NOVEL NEXT Chapter 162
Chapter 162: The Monster Organization Isn’t That Bad?
“Two friends I recently met have disappeared…”
At this moment, the middle-aged man sighed and said, “After I reported it to the Knights, they searched thoroughly but found no trace.”
“Could it be the Monster Organization?”
With a focused gaze, Fēi Rèn immediately pointed the finger at the Monster Organization! However, the middle-aged man shook his head and said, “It’s hard to say… The Monster Organization doesn’t create disappearance cases. If this was their doing, then those two should not be missing, but rather dead somewhere…”
“Maybe they’re just acting differently, who knows what evil plans they’re hatching?”
Fēi Rèn coldly stated. She didn’t care much about the details. After all, in this city, the only ones capable and motivated to make someone disappear without a trace were basically the Monster Organization!
Attacking my benefactor’s friends… This adds another debt to settle with you!
“You seem to really dislike the Monster Organization, Líng Nài?”
Looking at Fēi Rèn’s reaction, the middle-aged man scratched his head and said, “But honestly… I don’t think they are as bad as people say.”
“Huh?”
Hearing this, Fēi Rèn widened her eyes! Then instinctively she loudly said, “Master! They are killing people indiscriminately in the city! How can they not be that bad?”
“But the Monster Organization kills bad people!”
The middle-aged man responded emotionally, “Do you know? Before I opened this dojo, I worked in a factory. But the boss tampered with the contract, so I worked there for a long time without getting paid! Those were the darkest days of my life!”
Fēi Rèn’s expression darkened. She knew a bit about the middle-aged man’s past, and she could guess what he was going to say next…
“Last week, I saw news of his death!”
He said with some emotion, “Although there wasn’t detailed coverage on TV, I heard later that his heart was dug out! I wish I could see if his heart was truly black—”
“Master, I understand your feelings. But the Monster Organization is still an alien race. Even if they kill bad people, it doesn’t justify their wanton killing of humans!”
Fēi Rèn said seriously, “Don’t let their current behavior fool you. Who can guarantee these monsters won’t extend their claws to innocent people someday… They even attacked schools!”
“Ahh, Líng Nài, you’re too serious…”
The middle-aged man, who was still reveling in the thought of the evil boss being killed, suddenly felt deflated like a cold bucket of water. He could only give a helpless smile.
“Moreover, these guys execute extreme punishment without giving any chance for repentance or redemption!”
At this point, Fēi Rèn lowered her head and whispered softly, “Not everyone who does wrong deserves no chance to redeem themselves.”
For example, her… On that day, she forgave the one who committed the ultimate sin. Even someone as wicked as her could be forgiven. So why can’t anyone among those killed by the Monster Organization be given a chance to live and seek redemption?
“Líng Nài, you’re being too soft-hearted again!”
Clearly, the middle-aged man completely disagreed with her. He laughed it off, “I’ve been away from that factory for years. Has that dog of a boss changed? No, he hasn’t. So I can only say good riddance to such people!”
Fēi Rèn remained silent, but deep down she certainly did not agree with the Monster Organization’s actions. From a Magical Girl’s perspective, a group of aliens killing people in human cities shouldn’t be overlooked just because they currently kill bad people. There’s no guarantee they won’t harm innocent people in the future!
From her own perspective: Having received redemption herself, Fēi Rèn sincerely wished more people could be forgiven. On that day, when she was six, she had done something terrible to a Magical Girl to survive. She was willing to forgive herself with a smile…
“Alright, Líng Nài, no need to be so serious. I was just talking casually!”
Seeing Fēi Rèn remain silent, the middle-aged man smiled and said, “Since you’re here, clear your mind, put aside distractions, and train properly!”
“Yes, Master!”
Hearing this, Fēi Rèn remembered she came here to relax, not to add more worries. She immediately took out a heavy wooden sword from her long cloth bag and started swinging it around in the dojo!
If a list were made ranking the pre-transformation combat abilities of Magical Girls, Fēi Rèn would definitely be near the top! In her human form, she possessed extraordinary hand-to-hand combat skills and swordsmanship. Only the人造人Judgment could rival her before transformation.
Ordinary part-time girl Mèng Yuè and shut-in girl Líng Lí were far behind. However, since they were already beyond human, they could now match Fēi Rèn even without transforming.
Fēi Rèn had reached her current level thanks largely to the middle-aged man, who was both her benefactor and master. Though short, she swung the sword with great force. A single strike could break an ordinary person’s arm, making her an undeniable powerhouse!
Thus, without realizing it, Fēi Rèn stayed in the dojo until evening. This intense training indeed relieved a lot of pressure! However, it also caused the other dojo students to leave early, citing various excuses…
“Master, I’m leaving!”
At seven o’clock in the evening, Fēi Rèn waved goodbye to the middle-aged man with her long cloth bag on her back. Although she hadn’t regained her former energetic state, her steps were noticeably lighter after a day of sword practice, clearly indicating she had released a lot of stress…
“Mèng Yuè’s words are right. This does make me feel lighter.”
Walking quickly on the road, Fēi Rèn murmured softly, “But it’s undeniable that this is just a temporary escape from reality. My sister and the Monster Leader are always present—”
Just as Fēi Rèn was speaking to herself, something unexpected happened right in front of her!
“Help! Help me!”
伴随着一声凄厉的呼救声，Fēi Rèn惊讶地看到不远处一个看起来像黑洞的漩涡正在将一个约莫三十岁的大胖子吸进去！而那个人则双手紧紧抱住一根电线杆，虽然没有立刻被吸进去，但他的双脚已经被强大的吸力腾空，看来也撑不了多久了。
