Another Side Of The Universe

Chapter 35 : Other End of Bargain

Mr. K throws Carponio on Rosario's table. Carponio groaned in pain. Rosario coldly peek up at Noche. The rest of the customers looked at them curiously.

Rosario smirked. "Bravo! You actually bring him alive."

"Curious," said Noche as she sat down. "Looking at your capabilities, Carponio isn't that much of a threat. I have a feeling I'm working with a small fish."

Rosario laughs. "Don't worry. I'll keep up to my end of the bargain." He stands up. "Let's move to the VIP room," said Rosario as he gestured to Noche to go ahead.

Noche confidently walks ahead of him.

"What about Carponio?" Vidonne asks.

"Oh, you can have him," Rosario answered indifferently.

"No, NO NO NO. Please... I'm sorry. I-Im sorry. I won't trespass your territory again. I promise," Carponio begged.

But Rosario ignored him. Carponio kept on begging as Rosario walked away with Noche and Mr. K.

The VIP room is spacious with a karaoke set and few sofas. '

"So, what info do you want to get?" Rosario asked as soon as they sat down.

"Mademoiselle Mendoza's Cirque de Sombre," said Noche straightforward.

"Hm? I didn't know bounty hunters are hunting freaks these days," said Rosario as he took a sip.

Noche stayed silent.

"Cirque de Sombre always changes their show's schedule. They only open once or twice a week. Sometimes, they don't even perform for two whole weeks. Cirque de Sombre tickets are limited to 100 tickets per show, including 10 to 15 VIP tickets," Rosario explained.

"With the fame of Cirque de Sombre and very limited seats, not only the ticket price would be high but we're also competing on who gets the seat first," said Noche.

"Correct. But, with my influence, I can get you in if you'd like," Rosario offered.

"For how much?" Noche asked. "Surely you won't let us in so easily for free."

Rosario chuckled. "You're right. But I'll make an exception for tonight. I'll let you in for free. I want to be on your good side."

"Fair enough. I'll let you know if someone hires me to kill you," said Noche coldly. She put a holographic card on the table. "Send me details about Cirque de Sombre to that number."

"Hmm... I'll tell my informant to send you the files. Don't expect much tho. He's not nice with paper works," said Rosario.

"Just a simple essay about it is enough," Noche replied as she stood up. "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr Rosario."

Rosario stands up. "Sure. Anytime," he replied as he offered his hand.

Noche silent for a moment before she gives a firm handshake.

"That's slightly unexpected. I thought it would be harder to squeeze out information from Rosario," said Kaizo as they walked out of the bar.

"Perks of being class S bounty hunter. Everyone wants to be on my good side," said Axion indifferently.

"Hmph. What's so great about you anyway?"

Axion stopped. She went silent as she lowered her head. Kaizo looked at her in wonder. He can feel a moment of gloom around her.

"I kill shits. That's what I can do," Axion grimly answered before he walks away.
