Location: Ellisville, Border Town. Somewhere in between Aurelian and Nirvana Empire.

Ellisville doesn't have a long history unlike the other towns. It was established as a by-product of the Non-aggression pact between the two sides.

People who couldn't make it in either of the nations, somehow ended up in this town. That includes even the dark mages and the people with minimum to non potential.

Though the majority of the people here were humans, they only made about 40% of the people here. The other included 35% Elves, 20% demihumans and the other 5% composed of travelers who were on the move.

Despite the difference, the people here were united, living their lives without much problems. So, you might find an elf with a human, or even a demihuman here, laughing and smiling as if they were best friends.

And even though they can't show it openly, people here even accept Dark Mages as long as they don't create any trouble for the Town.

Doesn't that make it the best town in a way? Where there is no discrimination among the people and everyone strives to be happy without any power struggle?

If only things were as simple as that.

It's more of a business here for them than living here, but for the stronger demihumans, it actually becomes a home since they could earn pretty good by doing other people's dirty work.

And one of the strong demihumans was out here to take out another target in the middle of the night.

The Demihuman was a wolfman swordsman who had a 100% accomplishment rate. It wasn't because he was just strong, but he was pretty much careful as well.

Walking in the middle of the night, he followed the man towards the blind alley. Unlike normal days, the entire market was closed and everyone was already in their homes, shutting the windows and the doors as if a plague had come.

"Hey Pal! What's your name?" The wolfman spoke, stopping the other man in his tracks. His eyes were still cautious as he looked at that man turning around.

'Blue eyes, black hair.' The wolfman noted the features.

"Ummm... do I know you?" The man asked a bit confused as he looked at the wolfman.

"You are the guy who arrived a month ago, right? The one who is expert in making small arrays? I actually wanted to ask for help with an array. Can you help me with it?" the wolfman asked, getting one step closer to him, slowly and carefully.

"Ah! You are a customer, huh? Sorry. The shop is closed. You can come again tomorrow," he spoke with a kind smile.

"I guess so. But that's too bad though," the wolfman spoke as he reached really close to him and answered," you won't be going to the shop... ever again."

"Am I being threatened here?" the man chuckled, making the wolfman narrow his eyes at him before he took out his giant sword and placed it on the neck of the blue haired man.

"What do you think, Mr Wesker?" Wollfman asked with a serious gaze, while he prepared himself for an attack that the man was going to throw at him.

But to his surprise, that man just spoke a single sentence that threw the wolfman off the loop in an instant.

"What if I say, I know where your sister and mother are, Mr Finar Regalia?"
