Strongest Mystic
Chapter 18 Rose Buckerman (2)

Later they were walking on the maze-like streets. Rose wore his t-shirt while he was in his vest. According to Rose, her home was ten minutes away and she didn't want other people to see her state so they took the usually empty alleys. Ethan safely held a polybag that had the thug's knives.

Yes, Rose was one of his bullies but Ethan knew that she was just acting. She pulled a tough front and used the stronger people to shield herself. Back then, she used to order him a lot, to do this, to buy that.

At worst, she would pull his hair, trying her best to hide her guilt. It was just to show that she was not weak, that she was in the same line with the stronger people. She was also not there when that incident happened.

Her behavior was understandable and typical, late Ethan Chase knew that but he, of course, still didn't like her.

Hunt had planned to take revenge against everyone, to satisfy his stubborn little grandpa. Of course, the degree of punishment depended on what they did. Derek Mia, Damian on the top of the list and Rose on the bottom.

Now no way he would be able to bring himself to do anything with her. Fortunately, the Remnant Will also stayed silent.

Rose, who was silent, suddenly said in a soft voice, "Are you hurt?"

He smiled, "No. Just a small scratch."

She looked down and said, "I am sorry."

Ethan sighed. "Rose, it's alright. Focus on yourself right now."

Rose was about to say something when Ethan suddenly asked, "Can you give me your mobile?"

Though confused, she nodded and gave it to him. Ethan said, "I am sorry but I hope you will not tell anyone that it was me who helped you."

"Ah, okay", she said, her expression still blank.

Ethan stopped walking and turned to face her. She also stopped and looked at him, '50' hovering over her head.

He explained with a serious face, "Listen, I just saved you from those thugs and I don't want any trouble with the police. I'm asking you to keep my identity a secret. Can I trust you to do that?"

Rose took a deep breath and nodded.

"As for borrowing your phone," he smiled, "just wait and watch."

Ethan had also been sensing for any camera in the street, and he found none. This helped him but also made him a bit worried that these streets were not that safe. He had also bought a new ability with special points, Voice Modulation and now he called the police and used it.

Rose was surprised by his change in voice, it was deep and rougher, and kept silent. Ethan informed the police about the thugs, the location and all, and their facial descriptions.

The officer on the other side had recognized the goons but he still found him suspicious. He asked for the proof.

Rose held her hand out. Their gaze met, he could see she wanted to help him in any way she could, so he nodded and passed the phone.

He knew that she was a good actor. She displayed it brilliantly by making her voice timid as if she was just crying.

"Okay, we will quickly go to that place," the officer asked, "Where are you currently?"

"Sir, I am sorry, I don't want to disclose my identity. But I am safe, thanks to this person."

"I can understand. I won't involve you in this as per your wish. Those people already have a few charges on them." The officer was cooperative so Rose thanked him, her voice now sounding slightly calm.

"But please tell me that person's identity. It's important. He may even be an undiscovered Mystic."

Rose stared at Ethan's face and said, "I am sorry."

Hearing the officer sigh, she clarified, "Sir, it's not because I don't want to tell you. He has a mask on his face and has worn a robe."

She saw Ethan mouthing a name, she blinked and told the police officer. "He says he is Shiroyasha."
