chapter 2.

"What the fuck?! I'm not going to do that." I say to my dad, confused and annoyed from what he just said to me.

"Sweetheart, I know it's not something you're used to but, in this particular case, it's necessary that you collaborate and accept this" my father says trying to persuade me.

"I'm a loner, dad, I don't want no idiots around me while I'm doing my thing" I growl to my dad, anger growing in my stomach.

'Are they perhaps underestimating me?' I think in my head feeling more annoyed minute after minute.

They better not.

"Sweetheart they know well your strength..." my father's voice takes me out of my thoughts,

'Did he read my mind?'

"...this time the target is a well known politician, he is packed with money and of course a lot of people hate him and want him dead..." my dad explains stoically,

"...so he has a lot of people to protect him, you will most likely have to kill a lot of men this time."

"Nothing new to me, dad" I cockily answer to my dad with a smirk on my face.

"Yes sweetheart, I know you're a cold blooded murderer" he praises me with a loving smile on his face, "but all those people that you will face are professional killers, just like you" he stops and stares me right into my eyes,

"I don't want nothing bad to happen to you sweety" I see real concern in his eyes as he pronounces his last sentence.

My dad has never been concerned for me during my works.

Not because he doesn't care for me, not at all.

He simply knows that I'm pretty close to be unbeatable.

'Sooo... maybe it will be fun' a small smile forms on my lips as I try to imagine how could those men test my slayer abilities.

"Okay, deal." I accept my father's request breaking the silence in the room after my dad's admission of concern.

"Then, who's going to be my partner in this?", I curiously ask whilst straightening my back on the chair.

"Your partner is going to be a notorious killer, we are almost the same age, he has more than twenty years of experience on his shoulders and is one of the coldest blooded man that ever stepped on this planet, his name is...

...Fushiguro Toji."
