In the morning people have begun crowding the street to work.
Coming out from the brothel, my body feels refreshed now let's explore this city. It looks like my second body has no problem performing. For the sake of science, I need to sacrifice my body. Joke aside, what should I do now? Most of the shops are still closed.
Let's find somewhere to eat. While walking I found a decent restaurant. Entering inside I found a place near a window and ordered some coffee and breakfast.
After I finish eating, I begin thinking about what I am going to do in the city. Should I join any group or create chaos in the city? The people that control the city will not be happy.
The Blood Shield mercenary has become a well-known mercenary. But I already ordered them not to take any mission involving intergalactic war. They can’t win against a military spaceship fleet.
The door of the restaurant opens and a group of people enter to have their breakfast.
One of the men yawned and spoke. “I am tired.”
“Because you have been drinking a lot.”
“Have you heard about the conflict between the mafia groups?”
“I have heard about it. Many people died from hoary virus including their boss. They right now want to elect a new leader.”
“You are right, the problem right now is the rival mafia group. That has been suppressed for a long time and has taken action by causing conflict between the candidates.”
“I am sure the candidate can see that.”
“For power and money, even families can kill each other.”
“That means there will be change in Joy city.”
“I think the only mafia group that will maintain their power is the Lucchese family.”
“Why, I heard their boss and underboss also die from the virus?”
“Because the twins from the Lucchese family have full control over the capo.”
“Now I remember the previous Lucchese boss had a twin grandson and granddaughter.”
In the mafia hierarchy the highest rank is the Boss. Below the boss is the underboss, next is capo and the lowest rank is the soldier.
I was listening in on their conversation. The majority of the information is the same as what the woman in the brothel told me. I am the one who is responsible for their death. Because I'm testing the early version of the hoary virus vaccine on them. Many people have been saved as a result of their selfless sacrifice. While sipping my coffee, I smile.
I should control the mafia group in the dark. If they refuse to obey me, I can create a new criminal group.
Even if people know my identity, people will not relate me to my main body. Here I am Morte not Levi or Sylas. Because of the long distance I can only sense the direction of my main body. And I can’t share my memories instantly. The only thing I can do is to send my main body a message later about the situation here.
Leaving the restaurant, I see a group of children wandering around trying to pickpocket. I am not worried because all my stuff is inside spatial storage. With my speed it is almost impossible for them to steal something for me.
How about I use the children to gather information. The issue is that someone must be controlling this group of children. That will extort the children who make a living by begging and stealing.
It’s still early for them to show up. I walk past the group of kids and without them noticing. Attach one of the tracking devices on one of the kids. Leaving them I walk around the city and every time I see a suspicious group of children. I used my telekinesis to attach the tracking device on them.
While looking around I see a firearm shop that is already open.
“Ding!” The door makes a sound when someone opens the door.
Entering inside I see the common, and strange weapon from other galaxies.
The young saleswoman has just finished sweeping the floor. After hearing the door sound she put away the broom and went to the customer. She sees a man wearing a hoodie and black mouth mask.
“Hello, may I help you?” The saleswoman spoke politely. With this planet's tropical weather. It’s unusual to see people wearing a hoodie in the morning. Unless that person is trying to hide his or her identity. But it’s better to keep her mouth shut. Joy city is a city of outlaw.
“What is the best firearm that you have in this shop?”
Hearing that the saleswoman spoke enthusiastically. “Please follow me.” This might be a big customer. Suddenly she remembered something. “I am sorry can you wait a minute; to enter the room I need to see the owner.”
I nodded my head. The saleswoman quickly entered one of the rooms. After a while the woman brings a skinny man that looks sleepy. The skinny man doesn’t say anything and goes to one of the metal doors and scans his retina and palm. When the door opens the skinny man goes back to his room to sleep.
"Cough, sorry about that, the owner is a little strange. Before we enter, I must warn you not to do anything unusual inside."
“Do you always bring someone there?”
“Most people in this city will buy the firearm on display. Only the outsider with money will ask about the best firearm.”
“What happens if people try to rob the shop?”
“They will die.” The saleswoman smiled and guided me to enter the room.
This place must have a secret trap. Inside there are a variety of firearms on display.
The saleswoman begins introducing the firearms. “Here we have plasma firearms, laser rifles, chemical rifles and rail guns. Anything that you need, but we don’t sell explosives because of the rule set by the Joy city.”
“Where do you get the advanced weapon?”
“That is a trade secret.”
After looking around I decided to buy several advanced firearms and numerous normal firearms. Most of the firearms that I have gathered or loot have been taken by the Blood shield mercenary. To buy firearms in the city of Sruton is hard because of the law banning the trade of firearms inside the city.

The saleswoman hearing the order smiles happily. “Where do you want us to send the weapon?”
“I have my way to transport them.”
The woman goes to the owner's room and begins dragging him to help her.
The saleswoman and the skinny man gather the firearms and put it all in a large wooden crate. After a few hours everything is done. A sweat can be seen on the woman and owner's face.
“Thank you for your purchase. When is your man coming to take the weapon?” The saleswoman smiled, today is a good day. She can relax for several months.
“Where is the weapon? Let me check it first.”
“Yes, everything has been gathered at the back.”
At the back of the store I can see several wooden crakes. After I finish checking it. “Can you turn around?”
The saleswoman is confused by the man's request. But since the man already paid for it. She turns around.
Few minutes later. “Okay it's done.”
The saleswoman turns around and her mouth goes wide. Because all the wooden crates have disappeared.
“Where are the crates?”
Without answering her question, I left the shop. The saleswoman quickly goes to see the owner. After explaining what happened. The owner's face changed and decided to watch the surveillance camera.
Looking at the recording, everything is normal. But when the saleswoman turns around, the screen becomes dark. After that the screen turns to normal and the wooden crakes already disappear.
“Boss how?”
“It’s better if we keep quiet about it, if we want to live.”
“Understand.” The saleswoman nodded.

I am already far away from the firearms shop. Before I stored everything in my spatial storage. I cast a darkness spell on the surveillance camera. Even if they show it to someone people will think they edit the recording.
There are a lot of screen billboards showing advertisements near the street. One of them caught my interest. There will be a largest auction in Joy city in two more days. Maybe I can find something interesting.

Joy city has a lot of orphans. Either they have been abandoned by their parents or their parents die because of the criminal. To survive they gather together to survive and create their own gang.
The large criminal group in the city begins to take advantage of the orphan group. To extort them for money and other stuff.
Evening, at the back alley. A group of children and teens are gathering together.
After a while three men came to the alley.
“Here is the collection for today.” The young man with rough clothes handed over the money they got today.
The man with curly hair spoke. “This is not enough.”
“That is all we got today.” The young man spoke hurriedly.
“Don’t worry I have an idea.” A man with a burly body spoke.
The curly-haired man was pretending to be surprised. “What you have an idea, quickly tell us.”
The burly man pointed at the teen girl with blonde hair. The teen girl's face turns pale and begins trembling from fear. “We can sell that girl.”
“What a good idea.”
Another man that came with the other two men can only sigh. He has a family to protect and can only do this kind of job.
The young man blocks the three men. “Wait, give us time; we can get the money!”
“Move aside.” The burly man shoves the young man aside. Because of the difference in strength the young man falls down to the ground. After that the burly man went straight to the teen girl. Suddenly he feels something hugging him.
The burly man turns his head and sees the young man is hugging him. “I am sorry I am not interested in men.” The burly man raises his hand and punches the young man's face.
“Bam!” The young man falls to the ground again.”
“Hahaha, stop playing around, we have other things to do.” The curly haired man laughed.
“Okay.” Before the burly man can take another step. The young man slowly stands up and blocks the burly man path. This time the burly man kicks the young man's stomach. Because of the kick the young man flies toward the orphan group and falls.
The other orphan can only watch because they are sacred.
“Ahhhhh.” The pain from the kick caused the young man to hold his stomach in pain.
