A Business Deal Gone Wrong

As the sun set over New York City, the city transformed from a bustling metropolis to a place where the shadows dominated and the power shifted.

During the day, the city's order was maintained by the government, but as the night fell, the gangs took over. And among the gangs, the largest and the most powerful was led by none other than the Underworld Emperor of New York City, the infamous Kingpin.

Hades, the mysterious and successful stock trading master, was known for his unrivaled knowledge of the financial markets. He built a trading firm that quickly rose to the top, making him one of the most influential figures in the world of finance. However, there was more to Hades than meets the eye.

Hades was a man of few words, but his actions spoke louder than any words could. He was a master strategist, always one step ahead of the competition.

He was relentless in his pursuit of profit, always seeking new and innovative ways to stay ahead of the game. His unwavering determination and sharp mind earned him a reputation as one of the most feared traders in the world.

One of the secrets to Hades' success was his knowledge of the markets. He had an almost intuitive understanding of the markets, and he was always one step ahead of the curve.

He was able to predict market trends and capitalize on them, often making huge profits in a matter of hours. His competitors were in awe of his skills, and many sought to learn from him. All this happened after some of his memories relating to the financial markets from his old life returned.

But all of this also drew the attention of the city's greediest eyes, including Kingpin's. Hade's success had not gone unnoticed, and now Kingpin had summoned him for an important meeting.

Hades thus came to meet Kingpin. As he approached the front desk of Kingpin's headquarters, he couldn't help but notice the strange sight before him. Instead of a receptionist, a burly man dressed in a black suit and sunglasses stood guard.

"Hello, this is Hades. Inform your boss that I have come over to discuss important business," Hades said, his voice filled with power and authority.

"I see. You can go straight to the end and then go in," the man replied with a scowl before closing his mouth and turning away.

Hades smiled at the man's attitude, knowing that he was dealing with someone with a VIP reservation in hell. He made his way to the designated place and entered, ready to face the Underworld Emperor.

As he entered the room, he was struck by the opulence of the place. The walls were adorned with gold-plated accents, and the floor was plush red. In the center of the room stood a massive desk, behind which sat the imposing figure of Kingpin himself, surrounded by his henchmen, armed with guns.

Kingpin was a man of immense power, both physical and political. He was a man who commanded respect, and his piercing gaze was enough to make even the bravest of mortals tremble.

But Hades is not easily intimidated. He approaches King Pin confidently, his eyes gleaming with power. As confident as ever, he sat across Kingpin's sofa, relaxed without a care in the world. The henchmen nor the guns didn't bother him even one bit.

Hades recognized Bullseye among those guys. Noticing Hade's gaze, Bullseye scorned him. But hades gave him a playful smile. But a red flame lit up in his eye for a split second. Bullseye overlooked that.

Hades sat across from Kingpin in his dark, ominous office, a look of amusement playing on his face. Kingpin leaned forward, his beady eyes piercing through the shadows.

"Good evening, Hades," Kingpin said, his voice deep and menacing, echoing through the room. He leaned back in his leather chair, steepling his fingers in front of him.

"Good evening, Kingpin," Hades replied, his voice steady and firm. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on the polished wooden table.

"So, Hades, I've been hearing great things about your trading firm," Kingpin said, his voice dripping with honeyed poison. He shot a sly grin toward Hades.

"It isn't much. But a man has to do what he needs to do, right, Kingpin?" Hades said with a wry smile, his piercing green eyes glinting with amusement.

"Yeah, you're right," Kingpin replied, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

"So, what about my investment firm? Do you want to become a shareholder or just want to have us manage your investments?" Hades asked, his tone business-like.

"Neither. I have something else in mind," Kingpin said, his grin widening.

Hades raised an eyebrow, his expression unchanging. "An offer?"

"Yes," Kingpin said, his eyes gleaming with greed.

"Oh, do tell," Hades said, his tone curious.

"I'd like to purchase your firm," Kingpin said, dripping with condescension.

Hades leaned back in his chair, his eyes narrowed. "My firm is worth 100 billion dollars. Do you have the capability to pay for that?"

"Oh, such a measly amount," Kingpin said with a dismissive wave. "Bullseye, bring the cash!"

"As you wish, boss," Bullseye replied, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He strode into a back room and emerged with a large, black suitcase.

"Are you sure that suitcase can hold 100 billion, Kingpin?" Hades asked with a smirk, his eyes glinting with amusement.

"Oh, 100 billion? No, no, Hades. I have a better deal for you," Kingpin said, his grin widening.

"Oh, do tell," Hades said, his tone intrigued.

"Here is 10 million dollars. Take it and enjoy it with your beautiful wife," Kingpin said as he opened the suitcase and showed Hades the stacks of cash. His eyes filled with desire and lust when he spoke about Hades' wife.

Hades leaned back in his chair, his eyes narrowed. "I'm afraid I must decline your offer, Kingpin."

Kingpin's grin faded, replaced by a look of anger. "Are you sure about that, Hades? Because I have ways of making people change their minds." His words were spoken with a menacing undercurrent.

Hades leaned forward, his voice cold and calculating. "And what exactly do you have in mind?"

Kingpin leaned forward, his bulk towering over Hades. A sly grin spread across his face as he spoke, "You won't be leaving here alive if you don't cooperate, my dear Hades."

Hades raised an eyebrow, his tone skeptical. "Oh really?" he drawled.

Kingpin's grin grew wider. "Certainly. And I'll also enjoy your wife, Hela, was it?" he said, turning to Bullseye with a smirk.

Bullseye's eyes gleamed with sadistic glee as he replied, "Yes, boss."

Suddenly, the sunglasses Hades wore melted off, revealing eyes that had transformed into deep pools of darkness. Swirling within these pools was the fiery inferno of the underworld, a reflection of the immense power Hades possessed.

Kingpin and his minions gaped in terror as they beheld the spirits of the damned, their tormented screams echoing within the blackness of Hades' gaze. The air grew thick with the smell of brimstone, and the ground shook with the power of the lord of the dead.

Kingpin and his men stumbled backward, tripping over one another as they tried to flee from the wrath of Hades. But the lord of the underworld was not so easily deterred.

With a flick of his wrist, he summoned forth a horde of dark and demonic creatures of hell, their razor-sharp claws glinting in the flickering light of the abyssal flames.

The demons descended upon Kingpin and his gang, their howls of rage drowning out the pitiful cries of their prey. The men fought back with all their might, wielding their weapons with a desperation born of fear.

But they were no match for the minions of Hades. One by one, they were dragged down into the fiery depths, their bodies consumed by the ravenous flames.

Kingpin, however, was made of stronger stuff. He stood his ground, bellowing defiantly at Hades as he drew his weapon. With a fearless grin, he lunged forward, his blade flashing through the air as he sought to bring down the lord of the dead.

Hades loomed over him, his eyes blazing with the fury of a thousand suns. He reached down, his hand closing around Kingpin's throat as he lifted the man into the air.

"Kingpin, I really didn't want to have to resort to this," Hades growled, his voice echoing throughout the room.

"But you brought this upon yourself. Threatening my wife? That was a grave mistake."

Kingpin gasped for air, desperately trying to loosen the grip around his neck. But it was no use. He was powerless against the god of the underworld.

"Do you have any final words?" Hades asked, his voice dripping with disdain.

Kingpin managed to croak out a few desperate words, "Please, mercy! I'll never cross you again, I swear it!"

Hades simply sneered in response, "I'm afraid it's too late. You've sealed your own fate."

With a flick of his wrist, Hades sent Kingpin hurtling down into the abyss, where he would join the endless sea of lost souls, forever trapped in the underworld.

As Kingpin disappeared from sight, the demons of Hades dispersed, returning to their fiery domain to await the following command of their master.
