Chapter 26 : Don Masters

Chapter 26 : Don Masters

2 Years and 6 months after Nelson Master's release.

Nelson

I met Lillith while I was still an adventurer. She was a prostitute at the time. I really liked her, she was quite skilled, also really intelligent. 

This was about 9 months since my release from prison. She inspired me in a way, I decided to pull the trigger on the next stage of my life. 

You see, after I was released from prison I decided to gain strength, I joined the adventurer guild. They had no ranking or anything, the staff basically gave you jobs and assessed your level and all that. I joined multiple parties. I trained hard. Got better and better jobs and more money. 

But I wasn't satisfied. I started noticing the same patterns repeat itself whenever we faced monsters. Different type of monsters had different patterns. I started being able to predict the movements including attack and defense patterns. They where always the same. I got to the point where I could start doing most of my high level missions solo. So I did. 

I kept all the money ofcourse. No need to pay partners you don't have. I also noticed my appetite started growing along with my level. That's when I met Lilith, I could tell the first time we slept together that she was different. 

When she told me her story. I didn't particularly care but, 'The basics of any successful business is hiring people more capable than yourself in the areas you're lacking' was what my father used to say. 

So I made her a deal. I would free her from this life if she started working for me. 

She agreed like it's a joke. She probably thought I was kidding. Just idle pillow talk like she must have heard many times before.

I slaughtered the pimp and took over, and when the rest of the organization came after me for revenge, I slaughtered them too. 

They gave up in 6 month's time. Killing people yields massive experience. My Level shot through the roof. The remnants from the defeated factions soon joined me and I am now the new Don Of the East Empire. They basically handed it over on the silver platter at the end. 

I didn't even need to kill Don Milton myself, his number 2 David killed him and waited for me when we infiltrated his Mansion. They realized they where trapped. 

I could now earn money without lifting a finger. But I still need to get those assholes that took everything from me. 

After that I got my first level down notification. I was Level 457 when I took over. It seems you need to maintain your level by eating a lot and also exercising or killing things yourself.

I started getting into legitimate business. I could maintain my level by this point, it settled around 320. 

I attacked a kind of big deal business guy's business, and when he was down I helped him out and I started a partnership with him. I had him adopt Lilith and a few other skilled girls that we used for corporate espionage. You know to make it look more legit. 

This guy was in the foraging business. I started building up an intelligence network throughout the East Empire. I rescue people in need here and there, you know like beggars and prostitutes. It's amazing how hope can inspire such loyalty in these types of people. 

I've found and destroyed the people responsible for my demise. I've replaced the government employees with my people, then started pushing those business owners to bankruptcy the same way as what they did to me. 

My intelligence network even reaches into the Shadowfall kingdom now. Once I get my organization strong enough, They are next.

6 Months Later

Normally this wouldn't even register on my radar, at the time this one guy was just another pebble at the side of the road that was in my way. I barely remember the guy. But I did take notice when I read a very interesting report from the Shadowfall kingdom about a hero. That's what they called me when I first arrived in this world too, that, and his name: Kaijuu Ryu. This information told me that I'm dealing with another guy from earth.

So this kid, Kaijuu Ryu came along and started selling really high quality harvested plants, and later also potions and stuff. So I had Lillith look into it. She worked fast, It only took a month. Lilith is amazing. We even managed to chase him out of town. I didn't think of him after that until I read the report.

[------------------------------------------------------------------------------------]

Sir Kaijuu Ryu arrived in the Shadowfall kingdom 9 Months Ago, Saving king Raymond's life upon arrival. We appraised his Level at the time. He was Level 24. The strange thing to note is that according to the reports, he slayed a Level 124 Orc that poisoned the king, proceeding to knock 7 guards unconscious before saving the king including a level 208 knight. 1 guard died protecting the king. Kaijuu Ryu was then taken to the palace and given a reward. He married 2 of the king's daughters. Princess Roka and Lady Felmina. 

Princess Roka spearheaded and installed indoor plumbing in the Shadowfall kingdom and was busy constructing a sewer system in a new section of the kingdom when they met. 

The construction has since been completed. Lady Felmina has no notable achievements. The main reason for reporting this now is a report leaked about an incident that occurred recently. 

There was a break in in princess Roka's room and the culprit was the son 'Ronald' of Duke Francis Mayburry. What remains unclear is the reason for the conflict. According to sources the head assistant Loyd witnessed the event. Ronald Mayburry was at Level 150 and after the incident we appraised Kaijuu Ryu once again. He was Level 27. 

According to the head assistant Kaijuu Ryu dominated the physical conflict with little to no effort, breaking the victim's spirit as they fought, but healing him each time. the victim was powerless according to the report. 

Afterward Ronald Mayburry was charged with treason, blackmail among other charges. We thought it best to bring this under your attention as soon as possible Don Masters. 

Last known location of Kaijuu Ryu is: Moonlight Farming Area Community. 

Kaijuu Ryu was placed in charge of this district as part of the reward for saving the king's life. We Loyally await your orders regarding this matter.

I guess I better go meet this guy. Maybe crush him personally this time.

You know what, no. 

I think I'll send David. He has some political experience.
