Third Person POV
Cintra, northern kingdoms.
...
...
Madara ascended in the cloak of night, leaping between the buildings of houses until he neared the orphanage, treading silently on the wall, he kept his body horizontal as he walked to a window.
"Did you hear the boy?"
"Yes, such nonsense."
"He said he saw Madara, that brat who had disappeared, Sister Tunny."
"Stop the nonsense, even if he saw, the brat is lost somewhere in the city, we can't do anything." The woman's voice commented.
"We should go after him, he would be good to be handed over for the next batch of children, I'm sure that man would like the boy and it wouldn't even raise suspicions about his disappearance." Said the voice.
Madara looked into the window and saw the woman who took care of the orphanage and an old man, who was the caretaker, he entered through the window without them noticing, while listening attentively to the conversation.
Sister Tunny looked towards the window swearing she saw a shadow, but everything seemed normal, so she went back to the caretaker.
"Whatever, tomorrow talk to Fred and the others, they can look for the boy around the city and take him to that man." She said and the caretaker nodded.
"So, you want me, this seems even more fun." A voice was heard, startling the two present and when they looked up, they saw Madara upside down above them with a small smile, his eyes glowing scarlet in the darkness.
Before they could react, Madara left the ceiling and with a pirouette kicked both their necks, causing the caretaker and Sister Tunny to fall to opposite sides.
Both fell dazed with immense pain and unable to speak, since Madara hit the neck muscle so they couldn't talk for some time. The sound of them falling was loud, but not compared to a scream of surprise, and the orphanage seemed still in silence.
"HMMMMM...."
"HMMMMMM!"
Both tried to speak more without success, "You will stay like this for a few hours," He spoke looking at the two people scared and in pain. "So, it's been 6 months and the first thing I hear from you is talking about me, how ironic, let me know more about this." He said leaving them even more scared with the child's eyes.
"You deliver children to Fred's gang, but who is this man you were talking about?" He asks and both just looked in silence with eyes shining in fear.
"You don't need to talk, after all, you can't do that now, just answer yes or no with your head, how about that?" Madara spoke, but the caretaker, looking scared, started running towards the door, Madara didn't think twice before drawing a kunai and hitting the man's head, making him fall dead the next moment.
"Well, as you saw Sister Tunny, we can do this the easy way or the hard way, it's up to you." Madara commented, the woman in front of him was really scared now, imagining how that boy had become this monster.
"Don't look at me like a monster, after all, we are the same, you sacrifice boys from here, and I pursue my goals, well, I'm willing to sacrifice you too." Madara spoke without any hesitation, he had killed many in the last months and was getting used to it.
Sister Tunny, still scared, nodded her head.
Madara began to question her about how this scheme worked, despite not being able to speak, Madara got what he wanted, he didn't know much about the mysterious man, and Tunny didn't seem to be lying while questioning.
But the scheme was somewhat like child trafficking in this place, it seems they were delivered to Fred's gang, ironically a man who came out of this orphanage and went into the world of crime forming one of the 5 gangs in the city and they took care of this side. They just acted as intermediaries while the children were delivered to other men, it seemed they were working for a rich person.
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
"Anyway, if you do something like this again, I will come after you, do you hear, Sister Tunny." Madara spoke looking at her with threatening eyes with his Sharingan.
She nodded quickly, scared. Madara left after that, he looked around the room and scanned every inch of the place until he found what he wanted, his eyes could see non-living things behind walls, but he could find small flaws and be quite analytical with his vision, he found what seemed to be a false bottom and quickly opened it, Sister Tunny looked alarmed, but with a look from Madara at her again, she fell silent.
"So this is the money you receive from this scheme, 500 gold coins is a very large amount, while the children live on just 20 gold coins given by the city administration to maintain the orphanage." Madara commented, already knowing these details.
He touched the coins and something happened, the system opened with a call for Madara.
[----System: You have unlocked the first mission, gather 5,000 gold coins and acquire 1% of the system for every thousand coins]
"This..." Madara murmured a bit surprised, but soon felt somewhat indignant, after all, it wasn't the first time he had seen gold. "If I had known about this, I wouldn't have given the money to those victims I saved from the bandit camp, I am really a fool..." He thought, a bit frustrated, but also understanding that he couldn't have known about this before.
Closing the system, he accepted the system's offer in an option where he could take his current gold and the gold began to disappear from the box into his hand, going into the system.
[Mission 1 – Gather 5,000 gold coins – Progress (521/5000) 10%]
Madara sighed and closed the system, he stood up and went to the window, without looking at Sister Tunny who couldn't speak, he jumped out the window, he would continue his hunt tonight and now Fred's gang was his new target.
As Madara disappeared into the darkness of the night, the city of Cintra, with its flickering lights and winding streets, hid untold stories at every corner. One of those stories was that of Fred, a name that resonated with fear in the darkest alleys of that side of the city. Fred was not a true name, but a title, a symbol of power that the young orphan had adopted as he forged his path through crime, even before Madara had arrived at the orphanage, Fred had established great power, Madara heard a lot about him from the older children during his time before the system. Encountering many times members of his gang, some even beating other orphans.
Even in the orphanage, Fred was known to be violent and cunning, leaving Sister Tunny at the time often enraged, but she never did anything tragic because Fred was too dangerous, he learned early that the world did not offer mercy to the weak and proved to be extremely vengeful, even killing a city guard in revenge and escaped the crime without being caught.
He began his domination of this part of the city with his sharp wit and a will of iron, with cruelty against his enemies, he bribed guards, killed competitors and people who challenged him and had created deep roots in the underworld of Cintra.
There were gang wars in the city, no one could dominate the entire city, so it was divided into 5, often the high administration tried to end the gangs, but they never succeeded, so they gather and dominate each part of Cintra in the most peripheral locations.
Madara continued cutting through the dark night of the city while using his eyes to see all the details in the streets below him, there were guards patrolling the place, some drunkards walking the street, and beggars sleeping on the street or trying to rob some establishment, however, Madara had not found anything of interest to him at that moment.
Until he had his first encounter by chance a few streets away, a group of members of Fred's gang collecting their tribute from merchants in their homes during the night. Madara stopped on a nearby rooftop and watched from above. When the group finished their collection and moved away through the labyrinthine streets of Cintra, Madara followed them, silently from above them.
'I look like Batman...' Madara couldn't help thinking that, just needing a dark cape.
In a narrow and distant alley, Madara made his presence known for the first time, kicking one in the neck while striking another, killing the first two.
"Who are you, you little shit!" the remaining three yelled, holding knives and clubs, but when they saw the eyes of the boy in front of them they hesitated, and Madara didn't hesitate to throw 2 kunais at the heads of two of them.
"What?! Don't do anything to me! Please!" The last one screamed in terror.
"Then tell me where Fred's hideout is."
He spoke, and Madara nodded, the man did not lie. "Leave the city and never return, otherwise, I will find you." Madara threatened him, and the man ran away scared through the dark streets to the main entrance.
Returning to the rooftops, he headed for the hideout the man had mentioned, which was in an abandoned temple, there was the headquarters of Fred's gang.
On the way, Madara encountered another group in a corner assaulting a woman, he quickly threw kunais killing all 3 men while the woman still screamed and struggled to get out from under them, she was even more surprised when blood spurted everywhere as they fell dead around her, Madara continued on his way.
"These bastards, they are a cancer in this city. I'm no saint, I might even say I'm a bad person, but these people are like filthy worms." Madara murmured.
During this journey, Madara began to see more gang groups walking through the streets near the temple, he started his slaughter, wanting to finish off all those worms so fast they didn't even feel it as kunais hit their heads, he had left a trail of defeated and dead gang members on every street he passed.
Madara finally arrived at the temple, the place was silent, but as he approached the wall, he could hear the shouting of men inside the place, seeming to be celebrating. With his Sharingan, he saw at least 80 people inside, which must have been prostitutes and the gang itself, and there were a few more people in a cell below them, Madara entered through the window and advanced still silently inside, tonight would be unforgettable for Fred and his gang.
