The night had come, a lot of PD went out patrolling once again.

A team of 5 Public Defenders was patrolling in front of the Esper Association building in Lima City. They were all men, their bodies were big, full of muscle.

They were all elites of the Esper Association, everyone in the Team was at least B-Ranked Esper, with their team leader being S-Ranked Esper.

Their job was simple, to make sure that no one enter the Esper Association’s building. From the outside, it seemed like the Esper Association only asked 5 people to guard the building, but there were tons of Elites inside the building.

They were ranged from C-Ranked Esper to the strongest S-Ranked Esper. The reason why the security was so strict because of a guest. The Esper Association’s branch director had a guest from the headquarter, he was an important person that made a certain experiment possible.

So he was treated like a VIP, and now he was sitting in the branch director’s office, on the topmost floor of the building. The office was simple, with a working desk, two sofas facing each other, and a table between the sofa.

There was no luxurious decoration whatsoever, it was an office that was designed for work. However, the door was using a special lock that could only be opened by the director or a special key.

Not only that, the room had perfect sound isolation, so it was the safest and perfect place for talking about a secret deal.

The branch director of the Esper Association in Lima City was the former president of Peru, he was now acting as the highest authority of the Esper Association in Peru.

He was a man in his sixties, with short gray hair and a wrinkled face. His name was Dario de Lima.

The guest looked like an ordinary man with black hair in his twenties, but he was actually older than he look. He was wearing a suit, but the shirt underneath the suit was unbuttoned, showing a glimpse of a sun tattoo on his chest.

Both of them were sitting on a sofa across from each other while drinking wine that was on the table. Two glasses were prepared, and a bottle of wine that looked expensive was placed on the table.

“It’s an honor to meet you, Mr. Romanni. I never thought that you will visit our branch office.” The branch director, Dario, said with a polite tone as he took the glass of wine and brought it to his mouth.

“You don’t need to do that, branch director. I am just a man who holds no position in the Esper Association.” The man, Mr. Romanni, smiled at Dario.

He took the glass of wine that was prepared for him and took a sip from it.

“Hmm, this is delicious.” Praised Mr. Romanni.

“Ah, of course. This wine is the best that I got, it’s Ampoule from Penfolds. I take it out especially for you, Mr. Romanni.” Dario raised the glass that he held and extended his hand.

Mr. Romanni understood what Dario wanted to do, he raised his glass too and the two glasses touched each other, creating a beautiful bell sound.

Ding.

Both of them smiled at each other before they drank the wine in the glass. After they sip around half of the wine, they put the wine on the table and the atmosphere turned serious.

“So, Mr. Romanni. How can I help you today?” Asked Dario with a serious tone.

He was an experienced man, he dealt with a lot of things already. From the normal negotiation to the shadiest business. He had experienced them all, so he knew that Mr. Romanni in front of him needed something.

A person of Mr. Romanni's caliber wouldn’t even visit Peru if he didn’t have a request for him, the director of Peru Esper Association’s branch. The Esper Association concentrated its power on Avos Island, as well as another artificial base located in Antarctica.

A country like Peru was indeed under the Esper Association’s control, but that didn’t mean the Esper Association had a lot of power here. If there was a notable thing from Peru, it was its location.

Peru was located a bit away from Japan and Germany, and Dario guessed that Mr. Romanni, the contributor of Esper Association was now running away.

He knew that Mr. Romanni was the one behind the Riot, as every director of the Esper Association who knew the truth behind their dirty work was informed beforehand. That was why there was no Riot in Peru.

“I just want to stay here for a while. I mean, in this country. You know my situation, aren’t you? Right now Mugetsu, or rather, Akasa Naomi, is in Germany. I think you know what I mean by that.”

Mr. Romanni crossed his legs and joined his hands on top of his thighs. He had a businessman smile on his face, and Dario also put on the same smile.

“I know. You wanted a refuge. So, what do I get if I hide you from that monster? You do know that she now has an official position, her move will be limited.”

Dario believed that. The reason why Germany gave Naomi the position as Lieutenant-General was to hold her, to control her.

The Esper Association had been at odds with Germany for a long time now. They had no power in Germany and only had a small branch in Berlin.

The reason why they could build the branch office in the first place was because of Akasa Inc.

The Esper Association negotiated with Mizuki to help them build a branch office in Germany, in exchange for allowing Akasa Naomi to attend the Avos School. But, who knew that the situation turned out to be like this.

“I doubt that.” Said Mr. Romanni. Dario didn’t understand why Mr. Romanni said that.

Mr. Romanni appeared to be calm, but he was afraid of Naomi. He might be acting rashly, mainly because he got his hand on an amazing power that could make anyone obey him.

However, his instinct as someone from the Underworld had warned him. Akasa Naomi wouldn’t stop until she found him dead.

“She is not someone like that. My decision of leaving my base and Avos Island was proved correct. If I stayed in that place any longer, I would be dead right now.”

He slowly took the glass on the table and drank the remaining wine in the glass.

“I see, but you didn’t answer me yet. What do I get if I allow you hide in my country?” Dario said clearly.

He said that Peru was his country. While he was not wrong, he took a thing too far. He was just a former president, and now he was just a director of Esper Association’s branch.

“I will give you a lot. Money, women, just name it.” Answered Mr. Romanni with a sly smile. “You do know my ability.”

Dario stayed silent for a while. He thought about the advantage of letting Mr. Romani hide in Peru.

After a while, he made his decision. However, when he was about to say something, he heard a girl's voice from behind the desk.

“Unfortunately, I think this deal will not go anywhere.”

Dario and Mr. Romanni were surprised. They immediately stood up from the sofa and looked in the direction of the voice.

“Impossible…” Mr. Romanni muttered. He couldn’t believe what he saw.

Sitting on the chair behind the desk with her legs crossed and her lips curved in a smile was Naomi. She was wearing a suit and black gloves. Beside her stood Melaine who crossed her arms.

“Ya, I found you.” Said Naomi calmly.
