Ning and Ely went around looking at the various places where they could build a home for themselves.

In the end, they decided upon a piece of land to the south of Daegu that was surrounded by a lake on two sides. It was a little further from the city than they would want, but they could always just have a bit more road leading up there.

Once deciding on where they were going to build their house, Ning needed to visit Director Sung.

He and Ely teleported to Seoul, arriving a little away from the Department of Dungeon Defense. Ely looked around the city gleefully while Ning went directly to meet the director.

"Do you want to stay out here or go in with me to the meeting?" he asked her. "It might not be very fun inside."

"Let's go inside. I want to see how it all is," she said.

"Sure, then let's go," Ning said and took her.

He arrived in front of the assistant for the director and told her he was there for the meeting. The girl, knowing who he was now after his last barge-in, quickly let the director know about it.

Ely walked with Ning, going into the room alongside him. The assistant wanted to stop her, but since she was with Ning, she didn't dare say anything. She didn't want to anger an Apostle after all.

Ning opened the door and entered, only to see that it wasn't just the director that was there.

"Young Ning, you are here. I've been waiting for you," the director said and stood up to greet him.

Ning nodded and looked at the other two that were in the room. "I didn't expect brother Lee and Sister Soo-Yun to be here as well," he said. "It's been a while."

"It has been a while indeed," Lee said.

"I didn't expect you to just disappear like that," Soo-Yun said.

Unlike Apostles Bak, Park, and Kim, both Lee and Soo-Yun were from the Seoul district, so they were able to come here to meet him.

Lee looked more respectful now than he was before his small mock battle with Ning. As for Soo-Yun, she didn't dare use her charming skills on him at all.

After Ning walked in, Ely walked in as well. "I hope you don't mind that I brought her over as well," he said. "My wife wanted to see what sort of things happen in these meetings."

The director was surprised, and so were the other two.

"Your wife?" the director asked. "I didn't realize you were married."

"Of course, you didn't," Ning said. "I never told you at all."

Lee stood up to greet her quickly. "Hello, I am Lee Kwon-Yu. Leader and Apostle of the Frost Empire guild," he introduced himself.

"Hello, I'm Elenora," Ely said. "I do not have any title such as yourself."

"I'm Ja Soo-Yun from the Silver Star guild. Pleased to meet you," Soo-Yun introduced herself simply.

"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you too," she said with a wide smile.

"Miss Elenora, Please sit," the director got out from behind his desk. "I'm Sung Han-Sum, director of the Dungeon Defense department. May I ask what your nationality is? You don't look Korean or Chinese."

"I was born in France," Ely said. "Although I'm not sure if I can say that I'm of that nationality right now."

"Ah, I see. You're in a similar situation as Ning then," he said. He let the two of them sit and got behind his desk to sit down.

"Wait, so are we going to talk confidential information in front of a civilian?" Lee asked with a curious look. "I don't mean any disrespect, miss Elenora."

"No, of course not," Ely said. "I just wanted to come here is all."

"It doesn't really matter though," Ning said. "I'm going to tell her everything in the end anyway. This just removes the trouble for me."

"Sigh, I suppose I will have to let this one slide then," the director said. There was no way he was going to argue with Ning on any matter that would make him see them unfavorably.

"So, what was it that you wanted to see me for?" Ning asked.

"Right, I've been trying to contact you for so long," he said. "We have received a request for help."

"For help?" Ning asked.

"I'm sure you know what has been happening in Germany right now, right?" he asked. "The German government has requested your help in getting rid of the SS-ranked dungeon that they have.

"They asked for me?" Ning asked with a surprised look on his face. "How did they even know about me in the first place?"

"Ahem, they… they were asking for help from anywhere they could, and we happened to let them know that you had destroyed one before. After that, they have been asking us to lend you over to them. Is that… a problem?" the director asked.

"It's… complicated," Ning said. "I'll think about it. And… there goes my privacy."

Ely looked surprised when she heard him speak that way. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"The vultures are back," he said, looking at the two Apostles, who didn't understand what was happening.

"Will you sit here for a while? I need to go talk with them for a bit," he said.

"Okay," Ely said worriedly, not understanding what was happening at all.

Ning stood up and walked towards Lee with massive strides, surprising and intimidating Lee into standing up and trying to back away. "Uhh.. Brother Ning, is something wrong?" he asked while cowering backward.

"Don't worry, I'm not trying to hurt you," Ning said. He grabbed onto his shoulder and his System started working.

Using the energy in Lee, Ning was able to find a connection directly to Lee's god. After finding him, he teleported away.

He arrived in a white space with almost nothing around him except for some bumps in on the floor. He sat on one of them and look ahead at the Constellation that sat down as well.

"So, you must be Noraxis."
