Clank!
With a rattling sound, a heavy wooden door swung open and a man wearing a butler dress walked into a dimly lit, grand looking study room bathed in the warm glow of vintage chandeliers.
As the man walked forward, his polished leather shoes glided across the plush, Persian rug that adorned the floor. The room exuded an air of sophistication, with mahogany bookshelves lining the walls, showcasing leather-bound books and antiques.
In the middle of the room, sat a woman who looks to be in her mid twenties. She had long silver hair that cascaded gracefully over the back of an antique armchair. A porcelain teacup, adorned with intricate floral patterns, was cradled in her hand. Rising tendrils of steam wafted from the cup, carrying the soothing aroma of chamomile tea that mingled with the faint scent of different herbs.
Her green eyes were fixed on the open book before her as she read it while sipping her tea from time to time.
As the man wearing the butler uniform saw the woman, a loud sigh escaped from his mouth.
"How long do I have to act as your butler?" the man said in a slightly irritated voice and his aura of an A+ rank hunter spill out for a moment making the bookshelves present in the room tremble a bit.
"Just a few more days," said Sera without taking her eyes off the book, "you lost the bet with me, so it is natural now you have to help me."
Tsk!
The man clicked his tongue in annoyance and sat down on a chair.
"The student you asked me to keep an eye on is here." the man said while pouring himself a cup of tea from the kettle.
Sera's green eyes flashed and she finally looked at the man.
The man had short black hair, purple eyes, and plump lips that looked as if they were swollen.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm "If he is here then just do what I told you before."
"I still think it is a waste to send so many of them against him. I have just seen him and he is just a B+ rank hunter. Do you really want to send so many of them to take care of him?" the man said, gulping down a whole cup of tea in one go.
"I not sending them to take care of him, if I wanted to take care of him, instead of them, I would have sent you," Sera said, putting down the teacup in her hand.
"Amara asked me to test them, and he's the right person to test the potential of these things. I am more or less certain about the power of other people, but for some reason, I can't gauze his power no matter how much information I try to collect about him."
"By sending them, I will be able to test the potential of these things, and at the same time I will know just how much that guy is hiding."
The man was still drinking the tea like water and already emptied more than half of the kettle.
He gulped down another cup of tea and looked at Sera," I think you are being too serious because he was able to escape from that stupid Layla. Even though he was hiding his rank at that time and was at B rank, I still can't believe she couldn't catch him despite being an A rank hunter."
Sera didn't show any emotion after hearing him and looked at him calmly.
"Do you seriously want to do this?" he asked after seeing Sera's calm look, "you know, I can just go there and easily catch him for you witho_"
"You don't have to do this." Sera interrupted him midway, "I am not here just for him. There are many people that I want to capture, so just do what I am saying."
The man wanted to say something but seeing Sera's firm look he clicked his tongue once again and nodded his head.
"By the way, why are you in your original appearance? What if someone else saw your real appearance?" the man suddenly asked looking at her curiously.
"Currently there is no one here so you don't need to worry about that," Sera said and once again picked up the book she was reading earlier.
"Just go ahead and do what I told you,"
The man stood up and started to walk away from the room.
"Wait" Just as the man was about to exit the room Sera suddenly stopped him.
The man turned around and looked at her with questioning eyes.
Sera looked inside her storage ring and took out a black orb which was ten centimetres in diameter.
She threw the orb towards the man who caught it. After catching the orb when he looked at it, he saw the orb was looking like an eye.
"You know what to do with it, right?" Sera asked him with a smile on her face.
"Can't you just come with me and see everything with your own eyes?" the man asked with his mouth twitching.
"If I still have to go there on my own then what is the point of bringing you here," Sera said and stopped looking at him.
The man took a deep breath to not curse out loud and put away the orb into his storage ring.
He once again turned around ready to leave, but just as he was about to exit the room
"Wait" Sera once again stopped him.
Black lines appeared on the man's forehead and he looked at her while gritting his teeth.
From his face, it was obvious that he wanted to beat the shit out of her.
"What now?" but the man could do nothing since he knew if he try to fight her, he will just get his ass kicked by her.
"Look at the fight from the distance and don't expose yourself" Sera ignored his irritated look and said in a serious voice.
Seeing the serious look on her face, the man nodded his head and finally left the room.
Sera looked at the closer door for a moment before shaking her head and focusing back on the book in her hands.
