Fantasy Assassin in a modern world

Harold had created an algorithm that would help him spot the right clients for Loki's job. After the falsities and the absurd requests were removed Harold would start reading the remaining requests. These requests came from all the different websites that were talking about Loki. Harold noticed a newly written request that caught his interest. 

'A mother that disappeared and was found by his son in a brothel. After meeting the mother did not recognize his son... The son's request is to kill, Catherine Walker one of the few remaining big bosses in the city.'

This was a big job as it was about one of the five remaining big bosses in the city. There were many people requesting the deaths of these people in the forums but none of them had any good reason or even a personal reason to have them killed which goes against Loki's rules. Yet now there was an actual request that might convince Loki to act. 

'Still, even though this mission does satisfy all of Loki's conditions, this might be a trap made by the Scorpion... Whatever, I'll just let Loki decide what to do.' 

Harold then sent all the relevant information to Loki, and after only a few seconds he got a reply. 

"I want to meet up with the client, also can you give me more information on Catherine Walker." Seeing the reply, Harold couldn't help but call Loki as he was a little worried. After Loki picked up the call Harold went straight to the point. 

"This might be a trap by the Scorpion, are you sure that you want to take it?" 

"...There really is a boy in trouble right now making this request, right?" 

"Yeah, I've checked it, there really was a missing person's case that later turned into a kidnapping case." 

"Then it doesn't matter if there is a trap, I was planning on killing the Scorpion anyway." 

"Alright then, as long as you're sure."

... 

Larry Fetcher couldn't believe his eyes as he received an email from an unknown sender. The message was regarding the request he wrote on one of the Fade forums. There was a message as well as a location pinned to the email. 

"Meet me at the old abandoned warehouse at 8:00 p.m." At the bottom of the message was the name of the urban legend Fade. 

Larry looked at the time and saw that there were about two hours before the appointed time. The location pointed on the map was a thirty-minute walk from his house. 

'Should I trust this message?...' Larry reread the message over and over again. He wasn't sure if this was real, a scam, or some sort of trap. Yet after hesitating for a bit more, Larry gathered his resolve. 

'It doesn't matter if it's a trap or not, I need to try everything I can.'

Larry then remembered his mother's blank reaction as she tried to seduce him. It was obvious that those b*stards did something to his mother. Just thinking about it made his blood boil in rage. 

...

Loki was waiting on the roof of the abandoned warehouse. He was looking through the information Harold got regarding Catherine Walker. There was nothing much known about her childhood except that she was an orphan. 

The next bit of information was from when she was a teenager. She used to be the most famous prostitute in the city, as her beauty and charisma were like no other, and no man could resist her charms. She had many admirers and a lot of them had wanted her for themselves. In the end, it was one of the big bosses of the underworld at the time that took her hand in marriage. 

The big boss owned all the brothels in the city and was also dealing with human trafficking. Not only was he an underworld boss but he was also a powerful martial artist. Yet for some reason a year after their marriage the underworld boss that controlled such a powerful group died because of a sudden heart attack. Many had speculated that his wife had killed him somehow but even now there was no evidence to support this claim. 

Still, Catherine Walker who inherited his husband's empire was able to bring it to new heights. The moment she came into power those loyal to her husband that believe she killed him were quickly dealt with. She then found new officers that were loyal only to her. The other underworld bosses thought that since her husband died it would be easy to steal her weakened group but that was a mistake. All the enemies that appeared before her would disappear. It didn't take long for her influence in the underworld to take root and quickly grow, expanding her empire. She was one of the few underworld bosses that was a woman, and she was one of the more successful ones. 

Now everyone in the underworld knew of the deadly succubus that would use any means necessary to gain more power.

Even after Fade's continuous killing of underworld bosses, she was one of the few that didn't back down in fear. As he continued reading her information Loki couldn't help but sigh. 

'This type who yearns for power more than anything would never let it go even under the threat of death. Still, at the beginning of her reign based on the things Harold found, she was trying to stop the human trafficking in the city. Yet for some reason after a while not only was she not able to stop human trafficking in the city but she contributed to it even more. I wonder what kinds of things had she gone through that she gave up on her ideals... Well, it doesn't matter she had made her choice.' 

Loki heard footsteps and saw the young man he was supposed to meet approach the abandoned warehouse. Loki gathered mana and used a tiny bit of the fire elementals to burn the pieces of paper that had written information about Catherine Walker. As the ashes scattered into the wind Loki sighed. 

'It's time to get work.'
