A Magic to Melt A Heart (TinCan)

Chapter 98 - What's Your Excuse?

The other side was silent for a moment that it made the manager somehow more nervous. Did he get the wrong number?

The manager was about to repeat his words again when the other person on the line replied.

"What is it?" he asked. There was a certain hint of irritation on his tone as the manager heard the faint scribbling on the paper from Mr. Phiravich's side.

Gulping nervously, the manager said as he held his phone firmly, "I would like to inquire about three suspicious individuals using a black card under your name."

There was sudden silence on Mr. Phiravich's side as the scribbling stopped.

"Go on," Tin said.

Thinking that he now had his full attention and that it seemed that he did not know the three individuals in question, he started reporting and exaggerating. The manager wanted to see how Mr. Phiravich would handle these three individuals. If they did find out that this group of people was using Mr. Phiravich's black card without the owner's permission, then they would get in serious trouble. If the jewelry store staff and the mall security were able to take these three down and return the black card to Mr. Phiravich, surely the reputation of the mall and the jewelry store would only go up. Perhaps, Mr. Phiravich would also give him a huge reward! Who would not want that?

Still, the manager forgot how these three suspicious individuals even got a hold of a black card from the most powerful individual on Earth. It was a fatal mistake on his part for not thinking.

"These three dare to even hide themselves with fancy clothing to try to blend in with the other guests. As if they could easily get class by doing so! Hmph! I tell you Mr. Phiravich, they even look at our pieces of jewelry with disdain! They even dare to ask the staff to take them to get the most expensive gemstones in our viewing room! They tried hiding their faces with these obnoxious pieces, they look ridiculous! As if we would not find them suspicious! They even wanted to buy 6 red diamonds. I knew they were up to no good." At that point, the manager spilled his frustration and anger towards the three suspicious guests.

Again there was silence for a moment on the other line although this did not bother the manager as he became confident. In fact, he was confident in himself that these three people were not in any kind of relationship with Mr. Phiravich. With that being the case he has decided to send in the security team to take the three immediately with a simple click of a red button underneath his desk.

"What are they doing now?" Tin asked.

With a smile, the manager said, "They're most likely on their knees by now or tackled to the ground. We're handling the situation for y-"

BOOM!

The entire mall suddenly shook as if a great earthquake hit it. The electricity was cut off immediately. All the activities within the mall went to a halt. The people were shocked and afraid of what just occurred.

As the lights went off, the manager who was still on the line did not notice that the person he was talking to was already gone.

"What just happened?" the manager looked around in the dark confused.

Then without any warning, he felt the sudden heavy pressure. It was heavy as if an entire weight of a mountain was put on him. Everyone else in the mall also felt the heavy pressure. Those who were unable to withstand such power fainted.

"What's this?" the manager asked as he started sweating. His fear covered his entire body as he quickly fell to the ground. Still, as someone who has pride in himself, he did not let this stop him from confronting whoever it was that released such tremendous pressure. He was a Tier 3 Rainbow Level Alchemist after all. Everyone respects and fears alchemists especially those in the higher tiers. For someone to do something so disrespectful, that person deserves a beating!
