From that moment on, My Father, Edward Saunders left the Village, and the peace I thought I finally achieved was gone.
Nine years later in the capital city of Astaven. The City was lavished due to the alliance formed nine years ago. While our village just suffered and was not even looked at.
The Citizens of Astaven walk around in peace and they all suddenly hear Gunshots. Trucks and Bikes arrive at the scene.
Bandits jump off and point the pedestrians with guns.
"If you all value your lives then drop your food and valuables in this bag." One of the Bandits said.
The Pedestrians start to place to place their food and valuables in the bag the Bandits offer.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, A Mysterious man in a hoodie walks into a hotel and shoots the security in the leg, dropping him to the floor.
Everyone panics and they immediately drop to the floor and place their hands at the back of their heads.
The man walks into a special room in the hotel and sees a couple having intercourse.
"What the Fu--"
The man having intercourse tries to the hooded man but both he and his woman are shot down.
The Hooded man clears the body out of his way and walks into a bathroom and sees a water tank.
"Hauling all the water for yourself, Just how selfish can you noble Scumbags get." The man in a hoodie said.
The man picks the tank up and punches a huge hole in the wall. He jumps out and sees the Military police lying in wait for him.
"Tch, They're already here."
The Police start shooting at the man but the man casts a wind spell to slow down the bullets.
He then pulls out a gun and starts shooting at every cop while surrounding himself with the wind.
He walks past the Dead bodies and hauls up the tank in a truck, and shrinks the truck. He places the small truck in his pocket, climbs his bike, and rides away.
He looks back and he sees he's being chased by Military trucks. He makes it out of the city and sees Bandit trucks waiting for him at a distance.
"Tch, Those guys."
"Do it, Mahendra." One of the Bandits said.
"Roger!"
Mahendra pulls out a Bazooka and shoots at the military behind the hooded man and blows them up.
The Hooded man gets close to the bandits and parks his bike.
"You took longer than you usually do. You're late, Keith."

"I told you guys to not get involved with what I'm doing."
[Keith Ammizabad _ Aged: 16. Bandit. Bounty: 15,000 Gols. No Stars]
"Is that how you say your thanks you spoiled brat? We're just offering assistance, since both our goals align." Rakesh said.
They see more military trucks headed their way.
"Those idiots never learn. Get ready boys." Rakesh said.
The Bandits all pull out their snipers and riffles.
"Take this mini truck."
Keith throws Rakesh the mini truck.
"What's this?" Rakesh asked.
"Press the button on it, it will return to its original size. It contains a Water tank in it. Take it with you and head out without me." Keith said.
"And...What are you going to do?" Rakesh asked.
"Just fucking go. I'll handle everything here." Keith said.
"...Jeez, Alright you spoiled brat. You better come you damn brat." Rakesh said.
"Tch. Just fuck off."
"Okay guys, We'll leave the soldiers to our brat here. Let's go."
The Bandits climb their bikes and trucks and ride/drive away leaving Keith on his own. The soldiers finally catch up.
"That's the Bandit that has been disrupting the peace of our beautiful nation Astaven. Keith Ammizabad with the bounty of 15,000 Gold." One of the soldiers said.
"I say you all are lucky your heads don't worth jack shit." Keith said while drawing out his dagger.
"Just disappear."
Keith cloaks his dagger in black lightning and takes a step forward towards the soldiers. Meanwhile, in Cliffwolf Village, The Bandits have returned with food and water.
The Villagers begin to Murmur,
"It's our monthly provisions."
"The Ghost Bandits really are amazing."
"Come get your food and drinks. There's plenty for everyone so don't rush." Rakesh said.
The Villagers begin to cheer for the Bandits. As they are eating their food, Keith returns to the village with a bag full of heads.
"Wow, You're back so fast. Was the Military that weak?"
"..."
"Keith..." Suraj called to Keith.
"Village Chief, Where is my mother?" Keith asked.
"She is lying in my house right now. Her condition keeps worsening." Suraj said.
"Take me to her."
They enter Suraj's home and they see Parul lying on the bed in a very ill health.
"Mother, I'm home."
Keith walks towards Parul and sits beside her bed.
"I've brought your medicine."
"Keith...You became a wanted criminal because of us... I'm really sorry." Parul said with an ill voice.
"It's okay, I'm just doing everything I can to help you all." Keith said while holding onto his mother's cold hands.
"I'm sorry Keith...Even after your efforts...I don't think I'm going to make it."
"Huh?"
"Before I die, I wanted to tell you something. I really loved your father...I thought we had something special...I was really hurt when he said all those mean stuff. I really do love you, Keith... you're my only son... I'm glad I gave birth to you. **Sob** So please don't grow up to be like your father... Don't break women's hearts like him and don't be naive like me. Promise me, Keith."
"..."
"Thank you Keith for being born...and being there for me."
At that very moment, My mother passed away right before my eyes. When I thought I could finally restart and live a life of peace. The World just had to take from me What's precious.
Keith remembers his conversation with Ichinose in his past life.
"And Uta, If you happened to possess the power of a politician, Yakuza, or King, What would you do with it?"
Flashback Over, Keith watches his mother's corpse while gripping her hand tightly.
"Yeah, I finally understand that question and know what to do..."
Two years later, A Small Battleship approaches an unknown nation.
"I'll kill all those bastards sitting at the top and make them pay.
