Chapter 167 - Jail Visit

Alph trembled at the thought that the Ancient was higher than the Devil Himself in the AWR, Aberrant Worldwide Ranking. It's because his family had been meeting the Ancient annually for ritual - something like a celebration out of gratitude. All this time, they were meeting something more dangerous than the Devil Himself.

Even if he doesn't know their true strength, this comparison is enough to make him feel a shiver.

While thinking, Teren passed by him.

"I'll be getting out of here first."

Teren was lucky to find that the Alpha was already submissive to him. However, of course, there's no loyalty. He's aware that once this Alpha had the chance to bite back, he will. He really needs to find a way to subdue men. As for women, he had already thought something that could subdue them..

He will be visiting the fields today. Teren wants to try it.

After exiting the room, the Beta Group looked at him with caution. They were not as dumb as Mesi or the other people who believed Alph's words.

Therefore, there was no obstacle when Teren walked to the rooftop. The stairs were closed but that wasn't really a problem for him. Once there, he pointed two of his fingers to the sky like a gun and-

Spirit of Flame

A red dot was released straight from his fingers and shot towards the sky where it exploded. It was akin to a flare. 

Almost everyone had noticed it, stopping their chatter.

"Hm... in just one day. Not bad."

Teren praised himself. It was like a reward. Of course, he didn't let himself be overconfident. What happened today was just a walk in the park. Steadily, or in this case, abruptly, the difficulty will arise since he will be meeting the Ancient soon.

If a fight ever broke out, Teren was confident of escaping.

He came down and the Pack looked at him in fear. Teren was the only one who came to the rooftop and shot that flare. Looking at his body, where did he hide a flare gun? There's none.

Alph came out of his room at the same time, all composed. 

"What's happening?"

"Um, leader... there was a flare."

"Ah..."

He didn't need to hear more.

Teren came down and he was not noticed. The only one who spotted him was Derek while tending Matthew's wounds.

"What happened there?"

Teren was asked as he came back to them.

"Nothing, he just asked some questions."

"Hmm..." Matthew frowned, "That was too short if he wants to have sex with you."

"Woah, Matthew, you deviant!"

Mesi said with a shocked face. 

"You never know, what if that guy's a pedophile?"

"Well, at least you're safe, right, Teren?" Mesi patted Teren's back.

"... yeah."

Meanwhile, at the gate of the prison, a group of men has arrived. Seeing this group of men, the guards were stupefied and one had run up to get the prison warden.

The group of men had entered the front building's first floor. It was like a reception hall.

"We're here to ask you to bail Teren Hark out. I'm a detective and here is the approval from the police and the city hall."

Old Derman places the documentation in front of the person in charge of the desk.

Truthfully, there was no approval. How can they prepare all that in one day? This is just the first day on which Teren was admitted there. That was just formality. The presence of the people behind Old Derman was enough to put pressure on anyone.

"Teren Hark?"

The warden had come in. Of course, it was Jalner.

"Yes, Warden."

At first, Warden Jalner stood unwavering. He was called since someone had told him that there were important people outside. When he asked who, the guard couldn't answer. 

'A detective?'

He had heard of Detective Derman. But the old man was famous because of his obsession with destroying the gang in the city, not because of any particular achievement. So he wasn't important in Warden Jalner's eyes.

Those eyes then shifted to the two middle-aged men. These two, Warden Jalner recognized one of them.

'Hardfist Jo! Is this the important person? So that's why he couldn't tell me his name, he's a gangster!'

Warden Jalner knew this is going to be hard. His goal was to keep his position high here and to do that, he had to be unwavering even in front of power abuse.

But just as his eyes rolled and met a man with a cane and suit-

"Mayor!"

His demeanor changed as he slightly bowed.

"Are you also here to get Teren Hark?"

"Yes, I personally visited since an innocent minor like him was charged and got into this prison."

The mayor said as if it was for publicity to show his proactiveness in taking out injustices.

"Is that so? Then I'll get him right away!"

"No, no, we'll enter ourselves. Furthermore, isn't it lunchtime? I want to see the state of the prison as well if it's well kept and if the prisoners were behaving well."

Hearing this, Warden Jalner sweated. This prison was already bought by one of the prisoners, the Alpha. If this was to be revealed, Warden Jalner who accepted big money to let a prisoner be in charge of the Heren City Prison will have no future.

But it was seriously big money! Once he retires, he can go on luxury trips all over the world for his whole family until he dies!

"Ahaha, but prisoners will always be unruly Mayor. You may be in danger."

"No, no, I insist. I don't think they will do something like that."

The mayor naively said but with Jo beside him, he could confidently say so.

Seeing the persistence in the mayor's eyes, Warden Jalner could only hope that nothing goes wrong. It's just a minute trip inside and out to get one kid, right?

Therefore, the group had entered while the prisoners were in the middle of their meal as they wander what's up with the flare.
