Sam ” Levi ….

I know you might have already gone to sleep…. but I need your help… you will be satisfied with the compensation…”

Levi “ I am not asleep, I am watching the world cup of Eruguae. I have placed a bet, but I seem to be losing …so tell me what’s up. You have helped me greatly before and I thought we were friends, when did compensation come in between . … just say what you want my help with…”

Sam ” then let’s meet at the, dolphin’s… I will be there within 5 minutes. Can you be a little fast…”

Levi ” no problem … the pub is near to where I am staying, so I will also be there in 5 minutes..”

Levi was a new friend that Sam made. 

Levi was in a precarious situation when Sam first met him and Sam had helped him out of the pickle.

Levi was also a level 6 hunter, he took on a mission to hunt down a single horned boa. 

Usually these kinds of wild beasts lived alone in their specific territory, unless it was their mating season or some special circumstances.

Levi was confident in taking down the single boa, but the circumstances changed when a second male boa arrived and he was in a bad situation. Even though he could have still escaped, it was almost impossible to get out without getting hurt badly . 

That was when Sam who was passing by lent him a helping hand.

Levi was a hunter but he was also an honorable man. 

Ever since then Levi had helped Sam in many matters… including getting Sam his hunter’s license.

….

Sam arrived faster than he said and was waiting for Levi. 

When Levi saw this, he knew something urgent was up and sat down opposite to Sam quickly.

Levi ” what is the matter Sam…”

Sam ” It’s a little complicated, I don’t want to implicate you….so I have come up with a story. I found the love of my life in the morning while walking towards the hunter association. I got attracted to her the instant I laid my eyes on her, But due to some circumstances I couldn’t meet up with her at that time…

When I returned I couldn’t find her no matter where I looked and the only clue left was the original location that I met her for the first time … It was very near to the hunter association and you know every surveillance in that area is under the complete control of the hunter association.

And you my friend happens to have a certain relationship with one of the surveillance staff. I can pay her handsomely if she could get me the footage at that time … so what say you..”

Levi ” wow you are really good at making shit up…. I won’t question you, since you don’t want to say what is really going on… You want the footage, I can get it for you without any cost…”

Sam ” Levi we need to do it this way, It is better this way…”

Levi ” as you wish… and you have come to the right place, I know exactly how greedy Kumi is…. she wouldn’t mind spending the night with you, if you give her enough compensation. Want to try it….she is really…”

Sam interjected ” Levi, the matter is urgent…we can talk about this later..”

Levi ” Is the matter that important, do you need any other help… you know I am also a strong warrior…”

Sam ” yeah yeah …I have seen how a single horned boa was whooping your ass…”

Levi ” hey…that was…..”

…

Levi made a call to Kumi, luckily she was on duty for the night. 

Sam and Levi met with her outside one of the side entrances of Hunter association building.

Levi went forward and talked with Kumi alone after hearing what Levi said Kumi started looking at Sam like he was some idiot. But she was happy to comply after receiving a small pouch from Levi..

After receiving the pouch her look towards Sam changed entirely. Now it was a passionate look and she even gave a wink towards Sam. But Sam was in no mood for this and he just gave a simple nod back.

Kumi went back to the building and came back after 5 minutes and gave something to Levi. 

She didn’t forget to give that passionate stare to Sam again before returning.

Sam was really surprised that everything went so smoothly and so fast. 

He had imagined many scenarios after listening to the conversation between the village head and the Enforcers.

Seeing Sam’s surprised look Levi spoke ” What were you expecting … You really have no understanding of how the Hunter association works…”

After chatting some more with Levi, he bid farewell and went to the Enforcer’s office.

He was supposed to meet up with the rest there.

When Sam arrived at the office, the village head and the Enforcer team were already waiting.

  Sam handed over a small storage device like a pen drive to Melody. 

She attached it to an equipment and a 3D video started playing.

It was the video of Sam walking towards the hunter association, he paused for a second in the video while walking. 

Sam asked the video to be paused at that very instant, he knew the moment that he paused was the exact moment when he felt that malicious aura and blood lust.

Sam couldn’t figure out who was the one emitting such an aura through a video, But they could identify the faces of all the people besides Sam at that time. 

The surveillance had captured the moment from a different angle so they could easily recognize every person besides Sam.

They then cross checked the identity of each person with their database.

  The Enforcers database consisted of all the surveillance from the streets and other parts of the village.

The Enforcers soon came to a conclusion that of the 18 people that were identified from the footage, 16 were still inside the village and two had left the village.

Amongst the two people that left the village One was a red haired lady with an icy look and the other was a merchant who came to the village often.

The chances of the lady being the culprit were higher and she had left the village about an hour after Sam had moved away from the alley.

As they were trying to identify the route that the culprit took, there was a sudden ruckus from the outside.
