Synopsis: (Or the guidebook on how to seduce a certain mafia boss).

Act

Zero

In the underworld where the Mafia is said to reign supreme, rumours of a certain jack-of-all-trades had reached the ears of the Strongest Hitman of the World. It was said that they often lurked in seedy bars and if you were lucky enough to find them, you could ask them to do any job that was within their wide and various skill set. However, there were instances that they would reject the job offer if they did not find it to their fancy, which was more often than none.

(The Strongest Hitman thought this person to be rather picky based from all the rumours but had an inkling that they were the person for the job he had in mind.

He wasn't wrong.)

"So you're the famous jack-of-all-trades I've been hearing about." The Strongest Hitman said amusedly, a grin etched on his face. He took a seat just a feet away from the said person who was currently nursing a drink. "You're a rather hard fellow to find, signorina."

The woman paused, the rim of the glass touching her lips but with no alcohol passing through her mouth. She took a brief glance at him, her vivid purple eyes momentarily stunning him and strongly reminding him of violet spinels, but quickly looked forward while finishing her drink. Upon emptying her glass, she set it down on the counter with a soft tap.

"Congratulations on finding me, Signore Reborn." She said nonchalantly while reaching for the bottle on her right, her calm voice and casual actions betraying nothing of her inner thoughts. He watched her messy black hair with green highlights (which he likened to a crow's nest) bob up and down as she leaned back and took a swig of her drink.

She later wiped off the liquid that spilled past her lips with the back of her hand and then rested the nearly empty bottle on her lap. While still refusing to look at the hitman, she stared at the bottle in her hand and started tracing imaginary shapes on it. "What can I do for you then?" She asked.

Reborn took out a small folder hidden in his suit and then slid it on the counter towards her. She caught it easily and then placed the bottle back on the counter, her attention now on the mystery file.

"I want you to seduce the target in the picture." He said once she removed the picture from the folder.

She gasped which pleased Reborn as he had finally elicited a reaction from the normally apathetic woman. "Dio mio!" She exclaimed. "Why the hell is it...him?!"

He tapped his fingers on the counter as he leaned back slightly on his stool. "The reason is quite simple really, he's been sad lately and I decided it's time he finally gets laid." He answered with a devilish smirk.

"..."

"Well?"

"Isn't this man your boss, signore?" She asked, trying to make him see reason with his batsh*t crazy offer.

He hummed as he sat upright. Slightly tilting his fedora downwards as he did so; he looked to be pondering on what she had said but in fact, he was not. "Hm~ Boss or not, I will always be his tutor first, signorina."

Awed by his insanity, she decided to...not agree to his job offer and proceeded to run away.

(Believe her, she tried but just utterly failed.

Thus making the Greatest Hitman of the World the first person to ever successfully force her to do a job she had initially rejected.)
