Chapter 79
The entire alley had been dyed red . Human bodies laid scattered on the ground .
In front of me, a shivering man was seated on the floor . He was looking at me with an expression of terror while a stream of yellow liquid created a puddle on the ground .
"… Now, can you answer some questions?" I smiled brightly at the man . He was one of the weakest robbers, just at the third-layer of mana . The only reason he was alive was that I needed someone to guide me .
"W-What do you want to k-know?" The man asked in a trembling voice . I frowned in disgust, dammit, this man shat himself .
"What gang do you belong, how many members the gang has, the name of your boss . I need that kind of information . "
The man paled in fear when he heard my questions . He was not an idiot, so he could understand my purpose based on my questions and means .
However, when he saw my smiling look, he knew that his only way to survive was answering my questions .
The man quickly told me all the information he knew . He even told me the name of the leader's mistress, and how many women he had slept with .
Once he finished speaking, I turned around and started walking away .
"Guide me to the hideout . " I ordered coldly .
"O-Only if you p-promise me y-you will not kill me . " The man forced himself to say those words despite his fear .
I gave him a brief glance before nodding . "Okay . "

The man sighed in relief and stood up before taking me to the gang's base .
The gang he belonged was called Red Skull . It was a medium-sized gang that occupied part of the east of the capital . According to the man, its leader was an eight-layer warrior, and he had three seven-layer warriors as subordinates .
Moreover, he told me that the gang had some connections with the imperial guards and some noble families . That is pretty normal, though . No gang can survive in the capital without a strong enough backer .
As I said before, my best bet to start acquiring support so Dina ascends the throne is the commoners, and the best place to start is with the gangs .
Gangs have a certain level of influence in the capital, mainly among commoners . Even if they can't afford to offend the nobles and have to be careful with the imperial guards, their words have a strong power among commoners . No commoner dares to offend a member of the gangs unless he is strong enough or also has a strong backing .
Furthermore, gaining control of a gang is not hard . Unless the gang is a force belonging to a noble family, you only need to show a stronger punch to become its leader .
Of course, it does not guarantee the members' loyalty, and they will probably try to kill you a few times before accepting you as their leader . But with enough time and enough benefices, they'll become your arm and legs .
The Red Skull's base was located in a bar hidden in a dark alleyway . Even before reaching the bar, I could already feel dozen of gazes looking warily towards me . I got the feeling that they just needed an order to pounce like rabid dogs .
Even the prostitutes nearby had a sharp look on their eyes . I had to admit that this gang had a pretty good sense of unity .
When I reached the door of the bar, a sweet and imposing voice greeted me .
