8 Chapter 8 - Another Day

Voice is gone...it was suspicious, but at least it was someone I could talk to.... How many years has it been since I had someone who I could talk with? Well, at least I didn't get too attached.

Lol, tears are in my eyes again, you know what happens every time, stop dilly dallying...it's time to move on.

...it's been hours, and I've been walking to their most dangerous area now, thanks to the memories of those people, I can understand people, and read the signs. It's gonna make it easier for me, but I ain't happy, cause these stupid organizations are close knit.

Meaning they don't allow outsiders, the turf wars in the city are massive. Some in my last world are pretty sure of themselves, so as long as you lived in their neighborhood, and looked on them for favor, they'd let you do some small jobs for them.

Sadly, I wasn't good with my hands, or as innovative in chemicals. I'm a good hustler, but I had been involved too long, they didn't trust me. Now I have to try, and see how far my speech skills can take me, cause trying to live decently in this city is an utter waste of time.

From their memories, the place is soaked in monopolies, and unless you can butter up low level politicians, or employees with powerful connections, you won't be able to get anywhere. That leaves small jobs, but the population ensures high competition, and low wage.

Damn bastards made it illegal to grow your own farms in the city without permit, and any innovation is squashed as a threat to their cash flow. The homeless, and sick make an excuse for their campaigns, all as they make it worse for people to live here, and all in order to ensure they can buy properties at a cheap price for their projects.

The darkest parts of the city make sure to kill as many politicians, and employees as they can, but the damn replacements are to common, the damn higher ups even root for their employees to die after a month of work.

Luckily they can't fire most of their employees, cause any form of automation, usually pisses off the other politicians that work with unions. So they themselves get their families in danger, and end up forced to watch as their families bodies are played with before, during, and after they're killed.

I could use my power, but the money is all electronic, and if I use the money I took early in the day from that cuck, they'd track me down easily. Not to mention, most people in this damn place should have a power, I just got lucky earlier. So for now, I need to hide in the region, kill, and feed on their souls, and become stronger.

The city is big, big enough to fit millions of people, and still have enough space for millions more. I don't really need to be afraid of the cops here, cause it's too easy to get lost, and the cameras maintenance has gone down since the fat pig in charge doesn't give a shit for the lower level populations. There's a city within the city, and that's where I will grow.

After, I'll start to feed on the more powerful people, and once I finish, I'll try to see if I can destroy this place. I may not be a good person, but I sure as hell, am gonna abuse this power. I start to grin, cause I can see a group of kids in the distance that ran into an alley chasing a little kid.

I see blood, and the other kids with horns are laughing. There's a little girl nearby on the floor, who looks like she died from blood loss, and the mother is being beaten to death by the other kids.

The people nearby are running away from the scene, so I use my power to take their souls. I've gotten better at using it, and don't need to imagine it as much now. I keep their souls by my side, and go after the rest. The mother is just laying there crying as her daughters dead.

I quickly decapitate the rest of the children, and take their souls as well. The kid who's running away heard the blood splashing, and looks back. He's crying, and sees me. He thanks me, and runs back to his mother. He somehow manages to get her to take the daughter, and they leave.

I look at the souls of the kids, rip everything I can from some of them, and run away from the scene after they're eaten.

The rest of the souls will be my ticket for more power, I have to hurry while I still can. Cause as long as the information they have is legit, I can gather a feast to eat.
