Trigger Warning: Sensitive Content ahead.

On the other side of the city,

Ever since she was young, Xue Shen had hoped that she would one day become the brightest and one of the most talented hunters in the city.

The day she turned ten, she had been hoping for her time to turn for her to become a hunter with the highest rank, that way she would one day be able to get out of the slums and live a respectful life.

Who cared that her daddy was a mer who sold himself for money? No one would remember her shameless past as long as she brought huge chunks of money for the nation and her guild.

So when she was studying in a small school with her sister, which was the only thing that her daddy could afford, Xue Shen wrote essays on how she wanted to become an S-class hunter.

Xue Shen did not care that there were countless others who wanted the same thing. She felt proud and hopeful thinking that she would be the one who would surpass them all, as her senses had always been faster than the others.

But —

“Die! Die ! You fucking bitch!”

Xue Shen covered her head as she felt kicks and punches rain down on her head and body. She was lying on the floor with her sister, Xue You covering her body. The poor girl was trying her best to protect her but no matter what she did —nothing happened.

There was no way out for Xue Shen to save herself from the wrath of Chen Zian, their guild leader.

“I will kill you! You dumb daughter of a mer wh*re,” snarled Chen Zian as she kicked once again in the ribs. “You couldn’t even do something so simple as getting that woman to pick up a fight with you? How useless you could be?”

“Stop! Please— please let my sister go,” Xue You sobbed as she hugged her sister, her eyes were trickling with tears but no one heard a single word.

Instead, Chen Zian who had been paying attention to Xue Shen raised her head and looked at her with fury ignited in them.

“Let go? If I let go of her, who will let go of me?” Chen Zian snarled as she raised her foot and delivered a kick right under Xue You’s chin sending her flying.

“Xue You!!!” Xue Shen, who was being beaten black and blue, shouted. She tried to get up from the floor but she was brought back down by the rest of the high-ranking hunters.

They snickered and laughed at her situation while enjoying the sight of her covered in bruises and wounds.

Chen Zian spat out a tuft of smoke and blew it in the air before looking at Xue Shen. She raised her foot and then smashed it into Xue Shen’s face such that her face was now pressed into the dirt.

She twisted her foot as if she was squashing a bug and mimicked, “Xue You!! Hah! If you feel so sorry for her, why don’t you do a good job? It is bad enough that your daddy is not serving me well enough in the bed and now you are messing up everything.”

“Listen to me Xue Shen— you better buck up. If you continue making mistakes like these then I will send you and your family out of this place. Let’s see if you will survive in the city with that pathetic rank of yours.”

She crouched down and patted Xue Shen before pushing a bunch of injections into Xue Shen’s hands. Chen Zian said to her, “Make sure that you give these to your daddy, ask him to serve me well tonight. Maybe I will take pity on you and give you another chance.”

Once she was done speaking Chen Zian got to her feet and walked away with her guffawing friends. They seemed to be finding it quite amusing. Something that Xue Shen could not understand.

“Sister! Are you alright?” Xue You dragged her small body towards her sister and questioned. Earlier this morning she had somehow managed to save her sister but it seemed like she had made a mistake.

“I am fine, this happens every day, after all,” Xue Shen answered with an annoyed voice. She wiped the blood that was trickling down the side of her mouth and stated in a cold voice, “What about you? Are you alright?”

“I am alright, too,” smiled Xue You bravely. “I am strong, sister.”

Xue Shen felt a bit guilty. If not for the fact that both she and her sister turned out to be F-class hunters, no one would have treated them like this.

“Let’s go—,” began Xue Shen as she got to her feet. She was about to tell Xue You that they should go and visit her friend.

After all, there was no way she was going to tell her daddy that he should prepare himself for serving Chen Zian. Even if she was at the bottom of the apex, she was not going to ask her daddy to do something so dangerous and lowly.

But then—

“You! Shen’er!” Daddy Xue came running. He was wearing a faded long t-shirt and shorts, and his long hair was whipping behind in the air as he rushed towards his daughters. “What —oh dear, did Chen Zian catch you again?” he asked.

His eyes followed his eldest daughter’s injuries before saying, “I can’t understand that woman—I thought that she was going to give you an opportunity. What is the meaning of this?”

Xue Shen’s cheeks turned red as she turned to look at her daddy and asked, “Did you go to her? Did you really do it when I asked you to not bother?”

“Shen’er, I just—”

“You just what!?” Xue Shen yelled as her anger got the best of her. “I told you that I can take care of things here! Why did you have to bother!? Do you think it is not embarrassing enough that we are called the children of a mer wh*re?”
