"Is it a kidnapping case? How many people are involved? Can you pinpoint their location?" The female captain of the security team revealed a serious face that seemed incongruous with her intelligence.

“They told me to leave the money at the door of 204 Bette Street…” Mill recalled and said, “And they also claimed to have ninety-three people, which didn’t seem like they were lying.”

"Hai?"

Chapter Three: The Black Stone

Raji was originally a middle-aged thug living in a remote mountain village near the Rainbow Wing Kingdom, inhabited only by humans. He was essentially a village bully in that village.

However, he knew that he was just a low-level psychic, or in the parlance of those big cities, only F-level psychic ability. So no matter how much the people in his village were afraid of him, he was nothing outside the village.

Every now and then, people dressed in bright colors that were much more vibrant than those in the village would come. These people were either people with some status in big cities or high-level psychic abilities (in his eyes), and they were people he couldn't afford to offend.

Just when Raj thought his life would consist of bullying ordinary people or those with lower-level psychic abilities, a young man who had gone out to make his way in the world returned to his hometown.

Raj knew the young man; he had eaten at Raj's house when Raj was born, but they hadn't had much contact since.

However, the young man seemed to remember him and politely invited him to drink as soon as he returned. The young man, however, seemed to have a low alcohol tolerance and got drunk after only two drinks.

After getting drunk, he seemed to unconsciously show off a stone to Raj, saying that it could enhance his psychic abilities.

Raj was easily tempted by his words and took the irregularly shaped black stone while the young man was drunk and asleep.

Perhaps because his psychic energy level was too low, he felt a significant increase in his psychic energy and magic power the moment he grasped the stone.

Strangely, the young man seemed to have forgotten what happened yesterday when he woke up the next day, and it didn't seem like he had lost anything. However, even with Raj's intelligence, he couldn't figure it out, and he was actually somewhat relieved.

The young man didn't stay in the village for more than a few days before leaving. Before he left, he seemed to unintentionally tell Raj that with his abilities, he shouldn't stay in such a remote place and should go to a big city to develop his career.

Raji believed it almost by accident, so he took his two underlings to Ur City in the Rainbow Wing Kingdom. The reason he didn't go to the capital was because Raji was afraid that he might offend the nobles there if he made a mistake.

However, when Raji arrived in Ur, he was dumbfounded to find that he seemed to know nothing. He had no choice but to use his psychic ability [Bio Disguise] to do some petty theft with his underlings.

[Biological Disguise] can disguise him and his underlings as other creatures and gain some of their abilities and characteristics. These abilities and characteristics can be strengthened after being enhanced by stones. Unfortunately, most advanced species can only disguise themselves as an outer shell and do not have any abilities or characteristics.

Thanks to this ability, Raj and his henchmen have not been caught yet, but he is clearly not satisfied with this enhanced ability.

Today, he and his underlings have decided to pull off a big heist: a kidnapping!

First, he and his underlings found a blonde, wavy-haired elven girl whose costume materials looked expensive. Since they had heard that elves were very sensitive, he transformed himself and his underlings into three white cats beforehand, and then followed the elven girl to a secluded place.

Although the elven girl sensed something following her on the way, she put her suspicions aside when she saw that it was three cats, since elves have a great affinity for small animals.

Then she was drugged by the cat that jumped onto her shoulder.

The plan was going smoothly, and Raj could almost see piles of money flying towards him.

However, since it was his first time doing something like this, things were full of mistakes, such as who he should ask for money from.

However, actions speak louder than words; before even considering such a thing, Raj had already kidnapped the person...

"How long do you want me to say this? I'm not a rich girl, I'm not rich at all! Why did you kidnap me?!" Ashia, whose forehead was gleaming, shouted loudly.

"Do you think I'm stupid? Your clothes look expensive and you dare to complain about being poor?" But Raj didn't buy it at all and picked up her phone to have his underlings make a call.

Ashia felt the veins bulging on her forehead: "That's a school uniform! A school uniform, you idiot!"

However, Raj selectively ignored what he said.

"Boss, this girl only has one contact," henchman A said dejectedly.

"What? Then let's call him." Raj said he didn't care who he called as long as he could get the money.

Then things happened just like in the previous chapter.

Because of the suspected large-scale kidnapping case, the police force dispatched all available personnel to participate in the rescue operation, so Mil wasn't too worried, although he wasn't worried about that woman with the big wavy hair anyway.

As soon as Mir entered the hall, he spotted the long, straight black-haired girl sitting there expressionless. She sat on the chair with her smooth, slender legs crossed, wearing a dowdy floral dress she had bought in the modern world, but it did not detract from her beauty at all. Her fair skin showed no signs of having grown up in a mountain village.

It's a pity that ** is so sad.

"It's such a pity that ** is too regrettable." Mil once again spoke his mind.

Hearing Mir's words, Xia Ye turned to him and asked, "Do you have any complaints about my **?"

Sensing the murderous intent, Mir wisely refrained from courting further trouble and awkwardly changed the subject, saying, "No, a friend of mine has been kidnapped, and I'm going to rescue her. Do you want to come along? You're just killing time anyway, right?" Damn it, I wasn't planning on going in the first place.

Xia Ye remained expressionless, it was unclear whether this was her natural personality or something she had developed after losing her family, but she stood up and walked to Mir's side as an answer.

"Alright, let's go." After saying that, Mir slowly walked out of the police station, looking like he was going for a walk, not like he was going to rescue someone.

The girl paused for a moment, then walked out at the same speed as Mir.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"Boss? Do you think that kid can really come up with a million?" Henchman B didn't seem to believe that a kid could come up with a million in two days.

"Hmph, so what if that kid can't come up with a million? We can still make a lot of money by selling this girl. Elves are said to be quite valuable on the black market." Raji didn't seem to care at all whether the kid who answered the phone could come up with a million.

"Hehe, the boss is really smart." Henchman A didn't miss the chance to flatter him.

"Boss, we're just killing time anyway, how about we take this opportunity to have some fun?" After saying this, he chuckled lewdly.

"Hehe, you're right. I've been holding back for a long time to plan this operation." Raj also chuckled lewdly.

Then, to Ashia's horrified expression, the three of them began to undress.

Chapter Four is just a bit stronger.

Perhaps because Xia Ye had just arrived in this other world, she was extremely curious about all sorts of strange "people" and objects. She kept stopping and starting along the way, looking like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden. Mir didn't stop her, which caused her to waste a lot of time.

When they arrived at the scene, the team leader was already directing the retreat.

Raji, handcuffed with magic-suppressing handcuffs, was completely bewildered, still reeling from being arrested by dozens of police officers.

"Could I have kidnapped some noble lady?" The thought echoed in his mind.

His plan was too simplistic; he had no specific target. He saw a girl dressed in expensive clothes and wanted to kidnap her. However, he didn't realize that expensive clothes might belong to a nobleman. He hadn't considered this at all and lacked the shrewdness he had in the mountain village.

Raj couldn't understand why he had become so reckless. Could it be...?

As Raj was thinking, he unconsciously stopped in his tracks, and then the detective behind him slapped him on the head: "Behave yourself, don't even think about running away!"

Raj had to give up thinking.

"Oh, kid, you're here. The girl you know seems to have been hurt; she won't answer when I call her," the captain greeted Mir as he approached.

Ashia was stunned. After all, the philosophical scene of three middle-aged men "exercising" naked in front of her was too shocking, and she couldn't recover for a while.

"President?" Mil tried to wake Ashia from her frozen state, but it had no effect.

Ashia's disregard for Mir seemed to annoy him, so he slapped her plump little bottom.

Snapped!

Mir successfully awakened the guild master!

The guild leader used the Lady's Fist on Mir!

Mir tried to dodge.

The president uses the reflection from her smooth forehead!

Mir was blinded by the light and lost his chance to dodge!

The Lady's Fist hit its mark perfectly, with outstanding results!

"What are you doing, you pervert?!" the president, who had been taken advantage of, shouted.

"I'm checking if your development is normal," Mil said righteously as he squatted down, clutching his stomach.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he sensed that Xia Ye seemed somewhat dissatisfied with his behavior.

Ashia, who had originally intended to continue arguing with Mir, also noticed Summer Night standing coldly beside Mir.

Who is this girl?

“Her name is Xia Ye. I brought her back from the mortal world. She has just awakened her psychic abilities, and I plan to take her to BBA so she can enroll,” Mil replied.

Ashia selectively ignored Mir's address to the Dean and extended her hand in a friendly greeting to Xia Ye: "Hello, my name is Ashia Skala, and I am an elf."

Xia Ye glanced curiously at Ashia's pointed ears, then reached out her right hand to hold Ashia's hand and briefly introduced herself: "Xia Ye is a human."

"Then I..."

"Then let's go back to the station to make a statement, young man, you come too." The captain, who had been ignored for a while, interrupted Ashia very rudely.

"Hey~ why do I have to go too?" Mil said, dissatisfied.

"Because you're very skilled at taking statements, and you're also one of the parties involved," the captain said in an irrefutable tone.

So Mir and Xia Ye, who had just come from the police station, went back to the police station. By the time the three of them came out of the police station, the sun was almost setting.

Along the way, Ashia kept explaining various things about this world to Xia Ye, while Mir was not idle either, buying a bag of pepper and tossing it around to play with it.

"Don't be fooled by the fact that most of the creatures in this country are humanoid. In fact, many of them are larger than houses. They only maintain their humanoid form because of a rule set by Her Majesty the Queen. If creatures that are too large and too small live together, it's easy for them to trample each other. So, for the sake of order, Her Majesty the Queen set this rule. This country is probably the only place where so many creatures live together harmoniously." Ashia explained to Xia Ye, who was curiously watching the diverse figures of the pedestrians on the street.

"Then why would these races study in the same school?" The cold beauty's grief over the loss of her loved ones seemed to have lessened considerably, and her voice was no longer harsh.

"Because each race studies in different classes, there is generally no mixing, except for the class that this second-generation official is in." The guild leader, who was patiently explaining to the newbie, nodded towards Mil, who had accidentally thrown pepper powder under the Phase Train.

Is there anything special about his class?

"His class is a bunch of oddballs who can't be taught using their own race's methods. But apart from this kid, everyone else is a genius whose psychic abilities have reached level C. I don't know how this guy manages to get along with those four monsters." The guild leader glanced at Mil, who was lying on the ground trying to reach for pepper powder.

"I'm also very curious why that BBA class assigned me to. Although my psychic abilities have reached D level, they feel much inferior to theirs in terms of quality. If I have any other special skills, it's probably just that I'm a bit strong." He said this in a defiant tone, as if he felt looked down upon and somewhat dissatisfied, despite his obvious curiosity.

After failing to grab the pepper powder again, Mir gave up on using his hands and instead lifted the Phase Train, which was many times heavier than a train in the real world, with one hand, while using his other hand to grab the pepper powder.

Yes, with one hand, and without the hand tremors that you would experience when lifting heavy objects.

Ashia: "..."

Summer Night: "..."

"What race are you anyway?!" Ashia exclaimed in surprise.

Mir hesitated for a moment before answering, "It should be a human?"

"I don't understand! Why are you answering my question with a question?!" The guild leader felt exhausted talking to this guy.

“Then I am a puppet.” Mir said this with certainty.

"What is the Puppet Clan? I've never even heard of it!" The president's excellent grades told her that there was indeed no such race among the knowledge she had acquired.
