Ban walk in the shadows of the street nearby his house. He already activated his Spirit Detection to the fullest aimlessly searching for someone suspicious within his range. He meticulously scan every nook and cranny of every house and streets that even a small creature like mice don't escape his perception. Ban observe the people in their house one by one while casually walking. He tour around 1 km radius from his house in a circle twice but he didn't notice anything so he decided to proceed where he saw his cousin got kidnapped last time to find some clue.

It did not take much time as he already notice something was up a few hundred meters away from him as he detect a corpse of a mutilated person lying on its own blood and scattered flesh. Ban already blended in the shadows and dash to look at the scene up close.

'These f*cking cannibals!' Ban curse in his mind in rage. He confirmed that the guy did this brutal scene was the same guy from back then on underground floor of an abandoned building outside the city.

Ban observe the area and no one was nearby except the corpse. He guess that the guy was already gone a few hours ago judging from the dried blood on the floor. He plan to call Oscar, father of Sienna or George, Brother of Eliza to explain the situation but resisted since the culprit is still around killing innocent. If the authority interfere in this matter, the culprit might lay low for a while in this area.

Ban look for a trail to follow but found nothing. There is only few places he needed to confirm. The abandoned building outside of this city or some nearby inns. He left the scene and he continue to search until he reach the abandoned building.

During his search, he notice a very familiar person. This person was at a bar full of people enjoying themselves while drinking and dancing. The person drink quitely together with his buddies also enjoying his life. Ban narrow his eyes dangerously but he resisted again. His top priority right now was to find the murderer as soon as possible.

He remember the area and immediately left the place. He is already out of the city and he decided to dash faster towards his target location.

Five minutes later, he arrive nearby at the building and scan the surroundings. Sure enough, he notice a person inside sleeping quietly. Ban blended in the shadows and slowly approach the building. He notice the guy was defenseless and didn't even put a trap whatsoever. The guy was still wearing his blood stained black cloak but the noticeable thing is that his cloak was so dirty. Ban's nerve pop out upon realizing that his cloak wasn't really dirt but dried blood that's never been washed in days or maybe the moment the guy wear this cloak. He realized this guy have massacred or even eat his victims quite a lot. Ban felt like burning this guy's soul in torment watching this little detail. He was now a few meters closer to the man and he was ready for the kill.

Suddenly, the man open his eyes and look at Ban's direction in the shadows. He calmly said hoarsely "Come out." He slowly get up from the floor. He has the height of 160cm in estimation but his posture was of a hunchback man. He probably taller if the straight his body. He look middle aged with a savage looking face with a crimson red eyes like a vampire in the dark looking at it's prey for a delicious dinner.

Ban was surprised and stop his movement. He didn't know how he was discovered by this man. He vigilantly scan the surroundings once again and it is still the same as he found nothing abnormal.

The man showed his bloodied fangs and sneered. He directly look at Ban's face in the shadows like he can see him in daylight. He said "I can sense your intent to kill the moment you got closer to me." He put his hand on his pocket and brought a circular item size of a coin with a button in the middle and pressed it as he continued to speak "Who are you? And how do you know this place?"
