Chapter 12 - Who Disrespected Who?

"So this is the Red Flame Star… Interesting" said Odell

"It has the feel of the fire element here but it seems that something is mix in" said Odell 

Looking around as he landed in a remote location close to where both the bead and the first princess were. He proceeded to walk over to the road that leads to the city that was still modern looking. Difference is they are more keen to cultivate than technology but it doesn't mean they don't use it. 

"Not bad they're not that far behind from the mortal realm in technology even though they can cultivate much easier" said Odell 

"Let's explore while I'm here"

[But first let's explore we'll meet soon enough] though Odell

"I'll use a different name since it'll confuse some people once they see the both of us together… hmm should I alter my appearance" 

Saying that he decided to change his appearance to an average looking guy with black hair and brown eyes. He decided to change his height to 1.76m with the same build but it looks like he's not strong at all. Wearing normal looking clothes and shoes as he made water to look at himself.

"Not bad this should make things interesting… now what should my name be" said Odell

"Hmm how about Warren Black" 

[Now that, that's finished let's explore]

Walking along the road he saw a sign that said welcome to the city of Rosentin. Once he reached it he could feel as he passed through the city's barrier.

[It seems this barrier is like all other barriers and there's a function that activates if someone flies into the city even Heavenly Immortals can be trapped for a few minutes.. Interesting] 

Since nothing could detect him, see him or understand him if he didn't allow it, he didn't think much about it anymore. Looking around as he sees lots of different races he could tell this was one of those neutral cities on this star.

People who saw him didn't really care, he was just like a lot of people around here so nothing new. He soon came to a stop in front of a food stall after smelling the delicious fragrance in the air. And to him getting to eat delicious food is number one on the priority list.

"Let's eat first, this fragrance smells too good to pass up" said Warren 

He went to where a small line was as there were people eating on the tables provided. Looking around and seeing all the great looking dishes made him excited. 

[I wonder how different the currency is here… I might have to create my own money if so]

As he was three people away from the front he looked to see the money the people of this realm used. Seeing that the currency is basically the same, he was lucky to have some physical currency with him since he created it before coming to this realm on a whim.

As it was about to be his turn a group of ten people who looked to be in their mid to late 20s started to talk aggressively to the middle aged man who runs this stall.

"Hey old man this is our last time telling you to hand over the fee you owe us or else this stall won't be here anymore" said a young man with a smirk 

"Yeah old man hand it over or you could hand over your little employees over to us hehe" said another young man

"Hehe Dave that's not a bad idea so old man either give us the money or your employees" said the young man again

"I.." started the middle aged man but stopped because he saw an ordinary young man with average looks walk up to order his food while everyone else was either nervous or confused. 

Nervous because this was the biggest gang in the city and they were rumored to have connections to one of the top clans in the city. The young man that looked like he didn't have any background and just looked ordinary, shocked them at how nonchalant and easygoing he is as he walked past them. 

The lead guy and the other members stopped talking to the man as they turned their attention towards Warren. Seeing some nobody disrespect them by ignoring them and walking right past them to order.

They believe when ever they are around all people should stop and pay attention to them. But looking at Warren made them mad that there was someone bold enough to ignore them.

"Hey kid this isn't a place for you so leave now" said the young man who spoke first to the stall owner

"This kid doesn't seem to be from around here, just look at what he's wearing" 

"Hehe this kid sure is bold to ignore the Dark Wolf Gang, he must have a death wish or something"

"Maybe we should teach him a lesson that this city isn't as welcoming as he thinks" 

"Rex, go teach him a lesson it only needs one to deal with a weakling kid like him"

"Yes boss" said Rex while grinning towards Warren who has yet to pay attention to them

"This kid is really unlucky" said one of the customers

"Yeah that's the Dark Wolf Gang that's rumored to be backed by one of the strongest clans in the city"

"Tsk,tsk poor kid to just get here and already have a conflict"

"And sadly it's with them, he won't live after today as I heard they are really ruthless to those who disrespect them in anyway"

"Looks like the kid is frozen in fear he hasn't moved or said anything since being called out"

The employees around Warren were shocked and scared seeing one of the gang members coming towards this seemingly ordinary looking boy. As they were scared they saw that Warren had an expression as if he was thinking, which puzzled them.

It made them [think what are you doing, don't you see the situation, you made the Dark Wolf Gang angry and now they are going to teach you a lesson]. And we all know it doesn't stop at just a lesson so run away. They thought.

The middle aged man said something which surprised everyone around 

"Stop, he's my nephew and deaf so he doesn't know what's going on. I apologize on his behalf"

[Hmm what should I eat, everything looks so good hmm] thought Warren while he didn't care for the people around him

"Old man he's your nephew and deaf huh" said the young man in the lead

"Y-yes he is" said the middle aged man

"I see Rex, Murf" shouted the young man

"Yes boss" said the both of them

"Break both of their legs and arms" said the young man

"Hehe okay boss"

"W-what, w-why I said I'll apologize on his behalf"

"Oh I heard you but do you believe I will believe that obvious lie huh"

"I-I didn't…"

"Old man you want to know how I know you have nothing to do with that boy"

"What do you mean"

"It's because your employees had confused expressions when you said it and if you think that saying it's because I didn't mention it to them about him coming today then that's even more of a lie as you didn't warn him before"

"It was a last minute thing so I didn't have time to"

"Haha really but you knew we were coming today though, you had plenty of time to tell him so that tells me you have nothing to do with him or just don't care about you so called nephew am I right Juden"

"I…" started Juden

"Enough you two make sure they never be able to walk or use their arms again in this life"

"Yes boss"

"What..don't I have this stall to run and…."

"That's too bad looks like we'll have to get our money in a different way then hehe" laughed the young man as he looked at the female employees lustfully

They felt frightened and disgusted by all of them giving them lustful looks. As the two guys that were ordered to crippled Juden and Warren everyone thought that it was a waste for such a great cook to be cripple and that they'll have to find another stall to eat at now. But soon they all heard someone talking and it made them put up weird expressions because of it. 

"I got it I'll order one of everything hehe can't go wrong with that" laughed Warren as he finally figured out what he wanted even though it made him ignore what was going on around him

"Is something wrong with that kid" said one of the onlookers

"I-I think so"

"Does he think he can laugh and order in a time like this" 

"Looks like he really doesn't take the Dark Wolf Gang seriously" 

"He won't be taking anything seriously after angering them even more now, he won't live after today"

"This kid really doesn't put us in his eyes well soon he'll be under everyone's eyes forever, Rex you know what to do" said the irritated young man

"I know.. Hey kid, blame yourself for not knowing who you shouldn't disrespect" said Rex as he flashed towards Warren, being at the Upper layer of the Mana Immortal Realm.

He had the thought of first crippling Warren then killing him painfully and slowly 

Seeing the young man name Rex moved towards the ordinary young man all the onlookers including the employees and the stall owner had looks of pity, remorse and slight anger. But didn't let any of it be noticed even though some of them were also mana cultivators.

They still didn't dare to go against them because of that rumor backing and for all they knew it could be true. 

Seeing as the guy moved fast enough for everyone to see once was in front of Warren he smirked as Warren still didn't turn around to look at them so as he was grabbing to break Warren's arms something shocking happened as they heard Juden yell watch out to Warren.

"Too late, your arm is mine boy" said Rex

Once grabbing his arm Rex channel mana around his hand to break Warren's arm but as he swung towards his arm they all heard Warren say in a monotone voice as he turned his head and caught Rex's hand in his 

"Is this how this city welcomes guests…I'm disappointed" 

"Wha… How.. Let go of me now or…" said Rex as he could fathom as to how and why he couldn't move his hand out of this seemingly weak and manaless boy

"Or what, you're the one who attack me for no reason and you want me to let you go after threaten me to how stupid do you think I am" said Warren 

"Kid I advise you to let him go or everyone you care about will end up dead" said the young man whose their boss

"Oh is that right well let me ask you why did your friend attack me out of nowhere for I came here to eat"

"That's because you disrespected the Dark Wolf Gang and should be taught a lesson" said the young man in a calm voice but inside he was shocked just like everyone here because even though that punch wasn't strong enough to kill an ordinary person it was strong enough to break their bones though. And looking at this makes him believe this young man is actually a mana cultivator and he's either those old monsters who retain their youth or he's a genius from some other city's clan that is stronger than this city's clans.

"Is that it… who is this Dark Kitten Gang you mention and when did I disrespect them" said Warren

"Y-you… It's us. I'm the Vice leader of the Dark Wolf Gang and my older brother is the leader.. My name is Krowon and my brother is Bander" 

[I shouldn't be impatient first, I'll try to see if he has any powerful background we should be concerned about but if not I'll kill him myself and find anyone related to him and toture them slowly before killing them]

"Hmm well Krowon how did I disrespect your gang" asked Warren

"By ignoring us when we…" 

"You know what"

"What?"

"I don't care" as he said that he snapped his finger and made all but one person from the Dark Wolf Gang and that was they guy name Rex who was slowly losing all will to move as he saw his boss and fellow gang members turn to ash and blew away into a non-existent wind.

It scared everyone around as they slowly backed away with fear and disbelief at what they couldn't understand. Looking towards Warren they didn't believe it was him but judging by the fact that he didn't look shocked or scared made them think it was either his doing or a protector.

Warren looked back to the person named Rex which made him gulp in cold sweat as he looked in the eyes of this young man and he also had questions like everyone else.

"So who disrespected who?" said Warren
