It's been 2 weeks since Lavi and Eve broke the Blood Moon Ritual. Nothing really significant happened other than Lavi preparing for his Wedding. With the help of his Comrades from 10 Harbingers, It's going along pretty well.
He already spread all 100 Invitation to the person they want to invite. Because there's a lot of Invitation left. Lavi and his Fiancees just give it away to the Knights and Nobles to Attend.
But while Lavi does that, Bronze Serpent. Lavi Private Squad. They've discovered something gruesome lately.
"This is the 4th Corpse this week. This make it a total of 13 Corpse..."
Veronika said. She and the other 6 Bronze Serpent are investigating a Serial Killer called 'The P Killer.'
"Miss. Once again. Our suspicion was confirmed. The corpse genital was cut of and it's stuck in his own mouth."
"Gruesome... Who could've done something like this."
Veronika asked. It's the first time that Shireno get Serial Killer roaming around. And since Lavi is busy with his own wedding. He send Bronze Serpent to act like normal and investigate the Serial Killer.
'The P Killer. A Killer who specifically target men. The way they killed them is by cutting their genital off and putting it inside the victim mouth. They let him bleed to death before burying the corpse on the snow.'
Veronika thought. The first time the Victim of this Killer was founded, They were frozen to death with their own genital in their mouth. With the Blood Frozen and their body frozen. It doesn't let out any bad smells.
But Citizens see the puddle of blood. At first they thought that someone just dumping some left overs. But when they try to clean it like a proper Shireno Citizen, They found the grueling corpse of a man.
The Target is always in their mid 30-s. And they're not Shireno Citizen. There's some speculation thrown around that, Adventurer Guild is the cause of this mayhem.
Immediately, After calling the guards and retrieving the corpse. They report it to Lavi first. Lavi immediately send Bronze Serpent to first, Search for more corpses. The more corpses they find, The easier to investigate the background of the killer.
So far, Veronika haven't found anything yet. She just keep giving the body to the Lab so that they can perform autopsy.
With some of Lavi power in her hand. She can go around asking for information. But Guild is becoming some sort of a b***h right now. They refuse to work together because they want to protect the identity of people that come in and go.
'Let's report that to his highness and see what he thinks.'
Veronika said. She go to the House and see that everyone is working really hard cleaning the snow, Planting Warming Magic stones so that the snow won't be a problem and also, They're busy with putting all the decoration in the House.
Fortunately for Veronika. Lavi is free for a moment. So he is able to spend a little bit time with her to get some information.
Veronika look at Lavi and kneeled. Lavi stood up and she stood up. Since it's quite warm now. Lavi and Veronika talk outside.
"So, What happened?"
Lavi asked calmly. Veronika immediately explain to him.
"Your Highness. Guild refuse to work together with us regarding this matter. They said that they want to keep all the information of the people safe and they won't give it to anyone else."
Veronika said. Lavi nodded. He know that he need to get into the scene by himself.
"Alright. I got it. Veronika. Call all the Bronze Serpent back here."
"Yes Your Highness!"
Veronika bowed and immediately run to call the others. Lavi sighed.
"f*****g Comet. I give you permission to make guild in Shireno you b***h. Because of you, There's f*****g Serial Killer running around. I swear if you don't cooperate with me regarding this matter, I will f*****g kill all the guilds and destroy it all."
Lavi was mad and raging. The Shireno he try to keep clean is now dirtied by the Guild. Before, Lavi was happy that the Guild is near. But now that they becoming a little ass, Lavi don't appreciate them anymore. After all. Shireno IS his country.
After a minute, Veronika and the others arrived back. They kneeled and stand back up again. They put their hands on their back and await for the next instruction.
"Alright. Here's what we're going to do. I have 30 Minutes of Break left. We're going to go to the Guild and speak with the Master there. If he still didn't want to give the Information. You guys are going to go to downstairs and kick everyone out. Including the Employees. I give you guys the privilege of using my Name to the Fullest."
Lavi said. Veronika and the others nodded. They follow behind Lavi and they run to the Guild to cut time. After all, Lavi only have half an hour to talk and go back.
If he late even a minute. His Fiancees will smack him. So he need to be fast. And they arrived after 3 minutes of Running. The Bronze Serpent was tired from keeping up with Lavi speed. They immediately calm themselves down and go inside the guild behind Lavi.
Just in Lavi presence, Everyone kneeled. No matter what they were doing. How could they not? Lavi look really mad. His pressure is telling him he's not joking around. Lavi go to the Receptionist.
"I want the record of all the people that going in and out of this Gate. No Question ask."
Lavi said immediately. The Receptionist immediately shuddered and get scared. The great Ace is mad at them. One unspoken rule in the guild are. Not to Make 'Ace' Mad. So everyone is bound to do whatever he wants. After all. Guild would not be around if it's not for Ace, Angel and the others.
"S-Sir... I will call the Guild Master here.."
The Receptionist run away abandoning what Lavi wanted. Veronika and the other was looking like 'Ooh... That girl is brave... Abandoning Your Highness like that...'
Lavi was already not cool with the treatment he get. He get his sword out. Everyone get scared. 2 Member of Bronze Serpent immediately open the door and look at everyone like 'If you want to leave, Leave now and don't make any ruckus.'
So they did. They slowly walk away. Finally, Comet come into the Receptionist Table with the Receptionist.
"Your Highness. What can I help you."
"Woman. You not tell him what I wanted?"
Lavi look at the Receptionist. Comet immediately said.
"Your Highness. She's still new here. Please don't pressure her so much."
Comet said with a chuckle afterward. Lavi cut the table in half.
"You think this is funny? Give me the Report of people that going in and out of the Teleportation Gate."
Comet turn serious.
"We're Sorry Your Highness. We can't sell information even to the greatest hero like you. We Guild have our own Policies."
Lavi immediately wear his mask. His pressure multiplies. The workers fall down to their knees and lose control over their bodies.
Anymore rejection, Lavi will destroy everything the guild ever done.
"Guild. You guys send a Serial Killer to Shireno. The country I dear the most and you're trying to stop me?"
Comet immediately pray and spray.
"Your Highness. We're very sorry. But we couldn't sell public information. After all, We're public sir. Not Private. We couldn't prefer one adventure to the other adventure."
And that work on Lavi. But at what cost?
"Just know this Guild. You just going to lose my affiliation. Don't you dare use 10 Harbingers Name ever Again. If you try to contact my Comrades. I will come for you."
Lavi said. Now. Comet have two option. Letting go the 10 Harbingers. The strongest Adventurers in the Planet. For all the scums that they tried to protect that they know couldn't recreate what 10 Harbingers do.
Or giving Lavi what he want. Keeping the 10 Harbingers under the Guild Name. Because, Guild is not the only organization that take request from public and giving them quest and such.
There's something called Nox. It's essentially Guild. But not as big as Guild. And if Comet, The Grand Master of Guild pick the second Choice. They will lose to Nox.
Lavi once again. Try to ask them. This time, There's something on the line. His Guild Card. Along with his Fiancees. Not only that. There's everyone Guild Card in there. Pixel, Luke, Erina, Leon, Eve, Kiara and Brendon.
"Once again. I will ask you nicely. Can you give me the report?"
