章節 116: Chapter 35:Leaving Red Street

Saturday morning in the East Borough was the same as always, with the ever present yellow clouds in the sky and a horrible smell in the air, the workers were not resting and were on their way to their jobs in the factories where their pay was a pittance but that was all they had.

Among the various workers was a brown-haired woman who was holding tightly the hand of a girl very similar to her and also hung a medium-sized bag on her shoulder.

They were Mantis along with her mother and they were finally in the process of leaving this rotten area of Backlund.

Passing through an alley, Mantis could hear how some homeless people were talking about something...

"Did you hear what happened last night, it seems that someone robbed the Creed..." one of them said in an astonished voice but he was hit by another who glared at him

"Shut the fuck do you want to kill us?" the man whispered angrily as he looked around to see if anyone heard them but he only saw how Mantis was looking at him.

"What are you looking at bitch" the man growled at the girl scaring her making her hug the side of her mother who hurried her step.

"Mantis, I told you that you can't look at people like that" the woman said scared as she moved further away from the alley always keeping close to the girl who nodded strongly also scared.

"Sorry mommy I won't do it again" said the girl looking at the dirty floor.

Sighing, the mother could only keep up as she looked around for any dangerous person.

Emotions in the East Borough seemed more dangerous than before, as she had finally found out what had happened in the bar where that kind gentleman had given her that 10 pound note.

It turns out that he calls himself Mr. Holmes and he and his partner had not only sent multiple members of the Black Skull to the hospital but had kidnapped the second in command of the gang.

No one had seen him since then...

Later on Friday afternoon and evening some madman had robbed the Creed of a large sum of money and had also killed several members in their way out.

The Creed have been searching for the culprit since and have been very aggressive in their search.

'Mother, give me strength to pass this test,' the mother thought as she continued advancing with her daughter.

Right now they were on the street most traveled by workers and if they wanted to leave East Borough they had no other option but to go through Red Street.

This is because the area they lived in was a ~relatively safe~ part of the East Borough but the problem was that it was located on the sides of the area meaning they didn't have many options to leave it.

The long road option was a resounding no, if they wanted to take that road they had to go through the most dangerous area of the East Borough and they couldn't do that.

So the best and only option is to go through the red street and hope for the best...

A group of men were talking drinking at the blue bar.

"When I find that son of a bitch, I swear I'm going to kill him..." one of the men said with hate, who was somewhat bald.

"You can count on us, I ask for the face" answered another who seemed to have a misshapen jaw and his eyes were widely separated.

"What kind of madman thinks he can rob the Creed and get away with it." spoke one who had a horrible scar on his cheek, it looked as if someone had shot him there.

"They kill Federic and Vita, the bastards didn't even know what hit them" said the last one with fake pain but he couldn't hide his dark smile.

"Get that disgusting fishy smile off your face Ecuador why don't you go with a whore so we don't have to see you,who knows,maybe you can see your mother." said the one with the scar causing the man with the horrible smile to look at him with hate .

"Fuck you bastard" Ecuador spat causing the other to just laugh.

With a deep frown, the one with the dark smile got up from his place and left the blue bar, going out into the street to control himself.

'Who the fuck does that idiot think he is if I only could I would kill him!!!.' Ecuador thought as the man lit a cigarette but as he inhaled from the cigarette a familiar face made him stop.

A young woman with brown hair and eyes who was accompanied by a girl just like her.

'Isn't that Sweet Lips? It's been a damn long time since I took her to bed,' Ecuador thought with a dark smile as he drop his cigarette to the ground and put it out with the sole of his shoe.

'I've got some steam to blow off' with that on his mind he started going towards the mother-daughter duo and this made the mother shudder through her sixth sense…

...

"Mommy, what's wrong?" her daughter's voice brought her out of her stupor and the woman could only give her a tense smile.

"It's okay my love, what do you think if we speed up the pace a little more" said the woman and Mantis nodded.

Before the mother could pick up her pace again her sixth sense kicked in for a short moment and in horror she turned but she couldn't see anyone.

"Honey, I'm going to carry you for a while,you're tired after walking so much, right?" The mother didn't wait for her daughter's answer, but she grabbed Mantis in her arms and increased her pace much more, it even seemed as if she were running....

....

In an alleyway not far from them was a figure dressed in a black windbreaker with a gloomy mask on his face, on his left wrist was what appeared to be a blade that was smeared with fresh blood.

"Don't you know it's impolite to bother the ladies?" he said with annoyance towards a figure that was on the ground next to him.

This was Ecuador who had dead eyes and in his neck there was a hole where the blade had stabbed him.

Using the dead man's clothing, Adryan cleaned the hidden blade, after which he stopped flexing his forearm causing the blade to hide again.

"Well I'll let you rest for a while I have to have a talk with your friends" he said as he went deeper into the alley and in his hand was a very small bag with some money.

'Why do they have to be so poor...' was the last thought on Adryan's mind as he disappeared into the darkness of the alley, leaving Ecuador's corpse as food for the rats.

章節 117: Chapter 36:The Creed that disappeared

Running through the streets in the middle of the day was a man with a horrible scar on his cheek and a part of his clothes had blood stains on it.

'SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT IT WAS HIM IT WAS HIM IT WAS HIM!!!!" thought with horror the man who turned to look behind him every 5 steps he took for fear that that man was behind him.

Everything was going well a few minutes ago, he and his companions had managed to grab a pretty lady to have a good time as they always did, there was nothing wrong with that...

Although Ecuador hadn't returned to the bar yet, they had bet that he had paid a street girl for a quickie so they didn't care.

But before they could try to remove the woman's clothes a shadow fell from the ceiling on top of one of them and before anyone could react he had slit the neck of another who was holding the woman's legs with a blade coming out of his wrist and blood shot out staining him and the woman.

He didn't even think about it and throwing the terrified girl towards that monster he fled from there as fast as he could ignoring the girl's scream and just hoping the monster didn't chase him.

He had recognized that monster and he thought it was a lie made by one of the men from the Black Skull gang.

As how a man dressed in a black windbreaker and a creepy mask along with a woman had torn apart his friends and how the masked man called himself Mr. Holmes...

The so-called Mr. Holmes had told him to tell everyone that he was back but they all just laughed in his face.

And now that same Mr. Holmes had killed his companions and he would be next if he did not manage to arrive with more people.

After running for what seemed like an eternity he saw with immense joy a familiar group of 5 men were smoking something in a corner fo the street

"GUYS GUYS HELP ME" he yelled with all his might towards them making them turn to look at him surprised by that.

"Jhony what the hell?!!! where are the others?!!!" a man whose hair had a large amount of gray yelled at him and Jhony fell to his knees as he reached them, taking large breaths of air.

"They...they...." Jhony was trying to get air to speak but he couldn't and this made the gray-haired man even more angry, who grabbed him by the arms, making him look up.

But that anger faded when he touched something wet and looking at his hand he saw how it was stained with blood.

Jhony was going to try to continue speaking but when he looked behind them his eyes widened in horror but before he could say anything a knife plunged into his chest surprising everyone else.

The scream of a street girl who saw that did not take long to sound and the workers and homeless who had witnessed that, all of them began to run away from there.

"WHAT?!!!" Before any of them could process what had happened the sound of someone choking was heard behind them so turning quickly they saw how the one behind had a blade through his throat.

"I hope I'm not disturbing anything"said a voice that was somewhat dark and mocking.

Behind the man was a tall figure dressed in a black windbreaker and a gloomy mask, this figure had his left hand behind the man's neck and taking his hand out of there they saw how there was a blade in his wrist, while the man now lifted his hands to his neck trying to stop the bleeding as he fell to the ground.

"Gentlemen, I am happy to inform you that your days of life have come to an end..."

.....

...

Removing the hidden blade from the chest of the last man, Adryan wiped the blood from the blade with his clothes and the blade hid again, after that he took out some cards from one of his many pockets and placed them on the bodies of the men.

'These should already be a good part of the members of the Creed so I only have one thing left to do...' Adryan thought after going through all the pockets of the bodies and left the place.

....

On Saturday afternoon a large number of people watched in amazement as a 4-story building went up in flames, this building was well known for being the main base of the Creed.

All the people who lived next to the building could only leave the few things they had in their rooms because of the fire, but several others decided to stay and burn with their things, but to everyone's surprise, the fire that burned the base of the Creed was not spreading to others.

Many of the people seeing this began to pray, claiming that this was the punishment of the Gods in which they believed.

"WHAT IS HAPPENING!!!!" a familiar voice shouted loudly in the area causing the people who were watching the fire to look at a man in fear.

The people around this man moved away from him making a big circle around him, this man was someone muscular and tall with black eyes and yellow hair with an face with many wrinkles.

This man was Edgar Munich the current leader of the Creed who watched in disbelief as his life's work burned before him.

"Finally you arrived to see the fireworks, I was afraid for a moment that you wouldn't come." A very provocative voice spoke causing Edgar to turn his gaze and see how a man had appeared standing on the roof next to the one that was burning.

This was a tall figure dressed in a black windbreaker and a creepy mask.

"What do you think, do you like the new decoration I put up?" the masked man said mockingly.

The veins bulge on Edgar's face to the point that it looked like it would explode and he yelled at the figure with great hatred.

"WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM"

"Of course I know who you are Edgar Munich but let me introduce myself I am Mr. Holmes and also your Executioner" giving a small bow to Edgar who now his veins seemed to beat as if hearts occur.

He already planned to make the death of this so-called Mr. Holmes slow but after that now he planned to do worse.

"GET DOWN HERE..." Edgar's words lost in his mouth as he saw how a short sword of fire formed in the hand of the man who threw it towards him and fell right between his feet.

He couldn't even process what was happening because the sword glowed for a moment before it exploded into fire engulfing him.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH" Edgar's scream filled the streets and he fell to the ground and started rolling to try to put out the fire but no matter how hard he tried the fire would not go out.

People looked at this in horror and no one came to help the man who was still on fire rolling while screaming from the horrible pain he was experiencing.

After a few minutes Edgar stopped moving and the building that was the base of the Creed collapsed and the so-called Mr. Holmes had disappeared....
