Apocalypse Regression's

Making Deal?

Black Panther, a group of soldiers and policemen. They are people who do not like the rules made by the government, even rejecting it hard.

If you look around, they look like Ark. They want people who do not deserve to be removed from their posts.

Even their final goal is the same. Destroy old and make new rules. It fits in Ark style. However ...

There's a reason why Black Panther is one of the three groups that Ark hates in this city.

They are not pure!

Ark does not deny that some members of Black Panther have heroic souls. They want to build a better world. However, such people are only partial.

In fact, only a small part.

Most members of the group were filled in by people who did not get what they wanted in the Imperial Tiger. They feel dissatisfied with what they get, so they want to take more.

Similar to the people who were in the top ranks of the Imperial Tiger!

Of course, there's a reason Ark is convinced of that. After all, the young man now known as Hades used to be one of the higher-ups in Black Panther in his previous life!

Sticking to the Imperial Tiger, disappointed and then leaving. Thinking that Black Panther is a people with good intentions, join forces and help the rebellion. But the result is the same.

Not much cleaner than before!

That was why he no longer thought of joining a group. Keep walking on your own path. Meet and part with great people.

Join the defense of mankind in many battles as Ark, not a member of group A, B, or C.

The one who made many groups uncomfortable because he "could" stand up, even going further with his own two feet.

As Ark sank into unpleasant memories, Joseph's voice was heard again.

"So .. can we talk for a minute, Mr Hades?"

Hearing the question, Ark looked towards Joseph. He did not immediately reply, but just stared at the many beaked man who had that villain-like appearance.

'Joseph, huh? A typical man is touted as one who supports humanity from within the shadows.'

Ark himself did not really know Joseph. After all, when he had joined the Black Panther group, the man had died. However, according to the story, many people say that Joseph is a man with a cold face and a rude attitude, but has a soft heart.

Not to mention, the reason Ark used to find information about Joseph was ...

"Is there a man named Siegfried in your army, Mr Joseph?"

Hearing Ark ask back, Joseph was surprised. He was somewhat dissatisfied with the attitude of the masked figure in front of him, but still remembered a few figures in his mind.

At that moment, Joseph remembered the figure of a kind, naive, and stupid young man. Somehow the young man used to be a soldier. But Joseph several times helped the young man because it is not the heart that people have a clean heart like it must be polluted with the dirtiness of the world.

"Did the boy make trouble with you, Mr Hades?

Siegfried is just a naive young man and always speaks for what he is. That's why he doesn't have any friends. As its leader, I'm sorry that the boy made trouble with you.

By the way, can we talk for a second?"

"..."

Looking towards Joseph, Ark sighed. As expected, Siegfried had a past like this.

'Naive and honest, huh? To me .. he's just a crazy guy who lives by swinging his sword to kill and keep killing.

He almost chopped off my head a few times. What a crazy and troublesome man.'

Siegfried, The Dragon Slayer. One of the men who fought him several times in his previous life. The one who can fight with a draw with Ark. The kind of fighter he didn't want to fight because it was so troublesome.

Just then, a thought came to Ark's mind.

'Since Siegfried lost the start and couldn't fight properly, wouldn't it be better to kill him before he grew up?

After all, he was a type of creature like a cockroach when it had grown. Very disturbing and difficult to die despite being hit many times.'

When Ark thought the idea was feasible, Joseph's voice came back.

"Should we go somewhere else, Mr Hades?"

Hearing that question, Ark shook his head.

"You can say it here, Mr. Joseph."

Joseph stunned. He looked at the eyes behind the mask that were staring at him indifferently. In the end, the middle-aged man sighed and explained.

"You're acting mysterious."

Ark answered flatly, no longer saying politely. Raising his shoulders, he continued.

"Lead the way."

Joseph thought that the arrogant young man in front of him would refuse his request. But who would have thought, it still wants to listen to his request.

'Could he have the same thoughts as Black Panther so not have any rejections?'

Thinking that, Joseph nodded in satisfaction.

If Ark had known what the man was thinking, he would have said that Joseph thought too much.

The two of them then went towards one of the buildings and climbed to a higher place.

"So, what do you want to ask, Mr Joseph?"

Joseph smiled when he heard Ark's question.

"You should know the reason why I met you, Mr. Hades."

"Invitation to join Black Panther."

Ark said in a lazy tone. Joseph nodded when he heard Ark's words.

"You must know my answer, Mr. Joseph. I-i refused.

As I have often said. Dark Caravan is a merchant. We are neutral. Not so concerned with the feud between groups.

As long as you want to trade and are able to pay, we will trade with you without discriminating. Black Panther, Imperial Tiger, Silver Cross, or other groups. We can trade with all of them."

Hearing Ark's reply, Joseph nodded. He actually knew the young man's answer in front of him. Merely, the middle-aged man still wanted to try.

"That's why I met you, Mr. Hades. We, Black Panther want to trade with you."

"Hou .. interesting." Ark stroking chin. "If you want to trade basic necessities, I can prepare a suitable route. We can trade once a week. You know what we want, don't you?"

"Of course we know. Besides, you also want to buy some important information from you."

"Say."

Gazing towards the sky, Ark relaxed back.

"We want to buy more complete information about corn storage. Be it information about the building, even a way to break into and steal it."

"Why do you think I'd sell something as important as that instead of taking it myself?"

Ark raised his eyebrows, saying in an indifferent tone.

"First, the Dark Caravan found it troublesome. It doesn't match the cost of work, so you don't take it.

Second, the Dark Caravan had a sufficient supply. This can be seen clearly because you sell food supplies, so that pile of sacks filled with corn is not that attractive in your eyes."

Joseph looked at the figure of Ark who was standing on his back. His eyes narrowed. The middle-aged man then said again.

"In addition, did not you yourself say ...

As long as the price is right, you will make the trade. Even if you are asked to infiltrate and kill the Imperial Tiger elders.

So just say ... what price do we have to pay to make this trade?!"

Hearing that, Ark's body trembled slightly. He suddenly looked up.

"Gd ... Interesting ... Really interesting!"

Ark turned around, staring at Joseph with a cold gaze. Making a "money" mark with his finger, the young man said.

"Of course you can. But I must remind ..."

Ark looked right into Joseph's eyes.

"It's gonna be expensive, you know."
