Chapter 16

A man can be seen walking toward a building in a poor area of New York, that man is Jack, and he is in the middle of completing his first mission as a mercenary.

' The building it's this one, Weasel said he should be on the last floor, easily accessible through the fire escape stairs, open the window with the Spanish flag sticker.'

I look around to see if there was anyone, then I close my eyes and focus on my smell, and then my hearing when I don't sense anyone I activate Shadow Veil and I start going up the ladders finally reaching the window of Tomàs.

I equip my gloves and then try to see if the window is locked, and to my luck, it isn't, so I take out the lockpicking instruments I had bought from Weasel, check if there is anyone inside or if anyone can hear me by knocking on the window, and when I don't see any reaction, I start using the locking picking tools, gaining a lockpicking skill and it straight going to level 17, helped.

In a minute I opened the window and got inside, I didn't drop down though, I first lowered my right foot and let it touch the ground, then put the other, and I finally slowly close the window.

Before moving forward, I take a look at the house, and though it wasn't comparable to my previous house, it was still a rundown house of what looked like 4 members family, the dad Tomàs, the mother, the son, and the daughter.

I ignore the existence of such people, my target is the father, and as much as this may scare the family, I need to do this for my survival.

I slowly move around the house, searching for my target, and this time luck was on my side.

I found him looking at the turn-off television, completely in his world, with dozens of bills to pay right in front of him.

I swing a fist, with not my full force, against the back of their head of Tomàs, knocking him out.

The man instantly gets knocked out, giving me time, to rope his hands, and feet, and put tape on his mouth.

I put him on the ground, I then take out my knife, and without hesitation remove one of his nails in an instant.

He immediately woke up, trying to scream in pain, only to be blocked by the tape.

Using a trick I had discovered on the way here, I transform my voice into a deeper one, not leaving any chance to release any tracks to find out it was me, the name of the spell is Voice Alteration, and it let me change my voice by 10% adds a 10% every level, it currently is at level 4, since I trained with it a little, and it costs 10 MP/s.

" Mister Wilson, you know why I am here right?" I said while removing another nail.

He trashes around trying to remove the ropes, but apart from the being very tight, I am also holding them with telekinesis.

" People should pay their debts." And removed another nail.

He was about to faint from the pain, but before he could I trow a fast punch in his stomach, making him split open his eyes.

" You are one of those right?" I said while lowering my voice as possible, and adding a type of growl to it, which, combined with my emotionless eyes, made me gain a level of Intimidation.

Instead of trying to free himself he looks at me and nods furiously.

" Good." And removed another nail.

" Because, if you weren't I wouldn't just remove your nails, I wouldn't just hurt you, I would also go for them."

This time his eyes filled with fear, he understood the message, pay Fisk, or your family will be next.

" I think that is convincing enough right?" I said, slowly moving the knife to remove the last nail of his right hand.

He tries to remove my hand from my grasp, which I let him do, and nods as fast as humanly possible, while tears start to fall from his eyes, and snots forms on his nose.

" Perfect," I said, and then I punched him in the face breaking his nose and making him faint.

I then take out the disposable phone I had bought from Weasle and dial the number for an ambulance.

" 911 How can we help you?"

" Ah yes, I think someone broke into the apartment above mine."

"Your current location and the number of the room?"

" I am the xxxxx, the floor is the last one, and the number of the room is xx."

" We will reach the area in five minutes."

The phone call then ended, and I destroyed the phone by stepping on it and putting it inside the phone.

I then reactivated Shadow Veil, search for any possible cameras inside the house, which took 1 minute, take a picture with my phone of the body of Tomàs, and then head outside, running away from the area,

Before going back to the Deadpool I waited half an hour, and when I arrived, this time the guy outside didn't stop me, actually scared of me.

I got inside, went straight for the counter, and they were waiting for me at the counter is Weasle.

" You chickened out right?"

Instead of answering him I take out my phone and showed him the photo.

"Damn, first mission and you went directly for the nails? I don't know if I should call you prodigy or monster."

"I prefer prodigy," I said while sitting down on the counter.

" Then your codename from now on will be monster." He said clearly ignoring my previous answer.

" My reward?"

" Not even a drink?"

" Sure."( before anyone says anything, they don't know he is underage for drinking, and even if they knew, I don't think that in a place like that they would care.
