The shopping district was maddeningly clamorous. The clock hadn’t even so much as struck an hour past the time she had left the castle, yet her ears were presently ringing from the onslaught of the surrounding reverberations. The overwhelming scent of a multitude of humans swarming within a single place had begun making her skull throb.

This was the exact reason why Mystic was the designated errand-runner. Ah, she was not in a great mood. If he had just not made a mess of himself in the previous job, he wouldn’t have had to receive a punishment to satisfy the client…

The woman hurried through the shop’s automatic doors, picking up a basket to place her purchases, disregarding the employee’s welcome en masse. At long last, the overwhelming stench wafted off and she could breath in peace for an instant. As she paced through the aisles of the deserted store—so late at night, whichever sane human being would make a grocery run?—she ran through the list of requirements in her head.

Unexpectedly, as she turned onto the following section of the store, someone subtly knocked into her. A smell that she considered less than pleasant rushed under her nose and couldn’t help the grimace on her face. Though unpleasant, she looked the man over and frowned with recognition. Mystic had returned home drenched in this very scent multiple times in the now, for which he’d been repeatedly scolded and rushed out to clean off. The mere thought further made her visibly irked.

In the wake of a moment of silence, she spoke at last, “Mind your step…”

“Careful, now. You ought to watch where you’re going next time.”

Despite such a generic warning, the Vampire immediately discerned a familiar scent emanating from this woman. One resembling a First Blood, much like that of a certain Founder he enjoyed toying with as of late. Though perhaps Mystic eventually evolved from a mere ‘toy’ to that of someone worth pursuing further relations with, but regardless, the unknown interlocutor urged Ruki to remain on his guard behind that visage of apathy he mastered on many occasions.

“At this hour, I didn’t expect very many other patrons around here, truth told. How curious.”

A million explanations as to who this woman might be ran through his mind like an Olympic marathon. The likelihood that Mystic would fool around with her when he already knew the pleasure of his fangs was low, or so Ruki liked to think. Due to his past, he still often had his doubts, however, a more convincing possibility crossed him.

The so-called ‘boss lady.’

So many questions, so little time as this tiny convenience store could provide. Ruki surmised he needed to interrogate her in a more secluded space, or at least one way from the public’s eye. Why should Mystic work tirelessly for her and risk getting himself injured? What kind of encumberment forced him to step into danger of his own volition? For now, he maintained his cool and composed demeanor.

“Come to think of it, you look oddly familiar. Have we met before? You surely take after an… ‘acquaintance’ of mine.”

Indeed, the woman reminded him of Carla Tsukinami, a Founder with whom he preferred not to involve himself.

“…This store closes soon. I suggest we pay for our things, and then continue this conversation elsewhere. After all, this is no place for a Founder such as yourself to dawdle.”
