Unusual World 23 Warm Welcome Part 2

Desmond looked at his landlord and grinned "sure a bribe why not let's call it that, can you open the door for me now".

The landlord s.n.a.t.c.hed the crystal away as fast as he could probably in fear I would go back on what I just said: "I always knew you were my best tenant always so considerate of me if your planning on doing something and telling me to look the other way say no more".

Right after getting my money he starts singing a different tune, its nice to know people can be bribed no matter what world you're on. Oleg when back into his home picked up his keys and opened my door before going back to his apartment.

Oleg wait "I need a new set of keys how soon can you get them for me". He turns around after hearing me "I'll need a few days the guy I usually have is closed for now just don't lock your door when you go out till then". He then shut the door and went back to playing his music loudly I just know I'm gonna hate that song.

Stepping into my apartment it was fairly quaint not big but not small. When I entered it was into the living room there was a window looking out to the street I was just walking on, a table in the middle what looked to be a newspaper a sofa on the left and a small CRT TV. I constantly feel like I've been sent back in time instead of another world.

The bedroom was on my right it had a bed, a nightstand with a few memorabilia, a closet full of clothes, the bathroom was inside my bedroom it was small only a shower toilet and sink. My kitchen was on the left side of the living room it was plain-looking a few canned goods in the cabinets and a mini fridge you typically see at a hotel.

The place was quaint but it was better then the street now I could finally practice magic. I place all the stuff I was carrying on the table in front of me. Despite me being a bit tired I sit on the couch Pick up the first book In the pile t.i.tled Path Of A Magus. I was going to start reading it when someone came knocking on my door.

"Come on can't the universe just give me five minutes of piece to study magic". I lazily get up to answer the door, open it only to find a glowing fist right in my face "What?" I got punched hard.

The force from his fist was somehow able to send me flying, I landed on the table in the middle of the room. The table was st.u.r.dy enough not to break but my nose wasn't it was bent awkwardly to the right. I held my nose in pain as blood flowed out of it the punch also managed to disorientate me making the room spin resulting in me falling off the table to my left on the ground next to the TV.

"Whoo, That's what I'm talking about man it felt good. Hay Ross, you want to hit him too". Clement turned his head with a large grin on his face waiting for Ross's reply.

"Of course this old s.h.i.+t almost got us killed both its only fair we return the favor" Ross walks in the room with Clement following closely behind making their way next to Desmond still in pain on the floor.

Ross makes his way next to Desmond circling around him blocking his view of the TV while Clement stood by Desmond's feet. "Remember us you old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you gave us the slip a little over 2 weeks ago I honestly thought all that stuff you said to our boss about taking on his debt and making everything right again was all a bunch of bull.

I was beginning to think maybe it was all a ruse to buy more time so you could break you, little friend, out or maybe you somehow managed to break the contract you signed and weren't going to come back to pay what you now owe. Giving your self enough time to escape so you wouldn't be killed for his mess. It scared the b.l.o.o.d.y daylights out of me ... Hay you listening to me".

Desmond stops holding his b.l.o.o.d.y nose as he looked at the man named Ross standing above him "who are you?".

Ross looked at me "who am I?". His foot then begins to glow as he kicks me so hard he almost dislocated my jaw. I spit out blood and if I had teeth they would have been kicked out.

"Have you got dementia old man, I work for Vincent Marino his holiness himself and the man you owe money to. I, on the other hand, am Ross Wagner your f.u.c.king baby sitter for the next 2 days until the deadline is up". He gave me another kick right in the gut making me curl up in a ball and cough up some blood.

Feeling like I got the gist of what was happening and seeing as I was going to get beat up anyway I just had to ask him. "It looks like your right I really do have dementia mind refres.h.i.+ng my memory by telling me how much I owe". I look him right in the eye and give him the best smile I could muster showing him my b.l.o.o.d.y gums as some blood leaks out of my mouth.

That only managed to p.i.s.s him off even more as he kicks me repeatedly harder every time "you owe 2,500 magic crystals you dumb s.h.i.+t". He didn't stop kicking me after he told me and at some point, his friend joined in as well both their feet were glowing as they repeatedly kicked an already beaten and b.l.o.o.d.y old man.

I could get to my gun or my knife even if I started a fistfight with them I know I would lose that glow on their body meant they were using magic. It was some kind that obviously enhanced their physical strength. That's why I didn't put much thought Into resisting the duo.

"Jeeze I'm not even that old man has been dead for a long time already yet I'm suffering for his problems. Its that boss of theirs that's the problem I don't know if he lent the money to that guy or if he's a drug dealer who lost his product but whatever he's doing he's doing it wrong.

Not to mention the genius that got into debt to such an obviously bad group of people not to mention that stupid old man who took on that other guys debt". I feel like this is a 3-way race to win who's the biggest idiot award out of the 3 the one that's winning I have no clue.

They keep beating me for a little while longer when my landlord Oleg comes walking in the open door. He sees what is happening and tries to stop them "hay, what do you think you're doing to my favorite tenant get off of him before I ...".

Both of the guys stopped beating me for a little while when Oleg showed, they then turned around took out there revolvers and pointed them at Oleg he froze on the spot. "you know what I was paid to look the other way anyways". He then promptly tries to leave the room.

I call to him in pain "Oleg help me please" Oleg keeps walking away not turning around while answering me "nope I wasn't paid to deal with this I was paid to look the other way" he then entered his home and closes the door, I could hear the door locking while I'm lying on the floor. I had no idea as to what I was hoping for anyways when I called him.

"Alright, that's enough while I hate you I don't want to kill you after you finally got back but I also don't want you to go running off again so Clement break his leg.

I got shocked when he said that I may be able to repair the broken leg but I will still feel all the pain. "what wait no please listen". They didn't listen Clement picked up my right leg while Ross held me down I try kicking them away to no avail. Clement placed my leg on the table his right leg glowed as he brought it down like a hammer.

I can hear my bones clearly snap me scream only mad the 2 of them laugh. My leg was bent in an upward angle I could even feel bone fragments dig into me. The pain brought me to tears while the ones that did it to me were crying tears of joy.

"stop crying now I'm not a bad guy look hears a low grade healing potion" he opened the potion I thought he was going to give it to me but instead he pours it all into his mouth swishes it around like mouthwash and spits it back into the bottle. "Here you go that will fix you up nice you will still have a limp but its better than you are now". He said as he laughed "let's go Clement". Finished with me they both move towards the door to leave.

"Remember now 2 days well come pick you up and we will be watching you" he waved me by like an old friend as he closed the door and left.

"f.u.c.king h.e.l.l" I try to use my soul threads to fix my leg but there was a problem it wouldn't work.
