"Uhm, well, when people describe you I imagine an ugly demon that drinks the blood of the ones she kills, but right now even with your mask on, I feel like you are a lot more beautiful than any of those guys had described." The boy blushed 

[...]

'...'

"Did I say something wrong?" He stammered

"Don't worry about it" I sighed in exasperation. After looking up again, I did not glance at the boy anymore and walked into the bar nonchalantly while he nervously followed behind me.

"Can I have some wine from the gluttony sect?" I asked the bartender as I sat down on one of the stools.

The bartender who had been wiping a beer mug looked at me with a raised brow and a hint of surprise.

"What is it?" I glanced back

"We don't sell that here miss." The man narrowed his eyes before walking into the back, a staff-only area, in a bit of a rush.

"We should probably run..." The boy who I had already forgotten the name of, voiced

"We?" I sneered while swiftly getting out of my seat and rushing out of the bar before anyone could spot me, and as the boy is a lightning mage, he did not have much problem following me.

A few seconds later, I landed on a building a few kilometers away from the bar before glancing around to see if anyone had seen me.

"The whole city will be after you soon if you are not wary" the boy spoke from behind me.

"Why did you follow me?" I turned around and looked into his eyes.

"Uh-" 

"..."

It did not seem like he himself knew why he was here

'Eyes of vanity' I closed my eyes and opened them once again, however, this time pupils had become smaller while lines that created a 3-dimensional star of David surrounded it, spinning and rotating every now and then.

The moment he made eye contact with me, he froze while his own pupils shrunk while becoming dull and lifeless.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations on discovering a skill]

[You have discovered race skill, -Compulsion-]

[Compulsion - A skill created from the skill -Absolute Compulsion-, created by the original vampires to make feeding on human blood easier and more efficient. The weaker version of the skill, -Compulsion-, was later passed down to the younger generation and even other races such as succubus's, nature spirits, and all the nature nymphs whether those would Include mermaids or dryads.]

"Why did you follow me?" I asked again, this time in a much colder tone and narrowed eyes.

"To help you." A monotone voice came out of his mouth, yet it was the answer that had me with widened eyes.

"Help me?" I repeated

"Yes." He spoke with the same monotone voice once again.

"Me?" I scoffed

"Yes..."

"And what made you think I would need your help?" 

"I thought that my party, due to them being well known within the city, could help you out, and in return, you would be able to help us out with the mission of finding the members of the two guilds." He replied 

"But I am doing the mission, why would I go with you guys?" I scoffed again and turned towards the area of my residence.

"I thought it would be better if we both went together. This was the use of my philosophy of 'the more the merrier'"

'That sounds like an earth phrase' I sneered inwardly but I did not show it on the outside, not that he would remember any of this anyway.

[You should accept his offer]

'Why?'' raised a brow

[If they have not come out yet, they are either injured, dead, or captured. To capture someone as strong as Yuri and as innovative as Olivia, they would need a way to weaken them so they could not escape. If they are weakened, they will not be able to escape with you and therefore you need someone to carry them.]

Thinking for a moment, I took my chance and argued "Can't I just using magic to carry them all"

[Yes, that would be the case if you weren't fighting the big boss at the same time. We had already established that beast behavior around the city has become weird and the only reason the humans don't see it too is that they are way too narrowminded. If the beast behavior is abnormal, we can link this to the disappearance of the two guild masters and the guild members too, therefore concluding there is a mastermind behind this. This mastermind either wants people to keep away from a certain area, or they want to make distractions that would cause us not to look in a certain area. This is best done if you were to accept their invitation before splitting into groups. If they do not return, it means that the base might be in that direction.]

'k'

[...]

'What?'

[Were you even listening?]

'Y-Yes?' I shuddered

[What did I say?]

'Something about how I should team up with them before splitting up and using them as bait?'

[YOU WERE LISTENING 0_0]

'Why do you sound surprised?' I instantly turned gloomy

[Surpised? I am merely stunned that your brain is working for once and it had not fried from the amount of information I dumped on you :)]

'...'

[I might have spoken too early! DON'T WORRY HOST, I WILL SAVE YOOOOOOOoooooouuuu...]

'I hate you

***

After I had stopped my compulsion, I had watched the boy fall onto the ground before going unconscious. This basically forced me to take him back to my accommodation and take care of him.

While he was asleep, I went down to the shopping stalls where I bought lots of food, killed three guys who tried to attack me, bought more food, got swindled by a bunch of con artists, and finally, called June and told her about the situation.

She did not take the fact that I had done everything on my own very kindly, allowing her to give me a lecture about how I should be more considerate and less stupid for the lengthy time of over half an hour. 

While she spoke, I created soup for the boy to drink when he woke up. If he asks why I got him soup, I'll just say he had a fever and therefore had fallen unconscious
