The Unnamed God. I'm really Not a God You Guys!

Chapter 286: Fucked Up

Note to self, slapping someone at their own wedding is really bad. 

But I still believe what he did is even worst. 

His poor bride is on the side all dressed up and everything. 

Meanwhile, the guy is ignoring her completely. 

Well, right now he's on the ground. 

Howling in pain. 

Clutching his face.

Is he trying to hide the red handprint on his face? 

Perhaps. 

I better apologize right now. 

[Ah, sorry about that. Was a reflex.] 

"How the hell is that a reflex?! Reflex my ass!" 

He gets up angrily. 

"How dare you hurt my perfect face!"

Actually. 

[How dare you show up to your own wedding like that?!] 

"Mind your own business asshole!" 

Fair enough. 

That was showing a lack of restraint on my part. 

But you see am very jealousI mean righteous! 

"I hereby challenge you to a proxy duel to the "

That is when the girl by his side elbows him. 

Then I slightly hear her whisper that it wouldn't work. 

Because of the church of Gluto or something. 

Wait, is the prostitute smarter than the young master? 

This is sad. 

Talk about a waste of education.

I can hear various parties requesting for the investigator lady to intervene. 

She steps up. 

"Alright, I'll be arresting him!" 

For now, I cooperate. 

She points a dagger at my throat, and we slowly exit the premises. 

I'm sure I could overpower her. 

Knock her out instantly.

Her weapon is dangerously close to my vitals but who cares. 

She pushes me toward an alley on the side. 

Is this supposed to be a shortcut?

I just need to wait until she is distracted.

"Committing a crime against these guys is enough to have you locked. At the very least for public disturbance. You can be locked for years in worst cases.!" 

Should I do it? 

[So is that where you are bringing me?] 

"What do you think?!" 

Yep. I may as well escape now! 

*WOOSH*

"What are you?!"

*SMACK*

Then she's out cold. 

Now what? 

Am I a criminal from now on? 

I have no clue what to do.

"Holy shit dude! Did you kill a city enforcer?!"

My thief friend is back. 

[Not yet. I did knock her unconscious.] 

"Brother, I saw you from a distance. You are in trouble now."

[Totally. Wait, anything we can use to guarantee her silence? What about a magical contract?] 

"*Sigh* You can try, but these guys are stubborn. They don't capitulate easily."

[We just need a bit of time then?] 

"No, if she goes missing for long we'll all be in trouble. They'll close the city and search it up from top to bottom."

[So I better run, right?] 

"For sure. Also, I won't be able to stick with you or I'll be deemed suspicious."

I understand. 

There is no need for him to risk his life for me. 

That would be too much to ask. 

[Alright, take care and have a good life!] 

Go back, get Wolfie, run!

As I'm leaving, I can't help but think to myselfwhy not. 

I'm already on a tight schedule.

I climb a roof and start running. 

This time I'll stay away from 

Any dangerous-looking area. 

I keep going until finally, I reach the bakery. 

For some reason, there is a light in there. 

As I enter, I see the old man awake sitting in his usual chair. 

"I was wondering where you went."

[Yeah, about that. I'll have to leave the city.]

"Why?"

[I was running on top of a roof and fell. Then I disrupted a wedding.]

"And?" 

[I got arrested and got told they would let me rot in jail for years, so I fled.]

"I see. That should be easy to fix since there was no violence involved."

[Eh, I kind of rendered a city investigator unconscious.] 

"Not dead?" 

[Pretty sure she's still alive. But now that I assaulted an enforcer I gotta run.]

"What about the bakery?"

[If I stay they may even close it for all I know. Don't worry you can go to the Mystery House to grab the gold I made. You should have enough for retirement.]

"Do I look like I want to retire!" 

[Obviously not haha. But still, you won't have any money trouble. You'll be able to just cook for yourself.]

"That would be boring."

[You can even get a new cook.]

"How about we try to resolve all of it peacefully?"

[I kinda offended two big families. They seem to control the law enforcers. They ordered one to come to do their bidding in a heartbeat.] 

"So you've made your choice?" 

[I'll be honest with you, old man. I'm close to impossible to kill, but I don't want to endanger you or Wolfie.] 

He smiles gently. 

"Always worried about others, eh?" 

[No, most of the time I don't care. This world can be destroyed for all I care. I just care for a few people.] 

"You are saying I am one of them?" 

[Of course old man. We may have not known each other for that long but I do consider you my mentor.] 

"That is touching. But I feel like you've failed to consider everything. How will you even run away?"

[I'll just run. I'll disappear in the wild.] 

"Don't you know that one can't leave this place without getting targeted by the system?" 

[What does it do exactly?] 

"Unbelievable pain and pressure." 

That reminds me of the slave contract. 

[Tell me, old man, between the city system and a slave contract which one is the hardest to overcome?] 

"Without any external help? Slave contract for sure." 

Divine energy OP! 

[*Chuckle* Then don't worry about me. I'll just breeze through.] 

He looks intrigued, but he doesn't say anything else. 

I give him a bear hug.

Then one last smile. 

[Alright Wolfie let's go.]

"Wait, kid! Your 50 gold deposit!"

[Hehe, keep it. I'll be fine either way. Just live a good life for me. That is my sole request.]

He nods. 

[Later old man.] 

I resolutely open the door and.

On the other side is someone about to knock. 

Hand raised in the air. 

We both freeze for a second. 

How is she already here?! 

I literally just knocked her out!
