Damnit, Baek always disappears whenever we go on hunts. The stench of blood is strong. There's an open door down this hallway. I can the evidence of a battle.
It really looks like a one sided manslaughter though. I walk in and I see Baek sitting a spike. It isn't a spike though it's a collection of spines that have pierced their bodies.
" Do you have to make it a decoration?" I say disgusted.
" That's what the bounty asked for. We get paid more for it." Baek says.
" Your arm. What happened to it?" I ask.
" One of the bounties caught me off guard." Baek says.
" Someone caught you off guard? Don't lie Baek. You went against someone stronger than expected and he sliced off your arm." I say.
" You are capable of sensing the difference in air pressure in a room. No one can catch you off guard. This is what death was talking about!" I yell.
" Let's just go. So Sakura can rebuild my arm." Baek says.
" She's going to charge extra this time. Since you broke this one so quick." I say.

" Please put out the fire! My daughter is stuck in that building." A lady says.
" We're trying miss. I don't know what type of fire this is. It won't go out even with mana embueded water." A fire fighter says. The flame suddenly all goes out.
"Mommy!!" A little girl says crying. While running to her mother.
" Oh my god! Thank you for saving her." The lady says.
" It wasn't us who saved her though." The fireman says confused.
" It was a man in a white mask." The little girl says.
" Are you really going to go around saving anyone and everyone in danger? Like some vigilante." Reznakov asks.
" Of course. The continents coming together and changes in weather and natural disasters. Is our fault. " I say.
" You wasn't the one who chose to fight Thor. That was Baek." Reznakov says.
" I could've stopped it. Plus I was the one who made a new sun not thinking about the changes. I was playing god when I'm far from one." I say.
" You're the closest human I've seen to a god since Hercules." Reznakov says.
" The flames have been getting stronger. Surtur is acting up. " I say.
" We can figure out a way to reason with him. However Rev you're building a family now. Does Kendra know about your vigilantism?" Reznakov asks.
" No one needs to know. I'm not saving people to get recognition. I'm just trying to put good energy into the world with all the pain I've caused." I say.
" How's my brother doing?" I ask.
" Him and Joker seem to have become bounty hunters. He hasn't done anything drastic though." Reznakov says.
" Okay that's good. Now let's go before someone sees us." I say.
***Baek
"Are you okay?" Joker asks as I wince in pain.
" I just have a headache. Thats all." I say.
" We will get your eyes and your arm back soon." Joker says.
" You've been becoming stagnant lately. Something is blocking you from increasing your strength." NoTe says.
" Yeah no shit." I say back.
" Hey we are gonna take one more bounty. Then we are going to hunt down Jack Frost." I say to Joker.
" Sure I'll go get a pa-"
" BAEK!" Sakura yells.
" I told you she was go be mad about the arm." Joker says
" I can handle her." I say.
" Do you know how long it took me to make that arm. An arm good enough to handle your weapons mana. Not even your own mana just your weapons." Sakura complains.
" Don't worry about my mana. Just worry about the weapons. Plus you've created an arm once you can do it again . " I say nonchalantly.
" I'm going to kill you. Slowly and painfully ." Sakura says.
" Won't be the first." I say.
" It'll be your last" She says.
" Okay how about everyone just chill. Sakura we will pay you even more money this time. " Joker says.
" Now please leave and work on the arm?" Joker asks nicely. Sakura leaves and I go back to sleep. However, I wake up from the sound of someone walking through our door.
Me and Joker are staying in a hideout. It's impossible to find normally. The only 2 people who know are whereabouts are Sakura and Zebec.
Sakura is a blacksmith capable of creating anything. Even Hephaestus sponsors her.
Zebec is the original old man who hired me to assassinate people. Back in the slums.
He had a paper in his hands. He never hand delivers bounties. This must be serious.
" I have a new bounty for you two." Zebec says as he hands us the papers. Joker and I look over them.
" Supposedly this person has been getting in the way of business for a while. I heard he's dangerous though so be careful." Zebec says.
" What's his abilities?" I ask.
" He is a berserker. So it'll be easier to just kill him off with one shot. That blurry picture we have is the only thing we have of his looks though." Zebec says.
" He's in the city of Berlin. I understand that's far so if you do accept I'll give you time to pack. I'll prepare a ship. " Zebec says.
" Unnecessary. It'll take a day with your ship but we could run there in a second." I say.
" We accept the bounty." Joker says. Zebec nods his head then leaves.
" Berserkers are annoying aren't they." Joker says.
" Yeah because they get stronger the more damage they take. Call Sakura let her know we'll be back tomorrow." I say.
"Are we leaving right now?" Joker asks.
" I'm leaving right now. You'll have to play catch up after you call Sakura." I say.
***Rev
" Hey Kendra how do you feel about going into the city today?" I ask.
" The city? Are you sure? You've always wanted to stay out of it because it's so close to the Borolin family headquarters." Kendra says.
" Yeah but I figured it's time for us to go out there and have some fun. We can't stay cooped up here all the time." I say.
" Okay then let's go into the city of Berlin." Kendra says.
