Chương 11: •Mornings

"Hey guys , get up. I know Carbon is open 24/7 but that doesn't mean that we can sleep here."

Krev who was the only one sober out of three watched Seven and Gray with their heads down on the table. Wearing a black jacket he picked up his phone which was placed on the table and got ready to leave.

"Bishop Krev could you please move them from here?"

Krev looked at their state and said ,

"Just call someone from Sector-30 camp and tell them to send a car for Archbishop Seven , also tell them that it's my order."

"Okay Bishop Krev , and about Priest Gray..."

"Just kick him out of here , if possible near the trash cans would be good."

The waitress controlled her laugh and said ,

"Sure , Bishop Krev. Have a good night."

Krev nodded and then just as he took the first step towards the exit a hand pulled his jacket , the strength was enough to make him stop.

"Hey , don't be so rude to Gray."

It was Seven , she was somehow still in her senses.

"Ugh , just wait a sec."

Saying that she straightened up and joined her hands , the waitress who was witnessing all this decided to interrupt.

"Archbishop Seven , you can't use your gifts here. Please use your gifts once you're out of Carbon."

"Huh? Just wait a second."

"But-"

The waitress tried but gave up knowing how powerful Seven was , after waiting for few seconds Seven got up ans said ,

"Okay let's go , I feel good now."

Krev heard that Seven was a light drinker and he witnessed her alcohol tolerance , it only took her one bottle of champagne to get completely drunk.

'She must've used her gift to make her sober.'

Not many knew of Seven's gift , only the higher ups had an idea of her gift.

"Don't leave Gray here and that's a order Bishop Krev."

"As you wish Archbishop Seven."

'Ruler of the Self... mysterious as ever. Only few people know about her gift , I wonder what it is. Maybe physical type because of how she sobered herself really quick.'

Looking at Krev who was currently staring at her Seven said ,

"Hmm , do you also want to know about my gift?"

"..."

Taking few steps towards him she whispered in his ears ,

"I might just tell you if you let me borrow you for a night..."

"..."

Hearing no reply from Krev she continued ,

"I'll take that as a yes... then you'll get the details of the new mission by the morning."

Saying that she walked away from Krev sight. Keeping his stoic face Krev thought ,

'Scary'

"So , I've got a new mission for tomorrow night. Guess I'll try to sleep till afternoon today."

'I hope it's not a monitoring mission , it's a pain watching some old man for 12 hours.'

Giving Gray his shoulder Krev got out of the bar , dropped Gray by the base and went to the apartment assigned to him. It was a pretty big apartment for a single guy to live , the main hall had a TV which was turned off most of the times.

The brown walls went well with the yellow lights , a unnecessarily big bedroom and small balcony was present in this apartment. Turning off some of the light Krev darkened the room a bit , he threw the jacket on the table before him and relaxed on the sofa.

Taking the pin off his chest he placed it in a black box , slowly his hands reached for the buttons of his shirt. One by one he unbuttoned his shirt until he was half naked sitting on the sofa. His muscles were quite developed because of the hard-core training he went through during the last month.

'Ugh. I don't want to go through that hell once more.'

Taking his phone and his earphones out Krev touched few options and wore his earphones. Some loud relaxing sounds played in his ears the next moment as he closed his eyes.

×-×-×

It always hurt me , it felt like a sharp tip pricking in my heart. The quiet dinner we had... the unfunny jokes my sister made... the tasty food my mother made... in the end it all hurt me. Maybe it was all just an illusion that I created... an illusion called family.

And when I chose to break the illusion everything broke...

×-×-×

With a loud ring in his ears Krev woke up , his earphones were still in his ears. He was still in the clothes he was wearing yesterday , even with the window open and him being half naked Krev didn't feel any cold.

His developing six packs looked amazing or tasty as what some females would say , rubbing his eyes he got up from the sofa. It was already 14:00 when he got up which meant that he still had few hours before his mission.

Wearing a light hoodie he brushed his teeth and started working out , that's it that was his morning routine. His humongous bedroom was empty as Krev didn't like to feel up his room. Seeing that Seven recommended to buy some equipments so that he could work out at home.

He worked out for few hours to tire his body out , with the last pull up he jumped down on the mat. Eating the salad he made yesterday he again sat on the sofa looking at the blue sky present beyond the balcony.

He just sat there idly looking at the sky , during this time he would think about new ways of using his gift. And in between he would think of his family.

'Hmm , I wonder if I can use my blood to control others. Running my blood through their veins huh... if I can fasten the cell division I might be able to take over the body and...'

Nobody in this world had such power , the power to control blood was one of it's kind which is why it's limitations were not known. Because of this Krev would take some time and think about different ways to utilise this power.

He didn't say much , he always listened and followed the orders other gave. That's all he could do , he lived no life other than the sinner's.

Many sinners created fake identity to roam around living a fake life , as a front to their real self that is a killing mutant they continued living in the society. Even Seven lived a fake life her profession was teacher , she taught in the local school in Sector-30.

But Krev didn't choose to create any identities and lived with the sins he committed , of course he would use names while being on a mission. But that was a just a temporary thing.

Time went by as Krev looked at sky , read news in his phone and worked out a bit. The clear blue sky wasn't visible anymore as the sun was descending. Stretching out a bit he jumped out of his sofa and ate an apple before heading to the base.

"Tastes sweeter than I expected."

While he was eating the apple his phone placed on the table infront of the sofa rang , picking it up he saw the text sent by Seven.

<Wear something good , the target will be attending a high-class party so you'll need to dress like your rich and hot. If you wear those black pants and black shirt combination again I'm sending you back.

I'll provide more info once you arrive at the base>

Following Seven's order Krev picked out a white shirt with dark blue blazer pairing up with the blazer were his dark blue pants. Sliding numerous small pins in his fingers he got ready for the party , after few days of testing on him Seven found out that Krev was immune to most of the poisons.

Hence she tried to this ability of him to upgrade his assassination skills to another level. The pins he inserted in himself contained a certain poison , each of his finger contained indifferent poisons paralyzing , killing and many more.

After getting ready he called his base and booked himself a taxi , as a assassin his identity was his everything. Hence Krev was informed to lay as low as possible. On his way to the base in the taxi Krev kept staring at the window while thinking ,

'Maybe we could've a good family in future...'

After checking on his squad he went to the office assigned to Seven , sitting infront of Seven Krev waited for the instructions regarding today's mission.

"Just wait a minute I need to submit this report real quick."

Krev nodded. After few minutes with a loud click on the keyboard Seven let out a huge sigh.

"Hah , finally done. Let's talk about your mission now , it's going to be your first time doing such mission but get used to it."

"?"

"The target is the daughter of one of the shareholders of Mutant Corp. , those b*stards have been raiding our bases. So we've have decided to give them a warning , knowing how you work you'll need Gray to kill the target. So Gray will be accompanying you , all you have to do is to seduce the target..."
