Fantasy Assassin in a modern world

The Harada Family

Harold who was snacking while enjoying watching a vtuber playing a retro video game was suddenly interrupted by a call. Harold saw that the person calling him was none other than Loki so he quickly picked it up.

“Tell me everything you know about the Harada Corporation and the Harada family and how do I destroy them.”

Loki went straight to the point his tone made Harold feel a chill down his spine. Harold might be considered a genius, but he was still a kid. He didn’t really want to deal with such a dangerous person, those were his initial thoughts, but.

‘I wonder why I’m feeling a bit excited...’

“What do you mean to destroy? Do you mean that you’re going to kill all of the family members of the Harada family?”

When Loki heard Harold’s question, he snapped out of his rage. That was right, he was angry at the heir of the Harada Family Itsuki for what he has done, but that doesn’t mean his family was the same scum like him. If he killed those that are just and he does it without pay wouldn’t he divert from the ideal assassin he was aiming for. Still, now that he had already threatened the heir to the Harada Family, he needed to make sure that he can defend himself and his own family from any retaliation. Loki finally calmed down and spoke.

“No, never mind that, I misspoke. Just tell me what kind of Corporation is the Harada Corporation, and what kind of people are the members of the Harada family... Also, let’s not talk on the phone, how about we meet up somewhere?”

When Harold heard what Loki said he grew stiff. He didn’t want to meet this rather dangerous individual alone. Still, he was also scared of saying no to Loki. After some thought, Harold had reached a compromise in his mind. i????????????????α????.＆nbsp;c????????

“Umm, if it’s alright with you can you bring Luke along?”

Loki could pretty much guess why Harold had asked for Luke, which made him sigh. ‘As expected, using a kid for such jobs isn’t really a good idea, but I have no other informants in this world...’

“Alright you can bring Luke, but where would you like to meet up?”

Harold became silent for a few seconds, and after much deliberation on his part, he finally responded.

“You can come to my house, my parents aren’t here. You can meet up with Luke he knows where I live.”

...

After getting Luke who was practicing on how own, the two headed towards Harold’s house. It took them an hour to arrive in a nice-looking neighborhood where Harold’s family was living. When they arrived at Harold’s house, Loki was surprised. The Kid was living in a mansion, which was four times larger than his own house. Luke pressed on the doorbell, and out came Harold who led them inside the house.

The three of them headed towards Harold’s room, and upon entering the room, the first thing Loki thought was it was too dark. The room was dimly lit, and what illuminated it were the multiple monitors. Harold then flipped on the light switch.

“Here are the files on the Harada Corporation.”

Harold handed Loki piles of paper, while Loki was reading them, Harold spoke.

“Some of the information was rather easy to get. On the surface, the Harada Corporation is by the books. Harada Corporation deals with manufacturing and real estate. It were established forty years ago by its founder Harada Kenji. Supposedly he is a self-made man that came from nothing. Now, this is where it gets interesting. Harada Kenji was once a man that was part of a former gang that was relevant a few decades ago. That gang supposedly dealt with money laundering. It’s extremely hard to find any information about this, as Harada Kenji has erased almost traces of his involvement with that gang.”

“So he was part of a gang, but that’s in the past, maybe he has changed?” Luke chimed in.

“Well, that could be true, but there have been many rumors going around that he’s still involved with some gangs. He has been accused of bribery, selling drugs, human trafficking, and many more. Of course, there is no evidence to prove that he’s guilty.”

“So he’s scum as well, no wonder his son is like that. How about his other family members?”

“Supposedly Harada Kenji was an orphan and had no family, but after a bit of digging around, I found an old article of a couple with the same last names dying in an accident. This happened when Harada Kenji was just starting his new business. Supposedly those were his parents and he used the life insurance he got from his parents’ deaths as startup money. Now he only has his wife and child as his family.”

“What about his wife?”

“Kenji’s wife doesn’t have any good rumors surrounding her either there are many that claim that she’s going around kidnapping and using young men for sexual relief and once done she would kill them. The police had investigated her numerous times, but found no evidence to support the accusations.”

When Loki heard that each member of the Harada family were more than scum he grew angrier by the second. Such vicious people would never leave him and his family alone, but killing them wasn’t an option for Loki as he had his own set of rules, regarding that. Even if the reason is just he still needs to be paid to do the job.

“Is there a way to destroy that family without killing them?”

“You can destroy their reputation and business. If you can find the ledger that Harada Kenji has that proves his involvement with the local gangs, it would be easy to gain more material to destroy everything he had built up. I would have been able to get that info if he had put it in a digital device somewhere, but after looking around I believe that he uses a more analog way to safeguard that information. I’m guessing he hides that ledger in a safe or is keeping it in his person at all times. Well, if finding the ledger is difficult, you can also try to catch the wife in the act of kidnapping. There’s also the son who likes to flaunt his power, he could have r*ped, multiple women. The Harada family most likely paid off the victims or the more likely scenario killed them. Obvious all of this information I gather on the fly most of them are just rumors, but you know what they say where there’s smoke there’s fire. I can try to find more information on that, still, I doubt I’ll find anything relevant. So what are you going to do?”

“I’ll bring them down one by one, I’ll start with the son. I already have some evidence of him trying to kidnap my sister. I just need to gain some more proof, and I know the guy I need to talk to.” Loki spoke his eyes shining with killing intent.
