“These undead?” mumbles Namsqeem, seeming so familiar with Valery’s way of thinking. “He is going to use them to give him some space to cast his spells.”“I know,” Dean affirms. “Why don’t you deal with them, so I can handle that man?”Namsqeem makes his move. His sudden appearance has ruined all Valery’s plan. Now Valery needs to find another way to deal with Dean.But suddenly, he sees the arrival of so many missiles in the sky, coming from the east. They look so fast, because time passes with a different flow between inside the dome and outside it.All the missiles explode without being able to penetrate the dome. Yet, Valery still looks so upset, and Dean notices his sour f

Blood spurts from his mouth as his back hits the rocky cliff, where he gets stuck in the cracks caused by the impact.The crack then collapses, and he falls along with those rocks into a fairly large river below.A few moments later, Dean emerges from the river, floating to the edge, before he lands on the river bank, and immediately kneels down while coughing.“That was dangerous,” he mutters.His body releases thick haze, not just the steam of evaporating water from his soaked long blazer, but also the effects of his regeneration skill healing his wounds.There Dean realizes that his self-healing ability is much faster than usual. But still, that is no reason for him to feel safe.This regeneration won’t be able to raise him from death if one lethal attack kills him. Not to mention about the situation in Belestia Hill which he has been worrying about.“I can't be careless now. I have to end this as soon as possible.”Soon, he notices the emergence of fires in the forest. Even though

Zulfik's headless body is still floating while flapping his wings, as is Harley's headless body in his mechanical suit.Both of them are still alive and still able to control their bodies, at least until Valery pulls out the curse of immortality he once placed on them.Two blobs of bituminous liquid come out of Harley and Zulfik's bodies, before evaporating in the air. Only after that, the two headless bodies fall down as lifeless corpses.Apparently, these betrayals have disappointed Valery so much that he no longer wants to trust anyone.“I know you loved sacrificing your pawns to achieve your goals. But why?”Dean asks coldly, speaking in Nimeza language, and it’s effective to draw Valery’s interest.“Why you killed them now when you should be able to use them? Is this how you are going to create peace in the world?”To find Dean so fluent talking in that language, even with the native accent of ancient Zalfari people, Valery replies to him also in Nimeza language.“I don’t need the

Despite his indifferent attitude, believe me, he is really in a precarious condition right now.This is one of the side effects of Nimeza's core on him, which makes him always at peace, completely indifferent to life and death.One of the negative effects is that he has not been taking his fight seriously, which ultimately leads to his current situation.The only thing now which makes him think seriously about his fate is because of the safety of his wife and kid.But on the good side, he can still think calmly despite his situation, taking his time amidst the clouds, as if relaxing on a soft mattress.“Okaay, why don't I try to dig up a little of the memories of those old men?”He closes his eyes, trying to remember, as if what the four ancient apparitions had experienced in the past is his own experience.Unfortunately, they’d never been in a condition like this, and there is not the slightest memory where they had a technique which allowed them to fly.Until then…“Let's try the th

That’s the message given by Valery. And Antonin knows so well how important this warning is. That’s why he only tries to waste time, with so much alertness, without any intention to get close to Dean.He swings the two weapons from a distance, and again releases many ethereal weapons in all directions.These ethereal weapons linger around for a few minutes, spinning and floating randomly around Antonin, like satellites orbiting a planet.“What is he thinking? Is he going to attack me or not?”The movement of those ethereal weapons makes Dean a little confused, because they look more like protection instead of an offensive technique.But then, the ethereal weapons orbiting on the outermost side are getting further away from Antonin. Even though they are still circling around Antonin, they are starting to head towards Dean in their orbits.Dean steps away to avoid it, and then some of the ethereal weapons disappear into the thin air. Even so, Antonin still continues to swing his gryphon

After such a shocking surprise attack, which has destroyed the military ranks complete with their tanks and trucks, the situation suddenly becomes so quiet.Only the sound of moans of pain can be heard, accompanied by the sound of flames shooting out from the burning oil tanks of several trucks.And there is a man in a black long blazer, with most of his head wrapped in a cloth, standing in the middle of the chaos.“Go back to your homes!” he exclaims in a loud voice. “This is the final warning. You will not get anything good even if you win this war. It doesn't mean there will be a chance for you to win it. If you leave now, I’ll guarantee your safety from my wrath.”His voice is so loud, as if he is speaking with a megaphone. It even reaches the ears of a few soldiers in a tank more than 50 meters away.“Who is this guy?”“Who cares? Let’s see if he still can say a word after eating this one!”Soon, the tank open fires, shooting one HEAT (High Explosive Anti-tank) projectile, which

Valery can clearly feel her strong presence, but he is still in the state of confusion at the moment. After all, the last time he met Zamira was already more than two thousand years ago.He just assumes this strong presence is just one of the high-skilled Defteros taking part in the battle in Hullback Town.Until then, one of his pawns, an ancient specter named Shaheen, comes to him to informs about something.“Master! I just felt the present of Namsqeem in Belestia Hill,” he says.“Namsqeem?” Valery mutters curiously, feeling quite familiar with the name.“It’s Cresta’s lovely pet,” Shaheen informs.“Oh, that little one,” Valery sneers.“I don’t think you can call him that way now,” Shaheen reprimands. “It’s been two thousand years already. And there’s another strong spirit creature with him at moment. I’m not so sure if he is a specter or a mane. But there’s something strange with his form. It’s similar to what Cresta did to Namsqeem in the past.”Valery's facial expressions change.
