Chapter 53 - 53: Don't Talk Nonsense When You Planned To Run Away

"Hmm~ How do I court death?" Arius tilted his head and asked.

The bald man wearing a black suit: …

The lackeys: …

Elaine was trying to keep her face straight and tried her best not to laugh when she saw the confused expression of the gangsters.

Mother Caldwell felt that this child was a little naughty.

I wonder whose child he is.

The bald man wearing a black suit flared up in anger. He pointed at Arius and shouted, "Beat him! Beat him to death!"

The lackeys rushed towards Arius at once. A few of them even took out knives from their pockets.

Arius retreated out of the convenience stall.

Once he moved, the gangsters also followed him out. They surrounded Arius Unfortunately; they were only normal people while Arius was a martial warrior. Even if he had been just a martial disciple, dealing with these weaklings would be a piece of cake.

He swung his fist and hit two gangsters at once. He knocked them to the floor, and a few teeth fell out of their mouth.

Strength*1

Strength*1

Spirit*0.1

Oh? Normal people will drop attributes too? There's even the spirit attribute? Arius was surprised.

"Be careful! Behind you!" Elaine rushed out and wanted to help. She was an intermediate stage martial disciple, after all. She could deal with these gangsters.

But Arius didn't give her a chance to act as he kicked his leg behind. The three gangsters with knives in their hands, who wanted to slash his waist, flew three meters out.

They clutched their chests. Blood seeped out of the corner of their lips.

Arius hadn't used his full force. Still, the power of his kick was too much for the gangsters to handle.

Strength*1

Strength*1

Strength*1

"You're a martial disciple!" The bald man's expression changed. He didn't expect that his lackeys couldn't even take a single blow from Arius.

"Brat, you're forcing me to act." The bald man wearing a black suit took off his coat and walked in front of Arius.

"I'm not forcing you to do anything. You don't have to fight," Arius said.

The bald man was stunned. He quickly shook his head to clear the unnecessary thoughts before shouting angrily, "F**k, don't talk glibly."

He circled Arius, seemingly looking for Arius's weakness.

Arius stood on the spot and waited for him to act first. However, after circling two rounds, the bald man suddenly ran off…

He was running away?

That was right, he ran away! He abandoned his lackeys and ran away without turning back.

To show his respect for the man's action, Arius was slightly shocked.

Lin Chuhan and Mother Lin were stunned too.

When the bald man's lackeys saw their boss running away like a happy pig, they suddenly didn't know what expression to give.

"Young lad, this matter hasn't ended. Just wait and see!"

The bald man quickly ran to a corner of the road. Once he felt that he was a safe distance, he stopped, turned around, and shouted.

Arius shook his head. He scanned the floor around him and picked up a brick.

His action scared the bald man. He turned around and ran away in fright.

On the other side, Arius calmly weighed the brick. He took aim for a second and threw the brick out.

Whee~

"Ah!"

The bald man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

Spirit*0.1

Did it really hit his head? Arius looked at the spirit attribute that just dropped and pondered to himself.

For some reason, when the lackeys saw this scene, they felt a little elated.

Arius slowly walked forward and squatted down to look at the bald man. "This is why you shouldn't talk nonsense when you're running away."

The bald man wearing a black suit covered his head. He felt his vision getting blurry. He took some time to get rid of this feeling before he raised his head.

He glared at Arius fiercely.

"You're dead, brat. You're dead. We have martial disciples in our company too. They're advanced stage martial disciples, and there are a few of them. Just wait to die."

"Hmph, you're quite fierce." Arius smiled. He raised the brick and smashed it on the bald man's face again.

Crack!

Splurt!

The bald man's nose broke, and blood splattered out. It was so painful that he kept screaming sharply like a pig being slaughtered.

Spirit*0.1

Arius's eyes lit up.

"I don't know if I'm dead, but I know that you're definitely dead."

While speaking, Arius raised the brick again under the other party's horrified gaze and smashed it down.

At the start, the bald man was still quite tough. His gaze was fierce, and he glared at Arius like a ruthless wolf.

But, now, he was scared. This youth in front of him looked like a high school student with a smile on his face. His expression was calm and composed, but when he decided to act, it was really terrifying.

"Stop hitting me! I'm wrong, I will not do it again, please let me go…"

The bald man's face was severely bruised and swollen. He couldn't speak properly, so he sounded a little awkward. There was only fear left in his mind.

This young man was too ruthless!

He was really ruthless.

Ouch~ this is so painful!

"I didn't want to hit you before, but I feel that you're not very convinced by me. So, I had to hit you reluctantly," Arius said after he stopped beating the man.

He didn't want to stop hitting the bald man. Instead, he had to stop because after dropping some spirit attributes, the bald man stopped dropping them no matter how much he hit him. What a pity!

In total—Spirit*0.4

The bald man looked at the sky. Suddenly, he wanted to cry.

Since you're so reluctant, you don't have to hit me. No one is forcing you.

Mom, this person must be a devil! I want to go home!

"So, are you convinced or not?" asked Arius.

"Yes! I'm convinced!" The bald man nodded hurriedly.

Arius dumped the brick on his head again.

"Ah! Why are you hitting me now?" The man screamed in terror. He was confused.

"Do you think you're playing Chess? Who's asking you if you 'won' or not?" Arius widened his eyes.

"I…" The bald man was extremely frustrated. He even wanted to vomit blood. He kept quiet for a long time before saying a single word, "Yes!"

"That's good." Arius nodded.

Bang!

Unexpectedly, the bald man suffered a knock on his head again.

"Why?" Tears welled up in his eyes. He felt so mistreated, but he had nowhere to vent it.

"For no reason. I just don't like you," Arius explained calmly.

The bald man: …

"Give me the loan receipt."

The bald man obediently took out the loan receipt. Arius called Elaine over and passed it to her. "Take a look at it and see if this is the correct one."

Elaine went back and confirmed with her mother. She returned and nodded. "That's right. This is the one my dad and mom wrote."

Arius took it over and scanned it. He then mocked, "They borrowed 15 thousand, and you wanted them to return 30 thousand? This is much easier than being a robber."

He squatted down and waved the brick in front of the bald man's face. "In the past, I met five people who wanted to rob a bank. They wanted to kill me, but do you know what happened to them in the end?"

The bald man suddenly remembered a piece of news he had heard a few days ago.

A few robbers who robbed a bank got killed by someone!

He heard that the person who killed them was a hostage. Also, the hostage was a high school student!

The bald man looked at Arius in fear. He couldn't help but tremble, his heart pounding in his chest.

"Bang!" Arius suddenly exerted force in his fingers and broke the brick in his hand. He said, "Look, this is what happened to them."

"Brother… I know my mistake. I was really wrong. Please spare me."

The bald man really wanted to cry. He had come to get a loan back and tease a young lady along the way. Why did he have to offend this devil?

He must have forgotten to look at the calendar when he went out this morning!

That's right, this must be the reason.

Arius didn't scare him anymore. He said to Arius, "Transfer the money to him. 15,100 USD. The additional 100 is the interest."

"Do you have any objections?" The last sentence was directed at the bald man wearing a black suit.

"No, no!" The other party shook his head in a hurry. At this moment, he didn't dare to have any objection. He still wanted his head to be on his neck.

He had heard that those robbers' heads were smashed into meat paste by the hostage…

Oh my god, this was so scary!

Elaine hurriedly transferred the money.

Arius took out a lighter and lit up the loan receipt right in front of the bald man. He burnt the whole piece of paper.
