Chapter 102: Crimes
It took them over an hour and a half to arrive at home, and not long after that, all the things he had purchased earlier were delivered.
Then for the next few hours, Lucian just placed all the new things in the house, he even bought a small bed for her, and many other things.
When it was time for dinner, Lucian ordered a few things. Tess wasn\'t a picky eater and she just ate whatever was given to her, she stayed silent most of the time and just lingered around Lucian, watching him silently.
There was a separate room for her, though it still only had a few things. When it was night Lucian brought Tess to her new room, though she seemed nervous to sleep there on her new bed.
But until she fell asleep Lucian stayed with her, then he closed her door and walked towards his own room.
" Hoo My plans changed completely today because of her, but now I can go outside to do some practice, Zero when can I enter the next Chasm? " Lucian asked while he was choosing clothes.
[ Do you wish to enter the 1st phase Chasm or 2nd? ]
" It would be better if it\'s 2nd Phase, I would grow faster that way and whether or not it is cleared yet, doesn\'t matter. " He replied, then he took out the mask from Zero\'s storage.
[ Then you will have to wait for six days and on the seventh day you will be able to enter a Chasm that has been cleared, it\'s difficult to find ones which are still not cleared, the one you entered before was a strange occurence. ]
" Okay, now it\'s time for some hunting. " Lucian spoke as he changed into different clothes.
******
In every part of the world, each and every day countless crimes are committed. Even at this moment, someone might be getting murdered, kidnapped and many more types of crimes.
Some are so heinous that they could shake not only a country but the entire world and in the history, we have all witnessed many such types of crimes.
Most people want such things to stop but either they can\'t do anything about it or won\'t do anything, and when something similar happens to them, it is only then they understand what it means to be a victim.
Many of the crimes don\'t even see the light of the day, a lot of women have been killed and not even their bodies were found out not to mention the people responsible for it.
A simple crime not only destroys a person but an entire family, it could take their happiness away and the future they so joyfully plans, all that\'s left after it is sadness, regret, anger and pain.
Some people commit crimes because of accidents, some commit them because of their adrenaline and moment\'s rage and there are quite a lot who just enjoy seeing others in pain and suffering.
There was an incident where a man carrying a gun was running away from police, he hid inside a house where a normal family was living, and the next day the entire family was found dead, and not even the children were spared.
And the law that is supposed to protect us has long been corrupted, most people who have the roles to protect us are the ones who make it easier for criminals to commit crimes.
In the current time, a lot of people still trust the law even if it is unfair and even if the way it treats the rich and poor is unfair but people still try to believe in the law after all it is the only barrier that\'s keeping the criminals in check.
Yet most of the time, law fails its people and lets a person who had committed horrendous crimes in the past live normally in the society, they just need to have money and even the worst crime could be over looked.
They would receive small to no punishment and there won\'t be anything the people would be able to do, even if they feel frustrated whether they try to protest or file petitions.
That\'s why people always like real life superheroes who protect others but much more than them they like the ones who punish the evil, even if they break the law to punish a criminal, most of the public would stand with that individual.
In his past life, among the various things that Lucian put in his bucket list, there was one thing that included destroying such people, like an assassin in the darkness though much more brutal.
At that time it was just a fantasy of his, but now those criminals were the perfect dummies for Lucian to practice, he wouldn\'t even feel guilt while killing that type of people and this way he would be able to create his first persona that is going to shock the world.
Lucian was wearing completely black clothes, there was a mask on his face, he stood on top of a building on the 1st floor, at night the dark alleys are the ones which are the most dangerous.
[ I have shown you the details and locations of all the crimes that are being committed right now, you can start. ]
"..." Lucian was looking into a dark alley, where two men were dragging a woman, who kept trying to scream and get away from them.
But it was of no use, she was completely powerless in front of them they pulled her deeper into the alley and were about to destroy her everything.
And the next day that girl would would either become a corpse or a living corpse, not everyone can overcome a past like this.
\' I so wish scum like these face the women from the another earth. \' Lucian thought.
In the next moment, he released black flames that covered his entire body, only his eyes and the menacing smile were visible through the black flames, which had a dangerous presence to it.
Lucian felt as if the more he used these flames the more he gets connected to it, though he didn\'t notice any changes since they were so small for now, but it was affecting his mind, giving him violent thoughts without him realising it.
" Shut up bitch, weren\'t you showing your ass around in the bar earlier to everyone? Isn\'t this what you were hoping for when you wore clothes like this? "
The first man spoke, as he held both of the hands of the woman and with the other tried to silence her.
" This one looks quite fine, last time that woman was all saggy and only had a pretty face, it totally ruined my mood kekeke " The other man spoke, both of them were wearing leather jackets and had long hair.
They seemed to be in their forties and had several scars all over their faces, their faces were just as ugly as the acts done by them.
