Found You

The footage that Ms.Evernight was watching was a video that showcased a group of people standing around a bed. The person who laid on the bed unconscious was a young man nearing his twenties, he had a round and slightly chubby face that created a child-like, innocent air around him. The group of people who stood around him all looked at him with worried and curious expressions on their faces.

Suddenly, the young man's body experienced changes as his face grew sharp and angular, his hair turned a bit longer and his height increased vastly.

Ms.Evernight paused the video at the moment the young man finished transforming. She enlarged the video so that it focused on the young man's face. She rested her head on her hand, seemingly in contemplation.

After a while, she opened another tab and clicked on a particular file where it appeared the images of two ID cards. One of them was the image of a round face man, the other had medium-length hair on it. Beneath the latter was printed the name "Mark Walter".

Ms.Evernight took a careful look at the card that had the name Mark on it. Then she opened a third tab, this one had a footage of a man who looked identical to the one in the morgue's video.

The man said to the woman who sat at a table in a polite voice:

{Excuse me, are there any fights that are about to happen? I'd like to join a wager.}

Ms.Evernight stopped the video once more, she zoomed in again on the man's face to carefully scrutinize him. She opened the fourth tab, this once was a short audio that was turned on after she tapped on it.

{No thank you, I'm busy.} The audio sounded out a man's voice.

Ms.Evernight turned off all the tabs after she heard that. She took a bottle of red wine from the limousine and then poured it into a cup. She drank a little sip while maintaining her silence.

After 10 minutes, she opened her digital watch again, this time to call a certain number. The ringtone went on for 3 seconds before the other side picked up, an old voice spoke slowly:

{How may I be of assistance, my lady?}

"Do you remember the government's case in which one of their bureaucrats was killed at the morgue? Tell them I'll be handling it in their stead." Ms.Evernight cut to the chase and stated her purpose for calling right away.

{Is it the case that they hid from the public, my lady?}

"Yeah." She answered curtly.

{May I ask why do you suddenly take an intere-}

"Shut up." She interjected the other side coldly.

{...Pardon me my lady, what you require is a bit difficult but it shall be done as quickly as possible.} The voice on the other side sounded slightly more frightened than before.

Beep!

Ms.Evernight turned off the watch and absentmindedly gazed out at the window to view the bright blue sky.

5 seconds later, her lips formed a bewitching and dangerous smile that would send anyone a chill down that person's spine. She spoke quietly in a slightly pleased tone:

"...Found you."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"ACHOO!"

'Shit...Did I get sick or something?' Achilles thought to himself while scratching his nose.

He was currently in a public bus that was driving to a location near his next destination.The gaze that he had felt earlier was gone by now, he assumed that he had managed to cut his tail. As long as he be careful from now on, those who were following him shouldn't be able to find him and he would be safe.

The bus soon stopped at a certain street and Achilles paid the fee to the bus driver using his card, then walked out of the transportation.

He glanced left and right for a while before turning left and continued walking for a few minutes.

He soon arrived at a large store with a sign that was written "William's Weaponry". Achilles walked to the door and it automatically moved aside to let him in. As soon as he stepped foot in the shop, a staff arrived next to him while asking in an amiable tone:

"Welcome to William's Weaponry sir! How may I help you?"

Achilles turned his body to look at the man for a second, then shifted his gaze around the store while saying:

"I need a weapon."

"Of course! May I ask what type do you prefer?"

"One-handed battle axe." Achilles said evenly.

"Very well! Please follow me." The worker started walking away in a particular direction with Achilles who was looking around the store curiously.

"Here they are sir, please have a look." The employee said after arriving at the section where the axes were displayed.
