Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 23 Valshus
With 30 kronor in his pocket, Emmerich walked around a lot and finally arrived at a bar.

Yes, even in Xiachao, there are leisure places such as bars, of course most of them are closely related to the gangs.

The boy would not enter through the main entrance.

The backyard was filled with corpses that had been torn into pieces beyond recognition. They were mostly girls, and most of them were very young.

"Hey, isn't this Emmerich?"

The gang member in the backyard, with crossbones tattooed on his arm, grinned when the boy came in and said, "It's not time to work yet. Have you figured it out?"

"No, it's not, Lord Barry." Emmerich lowered his head humbly and didn't look at the corpses.

He has a job. Every once in a while, he comes to this bar controlled by the Skeleton Gang and carries the bodies of girls who were sent to the big guys to be played with to death, and sends them to the corpse guild.

The salary for this job is not high, and it can only provide enough supplies for one person to be half full.

"I've said it before. If you sell your sister to Lord Luke, you won't have to live such a hard life." Barry forced a lewd smile on his face, patted the boy's thin shoulder, and educated him with the tone of an experienced person: "When the time comes, I will say a few good words for you, and maybe I can make you an official member of 'Skeleton'."

Emmerich said nothing, but lowered his head, with flames of anger in his eyes.

"It's so boring. I feel like a dead person every time."

Barry sneered. He was used to this guy. He said in a boring tone, "Let's see how long you can hold on. Hehe."

"Lord Barry, I, I'm here to buy nutritional supplements." Seeing that the other party did not continue the topic, Emmerich breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stated his purpose.

"Huh? Buying nutritional supplements?" Barry was a little surprised. He looked Emmerich up and down and asked suspiciously, "Where did you get the money? Do you know how much the nutritional supplements cost?"

"I, I have money, Lord Barry." Emmerich took out three coins, each with a face value of 10 crowns.

"Barry half-closed his eyes, took 30 crowns from the boy, and asked in a harsh voice: "Where did you get this money from? Tell me the truth!"

"Lord Barry, I found it from a dead scavenger." Emmerich had thought of an excuse before coming.

It's not a rare thing to find it from a dead scavenger. At most, it's just good luck.

"Well"

Barry really didn't doubt it. He rolled his eyes and grinned, "Boy, you're lucky. Where did you find it? Take me with you to make a fortune next time?"

Emmerich scratched his head with an innocent look on his face: "Okay, Master Barry, but I don't know if we can meet again, hehehe."

"Wait here."

Barry said this and turned back into the bar.

Not long after, he came out again and threw two tubes of nutrients over: "Here, the nutrients you asked for, here they are."

"Two, two tubes?" Emmerich widened his eyes and said anxiously, "Lord Barry, it should be three, three tubes!"

"Three tubes? That was in the past."

Barry sneered and acted helpless: "My price here is 15 kronor per tube, take it or leave it."

"Then, then give me back the money and I'll buy it somewhere else!" Emmerich mustered up his courage and begged humbly, "Is this okay, Master Barry?"

"Fuck you, little stutterer!"

Unexpectedly, Barry frowned, suddenly became furious, and punched Emmerich in the face.

Emmerich was knocked to the ground by a punch, his head was dizzy, but Barry rushed up again, kicked him hard in the abdomen, and stepped on him hard from time to time, cursing: "Did I give you face? Dare to ask me for money? I'll give you two tubes, whether you want it or not!"

As if he had been beaten all year round, Emmerich curled up his body at the first moment, protecting his internal organs and head, and silently endured Barry's beating.

After a while, Barry seemed to be tired of fighting. He looked at Emmerich, who was curled up and shivering, with disdain and spat at him: "Get lost. I'm in a good mood today. I won't bother with you."

Emmerich silently bent his body, supported by the wall and walked out of the backyard of the bar step by step.

He knew very well that there was no price increase.
It was simply that Barry was blinded by money and secretly withheld 10 crowns.

The boy's eyes were filled with anger, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.
He didn't dare to offend Barry because he was a formal member of the Skeletons. If he wanted to survive in this area, he had to obey him. Unless he could become a senior member of the Skeletons in the future, then he would have a chance to take revenge!
Emmerich wiped his hands carefully, held up two tubes of nutrient solution respectfully, and handed them to Alvin.

The boy was so nervous that his eyes were full of self-blame. He stammered, "Yes, I'm sorry. They said the price has increased. 30 kronor can only be exchanged for two tubes of nutrition."

Alvin stared at the boy's face, which was covered with bruises, obviously from a beating.

It was not the first time he had experienced something similar. After a little thought, he roughly guessed the reason and sighed silently in his heart.

Damn gangs, they are the same no matter where they are. It would be great if they could all die out!

Emmerich thought he didn't believe it, so he stumbled and said anxiously, "I, I didn't lie to you, it's true."

"I know." Alvin lowered his eyes and pushed the two tubes of nutrients back: "I'll give them to you. You don't have to give them to me."

"Then, how can that be done?" Emmerich seemed to be in a hurry and stuttered easily: "You, you, you have helped us a lot, I, Chris and I can't..."

"Just take it if you're told to. Stop talking nonsense."

Alvin interrupted the boy, and said in a rather tough tone, "I don't lack nutrients, understand?"

"Thank you, thank you!"

Despite his bad attitude, Emmerich knew that the other party was a good person.

"Need not."

Alvin turned his head away coldly.

He has helped with all the help he can, and for the rest he is powerless and can only rely on themselves.

The atmosphere in the alley fell into silence again.

Emmerich curled up in the corner again, glancing at Alvin from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

After his five senses were amplified by psychic energy, he could clearly feel that he was being watched. Alvin was really helpless: "What else do you want?"

"I, I want to ask, your name." Emmerich said in a low voice: "I, don't mean any harm, really."

"Why do you want to know my name?"

Alvin didn't think the boy had any ill intentions.

"Because you saved me and my sister, you are a good person!"

Emmerich mustered up his courage, his eyes full of innocence and simplicity: "When I grow up, I want to repay you for your kindness."

After a long silence, Alvin said slowly: "Alvin, my name is Alvin."

"What's your last name?" Emmerich tilted his head and asked curiously, "Mr. Alvin, don't you have a last name?"

"Surname. Now that you ask me that, it really makes me feel a little unfamiliar."

Alvin rubbed his brows, his thoughts drifting back to the word his mother repeated to him before she died.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Alvin, I didn't mean to do that."

Emmerich waved his hands in panic, guessing that he had touched upon the other person's sorrow: "Actually, many people don't have names, don't they?"

Yes, there are many people in Xiachao who have never had a 'name' since they were born.

"No, I just remembered something."

Alvin smiled and shook his head, his eyes moved slightly, and he murmured: "My name is 'Alvin Valxius'."

Valsius was his father's surname.

Of course, he had never seen his cheap father since the day he was born. It was very likely that he had died in a garbage dump in the lower nest.
