Volume 5 Chapter 9 ACT.140 Backside (II)
Belta looked down at the busy streets of Shaura, weaving through the bright lights.
In the deeper shadows pushed away by the light, something moved.
A voice called out to stop that shadow, as if searching for something.
"──This way!"
The voice came from a woman standing at the entrance of an empty house, as if she had been left behind by the noise of Shaura.
She had long, black hair with a red gradient at the tips and deep crimson eyes.
Her outfit, revealing a lot of her chest, suggested she was in her late twenties, radiating a strange allure.
In response to her call, the shadow appeared in the moonlight.
Emerging from the darkness was a small person, entirely wrapped in a dark hooded cloak.
"Sorry, *Karin*. Did I keep you waiting?"
With a voice as cute as rolling bells, the person lifted their hood, revealing the face of a young girl.
"It's okay. And with how you look, it must be hard for you to come here, right?"
Her blue eyes and curly, platinum blonde hair looked like a western doll.
Indeed, it seemed out of place for this girl to be in the nightlife streets at midnight.
"The leader is already here."
The woman called Karin said that and invited the girl into the empty house.
Inside the house, there was no light, only moonlight streaming through the windows, illuminating the ruined interior.
Under the pale glow, a young man was leaning against the window frame, waiting for them.
With bright golden hair standing up like a lion's mane, he had a strong build and a sharp face.
As the leader, he stood tall, adjusting his posture when he noticed the two arriving.
"Good to see you both. It's been a while, but you both look well."
His manner was polite and gentle, not matching his tough appearance.
This showed he treated them not just as subordinates but as valuable, equal companions.
"Right away, can we have your report on the situation?"
"Sure, it's about a new supporter who joined us a little while ago..."
In the group of 3, Karin, who handles the investigations, was about to give her report when a girl dressed in all black raised her hand, interrupting her.
"Wait, before that, should we take care of those *creepy crawlies* around here?"
As the girl said this and cast her gaze towards the *ceiling*, something hidden began to move silently.
