Shaun screamed as Taf dragged him across the gritty rocks in pain.

" This is puzzling, I thought you would be championing your creation, I take it this is not your strong suit, Not much of a salesperson are you?"

He then lifted him up throwing him in a muddy puddle. Looking at Shaun's face you would think he had a run-in with a grater he owned money. The left side was bloody with torn and unhealthy looking skin.

" I think I will pass, I would rather my floors be devoid of blood, thank you very much."

Taf wore a pleasant smile as though he had just refused an offer for a slice of cake.

" You fucking psychopath, this is not the end. You will get what's coming to you..."

Shaun blew up in rage as his face burnt from the pain. He dared not touch it as even the wind's gentle touch was no different from cuts from a razor blade at the moment.

" Now now, that's not the way to talk to a prospective future client. Oh, and by the way, I hope it doesn't end here indeed.

Wouldn't it be a waste to have these psychopathic tendencies and not use them? Remember to give that message to those brothers of yours. Tell them Sir Mouse awaits..."

No more attention was paid to Shaun or his group as both May and Taf turnt their backs continuing on their journey.

" He keeps referring to a damn Mouse, Who the hell is Sir...?"

Shaun thought before looking on the back of Taf where he saw embroidered in bold letters, Sir Mouse.

????????????????????????????????????????

While walking more and more persons could be seen in grey. Staying true to form they distanced themselves from the two as they walked...

" Damn this is taking forever, at this rate we will never find them. How about we look for them some other time May? I got it, right after we have completed the mission.."

Seemingly bored by the whole ordeal and not too keen on the visit Taf then uttered..

" Come on Taf they are the closest thing to home right now. Aren't you worried about how they have adjusted? After seeing these conditions there is a need for us to ensure they have settled in a bit...

May then gave him a smile to which he could just sigh before replying...

" Fine, you always make it hard for me to say no, don't you? You should teach me some time..."

He grinned as he once more added some pep to his steps..

" Teach sir, can't you see it's an innate gift, you have to be born with it..."

She playfully flashed her silver hair as she teased while smirking, to which Taf could only laugh in response...

Soon they saw a building that was quite contrary to its surrounding, its structure seemed solid and was made of bricks.

Though not grand by any stretch of the imagination, compared to what surrounded it, it was a palace fit for kings and queens. On the front, there was a sign " Lower rank housing, missions, and services".

The door was closed as if no one was there, which they found odd seeing that the sun was still somewhat out.

Knock! Knock!

May sought for clues to their query through knocking the door...

" Come in.."

An old voice uttered. Hearing his words May then attempted to open the door, however, it seemingly rubbed on the ground causing a scraping sound...

" Bloody hell! How many times do I have to say it? Lift the bloody door when opening, it is a damn simple thing to learn. Are you all damn daft?"

The grumpy old voice berated May's actions in seeming totally annoyance. However, when he saw the two he quickly caught his tongue before the next words were uttered.

When they finally saw the owner of the voice, he was an old man with hair of only grey. His clothing too was grey, there he nervously sat in a rocking chair as his foot that was perched on a desk made of oak quickly adjusted.

" Dare gifted seniors this old junior apologizes. You see this old man suffers from a slight case of schizophrenia. The mind tends to deteriorate further with age, not to mention my slight condition..."

Cough! cough!

He started to violently cough...

" Thought you had schizophrenia, why are you describing the symptoms of dementia and acting out the flu.."

Taf uttered seemingly unphased by the old man's actions....

" Oooh yeah, I have those too. Young senior, what can I say this old man is plagued with illness.."

The Old man then once more started to cough...

" Listen, gramps, I am not going to give you a hard time over a simple misunderstanding. I am just here for some information.."

How could Taf not see through this old man's seeming facade...

" Oooh wearing the colors of purple and black yet not as stuck up. Isn't this a sight for sore eyes? Did you steal that attire I wonder?"

The old man laughed at Taf's response which only showcased his missing teeth...

" I'm looking for two recruits enrolled last year. They are Lisa Paldon and I can't quite recall the youth's last name but his first is Damian.."

The old man's comment was then totally ignored by Taf as he went on with it...

" Which recruits in these parts could be so fortunate. This is a quite easy task, just give me a minute..."

Soon an old dusty book was summoned in his grasp which apparently had stood the test of time by the way its edges were crumpled...

" There they are.., Rita carry these two to fetch the recruits they seek.."

At the summons of the old man a young girl with glasses also dressed in grey could be seen.

If they assessed her they would realize her qi level was at the 5th qi condensation. She wore a smile as she greeted the two, then putting away a book that she apparently was reading...

" As you wish master..."

She was then handed a parchment before heading to the door...

" Please follow me..."

She then had her hand held out showing the exit while keeping the door ajar to which both May and Taf followed. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Seeing the door closed behind the three a chuckle could be heard from the old man, before he once more closed his eyes and placed his foot on the oak desk, then reclining in his rocking chair...
