SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Chapter 146 Wanted: Dead or Alive

Inside a police station, Roel is looking at the wanted posters while crossing his arms. He remembers the scene when the children and their parents reunited, especially the five-year-old girl and her mother. The two of them cried so much that even Roel had watery eyes when he saw it.

Roel is thinking while looking at the pictures of Carlos and Danny.

"I still can't believe that these two scums are leading a vigilante group. Were they really just undercovers? No one will probably believe it before. Their greed for money is known. They were able to keep their position because someone is helping them and their wealth is cleverly made legal. That syndicate is really getting more systematic. With the help of those companies, the money they will get will not be against the law.

I heard that Carlos and Danny invested their money in a business, and the return on their investment is several times higher. The business is under the management of a subsidiary company that belongs to the Beast Guild. Olan and Tusla, who died, are their dogs. Scum or not, Carlos and Danny are truly cleaning up the dirt. Now, big companies and guilds are hunting them, even if ordinary people are thankful to them, who will not be tempted by the money on their heads." As Roel scans the wanted posters, his grips on his arms tighten. Even though he is a policeman, he hopes the vigilantes will never be caught.

The wanted posters circulated on the internet.

Carlos' and Danny's heads are worth 100 million pesos. Vacuum is fifty million pesos. Miu is thirty million pesos, and Simpman is ten million pesos.

They are wanted: dead or alive.

Miu's face is blank. Simpman is no longer fat but as thin as a skeleton, according to the description of the witness.

Inside the headquarters of the Dragon Guards, a picnic is happening near the lake.

The dragon guards are sitting together while Gan and Mari are cooking barbecue.

Emily, Yuno, and Anne are sitting on the edge of the balcony of the mushroom cottage while giggling and watching video on their phones.

Seanlu's face looks ugly as he stares at the wanted posters on his phone.

"That damn fat man! He turned me into Simpman. Now he makes me look like a skeleton!" Seanlu thought with anger.

"Hahahaha, Boss, you've really touched the nerves of those families and guilds!" said Busca.

Edgar smiled when he heard Busca, then he said,"Face is important to them. Don Maywire is the leader of the group. He cares a lot about his face, so most of their attention now will be put on Sweepers. The vigilante group that will appear next will receive much less attention from them."

"Hahaha, boss, I haven't thought of the name of the group yet, but I believe I can think of a better name than The Simp," said Busca while laughing. The others also laugh.

Seanlu's face looks more ugly.

"It's Zip! I said The Zip!" shouted Seanlu, which made the others laugh louder.

"Time to eat!" shouted Gan.

Emily stood up and put her phone in her storage space. She put her hands on the railing of the balcony, then jumped with a backflip. She rides a wind wave in midair, then gently lands on the ground. Yuno and Anne look at her with envy. Edgar is teaching them magic, but they haven't formed their mana core yet.

After the picnic, the dragon guards continue their training while Edgar went to the lounge with Gin. They are watching a news while drinking beers.

A female reporter is interviewing a citizen.

"What can you say about the vigilante that appears?" asked the female reporter named Elma Fusto.

"Our place became much safer. I don't know if I must root for them because what they are doing is against the law," said a woman in her sixties.

Elma interviewed the others at different ages and social statuses. The youth aren't too cautious with their words, and they directly said that they are rooting for the vigilante. There are others who don't support the vigilante.

Edgar and Gin smile as they watch the news.

"She is a rare reporter. She only presents facts. Many viewers watch her because of that. The other media keep smearing us and want us to look like evil. She is lucky that her station is owned by the Co family, or else she would have been fired long ago," said Edgar as he drinks his beer.

Meanwhile, there is a huge debate happening in Congress. Congressmen are pushing a law for hyperbeings, but some congressmen are blocking it.

"How can there be an inhumane proposal like that? A GPS for every hyperbeing? They are our heroes! How can we treat our heroes like criminals?" said Congressman Rosales.

"Many new hyperbeings have appeared that dare to commit crimes! Are we going to allow more Vacuum, Miu, and Simpman to appear?! For the sake of our citizens and peace in society, this proposal must turn into law!" said Congressman Barter.

The congressmen kept debating. They both sound rational. Congressman Rosales leads a quite strong party that is more concerned with the welfare of ordinary people. Congressman Barter belongs to a strong party that closely works with top families and guilds. Many representatives of other parties attended the session, and they haven't made the decision yet, but they are leaning on Congressman Rosales. Barter notices it, and his face is turning ugly.

Rosales went to a private restaurant with his high-ranking party members after the session.

"Hahahaha, does Barter think that we don't know their plan?! That Sypher really did a good job! It is now the best opportunity to eradicate the scum! They treat the vigilante group as criminals, but what about the hyperbeings that manage the gangs and commit dirty deeds for them?!" said Rosales with anger.

The party members nod. They agree with Rosales.

"I know that we cannot totally block it because politics is compromise. They have strong connections, and they can definitely make the majority agree through whatever means in their arsenal, but the more we delay it, the more dirt is removed, and the fewer victims like my duaghter will appear," said Rosales with melancholy.

The party members tap the shoulder and back of Rosales to comfort him.

Rosales keeps delaying the law, which makes Barter's face ugly every session.

Don Maywire knows it. He wanted to assassinate Rosales, but Viel Loska personally visited his house and ambiguously gave a warning. They must play within the rules of the game, or else PHA too can break them.

Don's eyes are bloodshot. He walks to his secret room, which leads to his underground hall, where he must vent his anger.

Within the car that belongs to PHA, Viel is talking to Owen.

"Did you find him?" asked Viel.

"No, sir, if Rico is captured, he should not be kept in Don's house. They said that he applied for leave and never returned. Sir, I'm afraid the worst has already happened," said Owen with a sad face. Rico helped them gather intelligence and foiled some of the families' plans.

In a district in Manila where the guilds are located, there is a building with a crest of the capital letter BG with a claw mark. It's the crest of the Beast Guild, the top-5 in the country. Their members have abilities that can turn parts or whole parts of their bodies into beastmen.

At the top of the building, the manager name Chris is reporting the recent events to the guild leader, Sigler.

Sigler has long braided purple hair and a web tattoo on both arms. He was in a broken world when the vigilante group appeared.

Chris has sweat on his face as he reports. He feels the killing intent of Sigler.

"Sir, Cobra, the hyperbeing responsible for smuggling magical materials and sometimes traffic women, was killed by Simpman. The magical materials in the warehouse that are supposed to be smuggled are taken by PHA, so we were not able to get the beast cores from our business partner. I was sending hyperbeings that just returned from a broken world to guard Tusla, but they were too late to arrive.Tusla and Olan were killed by Vacuum, who belong to a Vigilante group."

Sigler moves his index finger.

"Acck!" Chris is lifted to the air. His neck is tied with an almost invisible thread. His face is turning dark.

Sigler sharply stares at Chris.

"Take their heads, or I will take your head!"
