The place was crawling with security. Personal, maybe undercover police, specially since it was a Yakuza party. Though it seemed like a lot for just a regular dealing, Nhyssa was right probably a lot to do with politics, of which Li had no interest. Monsters didn't delve into the realms of politics. But that was truly a lie, if the Ascendancy was a god, and a god was technically a monster the Atharaim hunted, then they did get involved in politics. The most powerful man on the planet truly was the most powerful man on the planet. At least from the sense Li had from the man's usage of the power.
But that was for another time, another person. Li hunted little before while on a shoot. Mostly underground, things he could hide in the shadows. Now though he was a drift in a world where the Atharim might decide he was worth hunting down. But so far they'd not shown themselves to him. He was such a minor worry. They didn't know he was a god. Well they did, but they were choosing to ignore that. Li knew without a shadow of a doubt that they had their fingers in the data the Ascendancy had requested which meant they knew everything the consulates did.
But there was a party to enjoy and a beautiful women sharing food to admire. "Not the traditional. A small taste, I wouldn't want to deprive you of your sweets." He smiled playfully at the darkness in front of him. Flirting with it was probably more fun than he'd had in ages. He hoped the enigma remained for quite some time.
"The Yakuza spared no expense for whatever it is they are showering their people with. Shall we wander and see what other treasures they have to offer?" Li offered his elbow, though he didn't expect the chivalry to be accepted, it was gentlemanly to offer and she deserved to be treated like a Lady even if she doth protest.

“What you must do," said Monkey, "is lure the monster from its hiding place, but be certain it is a fight you can survive.”
