Assassination Contract: The Copycat Gang?!

Today, Lionel had found himself in the general company of a comrade aligned with the guild of dark wizards known as Savage Skull, and another individual who Lionel had the distinctive honor of meeting on this lovely starry night. A midnight black hoodie adorned the naturally lean and muscular physique of the fair-skinned young adult male as his black locks were covered by the hood along with a majority of his face leaving only his mouth revealed to the naked eye. The top of the hoodie had two cat ears and was a bit baggy on his body. The sleeves were a bit long and have a few gold trims around the hands that look like the paws of a cat. With the pale moon abundantly exposed in heavens on this night, Lionel felt a bit of what could be deemed as romanticism. Yes, he had always envisioned at this point in his life that he would be going on a date with his first love and they would eat a lovely dinner under stars. To a certain extent, Lionel was going on a date. He was going to escort four teenagers to the underworld because they had the audacity to pretend they were members of dark guilds. But, he wasn’t interested at all in killing them. No, he had decided to take this job with his comrade when heard the teenagers had been killing and robbing merchants. He heard one of the merchants was carrying a bunch of precious gemstones before he was robbed. It was the pursuit of those precious gems which lead Lionel to take the job.

Lionel watched as the newcomer on the mission pulled out a golden key, and his eyes hidden behind his hood gleamed with boundless avarice at the sight. He wanted the key for his own, but his interest in it was short lived once the boy summoned forth a spirit. So the boy was a Celestial Wizard. He had nothing against Celestial Wizards, but their keys were a few of the treasures that Lionel personally as more of an annoyance than anything. Having to make a pact with the spirits and spirits had their own free will, it was silly in his opinion. “It seems that you are quite a capable one then coming up with such a plan.” A bit of laughter escaped Lionel’s lips at the remark as he stood back and reached into his hood accessing his own personal treasure trove of items and pulled out a chicken kabob that was still steaming due to the unique properties of his own pocket dimension. He took a bite of the delicious bird flesh and stared at them both. “Also, don’t kill them all in one go if you two don’t mind. I heard they robbed a few merchants too as I have my eyes on something interesting~” Lionel finished as he took another bite. “Oh sorry, I suppose I should introduce myself to you, since we are working together. The name is Cheshire, and I am a thief.”
