Chat Group For Magicians
/ Chat Group For Magicians 34 Return to Tokyo
Itazura returned to her fox form and disappeared. According to Moonlight, familiars needs to recuperate and to do that, they had to return to their dimension pocket and will just wait for orders of their master or will go out in their own will after they have rested.
We arrive home in the blink of an eye. I was so amazed by the magic that the magicians hold due to the fact that they can do things like that with just a single snap. They just had to draw a magic circle and gather mana in that area and that's it. I did not expect to become a magician just by joining the chat group Anonymous.
Moonlight returned to the room next to mine. I am now wondering if Moonlight plans to live here with me.
"Growl~"
I touched my stomach and felt an unbelievable hunger. I just remembered that I did not take breakfast and lunch at all. I scratched my head and sigh, I will just go eat some instant ramen for now.
...
After eating instant ramen, I felt a bit good but still a bit hungry. Now that I think about it, after becoming a Magician of the Rank 0, I always feel twice as hungrier as before. Moonlight is resting in that room so I didn't dare to disturb her. Instead, I left the house and decided to go to the convenience store. Of course, I brought the trusty gloves with me. If not for this gloves, I won't get any kind of protection using magic except the uncontrollable Torrent Bullet.
Just like how I was in the past, I covered my face with face mask and put the hoodie in my head. Although its pretty hot weather, it still didn't affect me too much. I think being a Rank 0 magician helped me a lot on that.
After learning the existence of the monsters in the society, I decided to keep my vigilance as high as possible. Unlike in the past where I was ignorant on everything, I am now most aware of the dangers of most people around here.
It didn't take me long to arrive at the convenience store. This time around, I am the only one in the convenience store alongside with the cashier in which turns out to be Erina again. She smiled when she sees me go in. I almost forgot that Erina can still recognize me despite covering my face so I gave her a nod as a gesture.
I go straight to the canned foods section. I realized that my bank account indeed has money in it after the confirmation text message that the bank had sent me. That must be the money from the mission I managed to clear which is to patrol Hachiko's Statue that time. Might as well buy a few canned goods with it. At least, I don't have to keep on cooking with expensive vegetables every day.
Before I can even go to the counter, someone is already making a ruckus in the counter. Of course, its not Erina but a customer...no scratch that, this guy ain't a customer. He is a robber. He aimed a gun on Erina's head.
"Put all the money inside the bag!" he demanded.
After becoming a Rank 0 magician, my senses is better than the normal so even with my distance with the man in the counter, I can easily see that he is sweating a lot and he is kind of irritable. I have read this kind of things in a book of psychology. He is also very cautious on his surroundings and sometimes, tried to wipe his sweat with his arms. I can easily tell that he is a first time robber or he is not really a robber at all. His arms are even shaking when he aimed the gun at Erina. Well, to be exact, its a toy gun in the shape of a real gun and I am betting that this gun of his is only pellet loader one, not the gun that has a real bullet loaded. However, for those people who panics a lot like Erina, she will quickly shiver away from it and will quickly feel the terror on it without noticing that the gun he is holding is a toy gun.
Erina who is afraid of the threat, quickly opens the money box and took out the yen out. I can see in my peripheral view that she is looking at me, pleading for help. I am not a righteous and a heroic person. I don't have any trait that usually deals with other people but since she is a friend, I will let it slide for now. He must have a reason why he is stealing, but I decided to just let it slide for now.
I approached and calmly look at this man. He is clearly unarmed except for the pellet gun. Not even a knife or any kind of side arm that most robbers had in case the gun is disarmed or unavailable. In short, this man is obviously just trying to steal for whatever reasons he have. However, what he was doing is wrong and he is threatening Erina, I can't just sit idly.
"Old man, why rob a convenience store if you can rob a bank on the opposite street?" I asked at him, provoking him.
"Ah!" He shivered but he aims the gun in my face, "I will shoot! Don't move!"
The way he said it is clearly forced. He appears terrifying but he is making he is clearly shaking just by on his voice.
I grip his gun and look at this man. I made the gloves warm a bit so that the plastic gun slowly deform.

"Don't joke on me old man, what am I, a kid?" I said and released the grip on his Toy gun revealing the melted plastic of the gun. The hand print of my grip on the gun is pretty visible which is to say, I intentionally left behind.
