Uvogin

The streets of Yorknew City were alive with excitement as the world-famous Underground Auction drew collectors, mafioso's, hunters, and criminals from every corner of the globe. Neon lights reflected off rain-slick pavement, and expensive cars lined the streets outside the auction halls.Rumors of priceless treasures filled the air. Most people were focused on the auction itself, completely unaware that a nightmare was unfolding nearby. The Phantom Troupe had begun their attack. Screams echoed through the city as members of the Troupe moved with terrifying efficiency. The mafia guards who stood in their way never stood a chance. Buildings trembled from explosions, gunfire rang through the night, and panic spread like wildfire. To the people of Yorknew, it felt as though death itself had descended upon the city. Amid the chaos, I found myself frozen in place, watching from the shadows.Every instinct told me to run, but my feet refused to move.Across the street stood the infamous Phantom Troupe.Even from a distance, their presence was overwhelming.Their cold confidence and unmatched strength made them seem less like people and more like forces of nature.Then one of them noticed me. Uvogin. Towering above everyone around him, he looked like a giant among men.His broad shoulders and fierce grin made him appear even more intimidating than the stories claimed. Blood stained his clothes from the battle, yet he seemed completely unbothered, as if the massacre were nothing more than a warm-up. Our eyes met. For a brief moment, the noise of Yorknew faded away. Uvogin stopped walking. The other members of the Troupe continued forward, but he remained still, staring directly at me.Confusion crossed his face first, followed by curiosity. I expected him to laugh, threaten me, or simply ignore me.Instead, he smiled. It wasn't the savage grin he had worn during the fight. This smile was different-genuine, almost surprised. As if he had discovered something unexpected in the middle of a battlefield. "Who's that?" he asked, glancing toward the others. No one seemed to know.
