A city filled with terrors
A city where all thugs and manslayers were born.
A city who recognizes no mercy, no love, neither kindness...
The only thing that matters îs business, rank and money.
Most of all... Survival...
"Welcome back to Dolc Diboe...
"Are you drunk? Or are you high?" Lia casually asked.
"Nope! I have a low tolerance so I really don't drink! I'm just here to accompany Han. He wanted to hook up so BangChan told me to keep an eye on him! But the dude suddenly liked to gossip!" Hyunjin explained and even pointed at his friend, however the two failed to spot him because of the lighting.
Lia and Samael looked at each other before they finally decided to take the drink.
"So! Anything I can get for you two?" Hyunjin asks while preparing a drink for another customer.
"We're looking for a man. He's a regular here!" Samael said and opened his phone to show Hyunjin a picture. "Perhaps, have you seen him?" He asked, showing him the picture.

"Oh yeah! You just missed him! He was here right before you came!" Hyunjin chuckled and watched the two look at each other.
"If you're looking for him! He's probably upstairs with some woman! Third door on the left! Careful tho cause that guy is armed!" Hyunjin warned and the two nodded their heads at him before they left to go upstairs.
The two frowned their faces in disgust. Hearing the sinful noises coming from both sides of the hallways where three doors each are seen.
The two headed to the third door on their left. Both looked at each other first before Samael effortlessly kicked the door open. Revealing a naked man's ass on their faces.
Samael frowned with visible disgust and stood in front of Lia to avoid her seeing any more unholy images.
"What the fu**! Get out of here!!!" The man yelled and continued fu**ing the high woman beneath him as if nobody just barged in his room.
Samael huffed with displease and pulled the man on his hair without hesitation. He dragged him out of the room while Lia tails them as he wails out. Eventually garnering attention from the other rooms.
Samael pulled the man to stand up. He attempted to throw a punch on his face but Samael effortlessly dodged it. And the next thing happened was the assassin throwing the man out of the window.
"Don't worry! He's not dead yet!" Samael said to Lia and the two ran out of the bar to go to the back where the man fell.
It was pretty dark upstairs so none in there had seen their faces. They're all high on drugs too so in case they are questioned for a crime, their testimony won't be valid.
"Geez! This asshat is not just a fu**ing hooker!" Samael scoffed seeing a familiar tattoo on his back.
"Why? Are we gonna get in trouble if we kill him?" Lia asked. A tiny bit of concern laced on her question.
Samael crouched close to the unconscious man to get a better look on the tattoo.
"I'm pretty sure it once crossed your mind that Cold Bodies aren't the only assassin society out in this world right?" Samael asked and looked up at the girl.
"I-I guess so!" Lia muttered, having thought of the idea just now.
"This guy is from Ex-Calibre!" Said Samael and drew out the dagger he stole from Lia.
Without hesitation. Samael cut the skin as if cutting the tattoo in half while using the dagger like a scalpel.
"Well! Are we gonna get in trouble if we kill him?" Lia asked again. This time, she's totally hesitating.
"I guess that's a yes. But maybe also a no!" Samael said and stood up with a light chuckle.
"Come on! Be specific! Can't you see I'm hesitating here?" Lia rambled and crossed her arms.
"He's your turf so if you want to kill him! I really don't mind! You're TRICKSTER's student after all, so killing even an ally won't be questioned since it's part of the title you're gonna have to live with one day!" Samael stated and diverted his gaze to the man.
"But know that this guy is an Ex-Calibre! One of the biggest assassin societies out there like the Cold Bodies. Both societies had never been on each other's neck ever in history. They're neither enemies nor friends. But they're both known to be merciless and can bring hell on anyone's doorstep." He explained and Lia couldn't help but let her mouth fall agape in utter shock.
"So we're really gonna get in trouble if we kill him!?" She snapped and looked at the man who was still unconscious.
"Don't worry! He didn't see our faces since it's dark. But we still need to be careful since this man is probably a high rank compared to us both." Samael said to her before gesturing to her to leave with him.
The two went back to their car and immediately drove back to the hotel before the others suspected them gone.
As soon as the two got back to the Hotel. Lia started rambling in sheer panic and anxiousness.
"He's seen my face at the mall! And Jamie too! He'll definitely think one of us came back for him! He could track me down!"
"Or what if he wasn't really unconscious when we were talking there?! What if he knows our voices!? Or worse! He could be watching us right now already and have tons of snipers ready to shoot us!?"
"Fu**! I should've listened to Jamie! Why did I have to get back on him! I'm such an idiot!"
Samael couldn't help but find himself smiling. As he watches how the girl engulfs herself in panic.
It's true what he said about the Ex-Calibre. But he just wanted to see her reaction since he's probably the only one in their team who knows about other societies. Maybe Tim and Kai know too but it's not something that should be talked about in the open.
"Don't worry too much about it! You're one of the Cold Bodies now and a student of TRICKSTER at that! You can't be easily harmed!" Samael said in a calming tone but the girl just rolled her eyes at him.
"Stop sugarcoating it! Someone's still gonna come for me either way around." She scoffed and crossed her arms.
"Would it make you feel better then if I say I'll protect you?"
