Unbeknownst to the King, their call for help went unnoticed as Leo can be seen walking on the streets with his cane tapping on the ground, making his presence almost known and recognized by everyone.

"Who is he?"

"Don't know and I don't care. It's just a blind man."

"I wonder how it feels to become blind. I feel pity for him."

"Well I don't."

"That's harsh!"

Not knowing that the main subject of their topic was able to hear them, Leo ignored their whispers as he was busy checking his status.

'Good improvement.' Leo smiled to himself upon seeing the fruit of his hard work.

He's been staying consistent in this world by completing Quests related to both Kingpin and Daredevil, even going as far as making his own law firm, but instead of naming it after Nelson as the guy didn't exist, he decided to name it after Luna.

Speaking of Luna, Leo didn't expect her to suddenly have a human form upon reaching a certain physical age.

'I almost forgot to buy her food.' Making a slight turn, Leo is now headed towards the sweets store, Luna's favourite.

Leo doesn't know where she got her tendency to eat sweet as she just suddenly got a sweet tooth out of nowhere.

*Kling!*

"Welcome! Ahh, it's you again, Mr. Matt. Is there anything you want?" Upon entering, Leo was immediately greeted by the cashier.

"Just the usual." Matt smiled and said, using his cane to find a seat.

"It's for little Luna, right? Right away." Smiling to herself, the cashier then started taking out several chocolate and white chocolate chips from the counter.

*Kling!*

While waiting by himself, Leo's ears suddenly picked up the sound of the shop bell.

"This is the fourth time we've been here this week, Anna. Don't we have enough chocolates back at home?"

"Oh come on, Elsa. This shop's chocolates are the best of the best? Besides, didn't you say that you also liked their sweets?" The two visitors who turned out to be Elsa and Anna the two princesses of the kingdom of Arendelle, were happily chatting as the earlier cashier was quick to tend to them.

"Ah! Princess Anna, Princess Elsa. It's an honor to have you both here again!" 

"Vera! It's nice to see you again. We'll take the usual." It was Anna who greeted her in a joyous and excited manner while Elsa on her side simply smiled while waving her hand.

"Okay, Princess Anna." After successfully ordering, Anna dragged her sister Elsa to a table before sitting.

"Good morning, Princesses." A knight guard who is on his break at the moment was drinking coffee and greeted the two princesses.

"Good morning to you too sir knight." Saluting to the knight, Anna then turned around to face Elsa.

Coincidentally, behind Elsa was our dear protagonist, who was busy reducing his presence in order to not attract the attention of the two protagonists earlier than he planned.

'What a fucking coincidence.' Leo rolled his eyes in an annoyed manner before a fragrance suddenly entered through his nostrils thanks to his sharp nose.

'Is that Elsa? She smells....good. Who knew such fragrance actually exists in this kind of world.' Closing his eyes, Leo decided to spend the rest of his waiting time by smelling the beautiful scent of the ice cold princess behind him.

No he's not a stalker or a creep, it's not like he wanted to be in this situation. He was just forced, yes, 'forced'.

Thankfully, it didn't take long before his order was finished.

"Here's your 5 dark chocolate chips and 3 milk chocolates, Mr. Matt." Hearing this, Leo grabbed his cane stick and stood up with the help of it before 'tapping' his way to the counter.

"Thank you." Leo smiled and grabbed the plastic bag while handing out a gold coin on the counter.

"I added an extra dark chocolate chip inside for your daughter Luna, it's on the house this time." Vera even graciously gave an extra for free. Looks like Luna's cuteness paid off.

"A-ahh, thank you for your generosity, Ms. Vera. I'll make sure to tell Luna about this." His cheeks twitched from calling Luna as his daughter especially right in front of Anna and Elsa, Leo immediately tapped his cane out of the shop.

"Wow, he looks young and he already has a child. He's also quite handsome to be a father, too bad he's blind though" Whispering to her sister Elsa, both the princesses's eyes were glued to the back of the departing Leo.

"Anna! You don't speak to people with disabilities like that!" Elsa glared at her sister.

"Sorry..." Anna apologized while making a praying gesture to her sister.

"Sigh, just don't do it again. Be grateful that you're normal and don't insult those who aren't." Anna nodded her head in her sister's words, missing out the melancholy gleam that flashed on her eyes which disappeared soon after.

***

"Can't believe I met the two of them on this day. Thankfully nothing much happened. I could still proceed with the plan." Sighing in relief, Leo finally arrived at a normal looking building with a large signage that reads 'Luna & Murdock'

*Klang!*

"Guf myorning custome- ahh Papa!" At the counter, a short black haired girl around the age of 7 can be seen munching on some sweets before her face turns bright upon Leo's entrance.

"Luna." Leo smiled and crouched, letting the black panther-turned human to reach him to hug.

"Fuwaahh. Hihihi...." Wiping the chocolate on her lips on Leo's clean shirt, Luna grinned and silently laughed to herself.

"Luna...." Giving Luna a twitching look, which just made Luna laugh more.

"Hahhahihihi!" Letting go of Leo, Luna quickly turned into a small black panther and ran away, afraid to face Leo's wrath, which is a good choice for her as Leo also morphed into a similar black panther except larger and faster.

"Waahhh!"

***

"Here's your sweets." After catching and 'punishing' little Luna, they finally both settled on the table with Leo dropping the plastic bag full of Luna's sweets on the table.

"Woaahhh!" Smiling widely, Luna wasted no time in taking out the sweets and munching on them as if there was no tomorrow.

"What do you say?" Leo reminded her.

"Hmm....Fenkk you?" Luna thanked him however her mouth is still full.

"Sigh, this parent thingy is so hard." Muttering to himself, Leo sighed in defeat. However his words were heard by Luna and she seemed to have misinterpreted them.

"Are you....abandoning Luna papa?" Tears slowly formed in her eyes as Luna dropped the sweets on her hand.

"No no no! Papa's not abandoning you! He was just....writing a poem! Yes, just a poem!" Quickly hugging the crying child, Leo soothed her.

"Sniff! Weally?" Sniffing the snot on her nose, Luna asked him for confirmation.

"Yes. Yes. Here, have some chocolate." Leo grabbed a piece of chocolate chip and gave it to Luna, who slowly ate it despite her hesitation, it seems like her will to eat is stronger than she thought.

"There there." Leo then patted her soft black hair while she munched on the chocolate.

'I should learn to not say such things in front of her.' Leo shook his head and said to himself.

***

After tucking Luna in who seems to get sleepy whenever she ate her favourite sweets.

"I need to go and meet some clients." Slowly, Leo's face started to morph and not only his face but also his entire body, his size increasing and his face changing.

His previous appearance is already gone and what replaced him was a big fat man with an irritable face.

"Kingpin's back." Leo grinned to herself, which made him look ugly in his current look.

He then disappeared from his place and arrived in a white marble room full of exquisite and expensive items.

"Back to my office." Leo sighed in relief while leaning down to his chair.

Thanks to a few skills and items that he drew from the golden and normal Gacha tickets, he received some very delicious and strong skills.

First is his appearance changing, which is a rare skill that he got.

[Raven's morphing ability - A former X-Men member whose ability is to impersonate other people's appearance.]

Thanks to this ability, he was able to transform into anyone he likes, especially his template's appearance, which is an example here when he turned into Kingpin.

Another skill that is very useful is related to Minato from Naruto.

[Flying Thunder God Jutsu - Allows the user to mark any place and teleport to the said mark anytime.]

Definitely his most useful skill right now.

He then pressed the bell on his table.

*Ring!*

*Thud*

"Yes, Mr. Kingpin?" Entering through the door was a beautiful voluptuous woman, his assistant.

"I believe we have guests. Let them in." Leo leaned forward and smiled. His current headquarters is in Weselton Kingdom, where he first thrived.

"Okay, Mr. Kingpin. You guys may enter now." 

"Finally!"

Quickly barging through the door, a short man and a tall but young man entered with rash behaviors.

"Duke and... Prince Hans? What do I owe the pleasure of your visit?"
