Madness: SKIP

[12 years later]

Nothing much happened in this time, Billy traveled in different villages and towns, gaining informations and sometimes being trained in martial arts, the rest of the time would be spent in training in his own constitution and playing with his abilities.

Apparently the halo would give him these capabilities:

Telekinesis, an ability used to move things with the power of the mind, but it requires a slight concentration and mind power. However, he developed a sub-technique, which would create a shield to deflect attacks.

Black Nexus Bolt, this would make him create bolts of dark energy that are capable of erasing anyone it touches and reduce to ashes everything else, however it is too slow to be used in an actual combat, so it's better using it against slow or big targets.

Summoning skeletons or agent-like people from black fissures, the number of them is almost infinite, not only he can do that, but he can also strengthen them, however it would tire him out. Surprisingly, he can summon giant variants that are as tall as an entire floor, however their strength is really immense.

Those fissures that he can create also act as portals, like the ones from "Portal", he could even summon any weapon he wanted from them, at the condition that it is 100% non-living things.

He can switch his consciousness with other skeletons or units made from him, giving him immortality, and the halo would give him superhuman strength and agility, he was already strong enough to beat an human barehanded when he was 10 years old.

During this time, he also found out more things, for example, he was forced to wear sunglasses because the halo gave him red eyes with black sclera. And if anyone else touched the halo, they would immediately be zapped with non-lethal nexus bolt.

And right now…

...He was in the empire.

...No, not as a guard. Not even as a captain or general or God-knows-what.

He opened a casinò in the empire, he knew that his strength was far from enough to beat single-handedly the empire, especially with people like Esdeath or Budo guarding that fat fuck called Honest, that is everything but honest.

His knowledge of Akame Ga Kill was only from the anime, and even that was really too little, around the first episodes, because he didn't really had time and will to read the manga, and it was a bit boring… And seeing that there were still some news about the nobles that lived nearby, the ones that would go around and torture any people they wanted… How were they called… Well, their daughter was called Aria…

Meh, they are not important for his casino, so, where he was… Oh right, he created this casino to gain trust from the empire and slowly leeching away their money, he would kill them economically.

Not only that, but he was actually one of the people that gave the revolutionary army the money to pay the soldiers and upgrade their facilities.

However, the real target was still not found… A female that should be around 22 years with black hair…

He asked the revolutionary army to search for the culprit, but they say that didn't found anything about it.

Let's stop talking about bad things, let's talk about good things…

The casino was actually pretty good, he found out that there were already games like these he had, except for the slot machine, but he decided to not put that because it costed too much, and people could easily steal from it.

The majority played poker, blackjack, or roulette, sometimes he himself would play, but he didn't asked anything from his opponents, why asking them things when the fee he placed was already enough?

Everyone needed to pay the 10% of all the chips they wanted to use, no exceptions. Now, you may ask, how did Billy open a casino without any difficulty?

Connections, he became friends of known people, like Ogre or the son of the Prime Minister, Syura.

Strangely for the citizens, no one dared to act brazenly in the casino due to its ironclad rules.

1. If you want to rape, kill, steal from people, anything else, then do it outside.

2. Don't break anything.

3. Don't steal.

4. Anyone that breaks the rules above, will be severely punished from a broken limb to death.

How did people stay silent and respect these rules? It was all thanks to Big G in the casino overlooking anyone, honestly, almost anyone would be scared shitless of a man that exceeded 5 meters of height.

However, for people like Syura and Ogre, it was just enough overlooking their activities out from the casino, even if it was in front of the entrance, Billy would just come out and tell either of them to do their things at the nearby alley.

Ogre once tried to break the rule and molest someone inside the casino, guess who has a broken arm?

Syura sometimes would play blackjack with Billy, but it would always end with his loss, much to his curiosity. One time he got enraged and attacked Billy, but he was thrown out from a mysterious force, which was telekinesis.

After crashing some(Many) times in the ground without Billy doing almost anything, he stopped attacking him and let him go.

Once the rumors about his friendship with Ogre came out, not many people dared to be arrogant in the casino, however there were still people saying things like "Give me a free pass, I am Ogre's friend." But when he said that even he paid the fee, they stood silent.

About Syura, there were some rumors about him letting go Billy even after being kicked out, things like Syura fearing him, or not daring to act brazen in the casino came out as well.

In short, there were only a few people daring to act arrogant in his casino, and those who broke the rules, were snapped in half from Big G.

Billy was currently on his own room, drinking wine as he watched from a window what happened in the game room.

Big G was still overlooking the place, with some smaller minions walking around or playing with the others.

The only ones not paying a fee for playing is Billy himself and his minions, sometimes people would ask to work under him, but when he told them that he had more than enough people to do things from acting as bodyguards to janitors and even sucking dicks, they gave up.

Billy: Maybe I could go down to play again… It will be long until the empire will be poor as fuck, but at least I will be alive when it will happen, and I will have grown too powerful to be eliminated when they will reali-Pffft…

He spit wine in the ground when he found a light blue dot sitting on a table and playing with other people at poker, who seemed to be trembling.
