”It's called the Underground World for a reason. Extreme poverty, criminals, black market dealings, and everything else is literally held here.” Sam said as he walked through avoiding almost everyone.

”Why hasn't the government closed this place yet?” Maria asked him as she couldn't understand why such a chaotic and evil place could exist.

”Because the government also has use for the Underground World. They made a treaty with the Underground World to do the dirty deeds for them.” Sam explained calmly.

”The government would really stoop that low?” Maria muttered.

”They would, they have to keep a good reputation in front of the civilians. So they make the others do the massacres. Of course, they pay, which they basically just buy assassins to do the job.” Sam replied to her.

”Why would they need to kill people? I don't get it, they only need to kill people that are evil right? So you don't need to hire any of these people.” Maria retorted.

”Maria don't forget, we aren't the only kingdom. There are many more surrounding us. Sometimes these black market dealings can help us gain weapons and intelligence. The Underground World is really useful for us.” Sam said.

”Even my father has dabbled within the Underground World before. He also sometimes sells stuff here for money and buy weapons here too.” Sam added.

”But, even if the government had allowed this. Wouldn't there be many who would try to get rid of the Underground World despite the treaty?” Maria asked him.

”Doesn't matter, anyone who has ever tried is already dead. They cannot beat the Underground World. It is too strong for them.” Sam said.

”Even stronger than Sylvie?” Maria muttered.
