It wasn't long before Nero found Kyle, hanging out in the backstreets of Crocus, his pompous attitude giving him away in an instant. Nero gritted his teeth lightly as he approached him, faint bloodlust radiating from his body. Normally an approach like this would be a bit excessive, but with someone on the darker side of things, Nero knew he couldn't simply ask him nicely to return the money. Thankfully the intimidation went well and fairly quickly Nero was on his way back to the inn to report back to Batra. However, things didn't go as smoothly as planned.
"That fucking tapeworm..." Nero said while grinding his teeth, fists clenched as his bloodlust oozed from his body. He didn't expect to be conned by a conman, especially one he had just threatened. It seemed like this toadfish took him for a joke? That was all well and fine then with him. Nero proceeded to release his mana into the surrounding air, reaching out like tendrils to survey the area around him and increase his perception throughout Crocus.
