"You will make my problems disappear, how will you do that?" Luke could already guess the answer to his question, but he wanted to hear it from the person himself.
"Don't worry about it."
"Then how much do I need to pay for the job?"
"Hmm, let's see... How about every single cent you have that you took from others through extortion."
"What?!"
"You want to change your life right? Then you don't need that kind of money. So give it all to instead. I'm already stained to the point that no matter what I do, I can never be redeed, so I'll be taking all the sins you have accumulated as part of the paynt. So will you hire ?"
'The things he's saying would've sounded cringy if soone else was saying them, but I guess it's because he's the one saying them they kinda sound a bit cool now.' Luke no longer hesitated and answered.
"I will hire you!"
"Then the deal has been made. Now onto the next step, I want you to get a mask, so dark clothes, and so gloves? After that call that friend of yours that knows about the local gangs, and tell him to et you here tomorrow. Also, tell everything you know about the guys who you called to help you. Tell every single little thing you know, tell every trivial information you heard from them."
Hearing Loki's requests, Luke nodded his head. He wasn't sure why he was believing soone he just t, but this was better than dying.
While Luke was running outside to get the things Loki asked for, Loki took out his phone and sent Alisa a text ssage. He told her that he had so business to attend to so he'll be coming ho late. Once he sent the ssage, Loki sighed.
'I guess it's ti to get to work.'
...
In a dimly lit room, a man was forcibly tied to a chair, this was one of the gang mbers Loki beat up. Both of his hands and legs were tightly bound.
'What the f*ck just happened. I was with the guys smoking while waiting for the guy that kid wanted to beat up. I went to the side to take a pee and then the next thing I rember was soone getting behind and got in a sleeper hold. Who attacked, was it soone from a rival gang?'
While the man started speculating, a person entered the room. The person who entered was wearing a white mask, was wearing a black jacket, black boots, and even had black gloves. Except for the white mask, everything he wore was pure black, the man in the mask looked extrely eerie. Not only that but for so reason even though the gang mber was looking at the man with a mask, even though he was standing there right in front of him, it felt like he wasn't there at all. This person wearing a white mask was none other than Loki.
"So you're finally awake."
"Who the f*ck are you?! Where the f*ck am I?!"
"You're not the one who will be asking the questions here, I'm the one who's going to be doing that. So Mr. Gang mber let's play a little ga. It's a very simple ga, it's called tell everything about your gang and you get to leave this place."
"Huh? Are you bat sh*t insane?! Why would I tell you anything?! Who are you, which gang do you belong to? If you- AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" The gang mber suddenly scread as sothing had stabbed into his fingertips.
"I told you already, you don't get to ask questions. Also, I haven't finished explaining the rules of the ga so be quiet. Now, where was I?... Oh right, at this mont aside from you I captured all your companions and they're also in this building in different rooms. Each one of them will be playing the sa ga as you, the first one to speak will be given the chance to leave this place. As for the others that are too slow, well their fates, I will leave that to your imagination."
"The f*ck are you saying, you crazy bastard! No one would dare betray the group!? Are you so kind of wannabe vigilante?! Do you think these sh*t ass intimidation tactics are going to work on , or any of us?!"
"I already told you the rules, I'll co back later." Loki left the room leaving the screaming gang mber alone.
...
After half an hour, Loki returned to the room.
"So are you willing to talk now?" Seeing Loki ask this question made the man smirk.
"Hmph, since you're asking such a stupid thing, that would an no one was willing to talk. See that you crazy piece of sh*t, none of them is going to betray the group, including ."
Loki shrugged his shoulders as he spoke.
"Yeah, none of you are willing to talk, which is why I decided to add one more rule into the ga. Every ti I co back and you don't talk I will cut off one of your fingers." Loki then pulled out a knife and showed it to the gang mber.
"What the heck you sick f*ck! How can you change the rules like that?!"
"I'm the one in charge, so I can change the rules to whatever I want them to be. So I hope the next ti I co back you have sothing useful to say." After saying his piece Loki left the room.
...
Being left behind the gang mber started sweating a lot, and he tried his hardest to keep calm. 'It's alright, he won't kill us, as long as we don't say anything. It's just a finger, I just need to endure it.'
After thinking things through the gang mber was able to calm down a bit. An hour had passed, but Loki hasn't returned.
'Did sothing happen to him?' The gang mber then started to get worried. After another half hour passed, Loki returned to the room and he had his knife out which had blood on it.
"You actually took their fingers?! Fine, it's just a finger I won't talk as well."
"Huh? Oh, sorry, you seem to be misunderstanding sothing here, Noel. Sobody already talked and told everything he knew. By the way, your buddy Nestor was pretty talkative."
"Sh*t! You f*cking traitor, NESTOR!"
"The ga has ended so, it's ti for us to say goodbye." Loki slowly approached Noel with a knife at hand, as Loki was getting near Noel suddenly shouted.
"WAIT! I have information that even Nestor doesn't know of. If you promise to let leave this place, I'll tell you."
"Oh, if what you're saying is true, then I sure I'll promise to let you leave this place if you tell it to ."
"Alright, it's a deal."
Noel started telling Loki every single thing he knew about the gang from its mbers to their boss's secret hiding spot.
"There I told you everything I know."
"Alright, a promise is a promise." Loki untied Noel, who imdiately started running towards the door. The mont he got out of the room, he saw the dead bodies of his companions including Nestor. It was at that mont he heard a gunshot from behind. He felt an intense pain coming from his back. As his consciousness was fading he heard Loki's voice.
"I didn't lie, you were able to leave the room, right? Still these things called guns sure are easy to use but are too loud, not really my kind of weapon."
...
A few hours before Loki started to interrogate the gang mbers, he already asked Luke everything he knew about the gang mbers. Luke really didn't know much, all he knew were the nas of the gang mbers. He was expecting Loki to be disappointed, but instead, Loki said.
"That's all I need."
Loki then proceeded to scare each of the gang mbers which he placed in separate rooms. He created a ga that only allowed one winner, and then he gave them ti to think before returning to add a punishnt system. Once the gang mbers were rattled, Loki used his knowledge of their nas to trick them into telling them what they knew. It was a simple trick, but all of them fell for it, due to the atmosphere of the location and Loki himself.
The blood from the knife at first was Loki's own blood. He then tricked the first gang mber into telling him all that he knew afterward Loki killed the gang mber using one of the weapons he confiscated from them.
Loki repeated this process to all the gang mbers and killed them using the different weapons of the other mbers. He did this to make it look like they all died due to infighting.
He understood a tiny bit about this world's police, based on so of the mystery novels he read in his room. The way they investigated in this world was different from his old world, they use things like looking at one's fingerprints and DNA to trace soone.
Which was why he made sure that nothing in here could be traced back to him. Every weapon he used was from the gang mbers, and he made sure that no one had witnessed him carrying their bodies. He even used gloves as he moved their bodies.
'Well even if they sohow trace sothing back to , I have an alibi.' Before coming to this abandoned building, Loki rented a room in sothing called a manga cafe which was a kiloter away. He escaped that room without anyone seeing him, the people nor the surveillance caras had caught sight of him leaving. So technically to everyone else, Loki had never left his room.
'Now that I have information on this gang, it's ti to eliminate them... That's what I would want to say, but I used too much mana today, and my body is already aching all over, so I need to rest for a bit. I better get back to the manga cafe, leave and then head ho.'
Loki yawned as he left the room where the dead bodies of the gang mbers lay.
