The dark cloak hid his face, and as a couple of kids ran past him, he pulled on the hood to hide his face further. As he walked in front of the dark alley, he stepped inside it. His footsteps created no noise.
Inside the alley was seated a sloppy looking man with long messy hair, and a stubbles could be seen all across his face. A cigarette giving off icy cold air was inside his mouth.
Hiding his face by holding the cloak further, the cloaked man asked, "What do you need?"
Taking out the cigarette off his mouth, the man let out a whiff of cigarette before vocalising, "They need more members for the experiments. Everything is almost finalized and needs few final test subjects. A pure-blood would do well."
"I'll do that. Speed up with the progress," The cloaked man voiced out.
"The higher-ups are trying their best. Breaking up the barrier across Minhyun's mansion is too difficult; Your blood might be needed," The man vocalised.
The cloaked man nodded and said, "I'll do that. However, you can not let anyone know about this absolutely or else I will get rid of you."
"As long as you keep paying me enough," The sloppy looking man stated.
Walking over to the cloaked man, he took out a small gla.s.s bottle. Inside the gla.s.s bottle were ten pills, and extending his hand, the cloaked man took the pills from the other man.
"This is only how much they could produce at this moment. One pill daily is enough to weaken a member within ten to eleven days. They are still trying to create a stronger dosage and more in number. Those will be delivered soon," He vocalised.
The cloaked man nodded.
Inside a golden and blue coloured room, a golden cloaked man was seated in front of the table as he held his head. Creases formed on his forehead, mirroring the sharp pain went through his forehead.
The pink haired girl, Minnie— who sat opposite to him— had worry present in her eyes as she asked, "Master, is it another one of your vision?"
In pain, the man nodded. Seeing that, Minnie immediately searched for clean paper among the pile of doc.u.ments, and when she found one, she took one of the pen.
Placing the pen in front of the paper, Minnie waited for her Master to begin. After letting out a groan of pain, her Master closed his eyes tightly, trying to envision everything properly.
"A man," Her Master started, "A dark cloak covering his face. A death of one of the Leaders. A sudden death. Screams from people nearby, and calamity spreading. A smirk on dark cloaked man's face. He said, 'Finally.'"
After writing down the contents, Minnie stared at her Master with widened eyes. Her Master's vision's might become true if actions were not taken against it. However, with such less information, barely anything can be done.
"What do you we do now, Master? This is serious," Minnie voiced out.
Opening his eyes, Minnie's master said, "A sword driven through Minhyun's heart by someone."
Hearing those words from her Master, Minnie's hands trembled, and the pen in his hand almost fell down. The future way worse than Minnie had originally imagined it to be.
"W-Who is that someone, Master?" Minnie asked.
Her Master shook his head. A tensed expression sat on his face as he let out a sigh. He then voiced out, "I have no idea. The visions clearly did not show who that person was."
Hearing that, Minnie's eyes widened, and she questioned, "What do we do now, Master?"
Minnie continued, "This is absolutely bad. The Red Clan wouldn't be able to handle such a huge attack again."
Her Master answered, "This is not a new attack. It is the remaining half of the previous one, Minnie. So far, even I am confused on what to do. However, we need to take actions fast, very fast. There is no time in our hand."
Minnie nodded and said, "I'll immediately let Soohyun know about it. This might motivate her."
"No, don't. At least not for now or else Minhyun might find out. Knowing the future is not always good; Remember that, Minnie," Her Master vocalised, "We need to find out about that dark cloaked man for now. I have a feeling that he is among us, hiding himself efficiently."
Minnie nodded and said, "I'll do as you say then, Master."
Sitting at the breakfast table, Soohyun bit into her toast whilst half of her eyes being closed. Her body was completely out of energy, and she desperately wanted to sleep at this moment.
However, according to Minhyun's words, there was no time for her to sleep after breakfast as she needed to train on defense and attack skills. Soohyun bit on the toast slowly, so that it would take an eternity to finish and therefore, would not have to train any longer.
"Moon Jiwoo, you only have ten more minutes to finish your breakfast. I don't care whether or not you're hungry during your training," Minhyun vocalised.
Hw.a.n.g Yejoon gave her a gaze filled with sadness and voiced out, "Aigoo! My dear Sister-in-law is so pitiful at the moment. It's not a pleasant sight to see such a beauty being sad."
Raising her line of sight, Soohyun sighed and commented, "Brother-in-law, only if your Brother was sweeter, your Sister-in-law wouldn't be this sad. Even I pity myself."
After saying that, Soohyun glanced at the clock, and seeing that only nine minutes were left out of that ten minute, Soohyun's eyes widened. Taking a huge bite out of the toast, Soohyun began to eat az fast as possible.
Lee Soohyun needed to have as much as energy that was possible before starting her energy, and before that, she needed to fill her stomach completely.
After Soohyun had finished that toast, she hurriedly drank down the gla.s.s of water. From the plate in front of her, she took one more toast and began eating it. Her appet.i.te increased by tenfolds.
Seven minutes had pa.s.sed. As Han Minhyun elegantly ate his food, Junghyun's and Yejoon's eyes were upon Soohyun and her eating habits.
"Are you a monster?" Kim Junghyun asked.
Taking the gla.s.s of water, Soohyun drank it, and without looking at Junghyun, Soohyun vocalised, "No time to talk, Oppa. I have to finish all this."
"Monster Lady, hope you choke on your food," Junghyun commented— not liking how she had brushed him off.
Hw.a.n.g Yejoon chuckled and said, "Junghyun-ah, that's not a nice thing to say to a beautiful lady."
