Outside the door, Silas clicked his tongue in irritation at the dismissal before he dusted himself off and shouted for someone to find him a gun! Silas had no idea who Henry was or what allowed him to use these strange powers, but from what Silas heard, Henry was something called a Djinn, and he had been sent here by Silas' boss to receive a shipment, so Silas had no choice but to put up with him regardless of how insufferable he was! Silas decided that he would try to take care of the intruders himself. If it didn't work, then he would lure them towards the Djinn so he would be the one to deal with them!
….
[Second District]
Dante clicked off the call once he was done, and he glanced at the system tab that had opened in front of him.
——
The user's subordinates are currently on a mission without the user's presence. The mission [Complete a Remote Mission] has been put into effect.
Mission Completion: 23%
——
Dante hummed at the tab, and he turned to his side when he saw Risa reach over gently to touch his cheek with her gloved hand. Both Dante and Risa had dressed up immaculately for this dinner. Dante was dressed in an all-black tuxedo with a silver Tourbillon wristwatch worth one and a half million dollars, and a solid gold pin on his chest that announced him as the boss of the family. But it was Risa's dress that would be turning a lot of heads tonight. Risa was dressed in the same midnight black as Dante, but her gown had been crafted in a way that showed every single curve and dip on her body while still giving her a modest grace. Her dress came up to her neck to form a choker around it, but there was a small slit at the center of her chest that showed some of her cleavage. On her hands, she had long black gloves that came up to her biceps, and there was a long slit on the left side of her dress that exposed her legs all the way up to her thigh.
To anyone else, the dress would only look like it had been carefully crafted to make Risa look as sexy as possible and Dante couldn't deny that she wore the dress like a fucking queen, but what people didn't know was that the slit on the left side of the dress was put there to allow Risa to move freely if a fight ever broke out and there was a gun strapped to her right thigh that was covered by the gown. The hole that showed her cleavage through her dress was there to allow her to pull a throwing knife out from between her breasts, and there were long knives hidden in the gloves she wore with another gun hidden in her black purse. Risa had geared up like a fucking soldier for this event, and Dante couldn't blame her for being extra careful. This was the first time Dante would be showing his face as the head of the family, and if there was anyone who didn't want him to take this position, this would be the perfect time for them to strike. Risa had to be ready for anything.
"You have dark circles, master."
Risa spoke up with worry on her face as she traced her gloved hand under Dante's eyes. There were tired lines running across Dante's eyes, and Risa frowned as she realized that Dante wasn't getting as much sleep as he used to. Dante's life was already hectic enough when he was the head of the Cleaners, and he didn't get much sleep then either. But now that Dante had to deal with the entire family, it was only getting worse! Dante put his hand over Risa's own, and he pulled her closer so he could lay a kiss on her lips.
"Mmh~"
Risa put her hand on Dante's chest and leaned into the kiss with enthusiasm, and Dante ran his hand down Risa's sexy body until he cupped her ass and squeezed it softly.
"Hah~ Master, we'll ruin our clothes~"
Even though Risa said this, she didn't try to stop Dante at all, and she was more than willing to keep going if he wanted them to, but Dante stopped and smiled at her before speaking.
"You don't need to worry about me. I've faced worse, so it's fine."
Risa didn't like how easily Dante was putting his own health aside, but she just had to nod and agree with her master. She couldn't force him to rest since he needed to do so much. Dante turned to the side and watched the scenes passing beside him, and he spoke up after a short silence.
"They're no longer following me."
Risa nodded to Dante's words since she noticed that Dante was right. The people that Dante was talking about were two strange spies who had been following Dante for the past few days. The first time Dante noticed them was after his father's funeral. They had been watching Dante and Risa when they came into the mansion, and after that, Dante had noticed them a few more times. They were at the airport when Dante was picking up Angie and Richie, and they were also at the intersection leading to Dante's house. Dante had never bothered to do anything about them since they didn't look like they were there to harm him, but he could sense now that they were no longer there. Dante told Risa to call the men that they had put on the spies and ask where they were, and Risa took out her phone to make the call.
'You said the spies are from this magic association you told me about, right? Tell me more about it.'
Dante asked this question to the system, and the system came up with an answer.
[There are various magical associations that exist in the Twilight world of magic, but there are two major associations that have an interest in acquiring the system. Their names are Veretax and Urus. Veretax is a group of Djinn led by a man known as Father. They are known for taking in young Djinn and training them into agents for the organization, and Urus is a more secretive organization that is filled with killers and assassins. Very little is known about Urus other than they are the hitmen of the Twilight world. The system does not know which of these two organizations the spies watching the user are a part of, but the system believes the user should be careful in case they are from Urus.]
Dante sighed calmly to calm himself. It was already bad enough that Dante had to deal with so many problems in the business, but now he also had to deal with people from a Twilight world of magic. Was the system really so important that these two organizations would be going out of their way just for it? Dante knew that the answer to that was yes.
[It is not a surprise that I am very sought after. After all, I am amazing.]
'Shut up. Why the hell would they even be after you? You're bonded to me, so how do they plan to take you from me?'
