***Unkown POV***

'Jeez, this guy can't take a hint, can he?! I am just trying to tell him to spread the word that I can offer them an opportunity to get more powerful, which I assume every human wants to do, as Azura said their Devil side has become more prominent than their Angelic side. Well, beggars can't be choosers when It comes to the black market, it seems." I thought, sighing on the inside.

Laying back on the bed, hands propping up my head, I watched as the man's gears turning in his head began to spin faster, most likely wondering if he should say anything else. Apparently making up his mind that he did not want to start more trouble with me, he bowed slightly and left promptly, closing the door with a solid smack. "Whew, that guy was one tough cookie. I thought that he would keep asking me to repeat myself. Like, how dense can you be to not understand such a simple concept."

Making a big sigh that seemed to lower the temperature of the room by a few degrees, a familiar voice sounded, soothing my temper immediately. "Calm down, master. I am sure that man was just intimidated by your prowess, which I would advise you to keep under control in front of strangers. Unless, of course, they have the intention to harm. Anyways, what is all this about black markets and dungeons? In all my years, I have never heard of someone advertizing a dungeon, especially one that the person claimed to have kept a secret from the entire kingdom.

"Could this be another secret you have hidden from me, hmm?" Azura teased, making me a little annoyed.

"Of course, this is something I would have told you. I mean, I will have to keep you by my side at all times, so there is really nothing I can hide from you. Anyways, that is not the problem at hand. The problem is that I accidentally fell into my own trap!" I shouted, running my hand through my silky hair. It was not up until this point that I realized I had not noticed how my hair felt like. Actually, I have not put a lot of focus on what happened to my body, which any normal person would have. Eh, something for later, I guess

"Master, please calm down, you are going to attract unwanted attention!" Azura's voice sounded from behind me, right before a pair of chilly arms wrapped around my body, two soft mounds pressing against my back soothingly. This, of course, calmed me down. Leaning back and patting Azura's head, much to her surprise, I started pacing back and forth.

"Of course, I had to have said I had a plan in mind, otherwise he would have suspected something. But how could I be so careless to say I could handle this advertisement on my own! I don't even know how one should create such a thing, much less the laws behind putting up something without legal approvement. This is bad, very bad indeed." I said, increasing the pace twice its normal speed.

"You could always go to the King and ask for his approval. Of course, this would require you to put up an offer that would benefit him, as well. As a King, he surely has no shortage of money, but the one thing he does not have is one of the best bargaining chips in the world. Information holding." Azura said with a smirk, showing me once again she is more than just a pretty face.

"Your right, Azura! Man, you are just the best, aren't you?" I said bending over to kiss her. Landing a soft peck on her cheek, I felt her face start to warm up, putting a smile back on my face. Continuing my pacing, at a slower rate, I began thinking of what I could do to make my bargaining chip bigger than his, which is giving me athority to advertise.

"Hmm, if I could utilize your knowledge of the world, that might help secure a higher footing in the information department for this kingdom and less for the rival one. By the lives the King is willing to sacrifice in order to be ahead of his competition, I can only assume he would jump at the chance to be better than them in any way, shape, or form. If all of this goes according to plan, and my assumptions aren't unfounded, than the only problem is getting the station up.

"This might be less of a pain if I could convince the King to lend a few of his soldiers to help out with the creation of it. Though, I would have to keep them in the dark about it, lest they exploit this with their authority. Hmm, I assume that the Market has all those stalls in without any supervision because they must have to pay some sort of tax to the king, which would make sense. And, by the extension of it, I would think their would be no other reason to put more of the same kind of stall, otherwise their would be competition, and that is not helpful to anyone.

"Hypothetically, if I managed to build my stall and had the permission to advertise my dungeon, I would have to put the price high, but not to high. And, maybe if I have some sort of certificate that ays the King himself approved this, I might be able to lure in some nobility who thinks that their money could gain them power, which might work in the kingdom, but definitely not where they would be heading. And, hypothetically, I would need to keep them a paying customer, or at least have them spread the word that the dungeon is a great source of power-leveling." I though out loud, trying to get my though process revving again.
