The Golden Resources Mall, one of the most luxurious malls in China, inaccessible to most foreign visitors and so expensive most of their own natives couldn't afford it
But with the new money her family had earned and she had improved on, she could comfortably spend on anything with her own leisure, however she wasn't here to just shop As usual, her face was covered by a white kitsune mask as she browsed, surrounded around her were twelve of her own A.B.Y.S.S. elite soldiers disguised as simple bodyguards, they observed the area with computer-like accuracy, paying attention to the most miniscule change in detail.
She entered a small onyx-marble room, a display of the most expensive jewelry in all of eastern Asia was displayed before her. However, one piece in particular caught her eye, a pendant gemstone, a flawless brown-yellow diamond, surrounded by a series of each diamond symmetrical placed relative to the pendant. It was beautiful, nothing more than that. A piece of jewelry to wear as she accomplished her goals against Mutantkind.
Her masked eyes pierced the gemstone with her icy glaze, a small smile curled around the corner of her lips. A small feeling of accomplishment coursed through her body as she placed the necklace around her neck, on cue, a man, walked from the backroom, startled at the figure in front of him. <My apologies Mistress Empress, I wasn’t aware that it was today.> The man bowed sheepishly, but didn’t return upright just yet. Even in this position, he could tell she was staring at him, almost as if she were piercing into his soul. <Save your apologies for later, As long as you aren’t totally incompetent>
Without any further word, a large metallic crate was carried from the backroom, it head the NuEmpress’’s insignia engraved on its corner. She placed her hand upon it, slowly feeling the details of the case.
<Mr. Mal-> As the manager opened his mouth, the White Masked woman glanced at him, cutting him off with her glaze. He immediately realized his mistake and rephrased his sentence.
<He said he went through a lot to give you this. And wants t-to know w-what he w-wants in return> The store’s manager’s voice was full of fear, but it was clear, know what would happen if he let his emotions disrupt the clarity. The Woman Being The Fox Mask seemed to be staring at him, as if he was giving her a predatory glaze. In reality, she was deep in thought, of what would please her client, one of the few she actually cared about. Until, she finally came up with an idea to appease her client.
<Let him know that he will be rewarded with the findings of our research, and we’ll provide him with a live specimen for his own trials.>
The clerk nodded, quickly pulling the metallic crate back for them to retrieve at a much later time. The NuEmpress strolled out, with two of her bodyguards behind her and the rest keeping their distance.
