[Equipment: …]
Looking at his depressingly low HP, Dorian took out multiple health regenerating items and nursed himself back to health.
This fight had been very dangerous, but the rewards were very well worth it. Dorian looked at Amanda and said "Lead the way."
But Amanda was looking at him dumbstruck, not moving, as if she couldn't understand what just happened. Dorian released a bit of his killing aura and said "Lead the way."
The awoke Amanda as she looked down and started walking again. They didn't have to walk for long before they reached Amanda's house.
Dorian wanted to ask her questions, to understand why would the Leaf target her, but he decided to remain silent, she probably wouldn't say, and Dorian didn't have any leverage to make her talk.
As they arrived in front of a modest house Amanda opened the door and asked "Mom, you're in there?" A female voice replied "Come in!"
Amanda looked at Dorian and nodded before entering the house. As they entered, Dorian saw a beautiful woman with fiery red hair coming their way. She looked at Amanda with a smile before freezing when she saw Dorian.

But Amanda immediately said "It's alright mom, it's not the Leaf. Can we sit, so I explain what happened?"
The woman nodded, but her body was tense, and her gaze never left Dorian's body.
Then, Amanda started explaining what happened, from the moment she arrived to the police station to the attack. Once she was finished her mother got up and bowed to Dorian "Thank you kind sir for saving my daughter and helping our family."
Dorian shook his head and replied "Don't bow, I'm helping Charles because he is my friend. And if I do find him, how am I supposed to tell him I let his daughter in harm's way?"
The woman raised her head and said "I am Lucie, Charles' wife. You wished to see me?"
Dorian nodded and said "It is about your husband. Do you know whether he had enemies?"
Lucie shook her head and said "The officers must have told you, Charles' didn't have any other enemies than the Red Scorpion Gang…"
Dorian shook his head and said "I don't care about what the officers said, you are his wife, he must have told you things. If you want to ever see your husband again, then tell me who is his enemy."
Lucie's face became conflicted, as if she hesitated whether to tell him or not. Seeing her hesitation, Dorian added "If you don't tell me I will stop wasting effort searching aimlessly."
Lucie sighed and said "Alright, he does have an enemy… Marcus, the City Lord." Dorian frowned and asked "How could they be enemies? Aren't they supposed to be on the same side?"
Lucie shook her head and said "Yes, they are supposed to be. But the police chief, who is the City Lord's lackey, ordered Charles to stop chasing after the Red Scorpion Gang. But Charles never stopped. Do you think they are the ones responsible for this?"
Hearing her, Dorian starting massaging his temples as he said "What kind of shitty situation did I put myself in…" Then, with a sigh Dorian got up and said "Alright, I'm done with you. Be careful and take care of your daughter."
Dorian didn't wait for her response and directly headed outwards. As he left the house, Dorian started walking away before entering stealth, and returning back to the house, still in stealth.
He waited next to the house for half an hour, but no one came. Only then did Dorian leave the area heading to his destination.
However, Dorian did not go to the City Lord Mansion to search for Charles, but instead headed toward the old windmill, where the Leaf said their base was.
If the ones who abducted Charles wanted to harm him, they would have already done it, so Dorian did not hurry there but instead decided to attack the gang.
Right now, they shouldn't have received the news already that the Leaf was killed, and if they did, they couldn't know he had revealed their base location to Dorian.
Dorian ran while in stealth all the way until he arrived at the windmill. There, he saw that someone was entering it. Dorian waited outside, and after a minute or so he entered it himself.
The inside was deserted, and no kind of base could be seen. No one would search for a base here. But Dorian already knew this was here.
He searched on the ground first, but because he found nothing he started searching on the walls. After some time, as his hand was feeling the wall, his finger seemed to pass on a strangely smooth area.
Dorian pushed on it, and a circular piece of the wall was pushed back. Dorian heard an opening sound, and when he looked behind him he saw the ground open itself, revealing a passageway.
Dorian did not tarry and entered the passageway, the opening closing itself once again.
The tunnel was very dark, and if his not for his enhanced senses Dorian believed he would be completely lost in there. But that did not bother Dorian, it was even to his advantage. Thanks to his stealth ability, adding in his [Fade] skill, Dorian was sure that even an elite soldier wouldn't see him if he looked straight at him.
Dorian explored the tunnel, until he finally found some light. On the way, he found several other tunnels, smaller ones, but Dorian decided to remain on the main path.
He couldn't help but wonder how the gangsters could navigate in those tunnels, a normal person would simply be blind, and even an elite soldier would barely be able to see their own hands. Only someone like Leaf with the mask enhancing his Perception would be able to see about a meter in front of them or so.
But Dorian was happy that he finally found some light, however he quickly realized something was wrong. The light was moving.
Dorian looked around and hurriedly shifted into a nearby sub tunnel, and pressed his body against the wall, as well as using [Fade].
Dorian heard the footsteps coming closer and closer, as well as the light becoming brighter. Dorian listened attentively and was able to notice two different footsteps.
Dorian slowed his breathing, his muscles tensed and his eyes sharpened, shining with a cold light.
Dorian suddenly saw two elites appear, walking next to each other, a torch in their hands. Dorian's body sprung up like a spring, and in an instant he appeared behind the two elites.
Dorian didn't used any weapon and instead used his hands to chop at both their neck, making them faint.
Before they could fall to the ground, Dorian grabbed the two torches and lit them off, returning the tunnel to its previous darkness.
Dorian put the torches in his bag and dragged the two unconscious bodies in the sub tunnel. He then used his knowledge from his skills to awaken one of the elites, with [Sampau's Claw] on his neck of course.
The elite woke up quickly and was shocked when he found himself in darkness, but he could feel a cold feeling on his neck, and then heard a voice say "I will ask you questions, and you will answer. If you dare raising your voice, I will torture you then kill you."
The elite nodded, but quickly stopped as merely doing that had cut open his skin. Dorian understood still and asked "Do you know the Leaf?"
The elite nodded, so Dorian asked "Do you know the Stingers?" He nodded again. Dorian asked "Who are they exactly?"
