~Axion Agrishe~
I was surveying the capital for any danger, along with my knights tailing me in the shadows, when I noticed a lively bar... or was it a tavern? Suddenly,I felt a powerful and dangerous unique energy and was strangely drawn to it as I strode ,and could not help telling the knights to keep a lookout from away.

The small door nearly did not fit him, but he still squeezed through, eyeing and analyzing everyone inside immediately. Then he felt the strange presence very close to him and saw a slender figure
approaching him.
They dared to steal from him? He thought.
Hmmm, this is going to be interesting. He thought it was a young boy at first but when he grabbed their arm he realised it was actually a woman. Her touch felt cool and refreshing, easing his fatigue. What sort of sorcery was this?
He was about to signal to his guards when she made a comment about manners and he nearly burst into laughter right there, but he realised he did not control his strength and bruised the girl.
Instead of shying away from his stare like everyone did, she actually ACTED like he was some sort of pervert and made such a commotion he was impressed.
However, what caused him to release his grip was not the impressive acting nor the sarcastic remarks about manners, but the girl's astounding aura and face he witnessed when she uncovered her cape. Her hair was like the warmth of the sun, but somehow still the elegance of the moonlight. He could not stop looking away. What's more is that her eyes were also deep red, the first person he ever saw had red eyes too. Red eyes were the symbol of demonic energy and fear, so everyone's naturally afraid of him. They were right of course, he was a descendant of the strongest demon. While he recovered from the situation she closed in on him and he could hear her breath on his neck when she whispered "good luck".
A lowly drunkard tried to struck his face.
He failed of course, but the silhouette of the lady walking away from the bar so peacefully was something that would definitely be ingrained into his memory.
That Girl saw the first punch, but then did not witness the way he struck his opponent down in one single jab and called to his right hand side.
He signaled to one of his shadows,"Collect as much information as you can on the lady who just walked out of the tavern"
"Yes sir, on it."
Whoever that girl was, she was now not only hunted by the deadliest and most secretive organization in the whole world, but she also caught the attention of its ruthless leader.
