Chapter 1443: Burn That Trash!
“Mother, this is the owner of Mamy Restaurant. I just met a bad guy on the way, and they saved me,” Kelly explained quickly.
“How could you run out without telling us? You could buy the sweet tomorrow.” The middle-aged woman looked at Kelly’s swollen face with reddened eyes, and said, “What should your father and I do if something were to happen to you?”
The man went in to get a chopping knife, and said to Kelly, “Where is that bastard who dared to bully my daughter? I am going to fight it out with him!”
“The bad guy is already dead,” Amy said.
The man and woman were stunned. They started looking at Mag differently.
“Thank you for saving Kelly. Please, come in and have a sit,” the woman said gratefully as she bowed deeply.
“I… I’ll buy some alcohol.” The man scratched his head as he put the chopper behind him.
“It’s alright. We just happened to pass by, and did what we should.” Mag smiled and shook his head. He continued, “That fellow deserved it. You don’t have to be afraid. However, since there is a murder case, the Gray Temple and city lord’s castle will investigate the matter. If they look for you, just tell them to come for me at Mamy Restaurant.”
Mag rejected their warm reception. He left with Amy and Connie after Kelly changed and returned him his coat.
“Are you out for live training?” Mag asked curiously as he looked at Connie’s full-black outfit.
Connie nodded proudly, and said, “Yeah. Master told me that there isn’t much meaning for me to keep practicing breaking in and out of Bastie Prison, so he told me to come over to the city’s north to do some live training on some jerks. I’ve already killed 10 such bastards today including this one.”
“I see.” Mag was a little surprised at Rex’s training method, but it was not a bad idea, since they could rid this society of vermin through the training.
“Wow, Big Sister, that’s really impressive.” Amy gave a thumbs up, and eagerly said, “Can you bring me along next time? I’m also very good at beating up bad guys!”
“Err…” Connie was a little hesitant. She looked at Amy, and said, “Although I would like very much to bring you along, I have to run on top of the walls, and I’m afraid you might not be able to catch up with me.”
“It’s alright, you can run on the walls. I can fly.” Amy spread her arms out, and a pair of translucent wings appeared on her back. Her wings flapped gently and she started to fly, even circling around Connie nimbly. With a smile, Amy said, “Look, isn’t this super convenient?”
“Wow, is Little Amy a little flower fairy?” Connie said, surprised and envious, as she looked at Amy, who was suspended in mid-air. With a nod, she said, “If that’s the case, there’s no problem at all.”
“Little Amy, come down.” Mag beckoned Amy.
Amy kept her wings, and landed nicely in Mag’s embrace.
“You can’t use your wings so casually, alright?” Mag whispered to her, and looked around cautiously. Amy’s wings were given to her by the pope. Although the church’s influence in the Roth Empire was not great, such a supernatural gift felt more like it was of another level. Therefore, he didn’t want Amy to show her wings in front of others for the time being.
“Oh.” Amy shrugged. She was a little disappointed, but she quickly looked at Connie, and said, “I still have my wind fire wheels. Even though they might be a little more eye-catching at night, it would be no problem to keep up with your speed.”
“Alright. Then let’s go together tomorrow,” Connie said with a nod.
Mag looked speechlessly at the two who agreed to beat up bad guys. He did not feel right to stop such a positive agreement. As he walked along the street, Mag asked Connie, “Are you going back with us, or are you going to continue training?”
“It’s too early now. I’m not tired at all. Besides, now is the peak period for those scumbags to act. I intend to keep watch on this area for a while more. You guys can go back first.” Connie shook her head, and leaped onto a high wall at the side. She waved goodbye, and quickly disappeared into the night.
“I…” Amy watched Connie leave as she opened her mouth to speak.
“You want to go back to sleep. You have lessons tomorrow.” Mag continued walking forward with Amy in his arms.
After walking for a short while, Mag managed to hail a horse-drawn carriage, and they took it back to the restaurant. When they got back, they happened to meet Irina, who came back from outside.
“Mother.” Amy let go of Mag’s hand, and leaped into Irina’s embrace.
Irina picked Amy up, and then looked at Mag, saying, “I’m hungry.”
“I’m hungry too.” Amy raised her little hand.
“Alright. I’ll go make supper now.” Mag opened the restaurant door with a smile, and poured two cups of warm water for them. After that, he went into the kitchen.
Amy lay in Irina’s embrace as she told her mother all about Jessica’s birthday celebration and the bad guy they met.
“Oh, I didn’t know there are so many bad guys in Chaos City. That’s interesting.” Irina’s eyes lit up after hearing Amy’s story.
“Mother, should we form a team to beat the bad guys up?” Amy suggested excitedly.
Irina nodded, and replied, “Sure. Why don’t we get everyone at the restaurant to go beat the bad guys up together? We can take it as training.”
“That’s not a bad suggestion,” Mag agreed as he peeked his head out from the kitchen. Why didn’t he think of such a constructive idea? He thought for a while, and said, “If that’s the case, we will need a uniform and a very cool team name, what do you think?”
“We’re just beating bad guys up. Is there a need for all that?” Irina scoffed, and said, “Why don’t we call ourselves the Anomaly Judges?”
“The FFF gang?” Mag raised his brow. “Then we would still need to prepare black robes and chainsaws?”
Irina thought for a while, and said with a nod, “It sounds pretty good.”
“What about our chant?”
“Burn that Trash!” Amy raised a torch.
“Hm? That’s not bad.” Irina’s eyes lit up. “Then should we catch all the baddies and burn them to death?”
“That way they won’t be able to harm innocent big sisters anymore.” Amy nodded.
Mag smiled. He returned to the kitchen to finish cooking. To oppress the baddies, they had to use force, and if the need arose, they had to show them their prowess.

The next morning, people from the Gray Temple arrived.
“Mr. Mag. An orc was murdered in the northern part of the city yesterday. According to our investigations, you and your employee are involved in this case. We hope that you can provide us your assistance in our investigation,” a young inspector said to Mag, who opened the door.
