Two days had passed since the full completion of the B.L.A.C.K. project's Asia sector.

After receiving his own final report from his and Jaekyung's people, he placed it in a file and handed it over to Yoon-gu, who reported to the Don, who had been unexpectedly silent.

Now the day has come.

Cloud XV's grand opening.

The first branch appeared in the heart of Itaewon, Seoul, South Korea, and if all was a success tonight, then more branches would be appearing along other hotspots within the cities of Korea.

Kim Dan's white Audi R8 pulled up to the front of the club that seemed to have a lot going on, for lack of a better description.

The instructions Heesung had given him, allegedly from Joo Jaekyung himself, were for Dan to go through the back entrance, where a valet would be parking their cars and giving them a special pass to cut the line, making entry easier.

So Kim Dan did just that. Giving away his car and receiving a dark blue band that he promptly placed on his wrist.

Taking a moment to readjust and fix up his outfit after sitting for quite some time, he felt relatively good about the evening. While in his closet, he'd debated on what would be appropriate attire for a night out like this.

But he eventually settled on getting dressed in a white two-piece set, consisting of a silver button-up tube top and shorts that reached and hugged his mid-thighs. Overlaid with a black and incredibly fitting collared attached sleeve with a bright red tie reaching his navel. Paired with knee-high black stockings and white slides.

As Dan finally entered the establishment, he felt his body go through what he could only describe as a shock, followed by a wave of uneasy nostalgia.

His senses immediately cranked up to eleven, as he was no longer underneath the natural darkness of the night sky and was in a manufactured space.

It was dark, but with various deep-shaded LED lights and an expensive and rather extensive sound system causing heavy trap music to cover every inch of the two-story club.

The layout was overtly simple; in the middle of the club was a giant dance floor, with people dancing recklessly and out of control as if the night hadn't just started. In the middle of the dance floor was a 30+ plush seater bar with an array of high-quality alcoholic drinks and appetite-satiating foods.

Along the north and west sides, there were stripper poles already in use, while just a little further down the hall were the pleaser rooms and eventually the bathrooms.

On the south and east sides were sections for groups to sit and mingle.

And that's where Izuku found himself. Up the spiral staircase on the south side as instructed by the bouncer, Kim Dan had finally made it to Jaekyung's section.

Guarded by incredibly buff and scary-looking men who had no plans on concealing the pistols they had holstered, they reviewed Kim Dan's name on a rather short list before letting him pass by.

The section was dark, with overhead lights illuminating the narrow path. A glass-paneled railing to the right, and to the left...?

Built-in black leather couches, forming a U-shape as a granite table with a fireplace burning blue within the center.
