The City of Sin was divided into three areas.

The Outer Area, The Inner Area and The Central Area.

Ever since Corey appeared in The City of Sin, he had not gone out of his house and neither had he seen the situation of the Outer Area.

Some might say it would be more wise for him to stay in his residence and only come out when he had to fight in the Amphitheatre.

Their reason for saying that would be based on E-Underworld which granted him the ability to purchase whatever he wanted.

Also, some would also say that staying in his house was safer since an event could occur anytime he went out which could lead him to annoying, dangerous or cliché situations.

But did Corey care about encountering the situations as mentioned above?

Yes.

Yes he definitely did.

If possible, Corey would not want to be put into annoying dangerous cliché situations unless there was something of value to be earned from it.

Although Corey did not want to be put into annoying dangerous cliché situations, there were a few things Corey knew, which were:

First, he did not want to be ignorant about the situation of the Outer Area of the City of Sin.

Some would say ignorance was bliss but in a place like the Underworld, once ignorance could end up killing them and Corey definitely did not want to end up with such a fate just because he was ignorant.

The second was that, Corey knew that he could not gain experience just from staying inside his house.

Corey did not mean battle experience, he meant experience concerning things related to life in general.

And let's just say that, as Corey walked with his left hand placed in front of his abdomen and a translucent screen hovering above the Watch of the Underworld, Corey was sort of glad that he decided to go out of his house since he could observe the situation of the Outer Area of the City of Sin.

And what did Corey observe?action

Mainly one thing. Which was:

The outer area was a lawless place.

Bang!

"Hahahaha!"

Corey heard the sound of a gunshot and when he turned to his right, he saw two men standing in front of an extremely skinny man who was holding his bleeding stomach with his back placed against the door of a home.

"Did you think you could run away from us?"

The man holding the gun spoke with malice in his tone as he looked at the bleeding man who had a fearful expression on his emaciated face.

"Ple- Please. Please don't kill me. I'll pay for the drugs, I'll pay. I'll sell one of my body parts to pay for it so please don't kill me."

The bleeding man pleaded with a fearful expression but the two man just laughed with disdain and mockery.

"Can you believe this fucker man. He says he's going to sell one of his body parts to pay for the drugs."

The man holding a gun spoke with extreme mockery and contempt in his voice.

Bam

The other kicked the bleeding man in the face causing him to spit out a few broken teeth which were covered in blood

"Fucker's been owing us for like a week now. Why didn't he sell his body part before, why is he selling it now?"

Ptui

The other man not holding a gun spat on the face of the bleeding man after speaking.

The bleeding man dared not to do show an ounce of defiance as the spit landed on his face. He just hoped this men would have mercy on him or that somebody would come to save him.'If I can start all over I'll never take drugs again.'

The bleeding man thought with immense regret.

'Can somebody save me?'

The bleeding man thought as he looked at the floor, but just as he had this thought, he heard a clicking sound and when he looked up, he saw the gun of the devils before him pointed at his face.

"Please."

The bleeding man pleaded and the man with the gun chuckled.

"Pleeaase."

"Hahahaha."

The man with the gun repeated the words of the bleeding man with mockery and his partner laughed madly.

Seconds later, the laughter died down and the man with the gun looked at the bleeding man with a small smile.

"We've decided that we can sell all your body parts for a much better price, so why not take all instead of just one."

Hearing the words of the man with the gun, the eyes of the bleeding man widened in fear. His lips parted open, wanting to beg once again, but before he could,

Bang!

A bullet hole appeared in his forehead and a second later his head slanted to the side with the bleeding man's eyes wide open.

"Next time pay up for the drugs on time. We hate debtors."

The man with the gun spoke with a cold tone and just as he spoke, he received a smack to the back of his head.

"Why did you shoot him in the head. You damaged the brain you idiot."

The partner spoke with an upset tone and the man with the gun rubbed his head and frowned

.

"How did you now expect me to kill him with one shot?"

The man with the gun replied and his partner smacked his head again.

"I don't know. But you know that there are some people that would have bought his intact brain for a lot of value points."

The partner spoke with a frustrated tone and the man with the gun wanted to speak but he received another smack to the head.

Corey who was some meters away from the duo had an indifferent expression as he watched everything that happened.

His reason for not helping the bleeding man?

Cause he didn't care and neither did he want to.

Seeing the duo argue, Corey looked at the translucent screen before him which was actually a map that was directing him to the library in the Outer Area.

A few seconds later, Corey looked away from the map and walked in another direction.

As he walked to the library he saw various scenes on the streets of the Outer Area.

There were some killings, some were having sex in not so hidden places, some looked homeless with sunken eyes and their bodies looking more like bones.

Also, some were selling drugs out in the open while some were selling them in hidden corners.

There were also a few that tried to pick a fight with Corey, but when he released a bit of his killing intent, they scurried away in fear.

He even encountered a car chase between two gang-like groups which killed around four people during the chase.

Corey spent around 45 minutes of walking before he reached the library.

The library was not beautiful and neither was it large. It just looked like a slightly big bungalow with a plaque at the top of the door which contained the writing, Library.Corey pressed the power button of the Watch of the Underworld, turning it off, and a second later, he walked to the library.

Reaching the doors of the library, Corey opened it and when he did, a bell chime resounded in the building.

"Hmm."

A soft sound reached Corey's ears just as the bell chime resounded. Corey turned to his left and there he saw a beautiful woman sitting behind what seemed like a receptionist desk.

The woman, who was holding a book in her left hand was also wearing a black t-shirt which had the image of a hand holding a planet.

At the top right side of her t-shirt was a tag which had the words, 'Librarian'.

On the top left side of the t-shirt were three black stars and when Corey saw it, he raised his brows slightly.

'A three star Underworld Official?'

Corey thought and just as he had this thought, the librarian spoke.

"Well this is surprising. I rarely get customers since this is the Outer Area."

The librarian said as she looked at Corey with a slightly surprised expression. She stared at Corey's face for a few seconds before her eyes moved to his large biceps.

"Are there rules I need to know before I look for what I want?"

Ignoring the librarian's slightly long stare, Corey spoke with a calm expression and tone.

The librarian appeared to be taken aback at first, then she regained her composure and replied with a soft clear of her throat:

"Just make sure you don't damage the book or there'd be consequences."

"Also, every book has it's price, so choose the book or books you want, bring them here and you can rent them for a maximum of one week."

The librarian spoke and Corey nodded softly.

"What happens if I don't return the book in one week?"

Hearing Corey's question, the librarian smiled and a second later, she replied.

"You'll have to experience it to know. As they say, experience is the best teacher."

With a slight chuckle in her tone, she spoke and Corey raised his brows slightly.

He looked behind him which had numerous bookshelves.

"I can decide to read the books here right?"

He asked and the librarian raised her brows.

"You can, but if you open a book for more than ten seconds then you'll have to pay for the book.

If you think you can hide or you think I wouldn't know that you've opened a book for more than ten seconds then just know that there are cameras in the library."

The woman spoke with her arms folded and Corey hearing her words raised his brows.

"Why the rule about payment for opening a book for more than ten seconds?"

Corey asked with genuine curiosity since he had never heard of such a rule before.

"There are some people that have photographic memories so we used this as a preventive measure."

The woman replied and Corey had a slightly confused expression.

'Why not just prevent people from opening the books at all.'

Corey thought but decided not to ask.

"Thanks for the information. I'll be going now."

Corey said and without waiting for the librarian's reply, he walked to the bookshelves.

The librarian looked at Corey's back for a few seconds before she picked up her book and continued reading.

Meanwhile Corey,

'Time to do your thing Record.'

Corey thought and his left eye changed for a second before it went back to normal.
