"Boss, boss!"

"F**k, boss, are you okay?"

"Quick, quick, don't be so stunned! Give the boss two injections of powerful testosterone quickly! Didn't you see the boss foaming at the mouth?"

While most of the bar patrons were cheering excitedly, a group of members from the Beast Gang rushed forward to help Delais. After administering two powerful testosterone injections, Delais, who had been rolling his eyes, shivered for a while and regained consciousness.

"Just...what happened just now?"

These were the first words Delais uttered after regaining consciousness.

"Boss, I...we don't know either."

Greli clutched his stomach and said with an embarrassed look: "When I came to my senses, you...you had already collapsed."

"F**k..."

The corner of Delais's mouth twitched as he felt like he might die from embarrassment.

"Hey, are you dead?"

At this moment, Rogge walked over, looking down at Delais on the ground. He said coolly: "If you're still alive, take your people and get out of here. The bar needs to continue business."

Delais's face flickered for a while, and he could only grit his teeth and begrudgingly reply: "Let's go back!"

His younger brother quickly helped him up, and they both turned to leave the bar.

"Hey, wait!"

At that moment, David called out from behind, reminding: "Did you forget something?"

Delais was startled when he heard this and turned back to look at David, his cheeks twitching once again. "What else do you want, kid?"

While the onlookers were still debating whether David had some special implant, Delais, the person involved, knew the truth all too well.

David had been standing right in front of him at that moment, and Delais was now 100% sure that David didn't have any prosthetic body!

In other words, the kid in front of him had some sort of mysterious power that allowed him to explode with such incredible strength!

If Delais could choose again, he would never have messed with David, and in fact, anyone from the Dragon Kingdom.

That mysterious power was terrifying!

"I don't want anything," David shrugged, his tone calm. "Before the duel, you mentioned that if you lost, you'd compensate for the bar's maintenance."

Delais's face turned as red as fried pork liver as he realized what was happening. Even a fool could understand that David was here to collect money!

Having lost the duel and suffered injuries, Delais knew that he had to pay up. There was no way out.

He glanced at his younger brother, signaling him to make the payment. The younger brother quickly approached to scan the bank account.

Rogge, however, shook his head and patted David's shoulder. "You don't need to pay me, just transfer it to David. Consider it a bounty for winning the duel."

Clearly, David had successfully proved himself in front of Rogge.

David, without hesitation, pulled out his phone and displayed his bank account QR code. "Scan the code and transfer the money."

The Beast Gang members dared not protest.

Didi——!

The prosthetic eye scanned the code, and a moment later, a collection prompt popped up: Arasaka Bank prompt: Your electronic account received 20,000 euros at 23:20, balance: 24,960.2 euros. Thank you for using this electronic bank!

It was a windfall from heaven!

A single duel earned David a crazy 20,000 euros! That was equivalent to several years of hard work!

If David continued at this rate, collecting the 200,000 euros for Frog Cub's third trip would be within reach.

"Let's go!"

After the payment was made, Delais urged his younger brother to leave, clearly eager to escape from this humiliating situation.

In addition to the 20,000 euros David had just received, Delais had also lost tens of thousands in gambling during the duel.

He'd spent money, only to be left with pain and frustration. It was a shameful day for Delais.

Looking at the backs of the Beast Gang leaving, Rogge turned to David and smiled, clearly impressed. "You're young, energetic, and powerful. I don't remember seeing someone like you at my bar before."

"Uh, boss, the bar didn't have enough staff before, so I asked David to work part-time here," Claire quickly stepped forward and explained. "You've been busy, so I didn't have the chance to report this to you."

"Ah, I see," Rogge nodded thoughtfully, then turned to David with a warm smile. "David, from now on, you'll be my right-hand man at the bar."

"While I'm away, you can help me take care of the place. Got it?"

"Yes, boss!"

David immediately nodded in agreement.

Anyone who understood the situation could tell that Rogge had not only accepted David as a regular employee but also promoted him to an important position at the Afterlife Bar!

"Alright, David, take a break now and get ready for work later. The party is just getting started."

Rogge nodded appreciatively at David, giving him a deep look. "After today, you've made a name for yourself in Night City!"

As Rogge said this, she glanced thoughtfully toward the second floor.

Up there, the senior figures of Night City were quietly watching the lively scene below.

"Haha, I didn't expect that boy from the Dragon Kingdom really has something..."

"Is that really magic from the East? I'm a little interested in that kid."

"Hey, it doesn't matter if it's magic or not! Being able to knock down a big guy from the Beast Gang with one punch means that boy is definitely qualified to take on a mission from me!"

"Indeed. Keep an eye on him. If he's strong enough, he could be a good partner..."

On the first floor, near the dance floor, the scavenger boys seemed lost in thought.

"Boss, what should we do now?"

"Right, that guy from the Dragon Kingdom is so powerful, even the Beast Gang's big guy was knocked out..."

"Yes, yes, if we go after him again, I'm afraid..."

For a moment, the scavenger boys seemed a little unsure of what to do.

"What the hell, what are you asking me for? Who am I supposed to ask?"

The scavenger boss, Oris, looked like he was about to explode from anger as he watched David not far away.

He was embarrassed, his brother was injured, and, most importantly, he had lost money.

What made it worse was that he didn't have the strength to retaliate.

At that moment, Oris could only stew in his anger, fuming even more the longer he thought about it.

"Damn it, I'm so angry..."

Oris punched his thigh in frustration, and as his gaze swept around, he noticed something interesting.

He saw the Beast Gang leaving the bar!

Oris's eyes lit up, and he stood up suddenly. "Let's go, damn it! We've got to get our money back!"

He quickly gathered his group of scavenger boys and followed after the Beast Gang.

Once the two gangs had left the Afterlife Bar, the lights flickered back on, and the music started again.

The party on the dance floor continued as if nothing had happened.

After all, in Night City, indulgence had just begun.
