Ming Ge raised her hand, smiled, and greeted him, showing none of her previous coldness.

"Are you chasing this Pallum?"

Ming Ge asked.

"Yes, I just saw him snatch an old lady's wallet."

Aki angrily clenched his fist and said, "That's outrageous! How could he do that?!"

That's really going too far.

Ming Ge nodded slightly.

"He has hands and feet, why does he have to rob an old man's belongings?"

Aki looked at the Pallum with a sense of disappointment, and seeing Pallum they didn't respond at all, Aki became even angrier.

The little girl with her cheeks puffed out is simply adorable.

P. S.: This book is a harem story, that much will remain true, but I will try to build up the emotional foundation before concluding the story; if this book's definition doesn't suit everyone's taste, the author can only thank you for reading this far.

There has indeed been a significant increase in self-created magic, thanks for the reminder; I will try to reduce related content in the future and increase storylines related to encounters, bonds, and peaches.

Thanks

Chapter Fifty-Six: Flirting Back

What should we do after we catch this guy?

Ming Ge released the Mage Hand, letting the Pallum land on the ground.

Despite the lifting of the oppression, the Pallum was still panting heavily, lying on the ground with a look of fear on his face.

"Let's take him back first and hand him over to the guild. He'll probably be locked up for a couple of days for some 'education'."

Aki explained, "Our Ganesha Familia has some cooperation with the guild and helps maintain order in Orario. It's a very simple matter."

Only two days?

In his country, it would take at least three years, but Ming Ge also knew that the other world had its own unique circumstances.

In some places, it wouldn't be unreasonable for someone to be beaten to death for robbing an elderly person. In places like Orario, there aren't many places to manage these petty thefts; they can only educate the perpetrators and let them go.

If a law enforcement officer is more ruthless, they might secretly carry out a vigilante punishment to teach someone a lesson, and such actions would likely be turned a blind eye.

Rules and order exist, but they are not clearly defined.

Many of these are only limitations to a 'certain degree,' with strength being paramount, which stems from the broader environmental issues.

Even Orario, the center of the world, is far from perfect in this regard.

"By the way, who is this older sister...?"

Aki looked at Meitellia with curiosity.

Their close relationship suggests it's not a simple matter.

"This is my lover, Meitellia."

Ming Ge smiled and said, "This child is named Aki Farlma. I met him when I was experimenting with magic in the Dungeon. He's a member of the Ganesha Familia."

"Hello, Aki."

Meitellia smiled slightly and gently extended her hand, saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

For most people, this would just be a social expression, but when Aki looked at Meitellia, he felt that she was genuinely happy to know him.

I feel... she and this older sister will definitely get along.

"Hello, big sister Meitellia."

Aki grasped Meitellia's hand, a bright smile spreading across his face, and said, "So you two are lovers. You look very well-matched."

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."

Meitellia said with a smile, "Compared to Ming Ge, I'm still far behind."

The two chatted for a few minutes when a figure approached from afar.

"Aki."

What came into view was a young girl, whose face was more sharp and capable than Aki's; she was Aki's older sister, Shakti.

She was holding snacks in her hand and looked somewhat surprised when she saw Ming Ge.

"Haven't seen you for a long time."

Ming Ge smiled and said, "Are you sisters out having fun too?"

"Yes, I saw him when my sister was shopping."

Aki turned his gaze to the Pallum and looked apologetically at Shakti, saying, "I'm sorry, I couldn't tell my sister."

"It's alright, what exactly is the situation?"

Shakti inquired.

After Aki and Shakti explained the situation, several people dressed in Ganesha's uniforms came over and took the Pallum boy away.

Even now, the Pallum boy was still in a daze, looking completely lost.

"I really hope this never happens again."

Aki sighed.

However, this is impossible.

Even though Orario is currently at the peak of Zeus and Hera's power, and the Dark Faction is being suppressed to the point of exhaustion, there are still many dark corners.

Fortunately, Orario is currently at its strongest, with the rule of the three major powers —the Zeus Familia, the Hera Familia, and the Guilds—remaining unshaken for nearly a thousand years.

Even in modern times, there are many dark sides, let alone in this world where strength reigns supreme.

Given the current environment, it's like that petty Pallum from earlier, who actually drew his knife after being stopped by Ming Ge.

This is not uncommon, and it shows that human life is actually not that important in this world.
