I exit the VIP room and try to find some information on where to find Chenoa. As I pass by the market stands I notice a shady looking character leaning up against a wall. He is wearing a cloak, his arms crossed and his hat tipped down covering his face. This might be the right person I'm looking for. I walk towards him slowly and lean against the same wall close to him.
"I need information about someone." I whisper.
Without moving he responds back. "Depends on who it is."
"You know anything about someone named Chenoa."
"I might, or I might not."
"I just need to find her, name your price."
He puts his hand on the tip of his hat and pulls down on it making sure it can't go down any farther. "Chenoa is an important figure around here, it won't be cheap." He says in a low voice.
"The price is not an issue for me."
"Two hundred large and I'll tell you where you can find her."
Two hundred grand is a lot of money even for this. I can afford that price but is it worth it just to complete this one job? It might have to be, the longer I stay down here looking for her, the more likely I could be exposed.
"All right."
The next five minutes I use my phone to transfer the money into his account. The account you could say is like an in-between for real bank accounts. It is mostly used specifically for these kind of transactions. It simply takes money out of your bank account and puts it into this online one. Transferring money to someone else is as simple as putting in their username and the amount to transfer.
The price is steep but I can easily afford it. A purebred like myself will never die of old age, unlike the half breeds. Thanks to that, I have amassed a significant amount of wealth over the years. The Order has set up fake Identities for us as well as bank accounts so we can keep our money safe. We have to change our identities ever few decades to avoid detection and the process is complicated.
After he confirms that the transaction is complete he continues. "Chenoa is a woman in her thirties, black hair, and blue eyes. You can request to see her in VIP room seventeen, just talk to the guard outside her door."
A half breed in her thirties that has an SS rank? Although it's not unheard of, it is still rare to see. Well, this just keeps getting more interesting, no doubt if she were to live longer her abilities would grow stronger.
It's time to take care of her, but this is going to be difficult. I need to kill her quick before she has a chance to retaliate, if a fight broke out here we would both be exposed and our cover would be broken. Either that or I could lure her out of here somehow if the first option isn't viable. That might be the best scenario, she has guards around her room if I kill her there I wouldn't have much time to escape. This job is turning out to be more complicated than I thought.
There are no poisons that could feasibly kill a werewolf so that is out of the question. Wait I almost forgot about Jolon he could help me with this. His ability will make it perfect to get her into a one on one fight with no possibility of the humans noticing.
I get my phone out and call him. It rings a few times before he picks up. "What do you want?" He says.
"I need you to do me a quick favor. Come down to the black market on the east side of town."
"Understood, I'll be there in a few minutes." He hangs up.
I wait for Jolon by the entrance, it doesn't take long for him to arrive. He walks in wearing a plain white mask it's obvious that he is in his human form.
"What do you need me to do?" He asks.
Jolon's is a specialist, his ability is unlike any other that's why I decided to take him in as my apprentice. He has the ability to phase through any material essentially he can somewhat control his body at the molecular level. In addition to that his second ability allows him to teleport himself and objects that he has touched anywhere that he has previously been before.
"I need you to teleport my target and I to a location where we can fight."
"Why can't you do it yourself." He says. "Doesn't your second ability allow you to copy the abilities of others."
"I wouldn't use the word copy, at most it's just a cheap imitation. I can only teleport small objects right now and even that takes up a lot of energy."
I can copy abilities however it does not viable to in an actual fight. For instance, I can use Mahkah's earth ability against Chenoa since water is weak to earth. However, I probably wouldn't be able to beat her with it because it takes up too much energy and is impossible to master it. For example, if someone has two abilities and both of them have different element types, their main ability would far surpass their secondary ability. Wolves are usually born with a main ability, if not then it would eventually develop later on. A second ability is rare to see and only develops later in life.
If I can control Jolon's ability better the energy I need would decrease. There would be no need to carry items on me since I could just teleport them into my hand at will.
"So where is your target?" He asks.
"Room seventeen, her name is Chenoa. I will advise you to teleport me first so I can confront her before she has a chance to escape."
Jolon nods and places a hand on my shoulder. In an instant, I find myself in a desert? Holy shit, does he just travel the world so he can just teleport back to them at will? I need to practice his ability more so I can do the same thing. I can imagine how handy his ability is, once you visit a place once, you can go back there in an instant.
It only takes about ten seconds for him to appear in front of me with Chenoa. Immediately she is confused about where she is and how she got here. When she realizes that Jolon is still standing next to her, she swings at him with her claws but her attack goes right through him. She is puzzled at first but then attacks, again and again, each time the attacks just go through him.
Jolon is only average when it comes to fighting, but if you can't even manage to land an attack on him then you cant win. Of course, he knows that this is my fight, but I can see that he is having fun toying with her.
"Alright Jolon that's enough, she is my target."
"I know she is." He says as he teleports next to me. "I just like to see how long it takes someone to realize that they can't hit me. I'll leave you two alone then to fight."
He teleports away leaving just Chenoa and I. He picked a good place, at least here I can go all out without anyone else seeing me.
