Chapter 170 169. Rebellious Phase.

Louie paced around the underground facility's main hall, wondering if Eshwar was still depressed about Quinn's death, Eshwar had been holed up in his room for a month, not showing his face much and only coming out if he had any requests from the clients.

He would sometimes have a crazed expression on his face that would send chills down their spines, and the air around him had turned threatening, even though he wasn't showing.... No, he was clearly showing outside that something had happened and that only he would be the one to take action.

"Haaa...." Louie sighed and glanced at Eshwar's room.

'He calls me big brother, yet doesn't talk to me, how am I supposed to help you if I don't know what's going on with you?' Louie thought.

He sighed deeply, walked towards the his room and knocked on the door.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK

"Come in." Eshwar's voice sounded behind the door.

CLUNK

"What's going o...." Louie wanted to ask if anything was going with him, but halted at the sight.

Eshwar sat leisurely on the beanbag with his legs rested on the armchair and was moving the pawns on the chess board which was positioned on the table, with telekinesis or so it seemed because Louie couldn't feel any mana. He was dressed in a black suit, black gloves, and a white mask; it was.... how to describe it.... It was quite a bizarre scene with the suit and his way of sitting leisurely, anyway whatever, but he gave off a noble like aura that made everyone want to be respectful towards him.

"Done checking me out? What do you want?" Eshwar asked with a blank face which wasn't visible because of his mask, maybe that's why he wore it.

".....are you alright?" Louie asked with a worried look on his face.

"Hm? What nonsense? Of course I'm alright." Eshwar furrowed his brows at Louie and replied.

'Does he not want to talk about it?' Louie questions himself looking at Eshwar's 'frown.'

"Anyway, I'll be going out." Eshwar answered as he stood back up and adjusted his suit.

"Now? It's already night." Louie mumbled.

"That's exactly why." Eshwar said and walked past Louie.

'Haa.... he's acting like a kid in his rebellious phase.' Louie sighed inwardly.

***

In sector seven.

In a busy bar, a handsome black haired and black-eyed man sat at the centre table, drinking the most expensive drink in the bar, wearing a simple black shirt with top three buttons unbuttoned, black gloves and black trousers, he looked like a model who had just been fired from the company he worked for, because he appeared irritated.

All the women in the bar were drawn to him, whether they were with a partner or not, and there was a peculiar beautiful woman who sat on the corner table with the expression of someone who bore all the world's responsibility.

She wore a mini dress that emphasized her long legs and she had light blonde hair and ocean blue eyes, as well as delicate facial features and an hourglass figure. In front of her was a bulky looking man who appeared to be a delinquent, and the scene appeared to be a delinquent bothering a beauty, but nobody dared to bother them because the man had his muscles tensed up.

'Haa...how the hell did this man find me!! He's spoiling my night!' Faye Clayton contemplated while massaging her brow with her index and thumb fingers. She was a Rank-A hero and the vice-guild master of the 'Moon Guard Guild,' which is ranked ninth out of the top ten guilds in the world.

"Give me one chance. Go out with me for a month and if you don't like it, you can leave me! If you go out with me, I can put in a good word about your guild and make both of our guilds form an alliance if you want, please? Hm?" Alvin Collins asked, pleadingly, but Faye knew better because he just wanted her body and would leave her after he had his 'fun.' Alvin Collins was a squad captain for the 'Hunters Guild,' which is ranked second among the top ten guilds in the world.

'Tsk, disgusting son of a bit*h, at least hide your intentions first.' Faye thought as she stared at his lips curl up into a disgusting smile.

'If not for that son of a bit*h of a guild master, I wouldn't have met him in the first place!' She thought, lowered her head and her gaze moved to the black haired man who had a irritated look on his face.

'Who is he?' She thought because her gaze would somehow make its way to him even when she wasn't trying to, there was a certain charm about him that made her gaze move towards him and suddenly an dark grey haired woman walked into the bar with sensual steps, she looked around, her gaze stopped at the handsome black haired man and walked towards him.

The woman had dark grey hair and dark brown eyes, smooth facial features, and an hourglass figure; nothing stood out about her, but she had her own special allure. She was dressed sensually in a black mini dress with black netted stockings, and she walked and sat in front of the black-haired man, who furrowed his brows at her and leaned forward on the table before pushing his drinks towards her.

WHISTLE

"Damn, she's sexy." Alvin Collins mumbled with a whistle.

"They are one damn hot couple." The women who was leaning against the wall next to Faye mumbled to herself and those who heard her despite the loud music nodded their heads.

'He was already taken? Haa... As expected, there is no way such handsome man would be single.' Faye thought and shook her head, but her gaze was still drawn towards the black haired man.

CREAK

"Fuu..." A alcoholic cold breath blew near Faye's right ear which sent her creeps.

"What?" She jerked to the left and pushed whatever was next to her; she suddenly felt a grasp on her right wrist; only then did she realize that Alvin had moved close to her while she was focused on the black-haired man; Alvin, who had gotten a hold of her hands, looked at her with lustful eyes.

"Let go." Faye frowned and tried to break free from his grip, but as she did so, she felt something rough on her thigh, she flinched and tried to get up but couldn't, she looked down at her thigh and saw Alvin's hand crawling up, she shivered at the sight and wanted to scream for help, but....

She suddenly felt afraid to....

Ask for help.

'Help!' She screamed, inwardly and tightly closed her eyes, nothing cruised in her mind in that situation, she could have used mana to escape, but even a thought about it didn't come to her mind. The woman who stood behind her just noticed her distress and....

"What're you doing?"
