Gabriel, who had been gloomy because she thought her life would end up in prison, brightened up when she saw Dylan here. "What are you doing here, Dylan?" Dylan walked closer so that their conversation wouldn't be overheard by the other person. "You haven't answered my question yet. Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to live a better life? But you ended up here instead." Gabriel tugged on Dylan's lapel. "Do you think someone like me from level IV can easily live a good life like you mean? I got caught for trying to live a good life like you said." "How?" asked Dylan in disbelief. "I was trying to get the balance of someone who was blackmailing others at level III. But the police saw me. So they caught me and caught the blackmailer too." Dylan was speechless because Gabriel's actions were out of this world. "Isn't there anything else you can do to help people?" "How can I help others if I still have to help myself?" Dylan held his dizzy head at Gabriel's words. She was too blu
Alan stood still in his place. "Don't you both have enough money to pay the penalty? I thought you guys were rich. That kind of money shouldn't be a big problem for you." This is the time when Dylan started to launch his strikes at Alan. And this is the first time Dylan had the chance to reply to Alan's insulting words. "You started all this first. You raised the war flag to me. Even when you didn't know if I was a good person or not, you decided to put something in my drink. Then when I agreed to your challenge and I won, you didn't accept." Dylan is going to make Alan remember everything he has done to Dylan in this parallel world."You tried to take back the money I got from the bet you made. But since I couldn't possibly give it to you freely, you kidnapped me and forced me to give you all my money. You even almost killed a cop. Don't you know what punishment you'll receive if you do that?" "You don't deserve to be at level II," Alan said emotionally. "You shouldn't level up a
Dylan stopped walking, "You intend to give yourself up? I'd appreciate it." "No asshole!" snapped Alan. "You said I only have a limited time, so I'd like to talk to Haily to find a deal." Dylan mentally cheered. He knew that Alan's balance wasn't enough to pay the penalty for Haily as well. So Alan's request to meet Haily was definitely because Alan wanted to merge their balances. "But if you go inside the police station, it means you're turning yourself in because you're wanted by them. Is that alright?" Dylan asked to confirm. There's no other option for Alan but to follow Dylan's play. "I don't care about the cops." Dylan immediately acted quickly by arresting Alan. He handcuffed Alan and took him into the office. Again, everyone except the police were shocked that their favorite soccer athlete was in the police station with both hands cuffed. Because of this, the unit chief had a headache and he came over to see Dylan. "Dylan, how did you find him?" "He turned himself in,
Alan was returned to the police station after he brought the four system devices he had. The total balance was 70 million dollars. It remained the same as the balance Alan had shown to Dylan when he kidnapped Dylan. "Wait, I want to see Haily again before handing over the penalty fee." Dylan stopped walking towards the interrogation room to collect all of Alan's balances. "What do you want to talk to Haily about? Isn't it over already? You're going to end up playing games with the police." "Come on, are you afraid of the two of us?" asked Alan dismissively. Dylan clasped his hands together at his sides. "Just five minutes and this time I'll be with you." Dylan led Alan to Haily's temporary cell. Although Haily's time limit to level down was running out, she showed no fear at all. Moreover, she no longer had any system devices because those were taken by the staff. "Haily, I've taken all my system devices." Alan showed her the watches, rings, and bracelets he had."Good job, dear
Dylan succeeded in avoiding the bullets fired by Alan. At this time Alan felt confused because he heard Dylan's voice but he didn't see Dylan's body. So he pointed his gun in all directions. But since here is a resident area, Dylan didn't want the bullets hit civilians. "I'm here." Dylan moved a pole a few meters in front of him. He continued to attract Alan's attention until he arrived at the large field that Dylan had used for shooting practice. Dylan brought Alan and Haily there. And finally Dylan made himself visible again. "Are you looking for me?" Dylan pointed his gun at Haily. "How does it feel being a wanted person? Is it like a movie you're starring, Haily?" "Fuck you Dylan! I saved your ass yesterday but you don't know how to thank me," Haily said. Dylan giggled in response. "Wasn't that part of your plan? Why should I thank you for a plan that my enemy made and aims to kill me?" Dylan advanced without hesitation. "Put down that gun while I still have my tolerance!"
"I am never gonna put myself in your hands until you tell me who the fuck you are." Haily still tried to escape every time Dylan approached. "I am Dylan Brodie, level II police officer. You also witnessed my introduction at the 6 monthly meeting. Why are you looking at me like I'm so scary?" "An ordinary human wouldn't be able to use power without a system device. But you can even heal from your wounds without the system device." Haily broke off one of the tree branches so it had a sharp tip and pointed it at her neck. "I will never give up on a species that I don't even know." Haily slowly stepped down to the ground. Now Dylan's job becomes complicated because Haily didn't threaten him but instead wanted to kill herself. Dylan didn't know the effect of him using the abilities without a system device was this big when seen by others. They are even frightened. "I'm just an ordinary human like you," said Dylan in the end. He also followed Haily's movements, not flying anymore. " Ar
Dylan was on time to arrest Alan and Haily because not long after, another police officer arrived.Dylan also asked Gabriel to stay away from the forest area as a sweep might be organized to catch another of Alan's gang."Officer Dylan, are you okay?" a young police officer named Han checked on Dylan's condition. "I'll help you to the hospital. You need to be treated immediately.""I'm fine. It's just a small wound and I can treat it myself," Dylan denied. He still admitted that he was injured so his coworker wouldn't get suspicious. Because it was impossible for Dylan to say he wasn't hurt when there the blood on his shirt. They would be suspicious if Dylan evaded."Are the others going to carry on searching?" asked Dylan."Yes, we're going through the whole forest." Han patted Dylan's shoulder proudly. "It's because of you that we've been able to find the lair where the level IV people are hiding. That old man in the cottage is a level IV person. He's been hiding there for years. An
The chief pulled Alan away and kept him far away from Dylan. "Hey, take care of him properly. How could you let a criminal say that to the police?" The chief scolded Han, the police officer who brought Haily and Alan. Dylan didn't want to think about Alan's words because no matter how much he tried to take Dylan's place, it wouldn't be easy to do because Dylan wasn't easy to be in his current position either. Dylan followed the chief's steps into the building. The building had very tall pillars with circular seats. The judge and prosecutor's place was on the big podium while the suspect would sit in the middle of the room. So anyone could see them clearly. In addition to legal punishment, it was social punishment for Haily and Alan. Dylan sat in the bottom row near the perpetrator and straight in front of the judge. Shortly after Haily and Alan took their places, the judge and prosecutor entered the room. Other government officers began to fill the empty seats. The judge opened
