Chapter 236
A new gang was born in Dondegiri after that day. The gang was called Head Crusher Gang, and they started absorbing the small gangs in Dondegiri.
Why was it called the Head Crusher Gang?
The reason was that their boss carried around a club and enjoyed breaking people’s heads, and the pickpocket, who looked like a weasel, had played a big role in creating the gang’s name.
“From now on, you guys are my subordinates, and I’m your boss. You also have to call me Boss from now on. Do you understand?”
Siegfried had just announced the creation of his gang when the pickpocket raised his hand and said, “Excuse me... Boss?”
“What?”
“You need a gang name.”
“Oh, you’re right... Hmm... What name should we go with?”
“What do you think of... THE WILD DOGS!”
“No.”
“What about the Ax Gang, then?”
“It’s too generic.”
“What about the YOLO Gang?”
“That sounds dumb.”
“...”
“What should I name it...? I’m very bad at naming things...”
Siegfried knew very well that he had an abysmal naming sense.
“Ah, whatever. It’s not that important anyway, so let’s call it the Head Crusher Gang.”
“H-Head Crusher Gang?!”
“Yeah! You guys will now carry around clubs and bash your enemy’s head open. You got that?”
“B-But if we use weapons in a fight...”
“Huh? Aren’t you gangsters? Besides, you guys don’t even have an ounce of loyalty, and you stab others in the back the first chance you get. Don’t you agree?”
“T-That is...”
“Act like a gangster if you’re a gangster. Stop trying to act all righteous. I mean, you guys sell your comrades for coins, sell drugs to kids, prostitute women, steal from the poor, and extort money from people, right?”
“I apologize...” The weasel could not say anything in response.
A gangster was a gangster in the end. They weren’t some righteous bunch who cared about other people. They were ruthless individuals who wouldn’t hesitate to steal from the poor.
“What about our tattoos, Boss?”
“Tattoo?”
“We need to have our gang’s logo tattooed on our bodies to inaugurate our gang.”
“Really? Hmm... Then use that guy,” Siegfried said and pointed at Hamchi.
“A h-hamster...?”
“Why? You don’t like it?”
“N-No, but... everyone in Dondegiri will laugh at us and you, Boss, if we have a hamster tattooed on our bodies...”
“Oh, they’re not going to laugh at me. I’m not going to tattoo anything on me.”
“...”
“Well, you’re free to die if you don’t like it.”
“Ahem...!”
And that was how the Head Crusher Gang was formed in Dondegiri...
The City of Pleasure was turned upside down with the recent gang wars stirred up by the gang members with a hamster tattooed on their left arms.
***
A week later, a group of gangsters with a hamster tattooed on their left arms formed a line and bowed toward Siegfried.
“We greet you, boss!”
“Hello, Boss!”
“Have you eaten yet, Boss?!”
“Boss!”
It was a classic gangster greeting. Ironically, they all had bandages around their heads, and they all got their injuries from Siegfried.
Siegfried had to smack them into submission before they agreed to become his subordinate. It only took a week for Siegfried to become the boss of a gang with five hundred members, and he even obtained a title thanks to his achievement.
[Alert: You have obtained the title Vulgar Walk!]
It was a title that suited a gangster.
[Vulgar Walk]
[A title given to those who have dedicated themselves to being a gangster.]
[Type: Title]
[Rating: Unique]
[Effects: +250 Charisma, +250 Vanity, +30% Critical Chance for stabbing attacks.]
Vanity was something that he could do without, but the increased Charisma and increased Critical Chance for stabbing attacks were quite useful.
Siegfried was quite satisfied with the title’s options.
“Boss.”
“Yeah?”
“I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“That is...”
“...?”
“I think it is time for us to pay our fees.”
“Fees? Who? Me?”
“Yes, Boss.”
“To who? I thought I was the head honcho?”
It had only been two weeks since Siegfried started his career as a gangster, but he was already using all sorts of gangster-like terms.
“No, you are mistaken, Boss.”
“I’m mistaken?”
“Actually, I was not the one ruling the underworld, and it’s still the same. You’re not the top dog in this city, Boss.”
“Then, who?”
“The Thieves Guild.”
“...!”
“The true ruler of this city is the Thieves Guild. Many gangsters come here thinking that they can rule the city, but that’s absolutely not true.”
“You know about the Thieves Guild?”
“I know a little bit about them.”
“Explain.”
Siegfried got a clue about the Thieves Guild from an unexpected person.
***
The same night, Siegfried had to wait for someone with numerous sacks filled with gold in his office.
‘When are they coming?’?he was starting to get bored from waiting.
Siegfried was about to get really bored when something flew past the window and entered the office.
Shwak!
A masked intruder wearing a tight black suit stood in front of Siegfried.
‘Oh? He’s fast.’
Still, Siegfried managed to catch every single movement that the intruder had made to enter his office.
“It seems that you have heard from the previous boss judging by how you’ve prepared the fees in advance.”
The intruder’s voice was husky, and it sounded like they had been smoking since they were born.
“A voice changer? Can you just speak in your normal voice?” Siegfried asked the spandex-wearing intruder.
“N-Normal voice?! This is my normal voice!” Spandex retorted.
“I don’t think so. I can tell that you’re a woman, so that voice does not belong to you.”
“Y-You’re wrong! I’m a man!”
“Then, maybe don’t wear those tights? I mean, anyone can tell you’re a woman based on your figure. It’s quite obvious with those tights, you know?”
Siegfried chuckled hollowly in disbelief.
‘Is it alright for the Thieves Guild to be so stupid?’?
He started to have doubts about the Thieves Guild’s professionalism.
“Where are you looking at, you pervert!” Spandex screamed.
“W-What did you just call me? Did you call me a pervert just now?! Ha!” Siegfried scoffed in disbelief.
“You should’ve just handed the fees over instead of ogling me with those filthy eyes of yours!”
“What the fuck are you talking about—”
“Die! Pervert!”
Spandex rushed at Siegfried.
“No! Calm down! It’s a misunderstanding—heok!”?
Siegfried had to jump to avoid Spandex’s attack after being framed as a pervert.
‘How the hell is she so fast?’?he couldn’t believe her speed. She was so fast that he barely managed to react on time despite his godly reaction time.
Spandex was startled as well. ‘Hmm? He avoided it?’
Spandex’s speed caught Siegfried off guard, and he ended up suffering a scratch wound on his chest.
Plip... Plip...
Blood started dripping from Siegfried’s chest...
“I’m going to pop your teeth out, get ready,” Spandex growled.
She clenched her fists and took on a stance similar to a boxer’s stance.
