Bloody Roses.

After seeing Jane's bleak expression, Ralph decided to stop teasing the girl, that must have been enough to teach her a lesson.

Ralph and Aoi ate a strawberry pie and then started talking.

"I hear you have joined the golden inspectors ..." Aoi suddenly spoke as she narrowed her eyes.

"You really do have an impressive information network." Ralph smiled.

"I received a message from Touka-san this morning, she told me about it." Aoi explained.

"I see ... Anyway, I believe I will be able to pay what I owe you quickly in one way or another." Ralph suddenly took out his cell phone and spoke with a smile.

"... You know, that manual is not very valuable, if you think our agreement is unfavorable, you can just forget about it." Aoi stood up as he said.

"You got it wrong. I don't care about the value of the manual in the eyes of others ... but rather the value it has for me. If it weren't for you, maybe I would still be lost and that manual was extremely useful for my practice." Ralph shook his head and said.

Aoi frowned as she looked at Ralph.

"So ... Do you want a mission?" Aoi rolled his eyes as he asked.

"For when?" Ralph asked back, he already had something scheduled.

"...Now." Aoi spoke and took a paper out of the backpack.

"I was wondering if I should really propose that to you, but now I made up my mind." Aoi smiled slightly and handed the paper to Ralph.

Ralph read what was written on the paper and looked at Aoi in surprise.

"Do you think I'm going to take that chance for so little !?" Ralph spoke in a low tone and ground his teeth.

"Maybe before I fell for your acting, but now that I've seen that side of your personality, I won't be fooled easily." Aoi spoke and gave Ralph a light flick on the forehead.

"I don't know what you're talking about ... Anyway, do you think I'm capable?" Ralph decided to end the little hoax.

"Maybe, maybe not ... The choice is yours if you will accept ... But if the mission is a success, my father and I agreed to give you five life stones." Aoi spoke.

"I don't know if Life Stones are as useful to me now as they were before ... I'm already in the second stage of Aura Flow. I opened up my transcendent sense and am practicing a complementary art." Ralph thinks the reward is not good enough.

"... You are the really mutant, as well as an anomaly. Your growth rate is really fast." Aoi was shocked for a moment and sighed.

"Even if that's the case, life stones can help you strengthen your Aura and increase your control."

"The problem is that I cannot temporarily strengthen my Aura ... through practice." Ralph shook his head.

"How problematic." Aoi looked tired and sat down again.

"What you want?" Aoi asked.

"Knowledge ... Wasn't that the reason I approached you from the start?" Ralph spoke slowly.

"Do you want other manuals? But they won't be useful to you for now ... Or do you want general knowledge? Or rather, common sense?" Aoi suddenly noticed something.

"What is common sense for you is not for me. And it is not just common sense that I desire, I also want to know about various secrets." Ralph smiled bitterly.

"But I thought Touka had already agreed to help you with this." Aoi was confused.

"Certainly, but two people cannot know exactly the same things, especially if they come from different families ... I want to know everything you know, Life Stones are just a bonus for me for now."

Aoi started to curl her finger with a fringe of hair, seeming to think deeply.

"There are things I can't tell you at all, but other than that ... I'll give you the knowledge you want." Aoi said with his eyes closed.

"So ... In place of life stones, I will give you a very important book."

"Which book?" Ralph was curious.

"One who will teach you most of the common sense of this world, I guarantee you that. Besides, he is not common and has a certain value, you must be careful with him."

After saying this, Aoi stood up and said:

"See you later, I hope good news, Ralph-san. We won't have class for the rest of the week, the teacher said that while you were sleeping."

"See you later ..." Ralph also stood up.

Despite saying goodbye, the two paid the bill and walked together to the exit, and only separated when they reached the sidewalk.

"I think I forgot something? What is it?" Ralph murmured and suddenly remembered Jane.

"Should I go back and explain how I want the pie?" Ralph considered for a moment to return.

"No, I have something important to do."

After taking a taxi and arriving at the apartment, Ralph prepared to leave. He wore the white kimono he had bought and equipped himself with two short blades and the revolver.

After putting on the mask, Ralph remembered the mission from before, he infiltrated a highly guarded building.

"The mission is totally different this time." Ralph looked at his cell phone. He had received a proposal on the 'BatSnake' profile.

A customer deposited a thousand dollars and asked for information on the location of an arms store from the organization 'Bloody Roses', one of the three largest forces in the Tokyo underworld.

Ralph heard about this organization through a drug dealer before, along with information about 'Blue Sky' and 'Great Desolate', the other two major forces in the Tokyo underworld.

It seems that Bloody Roses is trying to accumulate military power, as they are not famous for being militarily strong.

Ralph thinks the payout is small compared to the mission level, but he needs to establish prestige first before charging higher prices.

He also received a message from Ikki, saying that he will have to report to the golden inspectors' HQ the next day, so nothing could go wrong on this mission.

After finishing the preparations, Ralph disappeared, any trace of Ralph including Aura disappeared. Of course, if there is an Aura Master strong enough, Ralph can be easily detected.

But Ralph knows he is dealing with an organization made up of normal people, or at least on the surface. So there shouldn't be too many dangers in the mission.

After a period of time, in a narrow alley in Tokyo, under the light of the full moon, Ralph reappeared.

-I finally found some clues when interrogating some drug dealers, they take me to this casino.

Ralph looked ahead.

There was an illegal casino in an apparently abandoned building in an ordinary Tokyo alley.

Ralph took a deep breath and became invisible again.

After easily entering the casino, Ralph saw many types of people ... prostitutes, murderers, drug addicts and gamblers, even influential figures in politics.

-The place is certainly popular and lively.

Ralph thought while analyzing the environment, he was looking for the next victim, it needs to be someone clearly important.

After an hour of observation, Ralph started to pay attention to a fat man dressed in a suit in a corner. The man had a woman on each arm and one giving him a blowjob.

No one at the casino seemed to dare to do anything with prostitutes openly, except this man.

Ralph didn't care about the prostitute doing her job and simply disagreed the man and the prostitutes with a blow. Of course, that while using his ability to isolate the area. In the view of others, the fat man was simply enjoying the prostitute's job.

He then started taking the four of them to an isolated area and, after that, he manipulated the illusion to make it look like the four wanted a more private place.

"How strange, I thought that fat man would like to fuck the bitches in front of the others ..." One person murmured.

After a few minutes, the four woke up and looked around in shock.

There was a man in white robes and a mask looking at them, he looked like a ghost.

"Who are you? Who sent you?" The man asked in a panic.

Ralph pulled out the gun and pointed at the man.

"If you don't want to die, answer my questions."

"What you want to know?" The man swallowed his own saliva.

"Where is your HQ?" Ralph asked.

The man didn't seem to know what to say.

Ralph pretended to shoot one of the women, killing her. In fact, he just disagreed with her, but the others didn't know about it and panicked.

Seeing how cold-blooded Ralph is, the man started to shake and said:

"Wait, don't kill me ... I say what you want to know."

After that, Ralph easily got two key pieces of information. The first is the location of the Bloody Rose HQ, the other is the arms supplier to the organization. The man did not know the location of the weapons depot.

-This information must be kept extremely secret ... I need to decide my target, it's getting late ...

Ralph thought.

He woke everyone up again and left the casino calmly, passing in front of the armed guards as if it were wind.

-If I go to HQ, I may find Aura Masters, who may be much stronger than me ... But if I go to the weapons supplier, I can get the information I want.

Ralph decided.

After running for a while, he arrived at the location pointed out by the fat man.

Again, it was an abandoned building.

Ralph noticed movement behind the building and saw several trucks being loaded with boxes.

"Hurry up, you need to make this delivery before midnight, or else it will rain red roses here." A strong man shouted at the others, he seemed to be a kind of leader.

Ralph first used his tranceful sense, and was surprised to feel an awakened Aura coming from two men.

-Two Aura Masters ... Have they noticed my existence?

Ralph looked at the men.

One of them seemed distracted, but the other ... was looking at Ralph with a threatening expression.

-The distracted shouldn't be a problem, but this guy ... He makes me feel incredible pressure.

-My advantage is my invisibility and the fact that he only has an impression of my location, not being able to have an exact idea.

-This is the advantage of being able to restrict my Aura, it becomes more difficult to detect me accurately.

Ralph knew that he could not approach abruptly, as this would only alert the enemy further.

He was at a distance of 15 meters from the Aura Master that worries him, so he can use the revolver, but the others can escape while he deals with the other Aura Master.

"Attention, we have an intruder!" The Aura master with a threatening expression shouted.

-Tsk, it took me too long to make a decision.

Ralph didn't hesitate anymore and shot Aura Master, who tried to protect himself when he felt the danger, but it was slow and the bullet pierced his skull.

Everyone was scared.

"A sniper !? Hide yourself!" One of the men shouted.

At the same time, another shot took the life of the other Aura Master.

The leader realized that the enemy first attacked the Aura Masters, and understood that the enemy was an Aura Master as well.

"Run away, it's an Aura Master!"

Everyone panicked and started running, including the leader.

Ralph sighed and started running after the leader.

The man was running fast, and Ralph had a hard time catching up with him.

After ten minutes of chasing, the man looked back, and when he saw no one, he let out a breath.

But before he could be happy, he felt a pain in his neck, and passed out.

"I am really getting proficient with this."

-Outside I killed two men, despite being Aura Masters ...

Ralph dragged the man to an abandoned house and threw a bucket of water at him, which is actually an illusion. Despite this, the man woke up due to the thermal shock.

"I thought you would sleep until dawn." Ralph spoke.

"Who are you!?" The man shouted.

"There's no use shouting, no one will hear you."

"You better let go, do you know who I am?"

Ralph thought this was funny and slapped the man in the face.

"Now you are nothing more than just a man."

The man was furious and said:

"You are going to die, I guarantee it."

Ralph then drew his revolver.

"Do you really think that threatening will work? You can kill me." The man laughed.

Ralph was silent for a moment and then said:

"Your daughter is really cute."

The man's expression changed and he reached into his pocket for the wallet, just not to find it.

"Do you want to threaten my family? Haha, they are in a safe place."

Ralph smiled slightly and said:

"Your wife is really a beauty."

"Hmph ...!"

"I think I should have fun with them." Ralph then snapped his fingers, and a bald man dressed in a suit and two women entered the room they were in. One of the women had golden hair and looked over thirty. The other appeared to be a teenager, with brown hair.

"Boss, did you call me?" The bald man asked.

Ralph said nothing and just looked at the shocked expression of the man looking at the two women.

"So, are they in a safe place?" Ralph asked as he kicked the man.

"You bastard, how are you !? They are innocent!"

"Hey you, go have fun with both of them, I want to hear the moans." Ralph spoke to the bald man, and the two women were terrified and started to cry.

"No! Don't do anything with them!" The man shouted.

Ralph kicked the man again and said:

"The choice is yours, I believe my subordinate will take a few seconds before ... You know. If you tell me what I want to know, I can stop it."

"Bastard!!" The man shouted.

Suddenly, a moan started to sound, but it was only male.

"It seems that my subordinate started to get excited, what about them? How long will it take for them to feel excited and start moaning?" Ralph spoke.

The man couldn't take it anymore and cried with tears in his eyes:

"Okay! I'll say anything I want to. Know, but tell him to stop!"

"Did you hear the man's cry? Stop!" Ralph shouted.

"What you want to know?" The man asked as he looked at Ralph with hatred.

"All." Ralph replied.

"What !?"

"Everything you know about Bloody Roses, including where they keep their guns."

...

After a long interrogation, Ralph finally got the information he needed.

After that, Ralph tied the man in a corner so that he cannot alert the enemy, it will take him a while to get free.

Ralph then went in a certain direction, and after half an hour he reached his destination.

- Another abandoned building?

Ralph sighed.

After analyzing the environment, he noticed that the weapons were kept in boxes on the second floor of the building, kept by many men. Ralph did not dare to take chances and get too close, and just took a picture with his cell phone and sent it to the customer along with the location.

After five minutes, the payment was released by the website and fell into Ralph's virtual account.

[I liked your speed, I hope to do more business with you in the future.] The customer texted Ralph.

Ralph blew out a breath and smiled. He finally finished the mission, it was late and he needs to go home.

After walking for about five minutes, Ralph suddenly heard a loud crash coming from the direction of the weapons depot. And also the sound of gunshots.

"Damn, so fast !?" Ralph murmured in surprise.

...

The other day, he was on the news about an explosion that occurred in an old building, authorities say it was an explosion caused by natural gas.

Ralph got up from the bed calmly and yawned.

After getting up, Ralph brushed his teeth and did something to eat and saw the news on his cell phone.

- Certainly, the official authorities try everything to hide the existence of the Aura Masters.

Ralph then took a shower and dressed in normal clothes.

-I'll spend the rest of the morning practicing at home, I'll only stop when it's time to go to the golden inspectors' HQ.
