The redhead came home at 2:30 am and he was laughing softly.

After walking around the East Borough all afternoon and Saturday night, the redhead was sure that the leader of Blood Mark would start looking for him with much more desire.

This made him think again about what he did to all the gangsters who had the misfortune to run into him.

Strip them naked, make them hug each other, tie them up like this with their own clothes, and send them like that to their boss.

Laughing some more, Adryan was taking a cold shower and while he insulted the nobles for being able to bathe with hot water, this made him think of something else.

His pockets were practically dry of green...

He had to find a way to get money and lots of it.

He didn't have any extraordinary artifacts of his own yet and if he faced a beyonder with one he would be at a disadvantage.

Leaving that for later, Adryan fell asleep and decided to go in the morning to look for a job at Bravehearts Bar, and if it didn't work well.

Well, the gangs would not only have to deal with their members being beaten up but also being robbed.

Leaving that option as last, Adryan went to his bed to sleep.

When Adryan woke up, he put on the mask and covered himself with the sack, preventing people from seeing his details other than he is quite tall.

Arriving at the bar, maybe it was because it was Sunday morning but it was somewhat empty.

The redhead simply went to the front and sat in front of the bar, the bartender gave him a strange look before Adryan asked to see the Old Man.

The redhead made his voice deeper on purpose taking advantage of the abilities brought by the potion.

The bartender looked at him for a while longer before he said he was in a poker room in the back.

Nodding to the bartender, Adryan restrained himself from provoking the bartender since Bravehearts would be his work area for some time.

The old man was 'alone' this time although he was obviously surrounded by zombies protecting him.

"What do you want and talk fast I don't have all day"

The same reaction as when he first met him and Adryan just chuckled this made the old man pop a vein on his forehead.

"If you don't have anything to ask me to get out"

Deciding that it would be fun to mess with the Old Man, the redhead spoke.

"Can't a grandson come to see his grandfather?"

"WHAT"

Obviously, the old man didn't expect that answer so he reacted strongly.

Laughing out loud Adryan watched as the zombies began to rise so he finally stopped 'joking' with the old man.

With the two of them alone, the redhead finally took off his mask and allowed the old man to see his face.

Seeing that face along with the red hair, the old man heaved a heavy sigh.

When the zombies saw the redhead's smiling face, they simply sat back down and continued playing as if nothing had happened.

The old man at this point gave up on the redhead and simply asked him what he wanted this time.

"I want more jobs"

At this, the old man sighed again.

"I don't think you've forgotten the last job I gave you, didn't that give you anything?"

"I didn't win anything, you could say it was a scam and a very annoying one"

Listening to the redhead's tone, the old man decided not to poke his nose into the subject.

The theme of jobs at Bravehearts Bar was simply that they would post the job on the 'wall' and ask nothing.

If something happened between the 'boss' and the one who accepted the job, they wouldn't ask or interfere, as long as it didn't affect the bar.

He also remembered what he read in the newspaper that 8 corpses were found in the middle of the street last week...

"So it's the same conditions as before?"

"As long as they pay well I won't have any problem with the jobs"

"Then go to the second floor and enter the first room on the right, that's where all the jobs they commission here are."

Nodding to the old man, Adryan put the mask back on and left the room heading for the second floor.

Going up to the second floor, the redhead entered through the door the old man said.

The room was quite different from the others, this one was quite empty of chairs and there were only a few guards in the corners who stared at Adryan.

He ignored this and went to the middle where a blond man was attending to some documents.

"Reason for visit?"

"Commissioned works"

The blond simply took a green folder from his side and placed it in front of Adryan keeping his attention on the documents.

This reminded the redhead of an annoying secretary from his school but he grabbed the folder and began to flip through the jobs.

There were all kinds of jobs from finding objects, people and to even researching people.

Adryan completely ignored finding things because he wasn't a Seer to do all that process.

But there was one that caught his attention and he was confident that he could finish it before the end of the day.....
