Blaze Deception: A Villain in a Hero's Disguise

ON HIATUS!!! THE AUTHOR CAN'T UPDATE IT FOR NOW. All I wanted was a simple life: love, shelter, food, my hobby of motorcycling. But fate granted me wealth and power, shackling my freedom. Forced into a life of social expectations and heir training, I obeyed for my family's honor and my love for them as Honor and Pride were unshaken pillars of my family. Despite not being strict, they didn't mess around with traditions. To me, they were my heroes, pillars of kindness. Yet the very target of their kindness, the people they saved and protected, became the ones who burned them to their death. Betrayal tore them from me, shattering the good heart they cultivated in me and plunging me into darkness. Only one question left: What do I do!? Revenge!! That's what my heart shouted at me as my heart turned cold. Can I reclaim the heroism they instilled in me, or am I destined to become the villain that grew within me? __________ This novel might have slower or faster pacing in some places. The first volume focuses more on the MC's backstory. The villain's acts and deceptions will be in the second volume. Regarding romance, I haven't added a tag yet. Let's see how the story goes and whether there's a need for romance. I'm still new to writing, so please bear with me. Tell me your suggestions via comments. Thank you!

Black Market

In the streets where shadows linger and whispers carry weight, there's a place folks call the black market. It's where things happen outside the rules, where people buy and sell stuff they shouldn't.

You see, it's not like the regular market where you buy groceries or clothes. It's more like a secret club for buying things that are illegal or hard to find.

Now, dealing in the black market can be risky business. You never know who you're dealing with, and if the law catches wind of your dealings, well, let's just say it's trouble with a capital T.

But despite the risks, folks keep coming back. Why? Because the black market offers things you can't get anywhere else, things that regular stores don't sell, like illegal drugs, stolen goods, or even rare artifacts.

The benefits? Well, for some, it's the thrill of getting something forbidden. For others, it's about making a quick buck, selling goods at inflated prices because they're hard to come by.

But there are downsides too. It's not a friendly place. You've got to watch your back because you never know who's out to get you or if the cops are closing in.

Now, taking charge of the black market? That's a whole other story. It's like becoming the king of a hidden kingdom, where power is everything and trust is scarce.

You've got to be smart, know the right people, and have a knack for making deals that benefit you and keep the others in line.

Responsibilities? Well, they're not for the faint of heart.

You've got to keep the peace among rival factions, make sure deals go down smoothly, and handle any trouble that comes your way. It's a lot of stress, but the rewards can be sweet if you play your cards right.

As for who deals in the black market?

It's a mixed bag. You've got your small-time hustlers looking to make a quick buck, your seasoned veterans who know the ins and outs, and even some folks who stumbled into it by accident and got sucked in by the allure of easy money.

Transactions? Oh, they run the gamut. From simple drug deals to selling stolen goods, to smuggling contraband across borders, the black market is like a twisted bazaar where anything goes if you've got the guts to pull it off.

Remember, every deal comes with a price, and in the black market, that price can be higher than you ever imagined.

Because the black market holds even darker secrets. Among the hidden deals and whispered promises, there are also assassins. They're like silent ghosts, moving in the shadows, taking contracts to end lives for the right price.

In this secret world, there's also a group called the Protector Agency. This is where Greg and Mr. Brandon belong to.

They're supposed to keep things in check, but some say they're just as shady as the rest. They might be keeping order, or they might be part of the problem.

But that doesn't matter to me. Cause this time I plan to take control of this Black Market.

My eyes were fixed on the monitors while my hands were fast tapping on the keyboard.

I watched as the codes of strings floated on the screen until an image of General Lizandro sitting in his office located in Sparks Country's Military Base appeared on my monitor.

Who would have thought that the very Chief of Defense of the country was the Supremo of the Black Market? While the military base was their hideout.

No wonder the government was having a hard time eradicating this black market.

While being immersed in making plans...

"Bro" Vince suddenly called out to me which shocked the hell out of me.

"You! Can you at least make a sound when you walk?" I told him in a sharp tone while holding my temple, trying to ease my furrowed brows.

"I've been calling out to you several times now but you're too focused that you didn't hear me." He said hesitantly.

"What do you want to tell me? Make sure it is something important." I said while staring at him annoyingly.

"Hmm... I just want to ask about the launching of our new product in InfernoTech Solutions. When is the best time for it?"

"Right, the product launch," I muttered, my mind still buzzing with thoughts of the black market and the tangled web of power and deceit.

"We need to make sure it's timed perfectly. Let's aim for next week. We'll capitalize on the market trends and make a big splash."

Vince nodded eagerly, his eyes alight with excitement at the prospect of launching our latest innovation into the world. "Sounds good to me. I'll start coordinating with the team and get everything in place."

As he turned to leave, I couldn't help but chuckle, since when did Vince become a money grubber?

As I stared at the monitors, the image of General Lizandro still fresh in my mind, I knew taking control of the black market required serious planning. It wasn't going to be easy, but I was determined.

As I sat in front of the glowing screens, my eyes flickered with determination. "Alright, time to dive deep," I muttered to myself, fingers poised over the keyboard.

I began my search, starting with the usual suspects. Forums, chat rooms, and shady websites lit up the screen as I delved into the darkest corners of the internet.

"Let's see what secrets you're hiding," I murmured, clicking through pages of encrypted messages and coded discussions.

Suddenly, a glimmer of something caught my eye – a whispered rumor, barely a whisper in the digital cacophony.

"There," I whispered triumphantly, my heart racing with anticipation. It was just a fragment, a hint of something bigger, but it was enough to set me on the trail.

Step by step, I figured out how the black market worked. I looked into secret deals and hidden meetings, connecting the dots to understand the underground world hiding in the shadows.

But the deeper I dug, the more tangled the web became. False leads and dead ends taunted me at every turn, testing my resolve with each passing moment.

"Stay focused," I reminded myself, pushing forward with renewed determination.

Then, when I felt like giving up, something amazing happened. I found a small talk in the middle of all the chatter. It pointed me to a secret place online where the black market was controlled.

I clicked around cautiously, getting closer to the main part of the black market online. Finally, I found it – a lot of secrets were there, waiting for me.
