Cain felt satisfied with his skill development. His [Playing Guitar] evolved into [Instrument Mastery] when he picked up other instruments.

His [Dancing] skill had also seen a significant improvement, reflecting the countless hours he dedicated to it over the past month.

For Cain, dancing was a lot like fighting — it required focus, agility, and precision, making it his favorite pursuit next to combat. He even began incorporating fighting moves into his dance routines, seamlessly blending the two disciplines. This fusion of skills led to the emergence of a new ability: [Choreography].

Although it was still at a low level, the potential it held excited Cain. This newfound skill allowed him to craft unique routines, setting him apart in the competitive world of idol stardom.

However, progressing past level 20 was proving to be a challenge, and it had been days since he last saw any advancement. Nonetheless, he remained determined, eager to break through and continue his ascent.

Maybe if he could level it up some more, he could create his own signature dance moves and achieve even greater viral success.

But wait . . . He realized that dancing was just another skill to become an idol. The most important one was still singing, a challenge he hadn't yet mastered despite practicing every day.

At least his pitch and tone had improved, albeit slightly, giving him hope that he was on the right track.

"Alright, I guess it's time for that," Cain murmured to himself, a determined glint in his eye.

Perched on a beam, Fifi licked her ice cream and watched Cain with curiosity. Her face was smeared with the frozen treat as she glanced over. "Hmm? Time for what?"

"Time to create a hairstyle while dancing!" Cain announced with a grin.

Fifi paused mid-lick, her eyebrows raised in surprise. "Huh?"

Cain's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Have you ever seen anyone dancing while styling their hair?" he challenged Fifi.

Fifi wiped her mouth clean and pulled up her Goddess Screen. After a few moments of searching, she looked back at Cain. "There are countless trends out there, and everyone is doing almost everything you could think and not think off for views.

"But surprisingly, only a handful of people have tried dancing while styling their hair, and even fewer have managed to pull it off. Are you really going to go for this type of content?"

It seemed outrageous, but then again, the most outrageous ideas often went viral online.

Cain smirked. "Exactly. It's about time to combine some skills and make a viral sensation!" And pushed his way to being an idol faster.

Fifi shrugged, her expectations lowered. "Well, good luck with that."

After a grueling day of honing his skills, Cain finally made his way back to their HQ.

"Hey, Cain! You're finally back!" Joker greeted him with a mischievous grin.

"Ohohoho, where have you been?" Bones chimed in, his voice laced with curiosity. "Have you been out having fun without us?"

Cain simply waved them off, making his way upstairs to his room, leaving his gang members exchanging puzzled glances.

"The boss has been acting weird for over a month now," one of them muttered.

"Do you think he's sick?" another wondered aloud.

"Is he alright?" a voice chimed in, tinged with concern.

"Maybe the boss is hiding something from us," a hushed voice speculated.

"He's not even planning our next move to counter those gangsters from the east. They've been encroaching on our turf lately. We need to do something about them," one member said, frustration evident in his tone.

"Ah, you mean the Zone A District 3 – The Silver Serpents gang," Joker's face turned serious as he spoke.

"Their leader, Cobra, a former businessman with a venomous reputation, is involved in high-stakes financial crimes and fraud," Bone added. "The Silver Serpents are a sleek and sophisticated group that operates in the upper echelons of society. Their members are known for their silver jewelry and snake-themed tattoos, symbolizing their cunning and predatory nature."

"Their gang is backed by a filthy rich and dangerous person. He could crush us anytime he wanted," another member chimed in.

"Is that why the boss isn't doing anything about them even though they've been loitering around our turf lately?" someone questioned.

The room fell silent, the air thick with tension.

Joker took a deep breath and leaned back into the couch. "Well, we can't move without Cain's decisions."

He then pointed at one of the members. "Hey, you, go up there and check on him."

The heavyset guy pointed at himself, bewildered. "Me?"

"No! That figurine right behind you. He could certainly walk and go upstairs. Damn it! Of course, you! Now get up there!"

"R-right away!" The guy stammered as he hurried to obey.
