"You want me to overseer the fight between the three deities?" [M/N] sips the glass full of fruit juice while Ken, his superior, was sniffing the rum in his glass. [M/N] was doing his usual clean-up job when Ken suddenly asked to meet with him. And they both meet up in the bar that most of the nine-tailed members were seen spending their free time.

The organization has a lot of legal business that they were running. They have one or two legal businesses in their name to mislead the police and not to attract the authorities' attention. This is one of them, and the higher members of the organization were very well known in this bar so they don't have any worries about talking about official business in their place. Because no one would have the courage to rat them out. If you do, then they would consider you as a traitor, and [M/N] would be asked to eliminate them.

It's a shitty work but [M/N] doesn't have a choice but to be obedient. Especially now that the superiors are starting to get wary of him, no matter what kind of outrageous and unreasonable work was assigned to him, he doesn't have a choice but to obey while gritting his teeth and clenching his fist so hard his knuckles started to become white.

He was waiting for the perfect opportunity to ruin the plan that the organization that painstakingly put their effort. He may end up in a bad situation but he was already prepared for any outcomes that may result from his actions.

To be honest, he doesn't care anymore whether he dies or lives after this, as long as he accomplished his goal then that's all there is to it. But lately, he was getting more and more confused as to what his goal is.

He was starting to lost sight of his objective and getting uncertain if what his doing is the right thing anymore. The road that he confidently takes that time is starting to become a ragged road that was full of obstacles and now he was considering if he should take another one that will surely lead him to a clearer path that will take him to his desired destination without hardship.

But how can he possibly take another road now that he was slowly getting there? A moment of hesitation can lead to a more unbearable outcome. That's why instead of retreating, he persistently takes a step forward even though he was getting more and more umcertain.

"Yeah, our plan relies on this war so obviously we have to see through the process of it. Why? You don't want to?" Ken raised his eyebrow as he scrutinized [M/N]. Although the organization said to be cautious of [M/N] he doubted that the other would really make a move at them. But he didn't dare lower his guard.

"Sure, I'll take it. Should I do it my way or do you guys have any orders?" [M/N] nonchalantly said looking as if he doesn't have any interest in this event.

He really tried his best not to show his delighted expression when he heard Ken asking him to oversee the fight. To be honest, he was pondering about what kind of action he should take to make the last step of his plan work, he was even considering betraying the organization upfront but fortunately, he didn't have to do so.

"Nah, the boss said to do whatever you like. He's worried that you will get grumpy when he tried to restrict your movements so he just said to leave it to you." Ken said as he lights his cigarette and started smoking beside [M/N]. He even offered the other a cigarette but [M/N] refused it and takes a lollipop from his pocket.
