Baka Cullen was the illegitimate child of the old master's father. He possessed excellent talent in fighting. So rather than abandoning him in the outer city, the old master's father decided to make his personnel in the ghost faction. Thus he had been in the ghost faction for 90% of his life. Now after this many years, the Baka had become the third elder of the whole faction.

Baka was a strong individual amongst the personnel of the ghost faction. But there were only two people that had surpassed him in terms of strength. Those were second elder Han and the leader Terumi.

​​

Baka may have been a weak elder. But that doesn't mean that he was an idiot. A puzzle that Han or Terumi would take 1 min to solve, that puzzle would take him 1.5 mins to solve. But he will eventually solve it. The day when Terumi said that Han had betrayed them and had gone to the path of vengeance, he didn't believe it. But as he didn't want to upset his leader, he accepted her theory.

But that day he tried to remember the day when Han proposed them his plan. He knew Han for over 3 decades now. He knew him quite well. That day when Terumi accidentally said the things about his son, in front of all the people, he genuinely thought that maybe Han will lose it this day. He was a very tolerant guy. But when comes to his son, he becomes a mad man. Even the old master knows that he should not talk about Han's son in front of him. Still, as the third elder, he became vigilant as he was 99% sure that Han would attack. But he didn't do that day.

At that time the third elder didn't pay much attention to what transpired that day. But Terumi's theory of him being someone else came forward, which got him thinking about that being true. When Han returned and proved his innocence, the third elder was the first to believe that he was indeed telling the truth.

But since that day, Han didn't show his face at the faction. It was like that he vanished from existence. Although Terumi told everyone that he had now retired and will not be joining them for this assignment. But this got him thinking. The third elder started thinking about whether it was possible for Han to not join this assignment.

And the chances of this happening were none. He would have surely joined in this assignment. That was because he would get the chance to meet his worst enemy, Alman in this assignment. There was a very very slim chance that Han would step back from this assignment. So that got him to start thinking.

Then after Han vanished he noticed that change in Terumi's behavior. He had worked with Terumi for over a decade now. The third elder may not know about her personal life that much, but he sure did know about how she operates. Being the leader and all sure got Terumi's ego fly off the roof. But she was a hard worker. She would go personally and see every detail about an important assignment.

It didn't matter how much time it would consume, but she would personally visit every outpost and check whether everyone was doing their job properly. That was what made her a good leader. But for an assignment as important as this she slacked off. She didn't visit any outposts, she didn't do any surprise inspection and most surprising of them all… She didn't call the third elder by his name for three days in a row. It was like that she didn't know what his name was.

That is why in the hall, the third elder suddenly asked his name from Terumi. He thought that maybe his instincts were wrong. But when Terumi didn't answer his question and started staring at him vigilantly, his suspicion becomes to rise. After that Terumi didn't say a word for a second or two. But then the third elder saw that she gestured him to follow her.

While following Terumi third elder raised his guard. He became ready to pounce at her at any time. Terumi left the hall and walked towards the farthest corner of the City Watch HQ. This corner was at a distance away from the hall. No one was present in the vicinity. Terumi made sure of that. Then she entered a room. Following her third elder also entered the room.

But till this time, Baka was sure that something was amidst. So as he entered the room, he took out his hidden weapon. When he entered he closed the door behind him as he didn't want Terumi to escape. With his thin sword in the air, he asked…

"Who are you?" Baka asked Terumi while pointing his weapon at her.

"…" Terumi didn't say a word.

But instead, she did the exact opposite of what was expected of her in this situation. Terumi first took off her sandals. Then she took off the necklace that she was wearing. Then she unzipped her fabulous blue color on a piece which she was wearing. Then she started undressing. As the third elder looked at the naked young body, the lustful beast that was living inside of him got awoken from slumber.

Her perfectly shaped and still perky boobs. Her perfectly hourglass-shaped body as well as her hairless pu*say made third elder's dragon roar. He didn't understand what and why was this happening. But he didn't care for an explanation. One look at her made the third elder forgot what was he doing here. As a fashion model, Terumi started coming towards the third elder while doing a catwalk.

As he got closed to him, the third elder lowered his weapon and gulped in a mouth full of saliva. As she came close to him, Terumi said…

"What a fu*king idiot." She said. But as she said that sentence, she used a manly voice. Thus before the third elder could react to what just happened, he lost his life.

…..

After killing the third elder, Arvin stuffed his body in someplace in the room. He didn't pay any attention to where he was stuffing the body. He knew that soon his body will be discovered. But he didn't care about it at all. His main focus was on his targets.

Arvin's plan was pretty simple. He was about to detonate one of his bombs, in the ceremony hall. That will gather the attention of Alman and those people of the Aurora clan. They would surely come to see the survivors of this incident. It was then he would use illusion casting and made a clone of himself when he didn't have a scar. That means his current face.

Then he would bait them to come to him and confront him. As they would surely come, he would explode the rest of the two poisonous mana stones bombs that he had. Arvin was sure that those three people that will come running towards him when they would see him. So the main point of those bombs was to affect those three. Although killing Alman was a quest, Arvin was giving priority to the skill that he would get after killing those three.

As for gathering 500 souls, Arvin gave up on that quest. Although this quest caught his eye, that quest would gather too much attention towards him. So he didn't want that…

With that Arvin was about to change in a fly and about to head out towards the ceremony hall. He a lot of killing to do. So he needed to hurry. But as he was about to transform, he heard a loud blast…

BOOOOOM

With the blast, Arvin lost his balance and slipped on the floor. Confused about what happened, Arvin was about to go out and see for himself, what happened? But then he decided against it. He still changed into a fly and went out.

As he went out, he saw that the whole hall was now desimated. From the sound and looking at the intensity of the blast, Arvin remembered the blast made from Alman's attack when he tried to rob him He still couldn't let go of the gruesome images that he saw that day. But then he realized that if this hall was decimated this way, then this was purely done by Alman.

It was then he realized that he had also given out a contract to kill those three to Alman. Could this mean, that Alman attacked those three? Could this mean that those four people were fighting each other?

But Arvin's train of thought was broken when he heard another explosion. Although it was a smaller one compared to the bigger one that just happened. But that didn't mean sh*t to Arvin as he saw, Alman being flung out of his window and that too while he was on fire.

Seeing this Arvin prepared himself for the most troublesome battle of his life.
