The person who had just spoken had a slightly gruff voice and Kiana stopped upon hearing it. Lucius turned to see who had just spoken and saw a tall and broad man clad in steel armor.

"Gellor? You\'re back?" Kiana asked.

"Yeah, I came back a couple of days ago. The last job took much longer than I had expected, even traveling was a hassle due to the war. We had to take longer routes to avoid the battle zones and the army checkpoints." The man named Gellor replied.

Lucius looked at the man and found him to be a bit familiar.

\'Wait, a minute… isn\'t he…\' Lucius thought.

"Are you the one who killed that Four Winged hawk two days ago?" Lucius questioned.

Kiana narrowed her eyes as she looked at Lucius.

"You saw him that night?" Kiana spoke.

"Yeah, him and a few others," Lucius replied.

"Yeah, that was me." Gellor confirmed before looking at Kiana and asking, "may I ask who this is?"

~Ahem~

Kiana immediately turned to a very formal stance before she spoke, "This is Young Lord Asher Inanis. The Heir of the Land of Etara!" Kiana introduced.

The man named Gellor was a bit surprised by this before he hurriedly reacted.

"Forgive me, my lord. I did not know." Gellor apologized.

"Oh, it\'s fine. No harm done." Lucius replied.

He did not care about minor things such as this. What he did care about though, was who this man exactly was and why did he know Kiana.

"Lord Asher this is Gellor, one of the mercenaries I know and was talking to you about. He once applied to work as a soldier but then chose a different path later on. I met him back then when he was giving the test under Master Frank." Kiana explained.

"Ah, I see. It\'s good to meet you, Gellor." Lucius spoke.

\'If he was under Master Frank too, then he should be a bit accomplished. And from what I saw that night. He definitely has some skills to back it up too.\' Lucius thought and then looked at the sword that hung from the side of Gellor.

\'Hmm… this is not the sword that he used back then, though. Was that really an artifact or was it a gift that this man has?\' Lucius wondered.

"This actually makes it easier for us now that Gellor is here." Kiana suddenly spoke.

"Easy? You mean we hire him?" Lucius asked.

"Yes. Gellor is an accomplished mercenary with a good record, who even I can vouch for. For a difficult job like the one we want he should be able to complete it with his team." Kiana replied.

Gellor was listening to the entire thing and was now getting interested in whatever Asher and Kiana were talking about.

"Hmm, since you vouch for him I don\'t have any concerns then." Lucius said.

"Umm, does the young lord want to commission a job from me and my team?" Gellor questioned.

"Yes, I do," Lucius answered.

"Alright, if you tell me what the job is, I can give you an estimate of the payment." Gellor spoke.

Just when Lucius was about to speak more, another person interrupted them by shouting.

"Hey, Gellor! The drinks and food are here, come on eat!" A woman shouted from one of the tables.

Kiana and Lucius\'s gaze went to the table as they looked at the woman. Kiana though had a sharp look in her eyes, which Gellor noticed. He had seen the same look many times before and knew that whenever it appeared, nothing good would come out of it. After all, even he had suffered from the fury of this woman in front of him.

~gulp~

"Please don\'t mind them. You can tell me." Gellor said before quickly snapping his neck back. "I\'ll come later, I got a job proposition here."

It was now that the woman and the rest of his teammates noticed Kiana and Lucius standing near him. They also noticed the guards and realized that whoever Gellor was speaking to it was definitely some noble.

"They\'re your team right?" Lucius spoke while looking at the table.

"Yes?…" Gellor replied with apprehension.

"Then let\'s just sit with them and talk further. If we are gonna discuss about the job, may as well involve them too." Lucius said in a calm tone.

~phew~

Gellor took a breath of relief and nodded his head. "Yes, that would be good. Please do join us."

Kiana relaxed her expression as well and went to the table along with Lucius. There were four people sitting at the table already which included two women and two men. Lucius recognized them to be the same people from that night.

A couple of chairs were pulled and everyone sat on the table. The guards that accompanied Lucius made a circle around the table, leaving enough berth in between to give them privacy.

Gellor introduced his teammates to Lucius and told them about his identity.

"Young Lord Asher, these are my teammates- Albus, Ariana, Barty, and Finch." Gellor introduced.

Albus and Barty were the two men, while Ariana and Finch were women. Lucius particularly paid attention to the woman named Finch as she was carrying the sword that Gellor had used to make the large red slash that killed the Four winged hawk.

"Umm… so what is it that the young lord wants us to do?" The woman named Ariana questioned. She was also the one who had interrupted Gellor before by shouting out for him.

"I would like to commission you all for a mission. I want you all to hunt Rock Bees and get me their Rune crystals. I want at least five of them." Lucius answered.

Gellor\'s gaze stiffened upon hearing the request and the other teammates of his had uneasy expressions too.

"Is there a problem?" Lucius questioned, noticing their expressions.

"Not exactly. It\'s just that while we can definitely do this job, we will just need a rather large amount of advanced payment." Gellor spoke.
