"I will be sending one person with you and her name is June. She is also part of our Guild and you two will be working closely on important missions in the future. She is an A-rank mercenary at the 2nd Tier of the Gold Ascension stage. The reason I chose someone with such high power and ranking is that this mission has a chance of becoming an A-rank mission or even higher." Her face became complicated making me understand something 

"What is the mission?" I asked with a worried expression.

"Regional Guildmaster of the Pheonix guild, Regional Guildmaster of the Thunder Dragons guild plus a few other people have recently gone missing. Your mission is to investigate this occurrence before coming back immediately. I don't want you to fight anyone or anything unless you have been pushed back into a corner where the only way out is to fight. This is a stealth mission, not a fight and defeat mission... Is that understood?!" Rose had an extremely serious expression on her face.

"Yep" I replied excitedly. 

Of course, I wasn't going to listen! 

What kind of person would I be if I did listen?

The main point is that if I was about to go on a mission, I was going to fight everything I saw no matter what it was.

Human? Consider it done!

Beast? I'll think about not fighting it!

Monster? It's already dead...

I wasn't really sure if I would meet anyone from another race, but if I did, I would choose at the moment if they decided to die or live.

"So when are we going to meet this... Uh... What is her name again?" I scratched my cheek

"June Damnit! If you aren't going to take this serio-"

"I owe you my sincerest apologies. Please forgive me as I have sinned" My personality took a 180-degree turn as I found myself kneeling under this tyrannical woman without hesitation. Her eyes gleamed for a few seconds before they turned dark and her mouth twitched.

She for some reason felt an itching sensation coming from her fist, but she suppressed it and looked at me coldly.

"Fail this mission without a good reason will mean reduced pay for 3 months with a temporary downranking. Exceed and you will get 1000 gold coins and a rank up to the B rank. How about it?" 

"Deal" I immediately agreed, making her lip twitch once again

"It is probably better if we go meet your teammate now. You will have 3 days to prepare whatever you will need for the next week to a month. I suggest you pack things for the next two months in case anything goes wrong" She suggested while we walked towards the meeting area.

Almost half an hour later, we finally got to the entrance of a Universal bar. This bar, a bit like the one in the guild registration hall allows anyone of any guild to come in. The guards were all easily in the A-rank in case a fight broke out, while at the same time, crystals in the middle of the tables were embedded with runes that made it so one could block the sound from the inside from reaching the outside.

Many people would come here to celebrate after finishing a mission or two, while many just used it as a meeting area or even a chilling area where they could relax and let go of their day-to-day worries.

Immediately after walking inside, I could feel the lustful gazes of some of the men directed at both me and Rose, while on the other hand, I could feel the envious gazes of the women locking their sights onto different parts of both our bodies.

I swiftly released a domineering aura using the divine aura that always came out of me like a fountain, making the women and men stop staring at me and instead, just stare at Rose.

Rose seemed to have done something right after me because a few seconds later, I watched as everyone in the room shuddered to their literal souls before looking away with the fear remnant in their eyes.

Only one person had not realized our entry, and that was a young girl who drank mug after mug of beer without stopping. People around her cheered while the bartender simply smiled and crossed out a few numbers on the chalkboard.

'A DRINKING GAME!' I shouted inwardly like a kid who had found a new toy.

I looked at the brown-haired, twin-tailed girl who grabbed another mug and gulped down the beer once again.

She wore a nice black jacket with a red interior, black thigh-high boots, and a professional white and black shirt and tie underneath. On her belt, she carried a medium-sized blade that was not short enough to be called a short sword, yet not long enough to be identified as a katana. 

It was something in between the two.

As we walked closer and closer, the environment became more and more silent. While at first, they might have been looking at everything underneath our faces, the moment they saw my mask, every single person in the bar became weary whether they were drunk or not.

Almost every single person in the city knew who I was. It was to the point where I could no longer turn back and therefore, I made it my goal to become a scary character parents would tell their children about before going to sleep or to tell them off. My secondary goal was to get my masculinity back, but in front of my first goal, getting my masculinity seemed like an ant in front of a boulder.

Who cares that I am a woman, am I right? 

It only makes me more scared of my enemies. Yes, I might inherently have fewer rights than the average man, but that can easily be undone with a bit of power, right?

Eventually, the bar had gotten deathly silent, to the point the twin-tailed girl stopped drinking and started to look around to see what was happening.

"Hello there.... How about we have a bet?"
