When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First Chapter 45: Start

Chapter 45: Start

When he got back, Leo immediately went to his room. He felt so powerless when he saw the Magistrate look through him and Daphne in an instant. He didn't like that he would have to hide his power every time until he got stronger.

He was also lucky that he used a different Magic System. Otherwise, he would have had to explain to the Magistrate how he knew magic. It wasn't illegal for him to tell that he found a tome. Commoners were allowed to learn magic. If they got their hands on the magic.

However, the n.o.bles control most of the sources of magic that very few commoners can actually learn magic. If Leo's tome was made public, on the other hand, he would be dissected and researched. He would be made an eternal slave for the knowledge in the tome. That was how valuable it was.

The first step in his plan to get stronger to avoid all this was starting to get closer. He had practiced all of the spells that he was able to learn to Advanced proficiency. He was as ready as he could to finally confront the Blacktooth Gang. He only had to guarantee three things.

The first thing would be to properly establish an alias. He would have to leave a few people alive to spread the news of who it was that attacked the Blacktooth Gang. He would call himself Orion, a mage from Eldridge. Since it was a major city, it would have so many more n.o.bles that they wouldn't be able to actually identify him.

The second thing would be to go when his Shadow Step was easiest to use. That was the night. He would be able to hide in the shadows and attack the members more easily. He would also not have to explain where he was to Daphne.

The last and most important consideration would be how he was going to store his loot. He was going to bring a bag to carry all the money and valuables he was going to steal. He had already purchased a large bag for this purpose. He didn't want to spend time throwing them into his bag.

After all of these were filled, he moved to the final step. Rest. He practiced each spell once before giving his body and mind some rest. He was going to rest for the next two days and not practice any spells. He would only meditate and gather magic, but even that would be minimal and rest would be prioritized.

It was the night of the 28th of December. He was planning on attacking on 30th December. He was attacking on the 30th because it was close enough to the New Year that the gang members would be completely unprepared. They would be too occupied with celebrating that they would forget about security. He didn't want to attack on the night of the 31st since he had to celebrate that night with Daphne.

He was thinking too much that his head started to hurt. He was over-planning the simple event, but it was because he was being extra careful. He decided to go to sleep and think about it when the time came.

The 29th disappeared very quickly. He just trained the entire day and slept early that night. It was a very simple day because Daphne didn't disturb him either. She was leaving him alone since they had gone out the previous day.

On the 30th, he got ready for the night. He went out to the market to buy a mask for himself. A few stalls were selling them since masks were part of the festive spirit. He bought a mask covering his entire face to avoid showing facial features. He also bought another pair of normal masks for him and Daphne for the actual New Year. After doing that, he returned to the house. free webno vel

Once he got back, he just trained for a little bit before idling around. He was just waiting for the sun to set. Daphne was also training since he was holed up in his room. After waiting for a long time, the sun finally set. He immediately stopped idling.

He waited for Daphne to come out for dinner. Once she finished eating and went back to her room, he immediately got ready. He grabbed everything he needed and set out.

It took him only a few minutes to come to the slums. Once he reached the slums, he slowed his pace. He started to tread slowly. The part of the slums where he had encountered the members of the Blacktooth Gang last time was very close to their actual base. He first decided to that place first.

When he got there, he saw that the damage he had created was still there. The door to the shack was still damaged and he could see bullet holes here and there. He smiled. This time the damage wouldn't be as small.

He turned to the direction of the base. He walked toward it in the shadows. As he got closer, he could see the old base of the Thorn Roses. It was a proper mansion that seemed out of place in the slums. It belonged in the Commoner District in its richest part.

At this point, Leo knew where in the house the members could be. He was going to use guerrilla tactics to eliminate as many members as he could as fast as he could. The mansion had two sectors.

The front of the house that faced the slums was where the bulk of the members were. They were partying in the main hall based on the sounds. There were loud sounds from inside the mansion that helped him figure out what was happening inside.

The back of the house was where the leader lived. He would be in the back away from danger, but he was the most dangerous element in Leo's plan. First, he approached the front gate which was only a few meters away from the door.

There were two guards there, guarding the gate. They still hadn't seen him approaching them yet and were just talking to each other. Both of them were newer recruits, which was why they were stationed in the front instead of enjoying the party inside.

Leo crept in toward them. As he got closer, he got put up his hood and mask. The only thing left symbolizing him was his short height. He pointed his hand and unleashed two magic bullets.

The two guards were not even 1st Circle Aura Knights. They didn't even know what happened before they died. They slowly limped onto the ground without making too much noise. No one inside would know that they were down two men.

Leo didn't bother trying to unlock the gate and just used Shadow Step to travel to the other side of the gate. He stopped in front of his first two victims and scanned their bodies. He quickly found and grabbed their pouches and threw them into the bag on his back.

After doing that he stretched a little before looking at the mansion in front of him. He cracked his neck before going in. He was starting his attack.
