[Savage Land, Antarctica]

"Where the hell is it?" a man screamed completely enraged while looking at his underlings. Looking at their superior's enraged expression, all of them cowered in fear and took a step back. ​​

"Don't be so barbaric with your men... After all, it isn't their fault that the metal is gone..." an older looking man scoffed from the side. The man looked like a noble and while the whole drama was going on he was simply sipping tea with a peaceful look on his face... like everything was fine.

The whole group might look like humans but they weren't humans. Their blue skin along with white markings on their bodies were the biggest clues. When the first man heard the older man's words he growled out loud in anger.

"It is me who will have to answer to his majesty!!" the first man said while gritting his teeth. The old man snorted with disdain and took a sip from his cup.

"Hah... As if a half-breed bastard would ever be our King" the old man snorted in disdain. Such words would have already earned him a death sentence but most soldiers stood exactly where they were and some even nodded their heads in agreement.

"You know, I should be executing you right now for such words" the first man said in a neutral tone. All of his anger was completely gone now...

"But you wouldn't... After all, you also loathe that half-breed bastard" the old man nodded with a smile on his face. The first didn't refute and simply stared towards the horizon.

"And that is why I don't want to disappoint that filth... I would be belittled in front of that filthy mongrel!! Sometimes... I wonder if it would have been better to kill that filth and go to prison as a traitor..." the first man said with a saddened look on his face.

"If you are to succeed then you would be treated as a Hero... Not a traitor. After all, he is the King only because he is the only one who can wield the Trident" the old man said and continued sipping his tea. The first man's face soured when he heard that.

"He had sullied our King's Trident with his dirty blood... Sometimes I wonder if Neptune is punishing us for some sin or not..." the first man said while looking at his soldiers. All of his soldiers nodded their heads in complete agreement.

"Sometimes I also wonder the same thing, my friend..." the old man said and threw away his tea in anger.

"But it can't be denied that we needed Vibranium B so that we can fight against those filthy surface dwellers... If this continues then our home would be soon filled with their trash" the old man said in a cold tone.

"...If we use the sensors then we would be able to get an approximate location... Though I find it really hard to believe that someone was able to take every ounce of that metal with them... I really can't imagine that a filthy surface dweller was responsible for this..." the first man said with a thoughtful look on his face.

"But none of us have taken the metal, so it must have been those savages" the old man said coldly while nodding his head.

"Let's go back... We can't do anything from here since the metal is already gone... Let's hope that the sensor is able to find the metal..." the first man said and ordered his men to gather everything since they didn't have anything more to do here... The old man simply sat down and poured himself another cup of tea...

[Midland Circle Financial, New York]

"So, Bakuto how did the mission go?" Murakami asked with a sneer on his face. He was annoyed once again because he had to be here for the meeting.

"The assassination attempt was a success but I still haven't received the confirmation" Bakuto said with a smile on his face. The rest of the members inside the room frowned after they heard Bakuto's statement.

"How do you know that the assassination attempt was successful but you don't know if she had died or not?" Murakami asked with a frown on his face.

"That's because I paid someone to plant a bomb in her car... I received the report that the bomb went off in the morning but everything has been silent since then..." Bakuto said and smiled proudly. He was pretty sure that he succeeded.

"Bakuto, there is no way that our organization is going to be connected to this incident, right?" Reid asked neutrally.

"We won't be having a problem with that... After all, Nemuri Kayama herself made our job easier with zero surveillance in her private parking lot..." Bakuto said and Reid nodded her head in understanding. Even though she looked worried, in truth she wasn't even worried because if something happened then she would happily throw Bakuto under the bus.

"If that's all, then I will be on my way. A new group of prostitutes is coming tonight..." Murakami said with an evil grin on his face and got up from his seat, once again disregarding Alexandra Reid's authority. But before he could even take a step... The room's door exploded throwing everyone towards the other side of the table.

"Honey~, I think that you used too much power" a man's voice was heard from the other side of the door.

"Ah... Yes. I was kind of excited you know" a woman said and giggled. A couple finally entered the room and looked around. The man waved his hand and conjured a marble slab where the door has been.

The people who were inside the room finally pulled themselves up from the floor and saw the newcomers. All of their faces paled and their bodies became weak when their eyes landed on the man. There was no one on the planet who didn't know who this man was...

"Leviathan..." Reid stuttered out in complete fear.

"Ah... So, you know me... I am really flattered but you see I am not the one you should be worried about right now... After all, it wasn't my car you blew up" the man they recognized as Leviathan or Itsuki Reo said with a sweet smile on his face.

When Reo's words finally registered inside their mind, their eyes landed on the woman who came along with Reo. "Kayama!!" Bakuto yelled in anger but Sowande grabbed him before he could act because Sowande knew they shouldn't fool around in front of someone like Leviathan.

After all, killing all four of them would be a child's play for Leviathan... Reid cursed her luck. She cursed her own stupidity... She should have seen it sooner... But Nemuri Kayama had never shown any sign that she was involved with someone like Leviathan.

Murakami simply wanted to dig a hole and hide inside it. He might be a thrill-seeker but he wasn't a death-seeker. He cursed his luck as soon as Leviathan appeared, there was very little chance that he would be able to leave this place alive but he would still try.

"How are you alive?" Bakuto asked coolly but he was still glaring daggers at Nemuri who was still grinning.

"Heh... Like something like a pesky bomb could kill me... but the same can't be said about your students though... Slaughtering them made me feel really good..." Nemuri purred and after hearing Nemuri's words, Bakuto wasn't able to hold back and lunged at Nemuri after freeing himself from Sowande's grip.

For Bakuto his students were the most precious thing to him and when Nemuri confessed about killing them, his mind was immediately filled with rage. "Crucio" Nemuri said in a bored tone while pointing her finger towards Bakuto. Bakuto dropped to the floor and started to scream out his lungs while he was thrashing around in pain.

The remaining three members of the Hand looked at Bakuto with horrified looks etched on their faces. One word... Nemuri Kayama needed one word to make a person like Bakuto scream like that... What kind of Power was this?? A part of their minds wanted them to find out about it but all of them knew that the situation wasn't favorable for them... They didn't even know if they would be able to get out with their lives or not.

Nemuri finally stopped the spell and Bakuto's screams stopped. He started to roll on the floor because of the residual pain. Nemuri calmly leaned beside Bakuto. "You see, you might have failed to kill me with the bomb... But you have hurt me with that more than you think... You blew up my car and ruined my tuxedo, both are crimes which are punishable by death..." Nemuri said sweetly and once again Crucioed Bakuto.

The other three didn't know what to say after they heard Nemuri's words. She was doing this because he blew up her car and destroyed her clothes?? Murakami finally decided to make his move.

"I was wondering if we could strike a deal..." Murakami started to say but before he could finish, Nemuri uttered the same words and he also dropped to the ground screaming out his lungs. Murakami was feeling unimaginable pain coursing through his body... he felt his whole body was on fire while getting torn to pieces at the same time...

When Nemuri Crucioed Murakami, Bakuto finally got some time to take a breather but he was still in too much pain to do anything. "There will be no deal and no escape... After all, I am just starting" Nemuri said with a vicious grin on her face and a butcher knife of ice formed in her hand.

[POV Reo]

Five hours have passed since Nemuri started to torture them. I simply stood beside where the door was and watched the whole scene from the corner of my eyes. After Nemuri stopped Crucioing Murakami, she bound all of them magically and hung them up upside down.

With a wave of her hand, all of them were now only in their underwear. I had to remind Nemuri to get their memories... So, Nemuri used Legilimency on Alexandra Reid... when Nemuri was finally done with her, Reid's brain was dripping on the floor from her ears. I asked Nemuri if I should turn back time and bring her back but she denied saying that she still had three more pigs to skin.

So Alexandra Reid got off easily. After that, Nemuri plucked out their eyes and started to skin them by order. She started with Sowande... This time she was very careful not wanting to kill any one of them by accident. Unfortunately, Sowande died after an hour due to blood loss.

Then Nemuri started to skin Murakami... this time Nemuri's technique was much more refined and she succeeded in skinning him completely while he was still alive but he also died after a minute.

After that, she finally arrived in front of Bakuto. She wanted to refine her technique before she started with Bakuto. Even though all of them made the decision of killing her together, she was enraged with Bakuto the most because he blew up her car and burned her tuxedo.

When Nemuri was finally done with Bakuto he was still alive but he was completely broken now... He was alive until Nemuri started removing organs from his body. "Satisfied now??" I asked Nemuri while I pulled her into my arms. She nodded her head meekly and cuddled in my arms.

"Yeah... That felt really nice..." Nemuri purred and snaked her arms around my neck.

"I would give her 6 out of 10... She was good but she could improve a lot more..." an unknown feminine voice rang throughout the room and I found myself along with Nemuri in an unknown place...
