Chapter 45 : Returning home

After Amon finished everything, he made sure to warn the deputy and the others and ordered them to keep the changes in their branch secret and hide them well without attracting anyone's attention or curiosity

Then he told the deputy that he would return tomorrow and to prepare to go to the meeting normally and that he would come with him

The deputy and the others who heard his words trembled as they imagined what would happen to their gang tomorrow after this monster entered their lair and no matter how much they thought about it, they realized that the meeting tomorrow might pass in any way, but it would never pass normally

' Aaaah ! It seems that the Black Rat Gang is done for '

Many of them sighed sadly, as it is natural that they have not yet adapted to their new reality and still have hope that everything that is happening in front of them is just an illusion and tomorrow they will return to their normal lives and to their tyranny, enjoyment and debauchery

But the sight of Amon's back leaving simply shattered all their hopes and slapped them in the face and confirmed to them once again that this is their new reality

Oblivious to all their thoughts and dreams or just indifferent to them, Amon got into his car, started it and drove it quickly to his house

He continued driving and reviewing his plans and what he would do tomorrow until he arrived after a while

He parked the car and opened the door of his house then entered quietly

He took off his shoes and walked inside

He passed by the living room and took a look and found Maya sitting on the couch watching TV

He smiled and approached her from behind lightly then put his hands on her eyes

" Guess who I am "

Maya was surprised to feel something covering her eyes before she recognized the touch of Amon's warm and comfortable hands and hearing his voice in her ears, she was happy and turned to him and asked him anxiously

" Brother, where were you ? "

" We read your message that you had work and would be late, and we decided to wait for you, but you were very late "

" Sorry, dear, I had a lot of work and couldn't come back before I finished it "

Maya blushed after hearing him call her dear and didn't continue asking him and smiled at him lovingly

" It's okay, the important thing is that you're fine "

Amon removed his hands from her eyes and patted her head gently for a while until she asked him

" Did you have dinner. ? "

" No ! I didn't eat anything Maya I'm very hungry "

She smiled at him and got up from her seat

" Don't worry we left you your share, I'll go heat it up and prepare it for you "

Amon smiled at her caresses and approached her and hugged her gently and kissed her on her forehead

" Thank you Maya, I'm really happy that you want to take care of me "

" I'll wait for you to finish, just let me know if you need any help "

" Don't worry brother I'll finish soon "

After Maya went to the kitchen, Amon sat on the couch and lay down to relax a little

His body might be strong being at the second level and having great control over mana and already refining his body with it

But all the events today had exhausted him and put a huge burden on his mind, especially facing the heavenly punishment and taking care of the women after saving them where he was focusing intensely on all their behaviors to know exactly how he should interact with them so that he could break any barriers they had put around them and be able to get close to them and avoid showing any behavior that might remind them of their traumas and what they had been through

Only with this, they were able to relax around him and get close to him and even play with him and tease him

All of this might seem like simple and normal events but it is not at all

Just how could those who were being brutally exploited and without caring about their situation for who knows how long act and train normally and even joke with Amon even though it had only been a few hours since they met him and he saved them ?

All of this was part of his plan to completely cure them and reshape their psyches and personalities so that the stage they went through would be just a bad memory and an experience from which they learned the danger of the world and its reality so that they would not be deceived again

Taking care of all these details had put a huge burden on him, but he did not care about that and tried with all his might to continue until the end, as he knows the importance of taking care of the mental health of mana users in the early stages, especially for those who will be his people

If he does not take care of their traumas and horrific memories in an ideal way during this period, they will continue to haunt them and negatively affect their personalities, actions and decisions in the future

For example, they will only seek revenge and then feel lost or may be lured and deceived or even develop an exaggerated fear of men with an inability to confront them or approach them

If Amon does not eliminate all these problems now and at this stage and give them the confidence and sense of existence and value that they desperately need and guide them in an ideal way, he will truly feel that he has fallen short towards them
