Philia stood before the door, took a deep breath and kicked it open.
She aimed her gun and immediately shot 5 legs of 5 men. They all kneeled down and screamed in pain.
Philia, “stay down and behave” she said and examined the messy room.
Ophir followed after and fanned the air around him, “Ugh, what is that smell?”
Philia knocked 4 men unconscious and left one awake, “name” she ordered. Her voice carrying the sense of authority.
The man shivered as he stared at the two figures who suddenly barged in, he replied in their language “A-a-aldren... please don't h-hurt me”
Philia then began to ransack the room and look for the sack the contained all the drugs that was smuggled in.
Philia, “Okay aldren, tell me where the drugs are”
Aldren shivered and immediately points where the sack is using his lips.
Ophir rolled his eyes, “Its cute if it's you, but it's not if it's others”
Philia ignored the man who's leisurely standing by the door. She went towards the sack and opened it, greeted by a pure powder of white drugs.
Ophir raised his brows and stood behind the female, “That is a lot of heroin drugs. One sack of it too. Hey, why not sell it to me?”
Philia glance at the man, “Seriously?”
Ophir, “I was just joking, you can't be thinking that I'm that type of person right?”
She stared at him for a second and turned to aldren who's still kneeling on the ground in pain as a pool of blood gradually starts to form.
Ophir, “Hey, philia, I'm not the type of person, I was just joking”
Philia lightly used her feet to kick the man, forcing his head to look at the two. He gritted his teeth and said, “Take it! But don't kill my companions!”
Philia didn't react to his pleading, “You killed innocent people, why can't I kill your companions?”
Aldren could not fight back and can only bare with the stinging pain on his leg. “We didn't mean it...” he said, his face filled with snot and tears.
Philia suddenly shoot one of the man, “oops, I also didn't mean it”
Aldren shot his eyes open and stared at his companion who now has a hole in his head, “Y-you...”
Ophir narrowed his eyes and stayed behind, watching the scene before him.
Philia interrogated aldren on where they usually ship the drugs and which route they take it. After getting all the information she needed, as well as the other sack of drugs that was hidden. She shot aldren and the rest of them on the head without even blinking twice.
Ophir smiled but it lacks emotion, “Why did you kill them?”
Philia faced Ophir and can already tell what he's thinking. She points to the man she first shot dead, “25 raped victims, all teens below 15. 5 raped victims, all kids below 10 to 6. Tortured 7 innocent men, sold 8 women, killed 4 families for fun, and buried 4 men alive. Tell me, why did I kill him?”
Ophir stared at philia with his silver eyes that seems to stab through her. Philia didn't feel scared even though she knew this man is dangerous. She still feel at ease.
Ophir, “Then the others? What did they commit?”
Philia, “Almost the same thing, they also did arson. Burned almost a whole street. And this man, aldren, pleaded me not to kill them, if he asked those words to the victims, would they simply kill them or not? Killing them is letting them easy, if I were them, I'd make them suffer that they'll wish for death”
When martial handed the first task to her, she spent a day to research about the men involved. Studying it to the smallest detail.
Back in her first life, she did the same. She killed the ones who were not worth saving. Since these criminals refused to follow the law. Then the person who will chase after them will also do the same. She never followed the law, that is why being a Chevalier is a secret and is often lingering in the dark.
To clean up dirty people, who need someone who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty too. But the difference is that, a chevalier never gets paid. No matter how big and convoluted the task may be, nor matter how dangerous and life threatening it is. They never get paid. That is why, not all country masters chose chevalier positions.
In all of philia's life, she has never met a second master who is also a chevalier.
She never had a companion either. Ophir was the first one. And even if she prefer to be a lone wolf. She didn't mind his presence and couldn't help but be open and honest to him.
Ophir watched her face and saw different expression she made. Amidst the room with 5 dead bodies, he can see clarity in her heterochromatic eyes.
He sighed and conceded, “Alright then, how do we deal with these?”
Philia takes out her phone and texted a message. “someone can handle it”
After messaging the number, philia takes out a knife and did a few stab on the dead bodies. She then threw one body on the wall that the blood splattered all over the wall.
She also took aldren's body and beat it a few times that a faint bruises could be seen. They were jus killed so the blood and brain were still working.
She did all of it to 5 dead corpses. Ophir couldn't help but ask, “What are you doing?”
Philia, “Making a scene, don't worry, it won't take long. I'll erase our traces too”
Ophir, “This is definitely a shady business”
Philia replied and planted a knife on one of the men's stomach with an innocent look, “You can leave if you want to” she said.
Ophir's eyes twitched, “Aren't you afraid I'll tell the cops?”
Philia smiled, “You won't”
After doing the last step, they both went out of the house carrying the sack of drugs. Ophir asked, “How are we gonna take this?”
Philia, “Burn it”
Ophir, “here?”
Philia nodded, “Here”
The ‘here’ philia stated was in the middle of the squatters. Ophir can even see a few curious people peeking from their windows, looking at the two of them and at the sack of drugs.
Ophir, “right...”
Philia, “I have gasoline with me”
Ophir, “Who carries gasoline with them?”
Philia already read the information so she was prepared. “I do. From time to time”
The two then settled the sack down and placed a few trashes on it, as well as other garbage.
She then takes out a small container, opened it and threw it, then takes out a lighter and lit up up, “Combaya” she said.
Ophir, “That's not combaya— nevermind”
Philia threw the lighter and the moment it hit the surface, it ignited and lit up. The pungent air was then filled with the smell of the undetectable smell of heroin.
