Most people are born ordinary, but there are always some who, despite being born ordinary, aspire to greatness.
From an exploited undocumented worker to the godfather of the dark;
From those who obey the rules at the bottom of society, to the emperor behind the scenes who makes the rules;
The country belongs to the federation when the sun shines, but it belongs to me when the night falls!
"Sometimes, shadows can not only be as vast as light but can even cover it!"
"We never extort anyone, every penny we make can pass through our conscience."
If someone knocks on your door at night, they either bring my regards or brings the destruction for your arrogance.
As for what you will get, it depends on how you choose, my friend!

Empire of Shadows

But soon he found out, the Mayor had known about it too, but he... it wasn't good for him to show up here, so he sent Sinker to attend.


That avoided some issues, for example the Mayor might not have been able to sit right at the center of the presidium, the union people wouldn't negotiate whether you're the Mayor or not.


Even if it were the President, the union folks would want to arm wrestle with him, let alone a Mayor.


So he wouldn't come himself, and sent Sinker instead.


"I'll sit right next to you then," Sinker even took the initiative to offer Lance a cigarette.


Cigarettes are always a social tool, even for two people who are strangers, even those with "opposing" relationships, to have a chat.


Lance smoked the cigarette and sized him up again, "I thought you guys would hide."


Sinker's eyes narrowed into a slit as he smiled, "Hiding doesn't solve problems, Mr. Lance."
