Chapter 352 The Story of the Tramp
Scar was stunned, and then he turned to look at the others.
“Hey, it doesn’t matter to tell you if you want to know it,” Scar sighed. “How should I put it? He saved
my life.”
Scar took a breath, and he seemed to be immersed in memories. He bared his teeth and said, “It has
been a long time.
“At that time, I was a teenager. I was not bald and I was quite handsome. Many beautiful women
pursued me. I was wondering about which one to choose,” Scar said, and his eyes were full of
sadness.
After that, he looked at Theo and said, “At that time, I can be more handsome than this guy.”
Theo rolled his eyes and scolded, “Scar, we want to know the story of the tramp with two blades, not
your story.”
Scar coughed and said, “When I mention the past, I can’t help but miss that time.
“In short, I was saved by my boss. He was on a mission, and I joined Night Watch. After two years, I
entered my boss’ team. At that time, I was just in my early twenties…” When Scar said this, Gerald and
the other two coughed.
“As the top Watchmen, you must know about Night Watch well. We are divided into several branches. I
used to belong to American Night Watch. Major branches would occasionally communicate with each
other, and teams with their members under the age of 25 would participate,” said Scar.
Gerald’s heart skipped a beat. They once participated in a competition, and at that time, they won an
overwhelming victory as Team 11762.
However, at that time, Gerald had become famous.
Scar continued, “Then, we went to Europe together. That competition was held by the person who is
now ranked 3rd on the Sun List, Perrin Dempsey. Then, my boss discovered something.”
“Hmm?” Gerald looked at him.
“We will control ourselves and don’t let anyone die in the competition. But that time, many accidents
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthappened, so, many participants died. In the end, only three people were alive. I, the captain, and the
captain’s wife.” Scar let out a breath, and his eyes began to redden. “Including the members of our
team, many people died.
“And we accidentally discovered that the person behind this matter was Perrin, the organizer. He
was old at that time. To prolong his life, he got a secret formula. He absorbed young people’s blood
with instruments to live longer.” Scar exhaled.
“Our captain reported it, but the management didn’t believe it.” Scar sighed. “So my captain. decided to
show his determination and to avenge his teammates with death. The captain was a genius, and at a
young age, he became one of the top ten Watchmen. He didn’t hesitate to kill his way into Perrin’s
residence with a dagger and was captured by Perrin.
“Later, Blaine took action to protect him, but the captain’s wife was killed by Perrin in front of him, and
that was why we were expelled,” Scar sighed.
In the eyes of Gerald and the others was a look of anger.
Perrin crossed the bottom line so much that it was beyond their imagination.
However, Perrin was prominent. He was the winner of the first Medal of Star Glory, and it made him
significant not only in European Night Watch but also the entire Night Watch.
No one believed that he would do such a thing. After all, to some extent, he was once a hero of Night
Watch.
In Europe, many Watchmen had a fanatical belief in Perrin, just like how the people here in American
Night Watch respected Blaine.
“Therefore, after coming here, our boss’ mind broke. He felt Perrin and someone at the super level’s
power. He also tried to make it to a Super. Then, he will leave this city and go to Perrin for revenge, but
he just can’t be a Super,” Scar sighed. “Then, he was discouraged. Every day, he drank, and he lived
until now because I delivered food to him every day.”
Gerald understood that person’s despair.
It was just like the current him. Under the condition that his Vital Energy had not recovered, if Perrin’s
people came here, he had to be humble.
Gerald exhaled and said, “Bring me to him. I want to talk to him.”
Scar shook his head and said, “Save it. He doesn’t communicate with anyone, including me. Yesterday,
when I went to find him, he didn’t say a word. He heard that I might die, and that was why he came with
the blades.”
“Let’s go and check it out,” Gerald said.
Scar saw Gerald insist and nodded. “Okay. I happen to want to visit him. Do you have money? Buy him
some wine to make him in a good mood, and maybe, he is willing to talk to you.”
“No.” Gerald spread his hands.
Their money had been given to other people, and they didn’t have a single penny on them.
Scar cursed, “Fuck you.”
Then, he took out crumpled notes, bought two bottles of wine, and said with heartache, “Fuck, I can
just lick the lid to grab a drop of the wine. Now, I control a street, but I can’t collect protection fees and
have to pay with my money.”
Scar picked up the wine, and the four walked toward the Southern District.
In the slums of the Southern District, where almost no one lived, the lights were quite dim. The four
arrived in front of a small building.
In the distance, Gerald saw the tramp. His hair was disheveled as he sat there. In front of him, the two
blades were stabbed into the ground, and there were a lot of wine bottles in front of him. The tramp
was holding a bottle of wine and drinking there.
No one could imagine that such a person was once a top Watchman. He used to be one of the top
ten and was so close to the super level.
However, it was too difficult to cross the gap.
The tramp saw the four coming over. He looked up, ignored them, and then drank the wine.
After approaching, the four smelled a stench coming from the house. Obviously, it hadn’t been
cleaned for a long time.
Scar sighed, put the wine on the ground, and said, “Boss, you should clean your house.”
The tramp ignored him. Scar frowned, and then said to Gerald, “I’ll leave you alone then, I have to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgo in and clean the room up for him.”
After that, Scar ignored his injuries and walked into the room.
Scar was a loyal person and never betrayed his boss.
For the people who just joined the group, the tramp still chose to help even if he knew that he
could die.
Seeing a Top rush at Theo, the tramp didn’t care about the gap between them and wanted to
protect Theo.
Gerald had a good impression of the guy after seeing this. Moreover, he was once a Watchman.
After Scar left, Gerald walked toward the tramp.
“Get lost.”
The tramp said flatly.
He had an unquestionable tone.
Theo raised his eyebrows and said, “Hey.”
Gerald motioned for him to not speak. He looked at the tramp and said, “Just now, Scar told me about
your past, so I want to talk to you.”
The tramp drank a mouthful of wine, and the wine stained his beard which had not been shaved for a
long time. He looked at the three and said, “I know you are Watchmen. I don’t have a good impression
of Perrin and you all. If you come any closer, I will kill you.”
Scar didn’t notice it, but this tramp, as one of the top ten Watchmen, saw through Theo and
Kristen’s tricks.
Gerald sighed. At that time, the American Night Watch abandoned him and did not stand by his side.
His comrade-in-arms and wife died, and he was exiled to Sin City. The Watchmen did not avenge him
nor did they protect him. He became a sacrifice for the stability of Night Watch.
Gerald let out a sigh and said, “You don’t have to be like this. Perrin is also my enemy. I will kill him.”
The tramp paused in picking up wine bottles, and then slowly put them down. His eyes revealed a
glimmer of hope.
“Just you?”
“Just me.”
“With what can you do that?”
“I’m the former American Watchman No. 0.”
