The City Of Evil

"Why are we even given the task of chasing crazy scientists while the rest of the team is just making expeditions to places that are not even dangerous." Kento complained while spitting out cigarette smoke from his mouth.

"Kento, if you're complaining to me it's pointless, just say it directly to the higher-ups."

"Well, if only I could do it, I wouldn't complain here even if I was crazy enough and attacked the offices of the existing superiors I got fired and didn't get paid, if I don't get paid then I can't see Mona anymore."

"Mona?" Luke was a little surprised to hear someone's name.

"What do you want? Are you interested in Mona too?" Kento looked at Luke while showing a smile that seemed sly or not? Maybe an evil smile? Luke didn't know.

"Hey, uncle, don't teach this new member your perverted habits."

"Don't act like that Charles, I just took you there last week and you're addicted to Lisa. How many times have I warned you, don't call me uncle!"

"Lisa?" Once again Luke was confused at hearing someone else's name.

"W-what are you saying uncle,"

"Charles….!" A gripping air began to be felt by Charles and he turned to his left and saw his sister who showed an extraordinary killing intent aimed at his younger brother.

"N-no, n-not like that sis…!!"

"Are you interested too, kid?" Kento asked Luke who was looking at Charles frightened by Charlotte.

"What?"

"Of course to meet Mona and the others too." Kento gave Luke a perverted smile.

"No, I'm not interested in that."

"Come on, Charles was like you at first but when I asked him he even started coming back all the time even without me."

"Is that right Charles?" asked Charlotte who was getting more and more angry with Charles.

"Anyway, how could Charlotte be so angry when Charles was just meeting someone?"

Kento, Charles and Charlotte who heard that were silent and surprised by Luke's words. Luke, who saw their expressions, was confused. Did he say the wrong thing? It's not normal, right, if they only met, why would they even be surprised to see him.

"Hahahaha…" Kento laughed widely and in the room only his loud laughter could be heard.

"You are quite interesting, kid," Kento continued, laughing again remembering Luke's words.

"Don't worry, I'll take you there sometime." While wiping his teary eyes from laughing out loud Kento will take Luke to where Mona and Lisa are.

"Oh, alright." The confused Luke could only say that. He didn't know who Mona and Lisa were.

"Hey, why did you even say yes to uncle's invitation?" Charlotte suddenly scolded Luke and Luke was even more confused by his current situation. Why is Charlotte angry? Is the place Kento invited to a bad place?

"S-sorry." Luke could only apologize to Charlotte and he also didn't know what was wrong?

"Hey, hey Charlotte just let your brother and this new recruit come with me, we're three boys after all so what's wrong, right, Charles?" Kento glanced at Charles with an eyebrow raised.

"Y-yes, that's right sis. I'm a man so, what's wrong with me going there?" Charles, who seemed to be given courage by Kento, dared to fight his sister's argument and this time the air in the room was getting darker and it seemed that this time Charles really made Charlotte angry.

"Shut up, Charles!! Come to my room later." After Charlotte said that for some reason Charles was petrified and instead he sat down very politely and it looked like he was going to get really scolded by his sister.

" Why don't you take the captain too, uncle?" Luke asked who looked back at Captain Daniel who was standing with his arms folded.

"Inviting the Captain you say? And stop calling me uncle." Kento glanced briefly at the Captain and then back at Luke.

"Believe me kid, you wouldn't take someone like him to a place like that," Kento whispered to Luke and why was he whispering to say it while Luke felt that Kento whispering seemed useless because the Captain would know what the conversation was about and what the four of us were thinking.

"I took him there once and I ended up not getting any stage because of that person, everyone was attracted to him and you know how he reacted?" Luke just shook his head at Kento's question.

"He just kept quiet and thought it was just a matter of course while they were talking a lot and he just answered it in a flat tone without any expression. But, they actually like his style like that. Damn, I'm really regret asked the Captain to meet with Mona."

Luke didn't know and didn't understand what the three of them were talking about earlier. And it seems Kento experienced something that traumatized him that day. Maybe it wasn't the Captain's fault, maybe he just lost in prestige to a famous person. Anyone in this town doesn't know Daniel Verin. His face was plastered in various places from flyers, advertisements and various mass and electronic media. Everyone was talking about him and he didn't seem bothered by it. It was as if he didn't care what was going on out there.

"Before this mission became our official mission, I had gathered various kinds of information about Alexei Dmitri and," The captain turned the slide of the large screen and saw a crowd of people and also among the crowd was Alexei wearing a hat and glasses.

"It can be seen that Alexei and his two bodyguards have recently been in the city of Maripol and it seems that he is conducting transactions in that city."

Maripol, a city located in the southwest of Axiom City and that city is not included in the jurisdiction of the kingdom and it is famous as a neutral city where anyone is free to do anything regardless of race, be it human or vampire. And it is said that the city is ruled by vampires. Can humans and vampires coexist? Maybe it was just a cover for the vampires who were there looking for good prey and made the excuse that it was a neutral city where anyone could live without fear.

"So, are we going there captain?" Kento asked.

"We'll be there in three days."

"Why does it have to be three more days? Isn't this the right time to go there?"

"The information obtained is still very minimal, we only know that this vampire is in the city with two of his bodyguards and in three days they will make a transaction."

"Then our goal isn't just Alexei?" asked Charlotte.

"Right, we have to find out who he's dealing with and also find out what's going on with that town."

"Isn't it just Captain's neutral city?" This time it was Charles who asked.

"Indeed, it's a neutral city but the higher-ups told us to investigate whether it's really neutral or not."

"Haah… Once again we received an unreasonable task."

"Don't worry Kento, if this mission is successful you will be able to meet Mona more often."

"Really Captain?" Daniel just nodded at Kento's words. Kento who initially looked sluggish because this team always received unreasonable missions and now he was even happy his eyes sparkled when he saw the Captain. Maybe, if this team completes this task maybe we will get a big bonus. It's only natural to get a big bonus because the tasks given are quite heavy.

"The main objective of this mission is to find out the laboratory where Alexei conducted his experiments and retrieve the results of the experiments he is currently conducting and also find out who the person who supplied the experimental materials to Alexei was and find out what was going on in the city of Maripol. Is there anything else you want to ask? If not, we will end the briefing session this afternoon."
