Shinobi From Hell

'But this time, it's certainly not something I want to get involved with.'

Klautz nodded.

Klautz had always believed that getting involved with Gozoto could do him no good. Gozoto wasn't that important in the political landscape of hell either. Nor is he able to help Klautz in his growth. He was just a mercenary who sometimes acted as a supervisor of the camp as a part time job since it occurred only once in a year.

What was the point in getting involved with him? In the end, even after receiving the message Klutz's opinion of him didn't change.

"He won…," Selena whispered to herself as she laid back in her chair. Her pupils rippled in a faint glow.

She had expected something like this once the match became a 'compulsory' one. But she hadn't expected such a speedy battle. Colt was defeated even before he could execute his final move.

It was like she was watching a veteran fight and the match was over even before she could blink her eyes. It all seemed like a magic. A magic that ended even before the audience could figure out the actual trick behind it. For such was the nature of a trickster who proposes tricks as magic.

Had one of the second gens read her thoughts they would have scoffed at her for not knowing what true magic was! But she wasn't born in hell, she was an earthling. It was only natural that she would have her own interpretation of what magic meant.

Klautz victory made her excited and proud. But it turned out someone was even more elated with such a victory.

"That was amazing! Big Sis, did you see how cool he was?" Shizu beamed.

Never once had she thought during the whole match that Klautz was stronger. Yet Klautz was able to turn the tables.

Selena nodded.

"I did,"

"Ha Ha, that was really satisfying. It was worth the money. Didn't thought I would be getting to see Colt beaten up."

A smile bloomed on her face as both she and Klautz shared a common enemy. Their alliance had certainly proved to be fruitful.

"Yeah, you better give him a tip for your satisfaction. At least he can't scam you anymore."

Selena winked as she burst into laughter. Shizu face was dyed in a tinge of red at her earlier outburst.

"Hmph! I will think about it later. For now we have to congratulate Klautz!"

A topic found couldn't have been better to change the course of the talk.

Selena nodded. She had been feeling it for a while now. Klautz's cool side was enough to make her drool over him but she was keeping it hidden for a while now. She wanted to let loose.

But it turned out that she wasn't the only one who was drooling over him.

"Damn, he makes me shiver every time I see him. I can't even believe he is one of us."

"Yeah, me too. I wonder how I could have missed him out."

Selena's ears twitched as two feminine voices were endorsed in their own gossip. She couldn't help but freeze in her one tracks.

"Do you think he is single?"

"Ho Ho, our mischievous lady has set his eyes on a man I see."

"What's wrong with that? Isn't he a savvy one?"

Selena couldn't help but frown as she realized that some vixens were eyeing her man. Shizu's amazement towards Klautz was childish at best but these bitches seemed to be lecherous enough to not even hide their treacherous thoughts.

Her brows twitched as she looked around. None of the newbies seemed to be leaving the theatre anytime sooner unlike the two of them.

All of them had cluttered in groups leaving their stage as they gossiped amongst them.

Selena's pupils shook.

"Are they all…"

Her eyes widened.

Her heart beat quickened as the danger she felt from them became the real deal. A sudden  surge of adrenaline rushed through her veins as she felt the need to rise to the threat.

Klautz had always been a mystery no matter where he went. His sauuvy attitude added with his quick victory made it quite quick for him to pull some heart strings. Unfortunately for Selena she wasn't the only one whose heart was affected by it.

In fact, Klautz wasn't as mysterious for her as compared to the others. They couldn't help but be more affected by it.

"This is bad…"

There were many things about the match that Selena could easily predict from beforehand but this was something she had certainly not predicted. It came out of nowhere.

Klautz had predicted it. But both of them had completely different opinions.

For Klautz it was a surge of his admirers who had the possibility of becoming his future followers. But for Selena? It was a sudden surge of his fan girls instead!

If she were to consider Klautz's uncontrolled lust there was only one outcome that such a thing can bring about! And it would be the end of her if that were to happen.

*gulp*

The more she thought about it the more hopeless she felt.

"Shizu, we need to find Klautz as soon as possible!" Her voice itself carried haste, even more so when Shizu had decided to look around for Klautz.

"Ah, why?" she tilted her head.

Selena bit her lips. What could she say? Can she say that she was fearful that Klautz was already sowing in some random girl?

She clenched her fists.

"We have to congratulate him don't we?"

"Ah.. yes."

Selena grasped onto Shiuz's hand as she pulled her out of the cloud. Selena would have looked for him all alone but there were some places in the building that a newbie wasn't allowed to enter. The third floor was one of them.

Both of them left hand in hand but Selena was more troubled than ever.
