"Oh, Oh stop it, please, Melissa just reacted that way, because I cannot move my limbs. Forgive her rudeness and listen to me." The man sitting in the chair lost control over his limbs due to an accident. He describes the actions of Melissa as the protection of her master.

"Well, my kid here did what he is supposed to, protecting his family." Neith is not going back or showing signs of kindness, no matter what the man is saying.

"Okay! Nine hundred thousand for the red stone and one million for the greens. I cannot go up than this, I would go bankrupt if I raise the stakes any further." The man sitting in the chair turns his head towards Melissa and nods his head.

Melissa takes out a thin rectangular box from under the table and places it in front of them. The box projected a visual screen in front of them and a visual keyboard.

"Please enter your code in that and I will transfer the money from me to you." He instructs Neith.

The code here is a seven-digit number that everyone on the mainland possess, or rather, given to them by the government. It acts to activate your mobile, vehicle locks, passwords and banks.

"The price is but, I would rather take metal money than digital. You see, I need to pay someone back. That is why we are selling the stones too. Otherwise, why would we even sell the new stones?" Neith insists that he pay them in metal.

Money in metal is the currency in the form of metal coins. Paper money is banned long before. Due to the reduction of the earth to only one percent of land and even in the one percent, the forests are filled with mutilated and evolved beasts. It is hard to make paper out of trees. Which is why the metal coins are introduced in the place of paper.

"O-kay, as per your wish." With a heavy sigh, he turns towards Melissa again and gestures her to bring something from the inside.

Neith, particularly asked for money, because she knows that the dark alley is full of frauds, they can scam her account anytime. Which is why she denied for digital money and asked for cash in particular.

"A total of four million nine hundred thousand, all in the form of metal coins." He yells at Melissa who has gone into the room.

She brings back a huge briefcase, filled with coins, that are arranged in a row.

Melissa hands over the case to Neith and Neith gives it to Faust. She then passes the stones to the man sitting and Melissa takes them over and puts it in front of the man.

Meanwhile, Faust touches the case all around while observing the material of the case, the smell and the texture of the case. Melissa and the man sitting finds it very odd, but does not say anything.

"Will see you later again." Neith takes her leave and both her and Faust walks out of the shop.

They keep walking back the same way they came from. This time there is no Bang in front of the entrance. Both of them walks out of the old gray curtain. The old man is still sitting there as a guard. "Pleasure doing business with you. Have a good day!" He greets them both as they start to climb the stairs of the alley.


"Oh shoot!" Faust says in a loud voice, Neith turns back instantly and holds the arms of Faust tightly.

"What happened?" Neith asks him while checking her surroundings.

"I wanted to buy some tools for myself, ish, let's come back some other day." 

"Tools? Since when did you become familiar with the tools Faust?" Neith asks him, he does not even have spiritual power to use any tools.

"Oh, no-no. I'm learning a new skill from the senior of my school. And his skills need to have a thin magic - thread and some normal equipment that I wanted to use. But it's ok-" Faust explains her about the tools and before they could start going. Two guys covered in hoods and masks that cover half of their face, snatches away the case that Faust is holding and starts running.

Faust and Neith just climbed the stairs and they get robbed while the old man is still seeing them. Neith first looks towards the old man, he does not move an inch or speak anything. "Faust!" She yells.

Faust stretches his hand in front of him. The guy running with his is running while hugging the case in his chest. They are already twenty feet away from them both and are running very quickly.

*Bong* 

With the sound of a bong, as if someone has played a heavy bass, the case is back into Faust's hands, he holds the handle of the case tightly this time.

"Where did these guys come from now?" Faust says and the two guys running are confused. They turn back to see that the case is back at Faust again.

The two men turn back facing Faust and Neith, they look determined to get the case back. As Neith and Faust wait for the next move to be made. A bunch of people show up, coming from inside of the shops and on the roofs of shops. There are a total of fifteen people, all covered in gray hoods and a mask on their face, covering their nose and mouth.

A faint smirk is seen on the face of the old man sitting in front of the curtain. "Fausto."

"Uun" Neith and Faust responds to each other's call as if they understood what they need to do. The fifteen men start walking towards the two.

Two portals open on either side of Faust. "He is not a normal person, let's finish this fast." The man in the middle of the fifteen speaks and all of them start running towards the two. They are running in the alley, jumping on top of the roofs of shops from one shop to another.

Neith places one of her legs behind and one in front and places herself in the running pose. She pushes her hind leg into the ground as she is getting ready to take off.

Faust, on the other hand, folds his left hand in a way that his index and middle fingers are open while the rest are closed. He points the fingers down towards the ground and with a flick, he moves his wrist from bottom to upwards as he is directing something towards Neith.

 The portals that are on either side of Faust suddenly emits two swords. One of them is Faust's purple colour sword that is given to him by Neith. The other one is crimson-coloured with golden handle.

Neith dashes off towards the bunch at the same moment, her arms are crossed under one another and her hands are reaching for the swords that are on either side of her. She holds the sword on her left with her right hand. And the sword on her right with her left hand.

Meanwhile, two of them have come very close to her. They are holding a large two-man cross saw. A long blade with two handles on each side. Both of them are holding it on each side and planning to ram Neith with the blade to behead her in one swing.

As they come close, Neith, disappeared and appeared behind them. She is still in her same posing and still drawing her swords from their scabbards. But disappeared in front and appeared behind the two men. As if she has teleported.
