Duke let out a scream. "Please, not my daughter! Anything but her!" he cried to Roan to leave his daughter out of this situation.
Roan ignored Duke's pleas and looked at the photo, "no not this one." 2nd policeman changes the image to a different girl photo. "This is the one," he said, taking the phone from the second policeman's hand.
"Who is she?" Roan asked. 2nd policeman said while shaking, "Duke's youngest daughter." Roan nodded his head.
He then turned to the DGP and said in a deep voice. "DGP, I need your help with two things."
The DGP stopped beating his son and looked up at Roan.
"First, I want you to break the bones of my family members who tried to file a fake case against me." Roan looked at Navya. Navya had a pale, scared look on her face.
The DGP nodded his agreement. Roan looked into DGP's eyes and said with a wide smile on his face, "second, I want Duke's daughter at my house tomorrow. If she does not show up, I will pay a visit to your house."
The DGP frowned upon hearing this. He looked over at Duke, who was now crying uncontrollably.
"Aria, let's go. We don't have time to waste here." Roan turned around and walked out of the police station, leaving the stunned policemen behind.
Aria and the guard followed behind him.
…
There was silence left in the police station. The only sound was Duke crying and begging for DGP's help. "Please, sir, I did it all on Stevie's orders. I'm sorry. We are the policeman, the protector of the civilian. How can we protect them if we even cannot protect our family? You need to help me, otherwise, others will lose their faith in the department." Duke said loudly to everyone.
Paaaaaatt
DGP slapped Duke in the face. He grabbed Duke's collar and looked into his eyes. "Bastard, I am not in the mood to hear your nonsense right now," and slammed Duke to the ground.
DGP rubbed his forehead and turned to the other officers in the room. "What are you all waiting for? Break that bitch's bones." DGP pointed to Navya. She had lost the capability to even say a single word.
"Someone go to the hospital and finish the task." DGP turned to Stevie.
Stevie looked at DGP and shouted, "Dad, do the government and police become so weak that you had to bow down to a small bastard like that?"
Duke jumped on Stevie's leg. "Please, don't involve my daughter in this. I'll do anything, just please save her."
Stevie looked at DGP. "Dad, will you send an innocent girl there?" he asked with a mocking face "Do the government become so weak to where they cannot even protect a girl? Dad, that bastard even tries to threaten you. We cannot take this lying down."
DGP kicked Duke and then looked at his son. "We need to stay low for now."
…
In the car, Aria kept looking up and down at him. Roan asked in irritation, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Aria stared into his eyes and asked, "Sir, who is that girl? Why you called her to the house?"
Roan rubbed his nose and said, "hehe, wait for tomorrow. I promise it will be very fun. You can watch the show if you want."
Aria blushed and looked down. "But sir, you may face an immense problem if this leaks out to the media. Even the government cannot help much then."
"Hahaha, you do not have to worry about all that. You just enjoy the show from the sidelines. The government ain't doing shit for now. By the way, who did you call to my rescue?"
" Mmm, my dad."
"hahaha," Roan laughed. "I have the best secretary, but remember to call the guild for these small matters."
"But sir, this was not a small matter. You are in the top 10 positions of the Abyss guild."
"Whatever, but I don't think we can go out today. Is there anything special event in the upcoming days?"
"A week later, there is a carnival, sir."
"Good," Roan nodded his head.
"Sir, I want to tell you that guild installed a game pod in the little sir room."
"That's good. Remember to buy ice for the celebration."
Aria nodded her head.
Today Roan experienced what it felt like a protagonist who face-slaps a young master and yeah, it was a good feeling. Now he understands why protagonists were so obsessed with this face-slapping thing.
Roan reached the house. Just as he entered the house, Dhruv came running to him. "Brother, are you okay?" and hugged him.
"Yup, what could even happen to me?"
Dhruv looked relieved to see his brother safe.
"So want to go out now?" Roan asked
"Nah, I am not in the mood now."
"Yup, I knew that. Well, let to the carnival next week."
"But brother, I have to go to school that day."
"Aaah right, how could I forget about that, but do you really want to go to school?"
"I do not know," Dhruv said.
"It's not like you could make friends in high school when everyone is 5 years older than you. Do you want to continue to go to school?"
Dhruv looked at him and asked, "I know nothing. What do you suggest, brother?"
Roan thought a little and then said, "Well, you could join a junior school and enjoy the school life?"
"But what to enjoy with all the dumb kids? There is nothing for me to learn there." Dhruv said while making a face.
"Man, you are stupid. If I were as smart as you, then I would just go to school just to enjoy the company of a bunch of girls. You are really a nerd to not think about that. Who even goes to school to learn, anyway?"
Dhruv stared at him. "Idiot. That's why you are still single."
"Smartass, you are talking as if you have a bunch of girls lining behind you."
"Aaah, is there any other option?"
