Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 – Take out the Drugs

Suddenly waking up to an unusual sound, Tristan jumped out of his bed only to see his former wall facing giant tortoise.

"What!? What the hell is going on? I don't remember anything besides a wall there!"

All of a sudden, someone burst through his apartment door.

"L-Landlord?!"

"Ah, what a wonderful sight! Don't you think?"

"What do you mean, all of a sudden?!"

"I won the district lottery. Thanks to the city being shuffled, my property has become a wonderful sightseeing spot"

The landlord showed up the contract of his apartment.

"From today onwards, this will be a hotel, all the unsightly cesspool of half slums apartment shall be ranked up X3."

"Wait! Hold on!"

"Oh no, no, there shall be no objections, you read the terms of the contract, I shall give you 40 seconds to evict! Otherwise"

Someone suddenly entered his room with a monster specialized as a cleaning equipment.

"ALL RIGHT!!! I GET IT!! I'LL GET OUT THIS INSTANT!!"

On the peaceful office of DESTINY, Charles was quietly typing on his keyboard as he stare on the screen of his computer.

Meanwhile, Justin sipping a cup of coffee stared upon the individual sloppily sleeping on the Sofa

"Ms. Anna, what's up with that?"

The young maid Anna went and drape a sheet on Tristan as he tries to sleep.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Tristan has lost his residence. I believe he said something about not expecting it and was given about 40 seconds"

"Being homeless in this city is a suicide. Charles, shouldn't we just increase his salary? It's tough for him to send money for his sister. He's also doubly vulnerable seeing that he's now a fighter and possessor of the Eyes of Heimdall"

"I did say that, but he said he doesn't want any special treatment" Charles replied while keeping his eye on the screen.

"...Hmm... We should increase his salary" Justin insisted

At that moment, Ralph slammed the door open with a bloody face, he brazenly strolled in and sat on Tristan's face like it was nothing.

"Hey, Hey, that's a lot of blood" Justin said

"It's not mine" Ralph grabbed a cloth and started wiping his face "I got caught up by some meth head in the middle of session. They came at me in a vigorous berserk state, I sliced off his carotid artery but... They didn't even die from that"

"Were they human?"

"From the way they respond and feel of their cross section. Yeah"

"In Helheim City, and the outside business, about 2 thousand strong and weak narcotic drugs are flooding the market"

"Those drugs, was there something that causes people from not dying after being sliced apart?"

"...Hmm... About that, as absurd as it is, a drug like that doesn't exist..." Justin picked up a document and threw it to the table, Ralph quickly picked up the document and read through it. "Until now"

"Devil's tail... A potent magic potion alternative narcotic. Rather than a drug, it's something that temporarily reconstructs the body"

He read through the rest after setting down the papers "Sounds bad... And it reeks of money"

"Don't, in reality, the trade's worth hundreds of thousands of zeros"

"In any case, I got an info about that" Mio suddenly appeared on the table while stepping on Ralph's hand.

"Alright, Charles, are we okay to take this game down?" Justin turned to Charles

"Mhmm? Yeah, we need to purge that drug, or more victims will turn to that repulsive drug"

Justin calmly put down his coffee "You heard the boss, Ralph, get your ass off Tristan's face"

"Hmm? AHHHH!!" Ralph then noticed and jumped off his feet, he grabbed Tristan's shoulders "This dude! He's not breathing!! Tristan! TRISTAN!!!"

"I don't believe it!!"

After calling in sick for the day, add to the fact that he got evicted out of his apartment, Tristan got a day off from school and now, he started complaining

"What kind of decent person would sit on another person's face and forgets about it!! I almost died, you shit!!"

"Jeez, my bad, alright!"

Tristan kept on complaining on the back seat of the Moped as Ralph drove through the streets, on their way to the informant of the Devil's Tail.

"Anyway, I heard you got evicted out of your apartment? Poor brat"

"Hah?! I don't want to hear that from you! You always leech off from the girls you slept with"

"Shut your mouth! They asked me for it! You know, if you beg for it, I can help you get settle down on one of the girls"

"I'd rather die, Miss Clarissa said she's going to help me find a new apartment, so no thank you"

"Ha! This is the problem with virgins!"

After awhile, They managed to find leads on the trading route of the Devil's Tail.

After gathering up the leads, a full scale operation of DESTINY to take out the drug ring behind Devil's Tail started.

Tristan was fully equipped with his modified ACP9 submachine guns, it was a specialized gun to make full use of his blood arts.

Ralph on the other hand carries out a small knife to pierce his skin.

The objective of both of them was to take out the negotiation of the thugs inside the Pier 3, while the rest of the teams are out to take down the factories and arrest the ones responsible for the drug.

Tristan put on his goggles and activated the night vision of his eyes.

"How many are there?" Ralph asked

"10... No, it's 20"

"Alright, we can take them out" Ralph pierced his skin and reshaped the dripping blood into a sword, "Guard my back, brat"

"Stop calling me brat!"

"Let's go!" Ralph went in and kicked down the door to the storage room.

"What was that!"

Tristan stepped in, guns blazing, he precisely shot through the legs of the thugs, while providing cover fire for Ralph who was attacking the rest of the gangsters.

The long night passed, and they had managed to take down every last factory that produce the drug known as Devil's Tail.

Tristan sat on the sofa leisurely sipping a green tea alongside Ralph, both were beat up from the operation after cleaning up 700 people.

"It's peaceful..." Tristan muttered

"It really is..." Ralph agreed
