Versatile: Alternate World Chapter 211
Advertisement
If the situation outside can be seen by an outsider, it seems there is some commotion inside. Due to the tinted glasses of the building, it is hard to see what is happening so if anyone would hear the commotion, they wouldn't care about what is happening at all.
But inside, it is total chaos, and everyone inside is fighting.
CRASH!
One thug was sent flying to the shelf crashing all of the contents on that shelf and destroying them. Chairs and tables are also not safe and some of the chairs are already broken and are now good only for firewood.
"What's wrong guys?! I thought all of you would hand my ass on me and humiliate me? How come even though all of you are overwhelming in number, no one is still capable of bringing me down?" I taunt all of them to come at once.
"Don't be cocky you bastard! You haven't seen anything from us just yet!"
The thugs were like zombies, ready to pounce and grab the opportunity of you defenseless. I defend one attacker, another attacker will take advantage of my open and guardless back. But to someone who has experience in battles, both in the past timeline and the current lifetime, these people are just a joke.
One thug tried to attack me with a chair right straight to the face. I am currently defending on a few guys holding pipes so it was hard to immediately guard against him. So in this case, if I can't guard, I will just use the one I am guarding against to guard against the incoming one.
BANG!
The poor bastard immediately fainted the moment the chair hits, allowing me to change my target and repeat the process if necessary. My fists and shoes are enough, I don't need to materialize my Versatile Weapon to get the advantage.
"Useless bastards! You guys are losing to one guy! Beat him up!" the one who ordered to beat me up is now furious.
"But boss, he is so fast and he beat up multiple people at once! He is too strong to handle!"
"F*ck!" the boss shook his head and pulls out a pistol from his shelf. "If you can't beat a bastard like him with a fist, then use a gun to silence injure him, and cripple him!"

Ha, seriously. These guys are all laughable. I grab a random thug near me and hurl him straight to the guy holding a gun. Before the boss can even pull the trigger of the gun, the other guy slammed straight to his face.
The gun fell from his hands which I immediately grab before anyone else could. The boss quickly stood up, only to see his gun getting dismantled to pieces.
"I don't know about you, but I can win any fistfight like this without relying on a gun, you bastard."
...
...
...
The fight did not take long. Although they are thugs, they don't have any stood a chance with my combat capabilities. The people who can are those who are professional in fighting or those who are also capable of fighting head-on with me. Other than that, the thugs are just laughable obstacles.
I ended up tying everyone up and taking a photograph of them. After doing so, I approached the boss that pulls out the gun before and slap him a few times to wake him up.
"Waugh...?!" he was too surprised when he saw my face up close staring at him menacingly. He tried to move but then realized that he was tied up in a rope.
"Untie me!"
"Heh, you think I am stupid? As someone who just came to talk and discuss the debt of my father, you guys are the absolute pieces of garbage. If I am not well versed in fighting then I would be dead before I knew it. This is why it is not encouraged to use a loan shark business as a place to borrow money. You f*ckers are causing the people who can pay money cannot pay it and live a miserable life."
"Then what about us?! Did you think money grows on trees?!"
"If you know that it is hard to earn money, then why did you keep sending thugs to the business of my father? Did you really think my father can earn money if the thugs you are sending to his business establishment chases away his customers? It is still you and your thug's fault that my father can't pay!"
"Just you wait till I get out of my bindings..."
"And what, call someone to assassinate me? So be it. Now that you are helpless, tell me, where is my father?"

"Huh? Do you think I am the police that is responsible for looking for the missing people?! You are barking the wrong tree!"
"Did you think I would ask you this question if I know where he was? You guys are one of the responsible for why my father became like this. If that is the case, isn't this exactly the same thing as your fault?"
"Heh, I am not responsible for why your father is missing. However, he might be missing due to the Katakura Family. Those guys have some serious grudge against your father. You can visit them if you wanted to. They are pretty famous around in this area so I doubt you will get lost finding them. As for me, I wouldn't stoop so low on kidnapping him. I needed his money, not him himself."
He got a point about that part. He just needed the money, so why would he kidnap him? That would make him not being able to pay anymore.
"Anyways, how much is the debt of my father?"
"Heh, what? You will pay?"
I slap his face and asked again while holding his hair. "Answer my question or you will go bald."
"5 million yen! That's the amount your father needed to pay me!"
After hearing the exact amount, I pull out my wallet, and grab the money amounting to 5 million yen and present it to his face.
"Do you see this? Now consider it paid," I said before throwing it in the air like confetti. I left the building after that.
The thugs outside who did not participate in the rumble inside were no longer looking so menacing to me anymore. In fact, they look like they didn't care anymore and seem to be pretending that they didn't see me. What a hilarious bunch.
...
With the next clue obtained, I drive the car once again and drove to the Katakura Mansion. I saw the Katakura Mansion a few times since it is near the mansion I just bought and I can pass by on it. We are basically neighbors so I don't need to know where it was located.
Compared to the other places I visited, for some unknown reason, this place is being plagued with energy so heavy, it kind of reminds me of the miasma emitted by the undead and skeletons. It was heavy and quite annoying.
Does the undead are also spreading around here too? That is impossible so I didn't bother. I scanned the area and I saw that there are plenty of guards inside. Due to my limited mastery of the scanning, I can't accurately find out how many of them were inside.
"Damn, what is the better approach on this? If I infiltrated this place, I would be labeled as an intruder. While if I try to interact with them normally, there is a chance they will not go and see me since I don't have an appointment with them. They might even turn hostile if they find out I am the son of the person they hated the most. It is not easy to do it.
As I was contemplating what should I do, I spotted someone also snooping around the mansion. It was a hooded person so I do not know who the person is. All I saw is that the person was currently writing something in his notebook while looking at the walls that surround the yard of the mansion.
"Am I not the only one who is trying to find access to this house?" I mumbled to myself.
Seeing the guy, I think I can ask him for a way to enter the place. This guy looks like he was snooping around here for quite some time. Although suspicious, I need something suspicious right now that is related to the Katakura Mansion's inhabitants.
I approach the guy quietly. He was so engrossed in taking notes so he didn't notice me approaching. Or maybe my stealth was activated and he didn't notice me. Either way, he didn't see me coming.
"Umm, hello? What are you doing? Are you snooping around too?"
This caused the person snooping around to get shocked and jump away in fright.
"Sh*t, are you from the Katakura family?! Did I just got spotted?!"
Confirmed, this person is also snooping around. Good. I can now ask for questions about her. Hope that this will allow me to find clues about my father's disappearance. It might do well too if I find my father inside."

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.
