Luna glanced at his three companions, looking at them nodding their heads, then frowned, looking at the Steven's dead body.
"Don't worry; he had ill intentions toward you." The leader boy spoke and then pointed at Steven hands,
"Look at his hand; he was going to shoot you in the head," the boy explained. Then he glanced at her, waiting for her reply,
Luna was startled, glanced at the gun in Steven's hand, became thoughtful then. She said hesitatingly, "I don't know about technology; my talent has something to do with life, not technology."
The boy's expression got solemn, "Then whose talent does it belong to?"
"Mine," suddenly a voice appeared in the hall.
Jack unknowingly appeared beside him, resting his arm on his shoulder.
Sweat started flowing through the leader boy's forehead. He didn't even notice. A horror filled his heart and his three companions,
Jack glanced at his sweaty face, raised his hand calmly and ordered, "Give me the watch." The leader boy politely passed the watch in Jack hand,
Jack grabbed it, left him walked and appeared beside Luna, While other three boys, backed away, getting ready to attack,
Jack ignored them, grabbed Luna left hand and put the watch on her wrist.
Looking at her bowing head, as if she had done something wrong, Jack shook his head. glanced at the boys, saying, "You said your talent is stealing. My talent is manufacturing."
"Also, what are the talents of the other three friends of yours?" Jack asked while pointing toward his three companions who were, ready for attack.
The leader boy hesitated, then nodded toward his three friends, All three of them nodded, then looked at Jack and explained their abilities one by one.
"I have a power talent; I can instantly increase my power double for 1 minute."
"I can heal my injuries faster."
"I can change any non-living object into paper," the third one touched the table, which turned into paper, then scattered on the ground.
After third companion finished, The leader boy continued, "I am Stephen, and they are Hob, Leo, and Sid. We are Neon City resident, studying in the same university."
A smile appeared on Stephen face, then added, "My ability is to steal; perhaps you've heard of it just now. We can establish the strongest human base in this city."
Jack nodded and inquired, "Very well, do you have any plans?" The boy responded, "First, we'll gather like-minded talented users. Then, we'll establish our base. Also, I heard on the transmission that there is a huge sanctuary in the east of the capital city. We can go there, with our talents, we can make this central territory like it was before; free from those monsters," Stephen, elaborated.
Jack raised his eyebrows in surprise, nodded in understanding and introduced, "Well, I am Jack, and this is my wife Luna. I have technology talent, and she has body talent with regeneration."
Luna was startled but remained silent, nodding toward Stephen.
Surprised, Stephen nodded thoughtfully, 'Wife? She is married. Also, regeneration is a good talent.'
Then glanced at Jack and Luna solemnly, "Well, I invite you both to join our group."
Jack considered for a moment, then shook his head, "We have to refuse your invitation. We are going to leave Neon city soon."
Stephen nodded, took a deep breath, and apologized, "Well, if you return to Neon City, you can meet me at this hotel. Also, I am sorry for my rude behavior before,
Mrs. Jack."
Luna shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter, You had no ill intentions, anyway."
After a while,
Jack and Luna walked outside the building, with Luna confused about her encounter. Jack then stopped, pulled out the RV from the storage space, and walked inside with Luna and navigated away,
While the four boys stared at them through the glass. "He lied about his and that girl Abilities, He has a space talent, that's why he appeared so quietly beside me, Also, Jack and Luna, I have heard such a name somewhere before." Stephen spoke thoughtfully,
"Boss, why didn't you steal their abilities?" one of the boys spoke. Stephen shook his head, "That guy is a monster. We all would have died instantly before any movement. Also I can't steal the ability without basic knowledge."
Looking at the RV, Stephen clenched his fist, and a chill flickered through his eyes, "Upon his arrival, we lost our initiative. Remember, he will be our biggest obstacle in conquering this world." His companions were surprised and nodded solemnly.
Inside the RV, Jack navigated, glancing at the silent Luna, "He would have stolen your ability if I hadn't arrived in time. Don't tell the details of your abilities truthfully."
Luna was startled and shocked; her face turned pale.
Wiping away the sweat, her heart was horrified, she thought, 'I wanted to gain immortal life. If my talent was stolen, then what would I do? How could I live forever with my husband?'
Then, guiltily apologized, "Husband, I am sorry. I didn't know humans would become so bad."
Jack smiled and nodded, then reassured by grabbing her hand, "Just beware of humans more than any other creatures in the end."
Luna nodded, took a deep breath, then her expression became solemn, "I understand."
"Ha ha ha, don't be so serious. You are my wife; with me here, nothing will happen to you," Jack laughed loudly easing the atmosphere.
Luna smiled and nodded happily, then strolled toward the kitchen in the RV to prepare something for lunch.
As Jack observed the nightwalkers around, his mouth curved into a chilly smile. He mused, "Stephen, who will believe your lies, King?" The stealing talent intrigued him. "I know the reason why you were so jealous of me King, because you couldn't steal my talent, heh."
An evil smile appeared on his face, "Collect talents for me," While looking at the front,
"Whaat?," Luna exclaimed, snapping back to reality. Jack, noticing her surprised expression, stopped the RV and peered in the direction she was looking, to his right.
Both Jack and Luna were taken aback by the wide and heavy dark weather with lightning flashing.
However, their surprise wasn't due to the weather but the sight of a humongous flying shadow flickering above the dark clouds. Shading the whole land around.
Feeling a sense of suppression in the air, Jack's face changed. A 7th or 8th Level monster, He swiftly started the RV and navigated toward the downtown area at a fast speed. He consulted maps and routes, eventually halting the RV in an abandoned parking area.
Scanned the surroundings and then glanced at the dark clouds far away and heavy atmosphere reduced a lot, the monster will not notice the disappearing RV here,
Jack thought.
In an instant, the RV along with Jack and Luna vanished.
Inside the ring world, Jack sighed in relief. He looked at Luna, who was also frightened, walked toward her and hugged her. "Husband, are there such huge monsters in the end? How will we human survive?" she asked softly.
A thoughtful expression appeared on Jack's face as he replied while kissing her forehead, "One day those humongous monsters will be like babies in your eyes. Mark my words."
Luna fell silent, nodded and said, "I believe you. Also, lunch is ready."
After eating lunch, Jack remained in the ring world, passing the time with Luna.
