Hero or Villain, Both Chapter 143: Underground deal

"Give a few beers over here."

"Co and get them yourself! This isn’t that kind of bar!"

"Let do it." One of the mbers of our group walked over to claim the beers that had been tossed on the bar.

While this was happening, I was watching the scene around .

This bar wasn’t the cleanest bar or the most secure bar.

With the kind of clientele that were sitting here, it made it quite obvious what kind of bar this was. This certainly wasn’t the kind of bar that one would think about doing any kind of business in.

But the business that I was here for was the kind of business that couldn’t be done in the light of day.

It was the kind of business that could only be done in the underbelly like this bar.

After coming over with the beers, I turned to one of the people that was sitting at the table next to us. At the sa ti, that person seed to be looking at as if they were waiting for so kind of signal.

There was a long mont of silence that hung in the air before that person finally said, "You’re Eagle?"

"You’re Falcon?" I asked right back.

He didn’t answer in the end as he waved for his n to stand up before he ca over to our table and sat down.

There was no one that seed to pay any attention to what we were doing as this was a place where this kind of thing was normal. After all, this bar was a bar where these kinds of deals were done in the first place.

After sitting down, he looked at and asked, "So what is it that you’re looking for?"

I didn’t say anything as I looked at him, but eventually I said, "Didn’t you already hear what I wanted? I already told the contact what I wanted."

He just said, "The contact doesn’t tell us anything, you have to tell us exactly what you want."

It seed like this was so kind of power move that he was playing by making do this, but I just calmly said, "I’ve heard that you have goods that no one else has. I was hoping to get my hands on so of those goods."

"So it’s the underground auction? But where’s your sincerity?" He said while reaching his hand out.

I had already been expecting sothing like this, but I still said, "The contact already took my sincerity."

With a smile, the man said, "He gets his cut and I get my cut."

With the way that he looked at , it was clear that he was treating as so kind of newbie that was just entering this world for the first ti.

But it wasn’t as if this was a bad thing for .

In fact, this was exactly what I wanted him to think.

"Are you sure that you want to gouge a repeat custor like this? I’m sure that I’ll be able to bring more business to you."

"When you do, that’s when you get treated differently. Until then, you get to pay what we call a tuition fee." The man said without any hesitation.

At this point, it was clear that he was seeing as so kind of sucker.

I tried saying a few more things, but it didn’t seem like it worked as he was just waiting for to pay.

Eventually, it even seed like he was getting tired of with the way that he looked like he wanted to leave.

So in the end, I had no choice but to pay him.

Though in reality, it wasn’t as if this small amount would hurt to pay.

After receiving his money, the man stood up and waved his hand for us to follow him.

He didn’t even bother talking to us anymore as he led us out of the bar.

It was clear that he was tired of talking with with the way that he was acting.

I didn’t say anything either as I brought my people to follow behind him.

But after we turned into an alley...

"Do you really think that you would be able to talk this much in this world? You should know your place." The man suddenly turned around with a dagger in his hand.

The rest of his n also pulled out their weapons and surrounded our group.

At the sa ti, there were so people that appeared at the ends of the alley.

It seed that they had planned this for a long ti with how they suddenly appeared.

I narrowed my eyes to look at him before saying, "Do you really want to do this? It would be easier if you just led us to the underground auction."

"Ha, ha, ha, I just don’t want to. What are you going to do?" The man said while laughing disdainfully.

I didn’t care that he laughed with disdain as I just shook my head and said, "It seems like I’ve played my role too well."

"Young master, please let handle this. I want to stretch my old bones." The driver was the one that ca forward with a dagger in hand.

This ti, I didn’t stop him as I waved my hand to let him go free.

With a smile on his lips, the driver stepped towards our attackers.

They all looked at us with smiles on their faces as if they didn’t believe that he would be able to do anything all alone.

But in the end, all of them were lying on the ground with cuts all over them. There were even so that had stopped breathing because of their wounds.

"Who are you?" The man said in a voice that no longer had any disdain in it. Instead, there was only fear in his voice as he looked at us.

I just simply said, "You’ll bring us to the underground auction now, right?"
