Chapter 257

Lucky 257

The Chief of Police just witnessed something tiring earlier and he did not want any of that shit again.

'The Vice-president just abducted a guy.'

They were all dumbfounded when they found that Calix and Esmeralda were gone.

They did not know what happened.

In the end, they decided to keep quiet. Every one of them understood that Calix Romoel was connected to the military, and they might get fired.

"I want to see Calix Romoel."

"Sorry, but there's no person like that here."

The chief was standing still on his opinion of keeping quiet.

"You..."

Marianne was mad that she wanted to transform this place into a frozen house.

"Marianne, you have to stop. You will only cause trouble."

"... Humph!!"

She scoffed but she did not do anything.

The cops were relieved. Most of them were TA Users but they could sense that Marianne had a powerful Term Attribute. If a battle indeed happened in the station, it would be a big problem.

"Your name is Chief McClanahan AwtsGege, right?"

This time, Kimberly did the talking. She looked amiable and the cops thought that she would be gentle with them.

But the next thing the woman said was much scary.

"I can fire you. No, I can fire everyone here and they will never have a job again."

She smiled, she looked like an angel. Yet her tongue was sharp.

"A- are threatening us!?"

"Yes. Isn't it obvious?"

She crossed her arms.

"Who are you?"

One of the cops asked.

"I'm Kimberly Cudgel, I'm Mark Cudgel's daughter and the COO of Cudgel Tech. I remember that this station asked for a batch of weapons, maybe I can do something."

She grinned.

"Y- you're lying."

The chief stuttered when he realized that the woman in front of him was related to the Cudgel.

She is the daughter of Mark Cudgel and her position in the company is high!? What the heck!?

The cops swallowed their saliva. This was getting dangerous.

"I can inquire about everyone's info and fire them. And if you think you will have a decent job after that is nothing but a fantasy. My family has a strong connection in every industry in this country. The only place for you guys is to leave this country."

"L- leave this country?"

"We will not!!"

Dellia was one of the safest countries against the Aberrants. It was one of the most peaceful and prosperous countries. Leaving this paradise would be a stupid idea.

"I can do that. I can push you to that decision-- that leaving this country is better than facing me."

The cops were sweating.

If this woman was indeed the daughter of Mark Cudgel, then their lives were basically over.

"M- maybe we can talk about this!"

"T- that's right!"

Some of the cops kneeled and kowtowed. They knew the danger of leaving Dellia.

Marianne, who witnessed the whole scene, was looking weirdly at Kimberly.

'And they say that I'm the bad woman.'

She shook her head. She had a bad attitude but Kimberly was more dangerous.

'Her tongue is enough to kill someone. They say that Mark Cudgel has the sharpest mouth of all, but I guess they are wrong. Someone inherited his ability and she's stronger.'

Marianne was impressed. At least Kimberly couple subdued the cops using her tongue.

The cops were frightened and talked to her, but Kimberly was just staring at them like they were dirty insects.

'I witnessed a lot of things after I worked at the company. You must never show your weakness or else the Directors will eat you alive.'

She looked at the Chief and the old cop flinched. He wiped his sweat, he did not know who to side with.

Should he side with the Vice president and keep quiet or should he side with Kimberly Cudgel?

He gritted his teeth and his lips quivered.

"Proof, I want to know if you are really Mark Cudgel's daughter."

Nobody knows about the Cudgel's current heir. All they know was that Chen Cudgel was gone and another person took his place as the new heir.

"Hoh, so you're saying I'm fake?"

She raised her brow.

"N- no, I just want to know if you can really help us."

Kimberly used her spatial ring and tons of stuff came out of her ring.

Everyone was shocked.

"Is this enough?"

"Y- yes, absolutely."

They were surprised. They heard that Cudgel Tech created a set of spatial rings and they were not for sale. So the fact that Kimberly had a spatial ring showed her status.

"Now, tell me where Calix Romoel is?"

"H- how did you know?"

"It's obvious. You guys are acting strange and I guessed that Calix is not here."

Marianne was confused.

"What do you mean Calix is not here?"

She asked Kimberly.

"He was here, but I assume someone took him. Am I right?"

Kimberly glanced at the Chief and the old cop was guilty. The Vice president did not even talk to him, the woman just abducted a murderer!

'I don't know what is happening anymore. I hope I can still have my job after this.'

He sighed. The only choice was to speak the truth. Even the cops decided to speak, at least they could ask Kimberly to spare them.

Kimberly and Marianne listened to them, but their expressions turned ugly as time passed.

They realized that Vice President Esmeralda Margaret abducted Calix, and even the cops could not react because the woman escaped so fast. She used her darkness and left the place.

"... This is going to be tough."

Kimberly touched her eyeglasses.

Even Marianne was frowning.

Everyone understood that Esmeralda is a monster. Not a simple monster, she is a woman who lived for at least a hundred years.

Kimberly did not have enough information but she heard that Esmeralda was one of the founding people who built the country.

The declaration of the country of Dellia was announced almost 130 years ago.

'Esmeralda has a secret Dungeon. It's a place where she put criminals and tortures them to get the information... Shit!!'

Kimberly immediately realized the situation.

"There's only one reason why a woman is interested in Calix."

"You mean..."

Listening to Kimberly, Marianne easily got the situation.

"Ah, Calix, why does this scenario always happen to you?"

Kimberly sighed. This was the second time that this happened. As if Calix is a kidnapers' magnet.

"Marianne, do you know someone who knows Esmeralda's lifestyle?"

"Me? ... Now that I think of it, I think I know someone. She's a female Beastkin."

"Then, we have to talk to her."

"Are we just going to leave Calix like that? Should we search for him first?"

"Don't worry, Calix will be fine."

Kimberly turned around and left the station. Of course, she did not forget to contact her father. She was decisive in expelling every one of the people who worked in this police station.
