Chapter 104 104. Rise Of A New King.

?

Wolfgang wanted to reply but Kevin quickly interjected.

"It is," He lied. He had no Mistletoe and he certainly didn't know the current price of the drug in the underground market.

But a smile appeared on everyone's face, except the fourth boss as he asked doubtfully. "But what's the catch?"

This time around, Kevin couldn't hold back the smile from his face. It seemed this fourth boss was more cautious than the others.

"Nothing too extravagant. I just need to be at the helm of what goes in and out of the underground world." Kevin explained, leaving everyone in the room aghast.

"What the f.u.c.k did you just say?" The Second gang boss asked, his voice laced with confusion and anger.

The third gang boss turned towards Wolfgang. "Oi!! Wolfgang!! What kind of messed up psycho did you bring to us?"

"The kind that will make you all rich beyond your wildest dreams."

Kevin's words made everyone in the room even more angry and every one of them aimed their pistol towards Kevin and Wolfgang.

'What did I just hear?'

'He wants to control the helm of the underground world?'

'Doesn't that mean he wants to rule the underground?'

'Who does this fool think he is?'

'Has he not met the King before?'

'He's called the beast for crying out loud!!!'

'We might as well Lodge a few bullets to save him from his imminent misery.'

These words flowed through the minds of the bosses and their right-hand men as everyone pointed their guns at Kevin and Wolfgang.

Wolfgang facepalmed while letting out a weary sigh.

He had known that it would be difficult to convince these guys, but Kevin had requested that he bring those who were really dependent on the drugs but didn't have enough funds to get it for themselves.

Wolfgang meticulously researched the four bosses before him and Kevin. He knew every one of them would need a lot more than Kevin's words to be convinced into joining him.

Sensing the tension in the air, the fourth gang boss cackled out loud, forcing everyone's attention towards him. The fourth boss felt that Kevin looked a lot like him during his early days.

Boys who had a little bit of cash, and began to think that they could make waves in the underground world by doing things no one else could.

He could understand Kevin's desire and he agreed that it was alright to have a couple of dreams.

But he never expected Kevin to blurt out such an impossible dream. Well, the one reigning now made it an impossible dream. So the fourth boss tried to be the voice of reason by talking calmly to Kevin.

After all, if he had a big mouth, then he must have a lot of cash in his pocket, so why not put it to good use by making him buy him a lot of Mistletoe with that money?

But first, he would have to be on Kevin's good side before trying anything else.

"Listen to me boy," He began, leaning a bit forward on the sofa before asking.

"Do you really know what the underground world is?"

His question made every other boss relax a bit as they snickered while lowering their guns, leaning back into their seats.

"Oh, so he's just a rich little rookie with a big dream," The first boss laughed it off before gulping down some wine from the bottle placed on the table.

He continued in place of the fourth boss. "Listen to me, the underground is like a really huge labyrinth underneath the city and it is completely ruled by The King."

He continued. "The King controls the most coveted object in the underground. Mistletoe, but obtaining just one gram of mistletoe is extremely difficult."

The second gang boss interjected. "But there are two ways to obtain it. You can either buy it from the agents selling it in specific designated spots or you can earn it in a battle."

"Earning it through both ways is very difficult but you will surely earn a lot more than the common folks if you take part in the latter."

The fourth boss joined in once again. "So, if you're in possession of a huge amount of Mistletoe, just abandon your initial goal because the best you can do is sell the drug at a cheaper rate to people like us and earn a little more cash. Then we can in turn connect you to some influential people in the underground world. So what do you say, huh?"

Kevin found their words amusing and their reasons laudable.

He should sell to them at a cheaper rate?

That way, he would earn more money.

How naive did they think he was?

Kevin chuckled softly before saying. "I still stand by my words and my question remains the same, are you in or out?"

His gaze shifted towards the four men standing behind their bosses.

It almost felt like Kevin was talking directly to them and not the bosses sitting in front of them.

"That's it! I've had it with this punk! You want to rule the underground?! I'm done hearing your delusional dreams?" The first gang boss raised his gun once again. This time around he seemed more determined to kill Kevin than before.

"Me too. I bet the mistletoe is in his fancy car parked outside. We can just kill him now and get what we want," The second added.

The third chuckled before standing up as well, aiming his gun at Kevin and Wolfgang. "In case you didn't know Wolfgang, The King has given every one of us a stern order to eliminate those who would entertain the idea of usurping him."

"And it looks to us that that's what you two are trying to do," The fourth joined the others. After all, the second Boss was right. They could just kill them both and steal the drug from the car.
