16. A Helping hand

As it has already been a long time since the last update, maybe you should read the previous chapters again to know where we left off guys.

Thank you for reading this, and for your comments, really.

As I arrived in some alley where I heard the plea of help come from, I found an elder woman lying on the floor with blood oozing out of her head.

But the other thing was that there was an overweight guy strangling a little kid to death right next to the woman.

"STOP THE SCREAMING YOU LITTLE SHIT!" The man was about to break her neck but I dashed at him fast and punched him in his gut with my right.

*PAH*

"Uagh!" The balding man crashed into the building behind him and the kid fell onto the floor struggling to breath and crying.

'I need to check on that woman. If she's still alive I can save her with my healing magic.' I looked back at the woman and saw her chest rising and falling slightly, indicating that she's still breathing, although weakly.

"ouhhh... yo-u, YOU BASTARD. WHO ARE YOU AND WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!" The overweight man yelled at me while standing up.

"Hoh, I thought I hit you hard enough to fall unconscious. Seems like I need to hit harder next time." I said as I faced him.

"You dare... I once was a magic knight! So you better scram before I tear you apart! You have no business here." He yelled but seemed to have calmed down.

'This would explain his sturdyness by a bit I suppose. He probably has some body enchanting magic to shrug off one of my blows. And he sensed my aura, or what I let him sense of it better said. That's why he takes me serious now. What a joke he is.' I thought with a smirk creeping up my face.

"Shut it fatso and come at me." I said while waving my hand.

"Grrr, I gave you a chance to continue living but you choose death?! So be it!" As he said that he pulled out a purple book out his ass... Or from somewhere else I don't know, and it started floating.

'I don't need to waste mana for this one.' I thought while getting ready to beat his ass.

The kid that was almost strangled to death before hurried to the old woman and looked at me with big eyes.

"Don't worry girl, she's gonna be fine." I said with the most reassuring smile I could muster and concentrated on the bald villian again.

[Passive Skill -{Big Brother}- activated!]

'Oh, almost forgot about that. Poor guy gonna die with my stats doubled haha.' The reassuring smile vanished and a devilish grin creeped onto my face.

"Uwahh!! Why the hell are you grinning like that?! Gravity Magic, [Mountain Drop] !" He got scared from my grin but quickly used his magic on me.

A purplish mountain like construct made out of mana formed above me and then engulfed my whole body.

"HEHEHEAHAHAA! This is one of my strongest spells! Do you feel it already?! The crushing feeling of a whole mountain dropped on your head! Mwuahahaha!" He laughed hysterically.

Of course, I could have dodged.

And if we're real here I could have just speedblitzed him. With my doubled stats he would be dead with a light push against the wall or a fast kick in the face. But, where would be the fun in-

"GRANDMA IS DYING WAAAAAAH!" A girls crying interrupted my inner monolog.

'Damn I really almost forgot her.' I thought.

"HUH?! WHY AREN'T YOU BEING CRUSHED AND BEGGING FOR FORGI-Ughh!!" But before he could continue he was send flying again.

"Guess today isn't your lucky day. Sorry but I gotta save her grandma without you annoying the hell outta me." I said while calling Ikofos back and storing it again.

"I hope I didn't kill him..." Muttering that I turned around and walked towards the granny and girl. I only hit him with the back end of Ikofos and not the bladed end.

To be honest his "one of my strongest spells" was by far not as heavy as a mountain and I could move almost without problems, a bit slower, but nothing mayor.

Anyway.

Standing in front of the granny I stretched out my right hand above her while holding my Grimoire in my left.

"Holy magic, [Heal]" After chanting my hand began glowing golden and a warm light enveloped the granny and the little girl that was sitting beside her.

She started healing at visible speed. The bruises on her face slowly vanished and the wound on her head closed. She also gained a bit of color back, she was ghostly pale before.

"Hm, while I already at it..." Turning around I walked to where I smashed the man into the wall and tried to ignore the blood splattered everywhere. Ugh, I feel like throwing up. But laying in front of the hole the man made while crashing into the wall was a purple book, his Grimoire.
