Chapter 14: 14.To The Queen's Lair

TAP! TAP!TAP!TAP!

The sound was faint yet it created a ripple in the hearts of those who heard.

Hector and Helena stood bowing their heads unable to look properly into the eyes of a young man who sat folding his legs, with hands resting on the armrest and his chin leaning on the hand.

Hector was still dismayed, pondering if this was an illusion or if he was hallucinating as in just two days, the person who behaved like an irresponsible teen unable to control his hormones changed to someone who carried an irrefutable authority with a devilish charm.

Charming yet carrying sinister vibes that make one leg weak.

Hector almost had a heart attack as after waking up, he found himself alone in the hospital with nothing but his smartphone.

He was really scared of what mess this boy might have caused. Fortunately, he had returned home straight, not stirring any trouble.

"Hector, so what did you say to her?"

Hector's heart chilled hearing this.

"I haven't spoken to my Mistress since two days ago."

"As long as I don't create trouble for my family or specifically for that so-called sister, I am free to do as I wish, no?" Leon asked.

"N...Technically yes."Hector was about to refute but changed his words as Leon started pulling out something from his pocket.

"Hmmm!"Leon nodded, putting back his weapon, and looked at Helena who shrunk back in fear.

Can he believe them?

Absolutely fucking not...

He didn't need to kill others as long as they adhered to his will.

He can kill a lot but he makes sure to adhere to the principle so that he doesn't get drowned in darkness but that doesn't mean that he was an angel of justice or hero wearing a cape of justice.

He decides his kill on two condition

First, if the person is evil...

Second, if the person offends him or causes trouble for me.

"Hector and Helena, if you get a call. Tell her, I don't care. It's better if they just expel me from the family, I don't care. If you want to inform her about my whereabouts, I don't give a damn but there are some things which I don't want to leak.."

Leon stared at the two with a sweet gentle smile. He would do important things secretly hiding from them but as for others, he needed the help of someone.

"We understand."Hector and Helana bowed their heads.

"How are your fighting skills?"

"We both are trained but we aren't cultivators," Helena informed.

"Then did you look for the thing I asked for?"

"I have."Hector nodded in relief and gave a brief.

"I see. So, tomorrow is the competition huh?"Leon rubbed his chin.

'I still need to get used to this body.'

No matter if they were corporation descendants, children of wealthy businessmen, or bigwigs, all would gather to have fun in this District.

"Does this place hold a game every day?"Leon asked, looking around.

"Of course," Hector said."This place is full of gamblers who want to get rich overnight and rich second-generation spending money like water."

"Have you come here before?"Helena asked with a frown to which Hector averted his gaze with a guilty look.

"Oh! That's the reason you sorted things so quickly."Leon clapped his hand."Tell me what you know?"

"The maximum range for someone to participate is Martial Disciple level. They are paid more and wagers go high. Boxing matches are divided into divisions into ranks."Hector continued briefing.

The highest division of fighting was the Tiger class. It begins with lightweight, middleweight, and heavyweight followed by the Tiger class.

A martial disciple can directly skip and fight with a Tiger class but for others, they have to go from a lower to higher if they manage to win through the division and survive.

A newcomer no matter his Tier rank had to begin from lightweight and anyone can participate if he thinks he has the guts to do so.

However, special events were held on special occasions like today.

There would be a battle royal with a grand prize of 10 million excluding the wagers. All the participants would be newcomers and would win the grand prize.

The winner might also get a contract and all other benefits like having the protection of the Queen Of the Underground.

Hearing the name, Leon asked the system.

"Are there any protagonists or villains here?"

[None.]

'Hmm! It seems they are busy fucking around on the eve of the new year but knowing those perverts I thought they might be enjoying one of those VIPs."

"Is Sophia a heroine?"

[Yes]

"Good! I can probe her a bit then."

'The heroines of the underground are linked with soldiers or mercenary kings but since his journey begins from abroad, his route hasn't begun here. Meanwhile, the villain might strike her down soon either by force or through some favor.'

Leon, who was observing the bloody matches, suddenly heard the announcement for new boxers to come to the locker room and prepare for the match.

"Young Lord, here is the pass but what is your aim for com..."

Leon snatched it and ordered Hector, cutting his words.

"Hey, along with my money, you can bet yours. Rest assured, we will be rich before the new year."

"And yeah, if you don't do what I say and bet on anyone else then I will bash dozens of bottles on that shithead of yours."

"I think I am not suitable for this place. I should go back and sleep."Helena turned back to leave and heard Leon's warning.

"You too Helena."

"Stay here and watch over this fool."

"....."
