85 Aggressors
[Later]
After they prepared themselves, they left the house and entered Xiao Mei's car, Jibril said that she wanted to visit the town a bit for herself, and Xiao Qiangwei accepted her request on the condition that she would hide her capabilities.
This time they would not just abandon the place, Xiao Qiangwei would turn back here sometimes so if he could keep his identity a secret, then it's good, if he can do things without anyone knowing it was him, then he would not hesitate.
Xiao Mei turned on the car and lightly pushed the pedal, and the car finally moved. Xiao Qiangwei didn't used his spatial manipulation for fear that his mother's stomach would not be able to resist the thing, and travelling slowly could be enjoyable.
Xiao Qiangwei: So.. Where is it?
Xiao Mei: It is some dozen of kilometers away, it's a tall building covered in bulletproof window and it is heavily guarded from Speciali-
Xiao Qiangwei: Oh, found it..
Xiao Mei: ..
Xiao Qiangwei: ..
Xiao Mei: I'm not even asking about it after I heard that you almost reached the moon with your senses..
She sighed and continued to drive to the HQ of the Aggressors, Xiao Qiangwei looked around and enjoyed the scenery in front of the window.
Some time later, they finally reached the building, XIao Mei parked her car nearby and she and her son got out from the car, Xiao Mei used her key to close the car and then headed with her son to the building.
When they reached the entrance, two weak Specialists that were guarding the place stood in front of the entrance and blocked their way.
Specialist 1: Sorry ma'am, intruders can't enter.
Xiao Mei: Don't worry, he already knows everything.
Specialist 2: Huh? Then you came here for the brainwashing?
Xiao Mei: I have some things to talk with the boss that are connected with him.
Both the specialists nodded and let the family pass, when the two of them entered the building, one of the specialists turned to the other.
Specialist 1: Hey.. Ever wondered about how did everything happened? We were just selling sex toys..
Specialist 2: ...Sometimes I ask myself that..
Inside the building, every worker was greeting Xiao Mei or looking curiously at Xiao Qiangwei, since the only thing really similar between the two of them were their eyes, no one would think that they are mother and son, especially after the ruckus Xiao Mei caused when she lost her son.
Xiao Qiangwei followed his mother to the elevator, which was already used from someone who was coming down.
Soon, the doors opened and revealed a black haired man with brown eyes, he was pretty tall, around 6'1 inches, he looked really healthy and he let out a smile when he saw Xiao Mei.
?: Hey there, Lightning Blade, I heard there was a Devourer on your house, how did it go?
Xiao Mei: Just a false alarm..
However, Xiao Mei didn't looked that good when she saw the man, and Xiao Qiangwei noticed it but didn't say anything, thinking that there was some enmity between the two of them.
?: C'mon sweetie, don't be so cold to me, why don't you let a smile for the person that loves you? Otherwise I could change your name to Ice Queen.
His hand laid on Xiao Mei's shoulder, but she slapped it away.
Xiao Mei: Don't touch me. Wei, let's go.
?: Huh?
The man looked behind and saw Xiao Qiangwei who shrugged, and followed Xiao Mei to the elevator. When the elevator closed, the man had a dumbfounded face while some workers behind him laughed at his attempt.
Worker 1: It seems that he failed even this time..
Worker 2: Heh, we should really call her Ice Queen, 17 years without a husband and stood alone with her son, who disappeared too, if I could, I would have warmed up her bed.
Worker 3: Hahaha! You would be sliced before even getting near her. The only question that there is is if she will slice your head or your dick.
Worker 4: Hah! Good one! Still, I wonder who is that guy beside her, is he her new lover? I didn't knew that Lightning Blade was someone who liked young men, even though he is really young..
Then they saw the man arching his body forward, with despair.
Worker 1: Don't worry man, you still have a chance if the guy isn't her lover.
But they were unable to see the terrifying face of the man, who was feigning to be despaired, what could greed do, only ourselves know..
?: 'If he dares to try something to Mei, I'll pierce him with my fire spear..'
This man was Luigi Macchello, an italian immigrant, when he was found out that he was a Specialist, he was transferred to Japan and started to work, he was extremely capable and easily entered on the top 5, just some ranks higher than XIao Mei herself.
He was nicknamed Ignis due to his targets that got always burned, it didn't matter if they were human intruders or Devourers, their bodies would be reduced to a pile of ashes.
In the elevator, Xiao Qiangwei and Xiao Mei were waiting to reach the 22th floor, where the boss is staying, and Xiao Qiangwei asked.
Xiao Qiangwei: So.. Who was he? It doesn't look like you like him...
Xiao Mei: He is Luigi Macchello, nicknamed Ignis, he is ranked 3rd, so his words are more valuable than mine, he is always too flirty with me, he's unbearable.. I would have hoped that he goes die somewhere against a Devourer, but..
Xiao Qiangwei: Don't worry mom, after this meeting maybe you will never see him again.
Xiao Mei: I hope so..
*Ding*
The elevator reached its destination, and the doors opened, revealing a long hall in front of them. At each side there were 4 doors and at the end there was a bigger door, it looked like they were walking to a boss room in a game..
Xiao Mei and Xiao Qiangwei walked by each one's side to the big doors, Xiao Mei knocked 2 times and waited for an answer, meanwhile a panel opened at the side of the door, and Xiao Mei put an hand over it, some seconds passed before it started talking.
*Identified: Xiao Mei*
*Ranked: 5th*
*Access confirmed, good morning Specialist, please open the door.*
Xiao Mei took a deep breath and opened the doors with a push before entering the room with her son.
The room was a bit dark, the only thing that was lighting it up was the sun that came from the window at the other side of the room, at left and right there were some decorations and two Specialists guarding the room, while at the other side there was a big desk and three chairs.
At the other side of the desk sat a really old man, he looked like 70 or 75 years old, but his face was completely different from what one would expect and had an aura of mysteriousness around him, even if Xiao Qiangwei was apathetic about it.
?: Welcome, Lightning Blade, I saw that you brought a guest too, please sit down...
