"Xavier isn't back yet?" Aiden asked as he arrived at the garden, stumbling upon a scene of Butler Nicholas watering the plants in the garden. "He isn't and I doubt he'd be back in a while" Butler Nicholas replied ambiguously as he stopped what he was doing. "If it's about your training. I am happy to accompany you anytime" he added. "It's not that" Aiden shove his hands into the inner pocket of his school uniform suit, flashing a long sheet of paper at the Butler's face. "Oh? so it's Project Sentinel Program" Butler Nicholas nodded in understanding upon seeing the sheet of paper. As a Vampire, his sight was far more enhanced than that of regular humans. So although he was far away, he could sill clearly read the contents of the paper. "Here it says I need the consents of a parent or guardian before I can participate" Aiden explained. "I know about that. It's just that the crisis the capital City is facing won't be dealt with even in a week time" Butler Nicholas unconsciously
Vroom!!Aiden who was leaning against the wall of an alley way opened his eyes upon hearing the sound of a bike engine roaring.Looking over, a bike pulled over before him as Raya stepped down, pulling off her helmet."Why did you suddenly run off like that?" Aiden asked her, recalling what transpired between them a few hours ago."It's nothing. Why did you wait out here?" Raya asked."Well, my Butler has begun to grow suspicious. He thinks that an assassin is secretly targeting my life" Aiden shrugged."So from now one, our rendezvous junction would be out here"Nodding, Raya patted the back of her bike."Get on"Naturally, Aiden did as he was told, and so, the bike zoomed off, into the dead of the night..."So what's up with yesterday? I checked at the dojo and found it empty. Not only that, I didn't receive a call from you either" due to the speed at which Raya's bike was moving, Aiden had to speak in a higher pitch so she could hear him."I never knew you enjoyed my company" R
"Right.." "Although Boss Kaine won the entire eligibility to becoming this District Baron, Sir Bart, the leader of the Red Sharks naturally couldn't accept such a reality. Although it might seem like we are tight knitted in the Empyrean Council, there's a lot of Infighting" Raya sighed. "The Empyrean Council is an alliance formed by the three Monarchs, however that doesn't necessarily mean they are friends. The main reason for the alliance was to protect themselves from the powerful World Council.." "However recently, the three Monarchs seemed to have had a disagreement and the alliance is at the verge of disbanding. Naturally, their conflicts extends over to their subordinates. This means each of their subordinates fight among themselves for territory ownership " "Currently, Boss Kaine is s subordinate of Monarch Maestro, while Sir. Bart is a subordinate of Monarch Camille. If Sir. Bart loses this power struggle, it would be akin to trampling the dignity of Monarch Camille. That
"I think we are safe here" only after they were quite a distance away from the nightclub did Aiden eventually stop to catch his breath. "Are you okay?" He turned towards Raya, only to discover that her eyes were blood red and her fangs were in full display. Not only that, the way she was looking at him seemed strange. It reminded him of the way a predator looks at a delectable prey. And honestly, it was starting to freak him out! "You really wanna die huh.. pant.. pant" Raya mumbled in between heavy pants as she tactically averted het gaze away from Aiden. "If you keep this up, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold myself back one day" she added with a groan. "Hold yourself back? what do you meant?" "Tch. Just make sure to keep your distance away from me... No, other Vampires in the future. I'm afraid that there aren't many capable of holding themselves back like the way I'm doing " "You said you had a plan to successfully carry out this assassination. Wha is it?".. "Thirt
"RED Suit? tho I won't lie that the get up fits the name" Melvin commented upon reading the information on the danger poster. "This Mercenary appears to be a new recruit. Since he participated in the raid at Blade Mantis Guild, it is safe to say that he's a member of Team Super Axis " "Isn't the Sentry Association being too cautious? Attaching such a high danger level to a newbie Mercenary who just broke into the scene " Melvin scoffed. "I know the amount of mess I stirred to gain the attention of the Mercenary Association and gain the current danger leveI have on me now " Melvin's tone was one of annoyance. "According to news from the Phantom Web, the Mercenary; Red Suit killed a total of five Junior A-Class Sentries during the raid " Marie shook her head. "Well, that's impressive for a newbie. After all, a Junior A-Class Sentry must have the cultivation of a Gamma Warrior or something similar to that " Melvin was slightly surprised. "No wonder the Mercenary Association label
"Lady Vixon?! do you mean that weakling Raya who only knows how to escape from a fight with that annoying mist chikara that she stole?" "She became that powerful?! I can't believe it!!" Melvin's jaws dropped as he read the information on the danger poster. However, nothing seemed to change, matter how many times he cleaned his eyes. "Indeed. Even I was shocked. It seems like Boss Kaine had been hiding their strength all along and decided to use those Sentries as scape goats to show us what they are capable of" Marie frowned. "Is the boss aware of this?" this time, Melvin didn't dare act carefree anymore. A Mercenary with such a high danger level.. was a threat! especially when that Mercenary belonged to an opposing gang. "I did. And since then, he hasn't been in a good mood.." "Uwaaaah!!!!" just then, the duo heard a cry of pain from outside, causing them to temporarily halt their discussion. "Did you hear that?" Melvin glanced towards Marie. Just as the latter made to re
"I've finally escaped!" Melvin grinned to himself as he popped out from a hole on the ground, many distances aways from his night club. However his smile soon turned into a frightened frown as he suddenly turned backward, only to see a feminine figure squatting atop the roof of a nearby building. "Lady Vixon!!" he gasped in horror upon recognizing Raya who was currently in her disguise. "You are really good at escaping. No wonder you are called Viper Mole" Raya sighed lightly. "Unfortunately for you, my guess was spots on" she added. "L-Lady Vixon.. why.. why are you here?" currently, Melvin's rate of breathing seemed to suddenly accelerated upon discovering that the one he was about to face off against was the infamous Lady Vixon. "Are you crazy?" Raya felt amused at the question. "Don't tell me you didn't see this coming when you were busy killing one of my comrades " she shook her head. "If you don't put up a struggle, I promise to give you a swift death " she added , he
Raya grinned as she clenched her fist tightly, crushing the heart she held in her grip, into nothing but mush.. However, her brows shot up as she suddenly kicked the ground, initiating a triple backflip, distancing herself away from Melvin's corpse. Or so she thought.. Wriiish.. At they moment, the corpse of Melvin who seemingly had his heart ripped out from his chest slowly transformed into nothing but muddy substance. As for where Raya had previously stood on, it was now filled with sharp rocky spikes. If she had been even a second late, her body would have been skewered. "Nice. Although you are fairly strong, your survival instincts is very sharp. Even after you killed me you still didn't let down your guard" Melvin's laughter rang shortly after. Since it was currently nighttime, it was hard to see any sign of him, even with the vampiric sight that Raya posssed. "You must be surely jesting. If I killed you, how come you are still alive then?" Raya retorted, nervously gla
