The five approaching them reached before them, and as both sides stopped, Werzelya moved a bit forward, probably to introduce both sides.
Now, Victor stood at a height of 6’1 feet, and he had an average body size like someone who trains regularly. If he was to take off his shirt, then the fine muscles underneath would show a man with quite the fighter’s physique. Right now however, Victor was wearing a set of trouser, and a pretty fine plane black shirt with amazing quality, and an amazing looking black coat of unknown material. Of course, these clothes, he got from Ramok’s stash.
The person in the middle of the five people approaching, compared to Victor, was simply a giant of a man, if he was a man(human) that is. He would easily reach a height of 12’0 feet, double of Victor’s. His body itself was something to write home about, as he was completely covered in muscles, and the clothes he was wearing did nothing to cover the muscles.
Looking at the man and those around him, Victor couldn’t help but think if this was some kind of planned event where he was supposed to be oppressed by them. They clearly weren’t wearing their usual outfits, as Victor could easily tell that these were battle clothes.
‘Suspicious.’ He said in his mind.
Werzelya began the introductions, and after saying to everyone that Victor was Crow, she was cut off by the giant before she made another sentence.
“You? Are the Crow?” The man asked, his voice deep and raspy. To that, Victor just remained quiet and kept his eyes locked with the man.
“You don’t look like much.” The man said.
Hearing the man, Werzelya was quick to try and avoid any unwanted situation. “Hey! Idiot! Show some respect!” She said with some anger in her voice. Whether it was anger or fear, it wasn’t clear through her tone, but her reaction to the situation was quite unexpected as the others developed a certain look on their faces.
‘Seeing as the others don’t seem to have the guts to rebook her, it means they aren’t really important people as I had thought.’ Victor said in his mind. ‘How about-‘
“What do you mean Werzelya, this worm definitely has no po-” As the man said this, Werzelya felt the slightest spike in Victor’s aura, as she felt something really sinister behind her and could stop herself from fully turning around to look at Victor.
‘What was that just now? And, he’s even angry? Maybe I’m-‘ She said in her mind as she faced Victor. But then, she heard the sound of something drop behind her, and it sounded like a body just dropped, a big body in fact. Werzelya slowly turned her head back as her upper body followed, and then she could fully see what had just happened.
“I was going to warm him, but I just didn’t have the patience. Who is he by the way?” Victor asked, in a usual calm voice like nothing bothered him.
Werzelya could only turn back her attention towards Victor who had began walking forward, her face also had shock written all over it. She couldn’t help but think that it could’ve been her that would have died like that the first day they met. ‘How did he do this?” She asked in her mind. ‘Is he head? I did feel that strange energy.’
“H-he, he, he is the leader of our organization.” She said, still not fully calm after what just happened. It was just so unexpected. This was someone she would consider a bit stronger than herself, and to think that he would die like this.
As though to confirm Werzelya’s words, Victor could also hear the four that came with the so called leader mentioning repeatedly that the leader was dead, so that confirmed it.
‘He definitely was trying to be on some power play kind of shit. Unfortunately, I don’t have time for that.’ Victor said in his mind. To top it off, unlike the vampires, Victor didn’t really have a plan for the organization, so he didn’t care what they did. The big gate he saw did pique his interest a little, so maybe now he would see what it was for.
“No need to worry about dead men, take me to the vice immediately.” Victor said to Werzelya. Before she answered however, someone appeared above the giant’s corpse, as though examining it.
Victor just stared at the human figure for a bit, but he could immediately tell that the creature that looked like a teenage human female wasn’t in fact human at all.
“I am the leader here.” The girl said, as she floated towards Victor and Werzelya like she was standing in air.
“Maggie, this is The Crow.” Werzelya said as she faced the approaching girl.
“I can see that Werzelya.” She said, before turning towards Victor. “It’s nice to make your acquaintance, Crow. We here have heard some things about you and even sent one of us to contact you, but it seems as though that is no longer necessary.” She said with a slight bow at the beginning.
Her body looked normal, just like that of a 15 year old teenage human female, and her looks weren’t bad, but not particularly good to say the least. She also spoke in an almost mono toned voice, and didn’t show a single emotion in her expression.
“You aren’t human are you?” Victor asked, after she was done with what she had to say.
Of course, he used the system to identify what kind of creature she was, but just like most times the system wasn’t very informative about what exactly she was. According to the system, she was an evolved carnivorous plant, but what Victor was looking at currently was more than that. She was also level 130, and that was at least the highest he had seen in any human, but she wasn’t human right? Nevertheless, it was very high for this world’s standards. That meant she wasn’t ordinary enough to just be an evolved carnivorous plant monster.
“What are you?” Victor asked, and for the first time since Werzelya knew Maggie, she felt a trace of emotion from her.
‘Not again.’
