The Immortal Sword Valley was always cold and gloomy in the winter. The fog would beco heavy, further concealing the base of the brigade operations. The thick fog also lent a mysterious air to the location, making it seem like a forgotten city.
The ancient samurais, who had fought for justice and stood against both fiends and feudal lords, had chosen the area for this reason. The untad land and the depth of the valley made it the perfect hiding place for heroes of justice.
Unfortunately, dark and gloomy places were also the perfect hiding places for the wicked.
In one of the rooms in the valley, one of the valued agents was looking at the latest news on his reliable channels with unconcealed anger. He could not bear the thought that his carefully crafted plan to punish his foe and gain a foothold in the underworld had gone awry.
He had thought that his plan was going to be a success when that Kaito disappeared into the thin air. He had beco complacent because Akira was helpless. Even though she had the Immortal Sword Brigade behind her, she could not guard herself.
Furthermore, as she got further along in her pregnancy, she beca slower. The hunt beca even more exciting for the people on Watch. He had even activated the dead pool feature to make the ga interesting for the clients.
Unfortunately, Akira disappeared.
The only thing that had kept a few people interested was the last fight when people blew up on the screen. The rocket launcher scene was the most played on the app, and it still attracted several people to his platform.
The disappearance had put a damper on his plans because Akira was his most popular prey. Perhaps, it was her vulnerability and tenacious spirit when she fought back that drew in the sick minds of his clients.
More and more people sent in ssages asking if the hunt on her would resu.
As a businessman, this person from the Immortal Sword Brigade had chosen not to depend on Akira only to get popularity on the dark web. Therefore, he had taken up a few more missions for people that were interested in getting their pound of flesh and a minute of entertainnt.
However, he could not find anyone who was as popular as Akira.
For that reason, he expended a lot of resources to find the location of the woman who he loathed from the bottom of his heart. After careful searches, he discovered she was in Supre City. Soone inadvertently took a photo of her on their phone, and she appeared in the background.
The discovery made him feel powerful and invincible.
He announced that the hunt was back and sent the information about the location to the affiliated rcenaries. Regrettably, before they could find her and lodge and attack, fresh news ca from Mountain Ridge.
Akira was back. And Kaito, that feared assassin, had returned with her.
How could the fallen agent accept the situation? It was like the world was against him. He had worked so hard to make a na for himself. But every ti he was close to the pinnacle, that Akira would take him down a notch.
No. He was not willing to give up.
A lot of people were not willing to take up the mission to hunt Akira. After all, a move against her would be a move against Kaito. But those who had the inside story would not hesitate to make their move. To these people, Kaito was a washed-out has-been.
According to the underworld rumour mill, the Shadow Brotherhood was a ss.
Kaito had lost control of the organisation, and it had been taken over by his second-in-command, Ayumi. Without the backing of the Shadow Brotherhood, Kaito could not do anything. He would never be able to fight back alone.
If enough people stood against him and Akira, the two would lose. They would not stand a chance.
The man at the Immortal Sword Valley kept typing at his computer. He released the information he knew about the Shadow Brotherhood. From what he had learned from his contacts, Ayumi had also lost control of the rcenaries.
Most of them wanted a renegotiation of their contract since leadership had changed. Others wanted to take the opportunity to take the helm of the organisation. One thing was certain. They did not have enough ti to care about Kaito's life and death, even if they had remaining loyalty.
The man worked through the night and got confirmation from a few groups that were willing to go to Mountain Ridge and launch an attack against Akira. The man could feel the Watch app reviving again to that ti when that man contacted him.
Speaking of which, that man had not contacted him for a long ti.
The agent was not worried about him, but he did not want to lose such a valuable client. He checked the website where they first reached out and found that the ID was scrubbed. Usually, that ant that the user was dead.
The situation was a little sad, but it did not affect the agent too much. In the underworld, people died like flies, especially if they ssed with the wrong people. Luckily, they had no pending transactions, so all debts were already paid.
Unfortunately, sorting the matter with the rcenaries and establishing a plan to attack Akira did not suppress all of his problems. Hunting Akira was only a part of his marketing his app. If he wanted to get to the summit, he needed money to develop the platform further.
He massaged his temples in frustration.
A soft knock on the door indicated that there was a visitor. He closed all of his suspicious tasks on his computer and stood up. He opened the door and found Miki standing outside, looking at him with those coquettish eyes.
"Fuji, did you stay up all night again?" She asked with concern.
"You know how it is." Fuji laughed a little.
He was not an awkward guy, but he never knew how to deal with Miki normally when they were alone. They had gotten together countless tis because they were compatible on a ntal and physical level. However, they had never made things official.
The best way to describe them would probably be friends-with-benefits.
Fuji knew that Ryou, their team leader, had feelings for Miki. But a girl like Miki would not be interested in that type of guy. Even though she liked acting weak, she was not a damsel in distress in her heart. She was the type that preferred to be free of encumbrances.
Ryou was the type of guy that would start talking about forever as soon as he t a girl he liked.
"Is it ti for the team eting?" Fuji asked.
He did not have a watch, and the valley was too foggy to indicate the ti. The entire team planned to et up in the morning. They were heading out for a team-building exercise outside the valley.
"Not yet," Miki said as she stepped closer to Fuji and entered the room. "I just ca a little earlier to wake you up."
Fuji knew what she was up to, so he smiled a little. "Just to wake up?"
Miki laughed. "I need a little stress relief. No, I need pre-stress relief."
"What is pre-stress relief?" Fuji asked as he closed the door.
Miki looked at him with appreciation. Even though he looked a little rough from a sleepless night, he was still quite handso. He embodied everything she liked. He had a good body with just enough muscles and a sharp brain.
Moreover, he had a lot of evil tendencies that called out to her. Additionally, he was not clingy. She liked their relationship because it fulfilled all her physical and ntal needs. With a seductive smile, Miki pushed Fuji onto the bed.
"Pre-stress relief is a pre-emptive strike when you know soone is going to stress you out. If you use certain relaxation thods, you can put so stress relief in the bank." She pulled off Fuji's t-shirt.
"It is going to be a stressful day." Fuji agreed as he started touching Miki's perfect body. "I do need a lot of relief in the bank."
Miki pulled off her dress and exposed her sexy lingerie.
"You are naughty." She laughed at his words.
"Not more than you." Fuji was getting heated up as he looked at Miki and as she rubbed her fragrant self all over him.
"I still don't know why we had to involve those numbskulls in our plan. They are completely useless when it cos to planning and executing the core matters. Their only benefit is their use of brute force." She complained, but she did not stop her work.
"If we did not involve them, they might have suspected sothing and reported us," Fuji said in a hoarse voice. "Plus, we need a few patsies in case things go south."
"If you say so," Miki said with a moan. "By the way, I might have a possible investor for Watch."
"Are you sure? Be careful when dealing with this matter. Who knows if people are trying to lure us out?" Fuji said as shifted their positions so that he could be on top of her.
"Don't worry. I am being careful. This potential person is a Russian with well-known ties to the underworld and the technological world. I just got so rumour that he heard of Watch and might be interested. There has been no contact yet." She said as she moaned.
"Sounds promising. Let us keep it from the others. We should keep them busy with monitoring our affiliated rcenaries to avoid trouble." Fuji responded, his voice rough and gruff.
After that, the two people lost themselves in their intense battle.
