Red Pepper 2

Two hours later, Dante was back at his house and decided to take a bath to freshen up.

°°°°°°

At the same time inside Red Pepper's private chamber, in her bedroom.

She was dressed in a lascivious negligee! She lay face down and sent him a flirtatious glance. A see-through cloth that made heavy use of lace.

The white skin was slightly seen underneath it! And black underwear! The hem of the skirt that anxiously moved down from the bent knee seemed it would be turned up at any moment.

Suddenly, a shadow materialized beside the bed, it was one of Red Pepper's subordinates.

''Have you found anything on the boy?"

''I'm sorry leader but I'm unable to find anything very useful on him. He just appeared a few days ago and before this there is nothing.''

''I see. Let's not focus on his past before he arrived in this city. Just fill me in on what he did after coming into town.'' Red Pepper ordered after hearing her subordinate's first report. She was not that disappointed as she had expected something like this. The young man seemed shrouded in mystery during their meeting, talking less but observing everything, he didn't play her game nor he completely refused her advances, as if he had a goal in mind which is a good thing.

While Red Pepper was lost in her thoughts, her subordinate observed for a moment before continuing with her report.

''He went to the Fallen's Sanctum to get baptized before registering at the Hunter association and he got a special Hunter's license as he did extremely well during his test. It was the vice guild master who personally tested him.''

"Wow!''

Red Pepper was genuinely shocked because she tested the young man and upon learning that he was but just a Level 1 Novice Awakener who recently got baptized, she could not help but re-evaluate the young man. There is one absolutely certain thing, this young is not from an ordinary background. One would need a considerable amount of resources to produce someone like that. As for the vice guild master of Sunset's city Hunter association personally testing him, it further confirms the young man's extraordinary background.

''Have he entered any dungeon yet?" Red Pepper asked while doing her best to calm down her growing curiosity about the young man's background.

''Not yet.''

''I see. We must keep watching, besides I have my way of obtaining information. I make him a slave, I will invite him next time and make use of this opportunity, he is worth it after all. We must have talent like him at all costs.''

Red Pepper's subordinate nodded but she had a question.

''Should we inform Lady Athena?"

Red Pepper's mood soured when the name of this lady was brought up.

''No need to inform my sister yet, she is busy running the guild, besides we are here on a mission given by her. Let's be sure first before informing her. You won't want to disappoint her no?''

''I understand. But was it wise to admit having no real connection with the Black Star organization?"

''Well, we don't have any real connection with them anyway, the gang is just acting as a scapegoat and someone with a little bit of brain would have understood. We are a gang specialized in collecting information, I'm luring them more specifically him to rely on us. It was to say he would not find any better place for information than mine and smart as he is he must have understood but he didn't have the choice. He will come back.''

Red Pepper seemed extremely sure that she will be the winner in this little game with Dante. She had successfully piqued his interest as he appeared to be curious about her hence his tactic to not completely refuse her, he even accept a special pass she gave him. Like she said earlier during their next meeting she would make him fall deeper into her hands never to escape again. Maybe with him, things would change once she go back home.

Her subordinate nodded and was preparing to leave when she remembered something and stopped.

''Vince and Ron have disappeared.'' She announced and Red Pepper who heard this leisurely crossed her legs, not worried.

''Those two idiots what are they trying to do?"

''Plotting to teach the young man a lesson as they know they can't beat Irina.''

''Those fools.'' Red Pepper lamented and her subordinate wondered if she should stop them.

''Should I stop them?"

''No, just observe.'' Red Pepper shook her head much to her subordinate's shock. She even added.

''Slid these cards in their pockets just in case.''

Red Pepper threw two black cards at the woman in black who instantly understood her boss's goal and she could not help but pity those two idiots who their leader had just sentenced to death, she was even offering compensation to their murderer.

After taking the two credit cards the woman in black vanished.

''I can't wait to make you mine Dante Orion White.'' Red Pepper declared while licking her lips, she felt hot, an unknown flame was rising inside her and she hadn't felt like this in quite some time.
