Dorian decided to complete his own side mission. He would kill all the thugs and finish by their leader. This would complete his side mission and allow him to get even more rewards.

To do so, he first needed to find a hideout. Although he wanted to complete the mission as fast as possible because the sooner he completed it, the better the rewards, rushing too much would kill him.

Exterminating the gang would take a few days at least, and he wasn't a superhuman without the need to sleep, eat or drink, so he needed to find a hideout. And if he were to be injured he would need this place to hide and recover.

So Dorian began walking around the city, trying to find a safe place. Unfortunately, this was an ancient kind of city, so all the houses were barely big enough to take in its inhabitants, so hiding in those was impossible. And there didn't seem to be any spare houses with no one inside.

After a few minutes, Dorian was surprised to find a huge mansion in the middle of the city. That's when he realized a vital point he had forgotten: This was a middle aged city, there had to be a city lord, right?

And although the chances weren't high, this could potentially form a third power. The most probable situation was that the police was under the City Lord, but another smaller, but more problematic, possibility was that the City Lord was yet another power.

They shouldn't be fighting on the open, but the City Lord could be waiting for the two monsters threatening it to weaken each other, before eliminating them easily.

If this were the case, then if Dorian completed either mission perfectly he would have the City Lord after him. Of course, this was only if the police and the City Lord were led by two different people.

But all of that didn't matter much right now, he hadn't even started making plans. Dorian continued searching for two hours but couldn't find any hideout. He had tried breaking in a few shops but Dorian painfully found out that he was unable to get in.

However, he made an interesting discovery. At some point he reached one of the ramparts and climbed on it. At first he was surprised by how sparse the guards were on the walls, but once he climbed it he understood why.

The city he was in was actually on top of a cliff! Anyone who wanted to invade the city would only be able to take one way.


The attackers would have to fight while moving upwards, giving them a disadvantaged. Moreover, if they really tried to come, only a small amount of soldiers could come at the same time. If this small amount of soldiers really came up they would be fired arrows at, followed by soldiers.

So the city was pretty much impossible to invade, from the outside at least.

But other than that, Dorian also made an interesting encounter. He happened to stumble upon a Red Scorpion gangster group.

They were only three of them, but Dorian decided not to take any risk. He approached them like any other passerby.

But once he neared them, his stabbed one of them in the kidneys with his dagger. The two quickly drew out their swords, showing their skill.

Dorian had actually stumbled on what seemed to be a group of elites. But that was just fine for Dorian. He took out his dagger from the first victim and sheathed it back, drawing out his sword. Meanwhile, the guy stabbed fell to the ground, bleeding out.

The ensuing fight was far harder than Dorian thought it would be. Despite the two of them being unable to cooperate and his superior attributes, he was still injured during the fight.

He found out that he wasn't as good as he thought he was with the sword. In actual fight, he only knew about the stances and how to use them, but he lacked the experience. In the end, he was able to kill one of them with a sneak attack from the dagger he hid.

As for the second one, although he was better with the sword compared to Dorian, Dorian got him thanks to the attributes. Dorian had actually grown a bit complacent and this made him realize that he wasn't as invulnerable as he thought.

However, Dorian also discovered something about those 'elite' gangsters as he liked to call them. He had felt that their attributes were higher than normal people. Not to the point of becoming equal to him, but they were probably as strong as Dorian was when he entered the world.

Dorian was once again reminded of how close to death he actually was when he decided to fight against the five first robbers. Had he missed the first ex soldier, the police would have certainly arrived too late.

And that also helped Dorian realize how rare ability books were. He had only gained one by perfectly finishing that test. So for the mission he is currently doing, that is killing the gangsters, he probably wouldn't get many ability books.

After killing them he also realized another problem of his. To get his reward, he needed to bring the corpses to the police station. But dragging them was just too long, however he didn't have any other mean of transportation.

Dorian knew about a way, but he couldn't do that. That was to decapitate the bodies and bring only the heads. But that was too far.

Although the killings didn't bother him too much, that was mainly because he didn't really have a choice and Dorian pictured them as characters in a game, not real people. But to decapitate them… that was going to far, Dorian didn't see himself handling that.

Moreover, although the surrounding people seemed used to the fights and didn't react strongly to them, decapitating someone was not the same thing.

So Dorian had to stick with the first idea, and that was to drag the corpses back to the station. And that's exactly what he did after applying one of his band-aids on his injuries, restoring his health back to full.

He was afraid other gang members would come to attack him on the way but he was able to reach the station in one piece.

There, Charles clearly looked stunned when he saw the two corpses, but nodded at Dorian and said "Good job. I spoke with the head of your case and we decided that you would get a book every ten of them. And don't worry about dragging the corpses, we will know it if you get one."

After that, Dorian was too tired to continue searching the rest of the city and decided to go to the best place he had discovered, the City Lord mansion.

He hadn't searched it in depth but out of all the places he visited, this one was the biggest, and there was most certainly a good hiding place somewhere in there.

And that's how Dorian arrived in front of the City Lord Mansion, again. Of course, he didn't enter it but instead walked around it, searching for a way in. But it seemed he had underestimated the builders and the security of this era.

No matter how much he searched, he couldn't find any opening. It was with disappointment that Dorian left the mansion. The only way in was the door, which was guarded by guards constantly.

So as the night fell, Dorian was still walking on the street. At first he didn't think it would be that bad, but as time passed the temperature became colder and colder, until a point Dorian felt like he arrived accidentally arrived in Siberia.

Dorian wished they had invented sewers, at least it would have kept him a little warmer.

In the end, Dorian was forced to sleep outside, well, not really sleep. It was so cold that Dorian couldn't even fall asleep. His clothes were great for daytime, but they didn't protect him in the least during the night.

Hours went by, and at some point of time Dorian started feeling sleepy. But he forced himself awake, he couldn't fall asleep. He knew that falling unconscious in the cold never was a good idea.

Finally, Dorian successfully passed the night, and watched as the first rays of the sun melted the layers of frost that appeared during in the night. Meanwhile, he finally realized how difficult it would really be to complete this perfect clear.
