CHAPTER 54

The 'deputy minister' walked into the minister's room. The minister was very busy filing paperwork. Out of respect, the secretary was standing outside. He did not have as much security as the deputy minister, as they must be believing that there must have been an important discussion.

"Good morning sir. I have something to show you.", Arata said to the minister on entering.

"What is it Charyeok ?", the minister asked.

"Sir, it's my floor ! There has been an incident that I can't speak about ! It's hard to describe. Just please come with me !", Arata said. He wondered if the deputy president ever got this worked up over something was he always like this. He didn't really care how it was, this should be able to get the Minister moving.

"OK, take me to your office.", the minister said with a determined look.

Wait, was this lucky ? ,Arata thought. He never thought it would be that easy. He was thinking of trying to lure this man to Rachel and take him into custody but he never imagined it to be possible. He was going to assassinate him and return with Rachel and escape. People hadn't really paid attention to Rachel and they won't be able to trace it back to her, much less Arata.

The Minister of technology came into the room. Rachel captured him, and he couldn't say anything. Then they left the building in the easiest way possible, by parkouring and met up with Sloth shortly after.

"How was it ?", Sloth asked.

"I need more preparation I guess. I have to make full use of my abilities. I am curious as to how Greed and Envy assassinate people. Though I can guess for Envy, but I have no clue for Envy."

"Well, you could go tag along with them when they go out. You can assassinate the other ministers tomorrow, and assassinate the prime minister's guard in the night. Just go ahead and watch today !", Sloth said.

"OK then. Rachel, what are you going to do ?", Arata asked her.

"Of course, speak to the Minister of Technology. Let's see what happened in the past 2 years.", she replied.

First, Greed was going out for an assassination. But she had many materials on her. The clothes she wore had many safe pockets on them and carried a lot of materials. She wore a mask and did not roam around in the city, instead went through the alleys. Which was pretty professional. She had the silent footsteps perfected and moved with agility. She did turn back quite a lot of times, sensing there was someone behind her, but she couldn't see anything.

Then a knife flew towards Arata, which he dodged. It was truly a beautiful note, he felt. There weren't really any chances of martial arts for Arata anymore, so he forgot the taste of being attacked.

"Such a strong note. You would make a good Timpanist or percussionist. Strong and scientific.", Arata said, coming out of his summoning.

"Thank you for the compliment. As you know, Even I have a punishment. It's to see the world in a different frequency. I cannot see colours anymore, only sense heat from my eyes. My vision was my price.", she said.

"I see, something like Lust's ?", Arata asked.

"No, she has a choice. It's like a dual ability. I don't know what makes her think that as a punishment. Anyways, you can see me. How I make a beauty.", Greed said.

"OK. Lead me ahead.", Arata said. There was a tall apartment building (10 floors) which was free to everyone. The security guard asked for their identities and they said that they had a friend on the 8 th floor. The security guard telephoned that flat no. who said they were friends. Arata never thought Greed would have friends, but he was proved wrong.
