Lucie looked back and saw Charlus go back to sleeping on the couch. But Lucie was still confused. How did Charlus know her name when even she did not know. She wanted to go and wake him up to ask him but Denise came near her and pulled her away.

"Aren't you going to continue playing with me?" Denise asked Lucie. Lucie reluctantly left with Denise.

Charlus woke up early in the morning. He looked around and saw everything was as he remembered it. The only thing fresh on his mind was what he was supposed to do for the day - make Lucie guide him to wherever her brother was being held up and finish his business there.. 

While Charlus was enjoying his stay at Hollywood and it was practically a vacation to him, he had stuff to do. While he was goofing off, his A level difficulty quest wouldn't solve itself. Charlus needed to get stronger immediately.

Charlus went to the kitchen and made himself an omelette. He found a lot of eggs so he made another breakfast. This wasn't for himself. Once the breakfast was ready, he went to Lucie's and woke Lucie up. 

Lucie woke up and was surprised to see Charlus in front of her. She looked at the clock and saw that the time was 5 AM.

"It's just 5 AM. Go Away." She pushed Charlus away with little success.

"Today is the last day I am going to be here. I am planning on going back to Whitney High after today, whether we save your brother or not. So you could sleep the day, OR get your ass up and get ready. Your breakfast is ready but you will be having it on the way." Charlus rushed Lucie.

By the Lucie was ready and had finished her breakfast it was 5:30 AM. Charlus had finished writing Denise a note expressing his gratitude and apologizing for his hurried departure.

Charlus then walked with Lucie outside to the street.

"This is going to take forever. How can we go anywhere on foot?" Lucie complained to Charlus.

"I wasn't planning on going on foot." Charlus smiled and took out an object from his inventory.

[Soul Contract]

[One human will be bounded to you and will obey your orders]

Charlus handed it to Lucie and spoke. "Accept the offer. Take it or leave it."

Lucie looked at it with disbelief. "What the fuck is this?! How are you expecting me to say yes to this?! Is this a joke?!"

Charlus sighed. "What you are going to witness is a very valuable secret and soI cannot take any risks. I will make a deal with you. I will save your brother and let you be free. You just have to use the book I gave you to become powerful. You can also continue using the apartment. I'll give you an official lease so you won't have any complications. But all you have to do is accept this contract. My only demands are that you will never leak information about me and you will help me when I truly need your help."

Lucie was reluctant. "I am sorry. I will try to do this by myself."

Charlus sighed. He could understand Lucie's reservations.

"Fine. Tell me the address." Charlus asked Lucie for the address. Lucie looked at him with shock. She said it out loud after seeing Charlus' intense stare.

Charlus took his phone out and opened its location. He then turned to Lucie.

"Unfortunately, you cannot accompany me on this trip." Charlus disappeared from Lucie's line of sight. He appeared behind her and gave her a swift jab in the neck, knocking her out. He caught her in his arms.

Charlus then went back to the mansion and put Lucie back in her room. He left, acting as if nothing happened.

Once he was a safe distance from any cameras that he knew off, Charlus opened his wings and went to the sky. It was very early in the morning and it was still dark outside, giving Charlus some colour. He was wearing his equipment too so he wouldn't be seen by any onlookers.

Charlus checked his google maps from time to time to see if he was going in the right direction. Owing to the fact that he didn't get lost and that there wasn't any traffic, Charlus was able to land at the compound where Lucie's brother was allegedly held. He was ready to storm the compound but he had to be careful. Who knows if they had hostages inside. What would he tell Lucie if he got her brother killed?

Charlus saw an open window very high up on the warehouse that would normally be unreachable. Charlus flew towards it. He climbed slowly into the warehouse. 

Instead of entering immediately, Charlus first looked inside to check what he was up against. He wanted to know where his target was.

Charlus saw many cages and so he had to observe everyone one by one. He would do that later, after looking at how many guards were around.

Charlus saw three guards patrolling between the cages but they were all very sleepy and were barely paying any attention to what was going on.

Charlus smiled. He saw no one else in the warehouse except these two guards. And those two guards were very weak - only around Lvl 32. They were stronger than the average guards but not even remotely a threat to Charlus.

Charlus took his scythe out. He put on the same mask he used while killing the people in the Marconi Family Warehouse. He then took out his scythe.

He used his skill, Judgement, on all three of the guards. All of them were sinful.

Charlus swung his arm to warm it up. He then jumped down, descending upon the sinful beings who were still quivering from their experience of being judged.
