Wall Street, USA

In a quiet and tense room, a sharply dressed man spoke with a cold and firm tone to an adult man standing before him. The pale expression on the man's face reflected his disbelief and despair.

"Due to your deteriorating performance lately and the company facing a crisis, the senior executives have decided to terminate your employment," the suited man said hoarsely, delivering the bitter news.

However, the man receiving the news couldn't accept the decision so easily. He convinced himself that his performance had outshined others, even propelling the company beyond global competition. His anger surged as he gritted his teeth and glared angrily at the suited man.

"But why am I being fired?! I have made significant contributions to this company! I have proven myself!" he exclaimed, his voice trembling as he fought against what seemed like an unjust decision.

Her eyes lingered on Kazuki's hand, a flicker of recognition crossing her face as she pieced together the significance of what she was witnessing."That... It's a Location Ring!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with a mixture of surprise and familiarity. Of course, she knew the ring well, for she was the one who had bestowed a pair of Location Rings upon her daughter. The rings were among the treasured possessions of the Agistria family, holding deep meaning and purpose."You're right, it is a Location Ring," Kazuki affirmed, his voice resonating with an almost reverent tone.

    *** In the negotiation room, a tense atmosphere prevailed as Kazuki put forth his opinion. "Aizen, I understand that your plan has good intentions," Kazuki said calmly, "but I have a different idea that might be more effective." Aizen stared at Kazuki in surprise but allowed him to explain. "What do you propose, Master?" Kazuki elaborated on his plan in detail, outlining how they could seek assistance from Hermit, the Head of the Adventurer's Guild in Nivaria City. "I believe that we can gain broader help and information through Hermit's network. Additionally, we can conduct our investigation more covertly this way." Aizen pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. "You make a valid point. Let's involve Hermit in our efforts." *** Kazuki and Aizen agreed to invite Hermit to the headquarters of the War Division.

Stare Stacks of reports and balance sheets lay scattered on his laptop in front of him, reflecting a busy activity after the thrilling meeting last night. Ring~ Ring~ Ring~ Suddenly, the communicator on his desk vibrated, but it wasn't an ordinary message; it was an emergency message. "Hmmm...? What's going on?" Kazuki quickly grabbed it and read the message. His face turned serious as he read the news about a vampire attack in the city of Nivaria and injured members of the War Division! "Vampire attack... and injured members?" Kazuki mumbled to himself, slightly puzzled. Until now, he hadn't known about this. Nevertheless, the situation seemed very serious since it warranted an emergency message. He knew they wouldn't use an emergency message unless the issue was beyond their control. He knew quick and precise action was required.

In an instant, Aizen conjured a massive fireball with a diameter that was extremely large and directed it towards the vampire with a devastating power-!! Fireburst-!! Burn-!! However, the vampire easily dodged it. But before he could place his foot on the tree branch beside him, suddenly an arrow coated with white light pierced his heart. Thud- Crunchhhh-!!! "Aggghhhh-!!!!" Crash-!! And then, the vampire collapsed to the ground. Aizen glanced to his side, seeing that there were still around 12 vampires remaining that they needed to eliminate in order to secure their safety and gather information about them. "Aizen-!!

That person was Chairman Bradley, the Secretary-General of the UN. "W-what did you just say... you abducted them all, then controlled them-?!!!!!!!" Bradley shouted in disbelief, echoing in his quiet living room. Kazuki activated his "God of War" skill, causing Bradley to feel the aura and shiver in fear. “…!!!” In his own home's room, Bradley now resembled a trapped mouse facing its predator. "Bradley, if we eliminate the de facto power of a country within the UN, you are the highest-ranking person in the world. If you were given two choices, the first being a human, or the second being a demon, which would you choose?" Kazuki calmly said while crossing his arms. "What-what is that? Obviously, I would choose the first one." Grinned...!! "Huhuhuhuhhh, good! You've given the right answer. You know, in the world of politics, there are no etern
