Chapter 92 - Can I join your party?

Within the compound of the night club of Diabolical, four people were currently inside namely a twin with one having long hair while the other shorter in front of them was Hank Sparrow, the manager of the bar.

He was looking at the two slightly annoyed as they started to get drunk by the effect of the alcohol. However, Hank kept his cool and cleaned the shot glasses.

"Shouldn't you two continue your investigation?"

Hank asked, wanting them to stop considering they still have work to do. He couldn't help but sigh how his goddaughter worked alone and stuck with this two idiots. 

"Nah, bossing said she was still waiting for Captain Guerrero update. So we have time to kill."

"Right? I mean she should join us to calm her nerves!"

"*Sigh*....I can't believe she's stuck with you two all the time. You know I wish she gets someone soon or it's going to kill her."

He was afraid that his goddaughter would be taking her responsibility too seriously, forgetting that she has her own life and things to choose for herself.

Though, there is no one else beside them that is capable of placing balance but still would be better if she has time for herself.

'Well she's still young but…that also means it's best for to live her life. Hope God can listen to my prayer and bring someone to her life."

At that simple words, the sound of viscous liquid could be heard and the twin immediately conjure a mask in their faces with a smile and sad face before guns appear in their hands pointing at the visitor

Hank joined in and took out a shotgun directed at their guest who slowly reformed turning into the stature of a young man wearing a black trench coat and sinister looking mask. He had long black messy hair that reached his shoulder. 

His presence was rather suffocating that one wrong move would be their end, despite only standing without saying a word. 

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen."

The young man was none other than Ryuu who had changed his voice into a more suited tone like Madara or Alucard. He tilted his head then looked up to see the one he was looking for.

"Who are you and what purpose do you have for being here?"

"Yeah or you'll get blasted by a billion bullets!"

"Double that! Now speak!"

"My my no need to rush, call me Yaldabaoth, it's a pleasure meeting you. I'm here to ask a few things for you in exchange for my assistants."

Ryuu could easily steal what he needed but being ignorants regarding supernatural in his world would be extremely bad to act hastily even if his [ Intuition ] told him to but fortunately it wasn't. 

They looked at him confused and bewildered at what he said. Their faces obviously didn't believe him since he arrived uninvited. 

"What's going on here!? Who is this person?"

Soon they saw a young woman come down that was cautiously looking at him with magical energy seemingly gathering with her hands and an item in her pocket leaking of magical energy.

She took out a wavy knife that radiates [ Aura ] which was unusual as rather than  envelope by the young women, it actually had its own Aura which means that there's a soul residing in the weapon.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Yaldabaoth and I only wish for a few things from you in exchange for my assistance."

The young woman, Alexandra Trese remains on guard looking at him feeling compelled to listen to his words and offer. Furthermore, she naturally felt that if he wanted then they all could be dead.

"Bossing what should we do? Gun him down?"

"No, I'm willing to listen since he seems to have no intention of fighting us."

"Are you sure? I agree with Basilio here."

The twins complained finding it easier to kill him while Trese inwardly sighed looking at the two before turning her attention back to Ryuu who was looking around. 

"Should we trust him? I feel off looking at him."

"I'm unsure but there is nothing beside learning a thing or two about him."

They were whispering unaware that Ryuu could hear them fine before vanishing from where he was, shocking everyone making them panic then turning to see him sitting. 

"Now I believe I'm not here for a fight miss??"

"Alexandra Trese."

"Trese…"

Ryuu muttered hearing the irony that his last name is fifth while her's is sixth. He chuckled under his mask making them look at him weirdly while Alexandra slightly offended but remained stoic under her facade.

"Did I say something funny?"

"No, it's that I like God, does not play dice and does not believe in coincidence."

He quotes a quite famous speech by a vendetta. His answer did not satisfy trese but only made her grow curious about who he was.

"Why don't you have a seat? Perhaps some wine to ease your nerves??"

Trese only looked at him before sitting down boldly showing that she wasn't afraid of whoever he was and willing to fight him. Ryuu admired her bravery since if their position were switched then he wouldn't be too trustful. 

"Hank, can you please bring some wine for our guest? I have a few things that I want to ask."

Her godfather nodded, trusting her heading his way to take a wine bottle pouring them in a wine glass. The twins remain behind her with their guns pointed at him. Trese made a mental note on how he was unbothered by the guns pointed at him. 

"I must say that you're quite a brave person for taking a seat and trusting me."

"You caught my interest and your stunt earlier shows you easily dispatched us."

"Clever girl unlike those two behind you."

""Hey!""

The twin is annoyed at his remark while Ryuu only chuckle before leaning forward to start speaking about his reason for being there.

"Now for business, I have recently been ignorant to the supernatural up until recently and wanted to learn a thing or two from you. I believe you met me a few days ago."

"You're the one who massacred all those human traffickers?"

Trese exclaimed, recalling the gruesome left by him. Though, she shed no pity knowing they were horrible people still felt remorse for their family uninvolved. 

"Yes, and no, I have no regret killing them since they could harm more people and get away with it if I let them live. Furthermore, you've seen that one of them was a demon contractor."

"A quite a strong one as well. I take it that you've learned from that person about the supernatural?"

"A few years like the three realms of Underworld, Terra Mundo or our world, and Afterworld or afterlife but I guess there's more to it, correct? That's why I'm eager to find answers and my intuition tells me you're at the center of it all."

Ryuu could feel that she's like a Protagonist and knows that there's going to be a big event eventually. Trese is slightly surprised that he is able to deduce it rather easily and wonders if he is lying for being ignorant.

"You have the basic and most things about the supernatural you hear from anyone is the truth. The only thing you are missing is the Skyworld."

"Skyworld? Interesting, care to elaborate?"

Ryuu twirls his wine glass taking a sip directly to his mask which was made from his biomass, surprising the twin.

"How the hell are you drinking?"

"Bossing, are you sure about telling him these things?"

"I'll handle it. Now it's your turn. What can you offer?"

"I have a wide connection and can gather information you're not able to access. Would that suffice?" 

"Give me an example then perhaps I'll reconsider."

"Here…"

He took out a folder from his inventory surprising them before looking at the papers that were full of images and information.

"I've made my subordinate investigate the supernatural and recently found information regarding Mayor Sancho…"

Ryuu should have CCTV footage of a politician being handed by something that made Trese intently stare at it. He smiled, once again sipping wine.

"I see this just confirmed something. Thank you."

"No problem but I still request a payment. It is simply that I want a library regarding anything to the supernatural. I think it's a fair trade for my assistance. Of course, I'm not just an informant, I could asl-"

As he was about to finished his words was interrupted by the sound of phone ringings as Trese took her phone and answered it giving a small nodded.

"Basilio, Crispin, come with me."

"Yes bossing!"

"Can I join your party?"
