Chapter 387 - Remembering The Old Days

Eva carefully looked through her sniper's scope again to see if the woman Nyissa was talking about was there or not. She clearly didn't have a complete picture of how this mysterious, powerful woman was supposed to look but based on the description Umilia had mentioned before, Eva was sure she didn't spot anyone that matched such a description.

In fact, she couldn't even spot any women on the outside.

"I don't see anyone like her outside. If she is here, then she may be inside, or maybe she is busy attending to more important things."

"It's fine. As we discussed, Umi and Nyissa, you two would be able to take on her if necessary, right?" Taya asked with crossed arms as they had already discussed the possibility of the mysterious woman being present.

Umilia and Nyissa exchanged a nod as Umilia said, "Last time, I wasn't careful in dealing with her. But this time, I won't be cornered, especially with Nyissa supporting me."

"Then let's move," Taya said as she took out her moon sabers that glinted subtly under the obscure moonlight.

*Slishh…*

"Hkkk…" The sound of a man choking on his blood faintly escaped for a tiny moment before silence descended as a slender figure wearing a black veil slowly laid him down on the ground after slitting his truth.

Based on what Eva said after scanning the faces of these heavily armed men, she had informed the others that these men were mercenaries involved in lots of illegal activities dealing in things ranging from human trafficking to worse.

This only made Taya and the others even more sure that whatever was going on inside this godown was nothing good.

Slowly and stealthily, one by one, the men began to disappear. With Eva's help from afar, the three women were able to take out the men while making sure they won't bump into anyone else.

It had been a long while since Taya took a life but killing these scumbags, it all came back to her just like riding a cycle.

Even to this day, she clearly remembers the day she took a life for the first time, and it was when she was just seventeen during one of her runs with Viktor.

At that time, she and Viktor had raided a place where a gang leader had been imprisoning young girls to be sold to brothers illegally.

As usual, Viktor left the easy ones to her, though the gang leader was nowhere to be seen. But it was only after Taya freed all the girls that she suddenly ran into the leader, and Viktor wasn't nearby.

In that heat of the moment, she had to quickly use the gun in her hand to shoot him before he could kill her. She only meant to incapacitate him but ended up killing him due to how shaky her hand was. But strangely enough, she didn't actually feel bad killing him. In fact, all she felt was a sense of satisfaction that she had gotten rid of such filth.

Viktor had left to escort the girls out safely and arrived right after she had killed the leader and took just one long look at her before he sighed. All he asked was one question…'Are you alright?'

To this day, she still has no idea why Viktor didn't ask anything else, but instead, he began to take her out on even more rounds.

And now, as she slit the neck of the mercenary before her, her eyes were cold as she laid him down. If Tiana had seen her like this, she would have had a hard time recognizing her.

Taya single-handedly took care of almost all the guards on the ground while Nyissa and Umilia took out the ones on the roof. Fortunately, all the cameras had been tampered with by Eva, and thus whoever was watching the live feed from the camera didn't suspect a thing.

Taya took a peek inside through one of the doors to see what was going on inside this godown. But all she saw was the inside of a typical godown, full of boxes and people moving here and there, moving and loading medical supplies. Nothing out of the ordinary.

However, she knew there was more to this picture when she saw two tall men wearing black sunglasses walking to and fro. Their faces were inexpressive, and whenever they walked past any people, the others wouldn't even dare to look in their directions. It was as if they were afraid of these two men for some reason.

Taya also noticed that these two men weren't even wearing armor but just a simple shirt and pants. One of them suddenly turned their head in her direction, making Taya quickly recede her head as she held her breath.

"Are we ready?" Umilia's voice suddenly sounded before her as Taya saw Umilia and Nyissa descending toward her.

"You were able to sense something?" Taya asked with a fixed gaze. She knew Umilia had the ability to pick up life energies from within the building.

Umilia nodded as she said, "I was able to sense people in an underground facility below this godown just like Eva said. But we have to be quick. It will only be a matter of time before they find out there are intruders."

Taya nodded as she asked, "Those two with the sunglasses inside. Are they what I think they are?"

Umilia already had sensed those two, especially with the strange flow of the odic energy present in their body.

"They are pseudo-vampires…just like the ones grand aunt fought off the other night. I can smell the murky energy inside their bodies. It screams to get purged," Nyissa said with a sharp glint in her eyes.

"Don't worry. I will shroud us with my energy, and Taya can do her thing to get past the door they are guarding. Nyissa, you can take care of those two, right?" Umilia said in a low voice as the other two nodded.

"Then let's get to the bottom of this. Eva, be ready for moving out any moment," Taya instructed as a faint white light began to radiate from Umilia's body, spreading and wrapping over Taya and Nyissa.
