Things were starting to move quickly. After a fun night with Hillary and Ingrid, I gave them some orders to come back next week. I told Ingrid one additional thing. I told her to summon the Duchess for me to see in two days. It was at her peril not to attend me then. Ingrid looked surprised but left with Hillary in the morning. Last night they both were exhausted and rested in my bed. I was smart to have a bed made when we moved into this place. I still had a short time to go before we left the city. Not much longer now. I always felt that itch to get out as soon as possible.
I stalled when I thought that last thought. Why did I want to leave so badly? Many things were happening, and I could turn this city into mine with another year within that. Instead, I am rushing and taking risks. All I knew was that I had to leave. I felt it in my bones. I thought about it more and more, going back to why I wanted to leave. The main reason is that I think the Demon lands would be a better launchpad for my gang to go international. It has a much larger landmass and more room to expand. It also has trade routes going to the most powerful nations on the continent. It made the Ideal spot to lay roots to grow from. I could make a pirate gang and find even an Island to start building on. This would allow me to make a professional corps.
That still did not explain why I needed to leave. Why I wanted out so fast, it was like something was just out of reach for me to grasp. I was a person who followed my instinct. That has saved me time and time again. I used it in a battle to protect myself and kill my foes. That was the only explanation for why I wanted to leave. It was subconscious. That probably means my Instinct is telling me to go. Not only that but to leave as soon as possible.
With this realization, I started to go over the things I knew about this city. The Nobility have mostly been hiding in the noble district. Most come out only to shop, but they only leave with retainers. The City Lord is up to something, and his daughter is looking to take over the family. The Gangs are all on edge, looking to take more territory. This was only sped up with me coming into the picture for part of it. Then there was the Necromancers guild. They have been purchasing bodies regardless of how much we fleece them. There is no way it is worth that much for some of the bodies. They pay without care, only giving a token protest.
I dressed and left the apartment thinking about these things. I was traveling down the street when I felt those eyes on me. This time I just moved. Those hateful eyes on me made me react, and I was instantly in action. The person ran, and I saw them. I caught up this time just as he was about to enter into a crowd.
"HEL-!" The man yelled as I grabbed him by the neck choking off the cry. I didn't give him time to do anything more as I hit the nerve on his neck, knocking him out. I pulled him into an alleyway as people started to turn. It was fantastic how fast my body could move in this world, I thought.
I realized I was in my public persona going to the Warehouse when I captured the guy. I thought for only a couple of seconds before I just hauled the guy onto my shoulder. I decided to walk through town like that—my reputation around paid dividends. I heard whispers about me being a slave trainer and that the man must have been a runaway. This seemed to be the prevailing thought as I still was one of the few Beast-kin among a crowd of Humans. This meant I was easy to recognize in areas I frequented. Soon and without any hassle, even from passing guards, I arrived at the warehouse. I smiled, seeing the young mistress waiting for me by a carriage. I stepped past her without regard and started to open the warehouse.
I placed the man in a spare cell and shackled this man to the wall. I decided to deal with him later. I moved towards the first cell with two women inside. They were both taller women around six feet tall. They both had wide hips and looked a little thin but not malnourished. The Slave master guild did not like to leave slaves dirty, not ready to sell. One was a tall blonde, while the other was a brunette. The Brunette had a breast size, I would guess, around the mid-C cup.
