I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

Chapter 33 Dealt



The man who just spoke was the husband that sold off his wife and daughter to the Blacktooth Gang. He himself was clearly a member of the gang because he was wearing the same outfit as the other members that Leo had seen.

Leo was incredibly furious at the man's response. The minute he heard him say that, Leo aimed his hand at him.

He was in the shadows so they hadn't even seen him yet. He cast a magic bullet at the man beside the husband. The bullet flew into the man's forehead and pierced his brain. The man died instantly before he even realized that something was wrong.

The man slowly slumped to the ground. The husband saw this and knew something was weird. He didn't notice the blood on the man's forehead yet.

"Is something wrong? Are you okay?" He asked. He leaned closer to take a better look. When he did, he saw the hole in his forehead.

Before he could even react, another bullet hit him in his hips.

"AHH!" He shouted. "Who are you?!!"

He turned around and started looking for the person who did this to him. His legs gave out and he dropped to the floor. Another bullet hit his right shoulder. He screamed in response.

This commotion made the noise inside the shack go down completely. The door opened, and a man walked out.

This man was shirtless and had a huge scar on his chest. He had a scruffy beard and looked incredibly annoyed.

"What's the problem? Did you idiots get into a fight?" He asked. He saw that both of them were down on the ground, but he didn't notice the blood yet.

"Sir! Get down!" The husband said.

Before the man could even react, another bullet hit the right leg of the man who just came out.

Immediately, the man immediately summoned his aura. A translucent shield appeared around him. He started looking around to see where the bullet came from. He was wincing from the pain, but he didn't make a lot of noise, unlike the husband.

At this point, Leo walked out into the open. He was wearing a cloak anyway, and the people already knew he was there. He decided to just face them.

"Who are you?" The man asked. He was very calm.

Leo looked at him. "I am a person who is not fond of the Blacktooth Gang." He said.

"You're a mage. What business does a mage have in the slums?" The man asked. When he said that, the husband on the ground realized why he couldn't understand what hit him.

"What business do you have here?" Leo asked the man back.I think you should take a look at

The man sighed. "This person lost a bet. He couldn't repay it. His family is doing him a favor by repaying the debt for him. If you want, you could have asked to join. But now, I don't think I'll let you." He said.

He was limping lightly because of his injured right leg. He was balancing his weight on his left leg and leaning on the door of the shack.

Leo knew that the shouts would bring people to the area and that he would have to finish whatever he was doing quickly. He pointed his hand at the person and shot another magic bullet.

The bullet hit the covering around the man and left a small dent, but didn't pierce through.

"I am surprised, but you should leave now. You are not getting through the Aura Shield. Out of the entire Blacktooth Gang, only 3 people have ever cracked it. If you leave now, you can keep your life." The man warned.

Leo looked at him. "We both know you are stalling." He followed his response with a barrage of magic bullets at the person. The bullets all hit the shield, and slowly formed cracks on it. Eventually, the shield shattered.

The person tried running away into the shack, but his leg gave out. If he was in perfect condition, then he would have posed a real threat to Leo, but with his leg being hit by the bullet, he was a standing target for Leo. All the bullets that Leo shot hit him in the back and sprayed blood over the door.

Leo walked toward the door. He saw the husband was trying to crawl away and shot another magic bullet at him. The person didn't die immediately, but he stopped moving. At this point, he was panting because he had used so much magic at once.

He searched the clothes of the first person he met and found a pouch. It was filled with coins and a few notes, as well as a badge. He took the pouch of the person who came out of the shack as well. It was a lot heavier than the first one.

He entered the shack. Inside, he saw a young 17-year-old girl and an older woman both in a corner. They were partially clothed and the remnants of their clothing were seen around the entire shack. He could see the tears streaming down their faces.

"Who are you?" The older woman asked. Her voice was shaky.

"That is not what matters," Leo said. He tossed the first pouch that he took. It had around 7-8000 Star coins. "Get out of the city. Use the money and make a better life for yourself. Don't stay around here."

He turned around immediately. "There will be people coming here in a short while so you should hurry up. Get dressed and start running." He said while leaving the shack.

When he got out, he cast a final bullet on the husband, killing him properly. He looked at the bodies with disgust. He shook his head and left the area.
