【Beginning】
Just as Shalnark expected, the pissed tycoon returned together with a burly bodyguard, scaring all customers away.
- Sophie: What? Icy, wh-what should we do now?
- Icy: I have the same question too!
【End】
- Tycoon: Humph! Smash their store! And also that man. Kick his ass!
Tycoon commanded while scowling at Shalnark. As soon as the bodyguard received the order, he sprinted towards Shalnark, swinging his punch.
- Shalnark: Too slow.
Shalnark effortlessly dodged the punch and gave a sweep kick in return, tripping the bodyguard. When Shalnark was about to end his life, his action was frozen all of a sudden.
- Shalnark: “Phew, luckily I stopped in time. If I kill someone in the shop, no one will come here ever again.”
Shalnark recalled the fatal blow. Instead, he took out his phone and stuck the antennae into the bodyguard, taking control of his mind.
- Tycoon: Hey! What’s your deal!? I’ve spent a fortune to hire you. Kick that man’s— —Whoa! W-Why are you lifting me up!?
- Shalnark: How annoying. Throw him into the sea.
Controlling the bodyguard with Nen power, Shalnark made him toss the tycoon into the sea. While the tycoon was struggling in the water, Shalnark warned him coldly.
- Shalnark: If you ever plot anything against that eatery again, you won’t get to see the next sunrise.
- Tycoon: O-Okay. I-I get it!
Shalnark unplugged the antennae to disarm the control. Once the bodyguard regained consciousness, he fled the scene together with the tycoon. Next day in the morning, Sophie and Icy greeted Shalnark excitedly.
- Sophie: That rich man closed down his business. Now we can run our eatery without threats!
- Icy: All thanks to you.
- Shalnark: You’re welcome.
At this moment, a blue sparkle flashed, revealing Madhead.
- Madhead: Thanks for the effort! I’ll teleport you back to your world now!
- Shalnark: Wait. I still wanna take...
Madhead sent Shalnark back through a portal before he could finish the sentence.
- Shalnark: a walk around this town...Huh? What did I just say?
