'Devil Face? Are you there?' Wuxing called out in his mind as he wore his white outfit, looking like a snowman, wearing all white. Unfortunately, he didn't get a reply even after he repeated the question.

He wanted to talk with Devil Face as he had some questions regarding their future. Wuxing was supposed to learn everything after escaping the prison but so far nothing changed and Devil Face was only delaying it.

'I guess I can only go out and find something to do.' Wuxing thought as he wore his gear under the suit with another few magazines and bullets before leaving the room. There is still more than a week till he needed to fly out of here but he was broke again. Having only paid for one day at the hotel, he needed money else he would have to sleep outside tomorrow.

As he had no ID, he couldn't book a hotel for the whole week and had to pay upfront instead of after his stay. He could make himself a fake ID but it was best if he got one at the Seven Stars instead, making it legitimate. Wuxing also had to buy other necessities like clothes, suitcase, high-calorie food and much more.

The food was his first priority as he wanted to experiment with his ability soon, testing everything for the future. There was this one idea he wanted to test but he knew it would require a lot of energy.

'Do I have to beat up some thieves again or maybe rob some local criminals? This Gang with red lizard tattoo should be a good target. They have a lot of members and even sell drugs. They are bound to be rich. I just need to find them.' Wuxing thought as he walked towards the elevator like a normal patron but just as he was about to click on the button to call it, he suddenly remembered about something.

He glanced at his palms and his fingerprints turned smooth, disappearing completely. Changing patterns wouldn't work for him as he would have to change them every time so it was best to get rid of them entirely. They were basically useless, not even increasing his grip strength so he had no reason to keep them.

Wuxing also no longer wore his cowboy hat, having no reason to hide but this brought attention to him just when he was about to leave the hotel. His hat made the young receptionist remember him so she recognized the man in a white jacket as he passed by. Too bad that he wasn't the same person anymore which made her confused.

"Sir, please wait!" The receptionist called out to him, seeing only his back and ran after him before he reached the entrance. She was small but cute, having shoulder-length blonde hair, pretty face and figure. She could be considered pretty in modern era standards and she had some confidence thanks to it but the moment she saw Wuxing as he turned around, all of her confidence was crushed.

Wuxing kept his calm, keeping a neutral smile on his face before asking with a manly but melodic and soothing voice, "Is there a problem, Mrs Rossi?" He noticed her nameplate pinned to her shirt as well an engagement ring on her finger so he deducted that she had a fiance.


Who would have expected that she would suddenly blush after getting out of her daze and say in cute laughter, "Haha, I'm still a Miss." Showing her diamond ring she added embarrassedly, watching his reaction, "I'm just wearing my ring on this finger as it doesn't fit the others..."

Wuxing glanced at the ring once again and simply complimented, "It's pretty." He knew she was lying but he didn't want to trouble himself by punishing her, knowing she was just an opportunist woman who would leave or cheat on her man whenever there was a chance to get someone richer or more handsome.

Unfortunately, the fate wanted differently and another person walked into the lobby but the receptionist was too blinded by Wuxing that she didn't see him approaching from the side. With the way the man was looking at her, Wuxing quickly realised something and decided to help the dude get rid of future problems.

If the lady didn't do it with him, she would do the same with someone else. It was just a matter of time. He found it a good way to test his new look as well so he smiled gently at the blonde lady and held onto her chin while adding, "Just like you. Can you tell me how such beauty is still single?"

He fiance who stood to the side wanted to rush up and push Wuxing away from his woman when he stopped himself, hearing his question. He was sure that she will reply that she is engaged but instead she turned all shy and asked back, "Am I really pretty...? I actually had a boyfriend some time ago but we broke up cause he cheated on me so I can only busy myself with work… Trying to forget about him."

'What…?' Her fiance stood there stupefied, not knowing what to say. 'Did she really say she is single…? Did I hear wrong?' He didn't move any further, standing there with his expression confused and decided to listen more.

"Oh, how could he cheat on you? Poor girl… You need to choose better men. I would take you for a coffee but I'm worried about that ring…" Wuxing caressed her cheek as he gave out a look of concern and he asked her, "Are you sure you are single? I don't go after—"

Before he finished his question, the girl cut him off and called out with confidence, afraid that she would lose such a good man, "No! I'm single! Don't worry, I'm not seeing anyone… Can you tell me your name?" She reached out to get hold of Wuxing's hand but he suddenly pulled away and looked to the side, saying calmly, "Well, I think you should rather talk with your man."

"Huh?" The blonde girl was confused for a split second but then looked where Wuxing pointed and her face paled as she asked panickily, "M-marco… What are you doing here…?"

Knowing that he was right, Wuxing didn't stay any longer, walking towards the entrance and patted the poor fiance on the way, saying, "If you really care about her, make sure she thinks of you as the best man alive else she will get stolen easily. It's your choice of what you want to do with it."

Wuxing wasn't playing in matchmaking game so he didn't bother with them anymore, walking away without turning back. He was sure that the man will forgive her, seeing the expression on his face. There was no anger, just some disappointment in himself. Most men would blame themselves after such a scene.

'I guess I need to find myself a new hotel, sigh. Time to ask around and search a bit. There are bound to be some members of that gang roaming the city.' Wuxing thought, knowing that he couldn't go back as the receptionist saw his change in appearance. Fortunately, he was lucky and managed to busy her for a while. If she forgot about him that would be for the best.

As he walked through the city with the hands in his pockets, Wuxing noticed that many ladies kept glancing at him as they passed by him, ogling his body and face with desire in their eyes. He looked at the shop's window, checking out his reflection and wondered, 'Did I make myself too handsome? Well, as long as Dongmei like it then it's okay. She deserves to have a handsome boyfriend.'

He wasn't overconfident in himself as he really believed that. If he didn't, Wuxing would only make himself decent enough to be considered handsome instead of making himself shine like a lightbulb in the night.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

...….

As Wuxing was roaming the city, Devil Face was in a special place where only Spirits had access to visit, called commonly Spirit Realm. A few months ago, this place was full of Spirits, filling the whole city that looked exactly like that of normal humans but now there were less than a tenth of the original number of its habitats.

Every Spirit was leaving to the Earth, searching for their ability user before the big event that would happen in less than six months in the future. Everything was announced half a year ago and since then, all Spirits had finally decided to find one for themselves.

Some of the Spirits liked living around humans so they were within them for a long time even before that but the others preferred playing around in their world instead. Devil Face was one of those people until he was finally forced to work.

Right now, he was waiting in one of the bars' private rooms, drinking his favourite drink while waiting for the two ladies that accepted his invitation. Fortunately, he didn't need to wait for long as he heard the steps coming from behind him just a few minutes after he ordered his drink.

Even before he turned around, Devil Face could hear familiar voice cursing him, "Bastard! You have some guts to call us here after all you and your ability user did!"

Sandra and Maya walked up from behind, one having an aggressive expression on her face with her long black hair flipping from left to the right as she walked while the other walking calmly with a mysterious smile on her cute face. As Devil Face had his mask, his expression was always hidden from others but he was currently smiling widely.

"Sandra, Maya, we meet again so soon." Devil Face called out to them happily, drinking his drink through the straw but Sandra took his drink away, slamming the glass against the table before asking angrily, "What do you want?! We are busy! You only playing around but we are not." She looked at his mask with a confused look with a second of yearning that flashed past it her gaze but she quickly hid it away.

To her surprise, Devil Face only laughed and suddenly reached out, getting hold of her chin before asking curiously, "You doesn't attack me right away and you are much gentler today… Are you ill?"

Devil Face knew what was coming so he pulled away just before her hand smashed against his but then another fist travelled towards his stomach, this time finding its target. Devil Face momentarily collapsed to the ground, coughing madly and Sandra shouted at him, "You are the one who is ill! Your whole family is ill!"

Sandra kept on getting frustrated each time she heard Devil Face's voice but then she looked at him coughing on the ground and her mind instantly recalled the scene when she caught him red-handed as he peeked at her bathing. At that time, she was really mad at him, almost beating him to death but when she knocked his mask away and saw his real face, she was stunned, all of her anger disappearing momentarily.

He was her ideal man! His face was perfect, looking just like she imagined her future husband would be. Unfortunately, in that situation, Sandra didn't have any other choice but to run away from there, leaving him alone on the ground, waiting for a deathblow that never came.

Since then, she could never forget his face, always thinking of it but for some reason, she didn't know how to express herself. It didn't help that each of their meetings end up being a tragedy where Devil Face would tease her and she would get pissed before beating him up.

Seeing that Devil Face was still down, Sandra felt bad and crouched down, asking worriedly, "Are you okay…? I didn't want to hit so hard…"

Devil Face laid down on his back, raising his hand upwards and called out with breaks as if he had troubles breathing, "I can't… Breathe… I need… Air…"

Maya giggled under her nose and recommended the treatment to Sandra, "I think you need to give him some air from mouth to mouth. He will die if don't."

As Sandra thought only on helping him, her mind got filled with guilt and she agreed right away, "Alright!" She quickly kneeled next to his face and reached out to take off his mask with a serious expression when Devil Face suddenly stopped pretending, saying amazed, "Wow, you really planned on doing so. I'm actually surprised."

"Ahhh! Idiot!" Sandra instantly got mad and shouted out of frustration, smashing her hands against the ground, but fortunately, Devil Face already escaped, rolling away.

Maya could only shake her head, not understanding how come Devil Face was so stupid. She set this up for him perfectly but he ruined it yet again. She tried so many times but it never worked. At this point she decided to leave it to fate, knowing the two were hopeless.

Devil Face waved with his hands to stop her and called out, "Okay, okay, calm down, I was just joking." Sandra only raised her hand again but then lowered it, not having the will to beat her perfect man anymore.

"What did you call us here for? I suppose it's about your new ability user, right?" Mata was the one who asked the question, knowing how important Devil Face was for her girl, Anna.

"Haha, yes! Exactly. I realised you need my boy. How about we strike a deal?" Devil Face proposed as he laughed.

Maya didn't get angry, already knowing that Devil Face would come to them to get some benefits first. She looked at Sandra and suddenly got an idea, planning to kill two birds with one stone.

Approaching her, Maya hugged her from behind, trailing with her hand from Sandra's waist up to her chest before asking, "What do you think?"

"She is definitely a beauty." Devil Face nodded in all honesty, somehow knowing where she was going with it.

"Maya?! What are you saying?" Sandra asked confused, blushing a bit after being called pretty but Maya didn't care about her opinion, deciding to help her and continued with a merchant expression, "How about I trade a date with this beauty for my Anna's date with your ability user? Even if he doesn't accept her, he needs to meet up and talk with her alone. What do you think?"

It would be strange if Devil Face didn't accept so he naturally called out in laughter, "Haha, Deal!"
