Kael was out with Ice Reaper, this time holding the pale blue scythe while wearing his Master of Cards mask and a white tuxedo.

"Shall we?" Kael asked.

"Let us go, master." Kael leaped to the buildings with the scythei n his hand. Searching for the buildings that were connected to this particular group of human traffickers. The data that he got from the Gods? It was far better intel than anything. The details of their stomping grounds, the number of members. The members that were connected and the headlines of their crimes. Even down to their Modus Operandi.

There were rumors that circulated Matello of such groups and Kael did not learn of their fate until the many lives later. The human trafficking group were known as the Pied Pipers. Like the famed Piper of Hamelin who took the children away and they were never to be seen again. Only these kids were to be 'adopted' by the depraved souls with the money for it.

The money would be given to an offshore account which cannot be traced and this was an easy way out for things to continue. Sometimes Kael has to think about how depraved humanity is as a whole, if given the opportunity even the kindest of souls could become devils. Kael had seen it with his own eyes. Being the Avatar of Destruction another offering Kael could do, would be to step into battlefields and watched the destruction that was left behind. He watched how a mother used her body to protect her infant child from gunfire. Another instance, was when Kael watched a father screaming as he carried the corpse of his child in his hands.

Such scenes turned Kael to be cynical, making him realize that evil is best to be cut off before it festers. Ice Reaper was the best one for the job, not because of its name but because Ice Reaper was far more independent than the other blades. The most stable and calm. Kael found himself on a ship that was leaving Matello. Kael felt people being put inside of cargo containers, they were all cramped in like canned sardines. Despair, anguish, fear and uncertainty. Anxiety. Many emotions were running from them and they were feeding directly to Ice Reaper.

Kael was standing atop the radio, he was tiptoeing on it.

"I can understand the coolness factor of such a stance... But Master, isn't this too much as one of your cartoons and those foreign animations?" Ice Reaper spoke up as Kael observed the cargo ship''s crew. Armed to the teeth with assault rifles, they will be no match for an Adept.

"I never thought I'd be hearing that from you. Well, shall we?" Kael jumped down and began his work. The soldiers turned, catching a glimpse of the pale blue scythe. A quick swing that tore bodies in half.

"Contact! We've got an intruder! Target i-" The one who spoke by the radio was taken out by another figure. It was Ice Reaper wearing his cloak, running at the other threats. They fired into the skeleton, not seeing it stop as its pale blue hands tore their limbs apart. The glowing red eyes contrasts with the plae blue skeletal frame. This was Ice Reaper in his natural habitat, going after all of them. It has been a while since Kael saw Ice Reaper let loose, perhaps due to the knowledge that Ren was someone who had been endangered by these people in a previous life.

Ice Reaper ripped a soldier in half by the shoulders, then smashing a person's face with his fist. Turning another soldier into ice.

Despite being brutal, Ice Reaper was not roaring. The primary focus was to destroy them and he did. Kael did not even need to do much as Ice Reaper had blood over his cloak and hands by the end of it. Kael opened the doors to the containers. The people stepped out as he destroyed the shackles that held them.

"Yo." Kael heard a familiar voice. He was sure he dialed the emergency line.

"Tony? I was calling the cops."

"Don't bother, turns out majority of the higher ups are corrupt. They knew about the Child Trafficking plan. I mean, I know I am not a saint but putting people in a cargo ship like a can? That's low... Even for my standards." Kael heard Tony firing his pistol in the background.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

"Oh yeah, by the way. The gun's name is Wyatt. You were right. After I fixed the gun up, it's been talking to me ever since. Makes a good conversation buddy. That and the gun shoots better than anything I own." Tony informed as Kael as he saw a boat from the distance.

"By the way, some smoking hot woman named Vartin gave a tip that you were going to hit the port tonight. So I sent my boys via a boat to help you sort that out. As for the people? I'll try and figure something out. They deserve better... Most of them are our own people anyway. Thanks for helping them Kael. Now, sit tight. I gotta sort out some corrupt cops for a bit." Tony hung up as Kael watched the boats arrive, they knew who Kael was when Kael took off the mask.

Some of them were a little antsy, perhaps because they've heard the rumors and the stories. Perhaps some of them watched Kael that manager at the hotel. They handled the scared victims carefully, not by force. Vartin... Vartinius. One of the Three Gods of Lust and Depravity. Kael was trying to understand the logic behind it. Kael thought that the trio would be fine with what has happened but this was a bit bizarre.

Kael headed home, only to see three figures by the door. A woman and two men. One of the men was handsome and masculine to a fault while the other was androgynous that if he wore a dress nobody would be at fault to mistake them as a girl. This was definitely it, the three Gods of Lust and Depravity. Vartinius, Alaika and Itri. Vartinius was a bombshell to a fault, if one were to ask the definition of lust. It would be her, anyone that sees her will see her as their ultimate sexual desire in a woman. Alaika is for the men and Itri is for those who swing both ways.

"I think it's a bit weird. Why you gave the information to Tony." Kael said where Vartinius stepped close, placing her hands over Kael's chin.

"Why would it be?" Alaika asked as he scratched his neck. Even when stretching his neck, unintentionally flexing his muscles out. That is the God of Lust and Depravity for you.

"We may not look like it Kael... But we do disagree with a lot of the things we've seen here. Especially if it involves children." Itri spoke with a gentle voice, hesitant to even say the word 'Children' completely. Then it took a moment, Kael understood why. All three of them are parents when they were mortals. Prior to their ascension.

"It's one thing if it is a group of adults just losing themselves to the temptations of sexual desires... But it is another thing if they force it on children. I became the God of Lust because I watch it destroy the many things that corrupted bastards build." Vartinius said, scorning the words out of her mouth as she crushed the can in her hand.

"I'm sorry Kael... We did not mean to bother you." Kael then pulled out his phone to show something.

"An Erotica Festival? Put on your masks so that you can enjoy yourself without needing to worry about naything too much." Itri read then looking at Kael.

"It's a place for a lot of things. If you want to read erotica stories, comics, novels or even just watch people do all the... Stuff I don't want to talk about. Try going there. You can sweet talk the owners of the festival tomorrow morning. I'm sure they'd enjoy more with you. That and the Festival has its own perks with everyone to their needs." Kael said where Vartinius smirked.

"Oh you handsome devil. We'll go and have fun. Take care, Kael." Kael headed back into his house, seeing Yueliang Hua and Xuehua just sitting by the living room watching a chinese drama. One that if memory serves, is the story of them. It must have been interesting to see how badly wrong the show did. Yueliang Hua is as beautiful as a woman and handsome as a man but the show depicted him as a woman.

Such is the fate of legends but it's not a big issue. Kael looked at Ice Reaper who was floating by the room, seems that Ice Reaper is resting after an eventful evening. Kael needed a break as well, though he was unsure about how to feel knowing the Trio of Gods are going to be at that festival tomorrow. Will it be chaotic or reach a point that it will have to be banned?

The next day, Kael could see the chaos as Lloyd told the family that they would be moving somewhere bigger. It was going to be a villa, one that was awarded by Patriarch Webster for Lloyd's recent venture and the success of it. It was still in the city and it will not change Ren or Jenny's school. The move? It was fast becuase the swords helped out completely, and when they went to the villa. What they found was that it was a secluded villa. No neighbours, nobody and a plot of land that was large.

The entire property, heck the villa's location is in a private property thaThen there was another problem that Kael found. The entire area had this strange sensation lurking in it. Felt like they were being watched. Even Kael's swords were reacting to it. Particularly Radiant Sonata and Black Symphony.

"Master... I think we've.. Got something else to worry about." Kael stepped out to see a few beasts roaming the property.

"This is going to be a long day." Kael said to himself.
