After leaving the base camp, Rocky wandered around the vast Evian City with a purposeful stride just thinking about where he could rebuild his new laboratory. After browsing through many areas, he recalled a street in the brothel district where Sheridan took him the last time he was here and so began moving in that direction. Once he reached, he spotted a bunch of people gathering. This group seemed increasingly curious about something weird unfolding there.
"Hey! How can you..." The sound of a woman's angry voice could be distinctly heard coming from the crowd.
"I absolutely love doing this. The question is what can you possibly do to me? I want to see whether she is actually Miss Laney. After all, you are just a maid. It's none of your business, so stay out of it!" An extremely intimidating and domineering voice responded.
"Laney?" The moment Rocky heard that name, he grew serious and suddenly jolted into action. He moved swiftly making his way through the crowd. Amidst the crowd stood three men, with the indistinct breath of spirit manipulators. It also seemed that they possessed power of the third or fourth grade at the Mortal Stage. Apart from them, there also stood a vain sissy who was dressed rather excessively. He was blocking the two women. It was evident this foppish man was misbehaving in the street and creating a scene.
While the rest of the people gathered there were all ordinary. They kept pointing at the ill-mannered man yet no one dared to lay a finger on him. It was evident, they were all scared of him.
Of the two women, the one dressed in a maid's uniform stood in front of the other woman in a protective stance. The other woman was modestly dressed and hidden behind an intricate purple veil. Yet despite the light veil, one could get a glimpse of her radiating beauty, especially her expressive gleaming eyes. Just one glance was enough to be drawn into the world within her deep eyes.
Carefully yet intensely, Rocky looked at the woman hidden behind the light veil. He was sure this was Laney, the most popular courtesan of Geisha House. He had met her once earlier, a meeting he would not forget.
"Sir, I am most certainly not Laney. I am sorry you have gotten the wrong person!" People could hear Laney speak out to the sissy. Her feminine and melodious voice was quite mesmerizing.
"Miss Laney, you can stop with the pretense! Even if you conceal your entire face, I will be able to recognize you. With much dedication, I cherish you every night, yet you don't even bother giving me a chance to be alone with you. It was fate that brought us together, which means we are destined for each other. One cannot deny such a wonderful turn of events! Why don't you accompany me to my house and play a tune for me? With this we can nurture our relationship. From this moment forward, I will take you as my seventh concubine and I think you will be the most suitable one yet
anding an apology. He seemed quite self-righteous.
The three spirit manipulators were blinded by arrogance and they were too weak to recognize the breath of spirit manipulator coming from Rocky. Besides, they didn't even realize that they had invited their own doom by provoking Rocky.
"So, I will count till three and give you a fair chance to disappear now, or else..." Rocky warned the three spirit manipulators in a calm yet intimidating tone.
"Boy, since you seem so eager to die, I will give you exactly what you are begging for!" The tallest man grew furious and shouted upon hearing Rocky's threat. Blinded by rage, he closed his fingers into a powerful fist which drew in the little spiritual power he possessed and hit Rocky.
All the people, who were witnessing this fight unfold, were increasingly worried about Rocky. In the eyes of ordinary people, the spirit manipulators were extremely powerful and were so strong that they could kill a cow with just one punch. So they assumed Rocky was in grave danger.
But to everyone's surprise, and more so for the spirit manipulators, Rocky casually matched the tallest man's powerful punch with an even more powerful retaliation.
"Is that all you are capable of doing? Not worth the hype now, was it?" Rocky matched the tallest man's attack with a growing sneer.
Upon watching what happened, the other two spirit manipulators grew increasingly shocked. They were stunned that Rocky caught the tallest man's punch so easily.
"You can just fuck off!" Once the other two spirit manipulators were close to Rocky, they heard a distinctively loud and sharp snap. Suddenly, his body pulsated with spiritual power. Almost immediately, a strong cyclone circled his whole body. The next second the two spirit manipulators hit the cyclone only to be blown off their feet with a thud onto the ground. With the force of the blow, they spat blood from their mouths and fell into a deep coma.
