Seeing the long description of the 2nd Quest, Leo was surprised by the contents of the two quests.
'Does this mean I have to turn myself into a bad guy? I'm not against it but it's a bit uncomfortable to turn into one just for power.' Shaking his head from these thoughts, Leo read the second given quest and kept nodding his head as his eyes scanned the texts. His mind is already thinking of which business has its advantage and disadvantage to his current position.
First is the Slavery.
As soon as Leo read this, he immediately blocked it out. He'd rather kill someone than turn them into slaves.
Leo can't express his feelings on the matter but it just leaves a very bad taste in his mouth.
The second one is the Drugs and Substances.
When Leo first read this, he already knew this would be one of his choices. Not only it is easy to manufacture, but because the world in his mind would be suitable for this kind of drugs. After all, 'that' world probably doesn't contain anything illegal like drugs and some shit, so Leo's first choice fell on this.
The third one is the Illegal Smugglings.
Leo hesitated a bit when it comes to this as it is probably the easiest one out of the five businesses. After all, he only needs to convince businesses to use him to transport their goods, albeit illegal but at a cheap price.
The only problem with this is Leo lacked people. Seeing as he can get two trucks and one container shop, Leo knew he needed large people for this kind of operation.
So Leo decided to leave this one out for now until he reads the rest of the choices.
Fourth is the gambling, which Leo immediately chose. Gambling is easy, very easy. All he had to do was just to find a good spot or if possible, introduce the business of Gambling, which should be legal if he keeps his card rights.
Once that's done, all that's left is to let people act on their nature.
Get addicted!
Once you start gambling, you only have two choices.
Either lose or lose more.
And next to losing is another two choices.
Either leave or stay.
Normally, it is 90% harder to leave than to stay. So Leo knows that once everything is settled by creating his gambling den, he could just relax and let nature take its course.
Now that Leo has chosen two, he proceeded to read the last one, which is Weapon Manufacturing and distribution.
Leo was tempted to take this business as he wanted to introduce the concept of hot weapons in 'that' world but remembering that the world has not yet entered the era of steam engines or other technological revolutions, Leo decided not to choose this. For now.
'I guess Drugs, Smugglings and the Gambling would be my first ever illegal business. God, I didn't even know how to handle businesses and here I am, building illegal ones, hopefully Kingpin's template would help me on this one.' After casting a silent prayer in his mind, Leo submitted his choices to Genesis.
[Congratulations! You have received the following....
- 15% of Kingpin Template
- 10,000 Reputation Points
- Permanent Bridge Ticket
- Cocaine for Dummies Manual
- 2x Trucks and 1 small Container ship
- 10 boxes containing 500 Gambling chips, Gambling 101 book]
Just as Leo finished reading his rewards, his strength suddenly increased by a few. Not much but noticeable.
Next was the new items in his inventory, one reward that stood out the most was the Permanent Bridge Ticket, which Leo hasn't read yet.
[Permanent Bridge Ticket - A Ticket that builds a permanent bridge between your main world and your chosen world, allowing you to walk in and out between two worlds with nothing but a simple portal at your command. P.S: Time doesn't stop in your main world whenever you step foot in the chosen world.]
'How fucking convenient, just when I was thinking of saving up Reputation Points, this reward came just in time. Genesis, could it be that you can see the future?' Leo made a fake surprised expression, which Genesis definitely didn't seem to be amused by it.
[No. Just accept it, Leo.]
'Fine. How do I use it. Can I choose any world I want?' Skipping the matter, Leo changed the subject by asking for guidance.
[You can't choose a world that you haven't visited yet. And to use it, simply think of the world you want to connect with before tearing it in half. Which world are you even planning to establish your Underground Empire?]
Asked by the question, Leo smirked to himself and answered.
'Of course, what else but the Frozen world. No doubt my empire will flourish more in that world than this world. I'd rather take the risk in a world full of familiar humans than a world full of animals. I mean, what if animals are immune to addiction? Or what if the businesses in this world wouldn't take kindly of an underground Empire? There's too many risks in here and I'd rather play with fellow human whom I spent an entire life with and as.' Feeling like an intelligent life form, if Leo were to wear glasses, he might subconsciously push its rim.
[That's the smartest thing I've ever heard from you. *Clap* *Clap*]
'Did you just....clap?'
[.....]
'I'll just pretend I never heard it.'
[Good choice.]
Shaking his head, just when Leo was about to take out the ticket so he could finally establish the connection to the Frozen world, his sharp senses and Life Sensor skill picked up a figure walking towards his room.
One of the advantages that he noticed in his life sensor skill, was the ability to recognize someone without seeing them as long as he has sensed the once.
It's like every life has their own unique aura that his Life Sensor skill was able to pick up and differentiate from other beings.
So at this moment, Leo could already tell it is Ann who is already at his doorstep.
*Knock!* x2
Knocking two times on the door, Leo shouted, at the same time, pulling his Panther Habit suit back to its usual necklace style.
"Come in."
"My Lord, my father wants you to spend dinner with us." Poking her head in after making a small gap of the door, Ann looked at Leo with an expression that Leo reads as 'Please say Yes'.
"Sure, I'm quite hungry. What's for dinner?" Knowing it would be rude to refuse, Leo agreed with a nod of his head.
"It's our village's favourite and most delicious cuisine!"
***
'What is this?' Staring down at the bowl in front of him, Leo's cheeks twitched several times.
What he was expecting to be a delicious food full of meat and such, all he was met with was a bunch of grass in a soup.
"Please eat, I made sure to make it with the best of my abilities!" Sitting in front of him, Kha'an was nervously rubbing his hands together, looking at Leo with expectations on his face.
'Fuck, don't give me that look old man!'
As for what happened next, the dinner ended with Leo asking where the bathroom is, which unfortunately didn't exist in the village and Leo had to spent 5 minutes to find a good spot outside the village borders.
***
Back in his room, as soon as the moon reaches its peak, Leo's entire body is suddenly rejuvenated, his muscles suddenly contracting and becoming more robust, meanwhile Leo himself could feel his strength doubling.
'This is a perfect time!' Taking out the Permanent Bridge Ticket, Leo's mind wandered towards the world of Frozen before tearing the ticket in half.
*Ripping sound!*
The moment the last inch that kept the ticket together was separated, the ticket disintegrated into golden motes of light which floated for a few seconds before converging together, forming what Leo assumes to be a golden portal.
*Fwooosh!*
