Cheat Awakening

"Take us to the city's most powerful gang," Myne tossed a platinum coin at the bagger and spoke in a cold voice.

The middle-aged beggar didn't display the typical behaviour of a beggar. Instead of grabbing the platinum coin like a greedy ghost, he lifted his dirty head calmly, which had been hidden under long, unwashed hair. He began observing everyone. At first, he didn't take them seriously, but upon seeing Sylphy, he hurriedly stood up as if he had been electrocuted and bowed repeatedly.

"Your Highness, Princess Sylphid, I am deeply honoured to meet you. Please forgive this old man for not recognizing you sooner..."

Seeing the beggar change his attitude faster than changing clothes, everyone couldn't help but twist their mouths. Although they were all thick-skinned, even for them taking such shameless flattery was a bit too much which left them speechless.

"Thank you for your respect, Mr, but I'm no longer a princess, you don't have be behave like that. By the way, can you take us to the headquarters of the most powerful gang? We have business with them," Seeing that the other party was her fan, Sylphy quickly pulled Myne back, took his place, and spoke with a smile.

"It would be my honour, Your Highness. Please, follow me. I take you to the headquarters of the Hairless Gang. It's not far from here," The beggar replied, swiftly pocketing the platinum coin on his lap and leading them toward the Hairless Gang's headquarters. While walking he began to give a basic introduction to the Hairless Gang.

"The Hairless Gang was established a year ago. Its leader has no hair on his entire body due to disease and was often bullied when he was young and seem became somewhat mentally ill. When he awakened his skills, the first thing he did was skin alive all the people who ruined his childhood, including his brother and sister."

"After taking his revenge, he was afraid that the kingdom would punish him for murder, so he ran away to another kingdom to become rich, and nearly ten years later, he returned. Seeing that this kingdom lacked any powerful individuals, he formed his own gang. However he seemed to have something wrong with his mind, the first requirement to join his gang was to have no hair on your head."

"Using his powerful skills, he beat up all the other gangs and forced them to submit to him, becoming the overlord of the slums in the capital. However, he was good at management. Instead of taking everything for himself, he asked the other gangs to pay him a monthly protection fee, allowing them to continue their business. Because of his generosity toward his subordinates, many people were willing to work hard under him, and surprisingly, they're very loyal, of course, if you ask they all hate him to death for not letting them have hair, however in front of money, everything can be put aside, let's not talk about hair."

"Currently, The Hairless Gang now has 20 core members, 60 internal members, and 120 cannon fodder. The rest are just people hired to take care of their needs and entertainment."

After giving the basic introduction of the Hairless Gang, the beggar fell silent and said no more. However, the amount of information he gave was a bit too much, which made Myne feel suspicious, and he quickly used appraisal on him, who was acting mysteriously

Didn't he say Hairless Gang members are very loyal and aren't allowed to have any hair on their bodies? Why is he praising them with one hand and betraying them with the other, and he has also grown up his hair so much to show his rebellious personality? Did his boss steal his wife or daughter or what? Myne thought, confusedly, but he didn't dwell on the internal matters of other people that had nothing to do with him and silently followed the honest traitor, who led them to the entrance of a well-maintained building that looked like a bar. It was a rare sight among the old and ugly houses surrounding it.

"I can't go any further. Please forgive me, Your Highness. I will be in big trouble if they find out I brought you here," The beggar apologized to Sylphy with a sad look on his face as if he truly felt guilty for not being able to help her further.

"All right, we understand. Thanks for your assistance. Now go, no need to ramble on," Before Sylphy could say anything, Myne said pulling her back and again taking the lead before speaking arrogantly, not in the mood to listen to the nonsense of the traitor who seemed to want to play both sides. He gestured to everyone and quickly walked toward the three-story building in front of him, preoccupied with the work ahead. Discover hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Aisha and the others followed him without saying anything, while Sylphy apologized to the beggar for Myne's behaviour before quickly tottering after him. The beggar was left behind, wearing an ugly expression as if he had eaten shit, and hatred toward Myne was over following in his eyes. He wanted to throw away the platinum coin Myne had given him, but thinking about how much it was worth, he reluctantly hid it deepest part of his dirty clothes and cursed Myne under his breath before entering the building through the back door to inform his boss about the VIP guests.

"Halt! Who are you? Uninvited visitors are not allowed here, this is a private property. Please leave if you don't have an invitation card!" Four bald, muscular brothers wearing only shorts, showing off their dense muscles and six-pack abs, stood at the gate, wielding spears, blocking Myne and the others at the gate.

Although Sylphy stepped forward, intending to charm them for easier entry, it seemed these four brothers were the introverted type, unaware of her identity, they remained unmoved, focused on their duty. Of course, this didn't stop them from feasting their eyes on her beauty.

"Brothers, please inform your boss that members of the royal family wish to see him. We have urgent matters to discuss. Tell him that this golden opportunity had knocked on his door, if he misses, others will steal it," Myne spoke with a smile, while gently placing five platinum coins in the hand of the leading bald brother, who was stunned at the sight of so much money.

He immediately let go of his spear, holding the coins with both hands, afraid they might slip away. Before the other three could react, he nodded and hurriedly walked into the building. As expected of a villainous gang—for them, money is god, and everything else is just a means to earn more of it. There is no such thing as morality or loyalty.

"Well, it seems money still holds a lot of power," Myne muttered with a smile, giving the other three guards a tip of one platinum coin each as well who was watching him as if abandoned puppy. As the coin touched their palm, their favorability toward him maxed out at once. One of the honest brothers invited them into the lobby and seated them on a couch, under the confused gazes of other gang members, who were either drinking or playing cards to pass the time. The other two guards also quickly start serving them as if they were Myne's attendants rather than the guards of the Hairless Gang.

"Who are these big shots?" A random gang member asked curiously the bar girl, who was preparing a drink for him.

"How would I know who they are? As far as I remember, there shouldn't be any VIP guests visiting the boss today," The bar girl replied with equal confusion in her eye, she pull out her personal notebook from the women's universal fourth-dimensional pocket ( big boobs ) and quickly check the listed entry. Indeed, as she had said, there was no prior entry of any important guests coming to their base.

"But, no matter who they are, those three girls are so damn hot. If I could have just one of them as my wife, I'd never leave her side. I'd give her the whole world," Random Guy B said, adjusting the little dragon in his pants while his eyes remained glued to Amy as if he'd found his soulmate.

"Huh? Didn't you say the same thing about Mr. Lang's wife and daughter? How did your taste change so soon?" Random Guy A asked, looking at him weirdly.

"Tsk, what's the point of thinking about someone you can never have? Didn't the boss already claim Mr. Lang's wife and daughter? If I don't change my taste, what should I do—be a single dog for the rest of my life? Brother, I don't have the heart of a saint like you, who can stay single for 40 years. I'm still young, and I want a big family," Random Guy B sneered at his friend, who was old enough to be his father, before continuing to ogle Amy, nodding occasionally as if in agreement with himself.

"Bastard, I'm single because I got tired of dealing with those b*tches who only use their bodies to take advantage of honest men like me. You haven't even lost your virginity, so what do you know about the matters between men and women? Once you fall into the hands of a woman, you'll realize the problems we men have to face. That time you'll realise how happy I am being single, and be jealous to death of my freedom," Random Guy A retorted, but his all friends, even the bar girl gave him disgusted looks. Clearly, no one believed his nonsense and they simply ignored him, continuing their discussion about the beautiful girls before them.
