That night was almost as insane as the one from half a month ago. No one even realized that it was the exact same rascal that was the real culprit in the center of the two events. That culprit was now in his carriage riding away from the Auction House with a painting in his and a girl leaning on his side. "Don't be too depressed, Karmina, the painting will find its way back one day." He said. "Thank you for your kindness, Alfonse. You have been my only support this evening." She said in a…-

~~~~~~~~~~ "This is rather bad." Hector Norman sat in the storehouse surrounded by his people as he heard the news from Madam Mikaela. "This is rather unfortunate. Leo here pulled one hell of an act on those Aristocrats, I almost thought you are one of them if not for the fact that you work for Ruth." Zal said as he drank from a flask. "As I said, we can still get it." Leon said, "Why aren't you taking this one into consideration?" "You serious?" Hector retorted, "The auction hall is a whole…

"Lord and Lady Vanderbilt, I bid you welcome. Lady De Sadé will receive you in the Garden." A man with a clean shaved face and neat grey hair received Lord Vanderbilt in front of his carriage with a bow. The young lord came down first then gave a hand to the lady who seemed to be of a rather grumpy nature compared to the easy smile that stretched widely on the face of the lord. Following them from the other side was their butler who pulled a stool from under his seat for the lady to step on. "The…

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, the Pride of Del Mar." As the presenter removed the silk of the large portrait and faced the direction of the attending audience, all she witnessed was the anticipation on their faces soon to be turned into a series of questioning puzzlements taking all forms of furrows and groans directed towards her. Puzzled as they are, the female presenter in her elegant and fashionable dress turned her body around to investigate the reason for her audience's reaction but…

~~~~~~~~~ Things were going well for a change, Leon started to make plans for everything from start to finish and it is going to be fun… or at least that's how his plans sound in head. It is still not solid yet and lacks some foundational elements but still, the fact that Zal agreed to the plan and even provided intel was something worth celebrating… or in Leon's case, doing extra training for the rest of the day. He has many objectives at the moment and if all went well, he will be able to…

"You two are impossible! If you have a location, we move out immediately." Said Eleanor who kept going back and forth across the room. "His condition seems fine. I can't just locate where he is. That's all." Said Erielle who tried to explain things to her. "I will not rest until we find him and get him away. This is not natural." Eleanor seemed to have lost bits of her reasoning now that they almost had a solid lead on him and it suddenly vanished. "Will ya quit it, BOTH OF YA?!" Yet the angriest was…

*Swoosh* *Swoosh* *Swoosh* "HAAA!" Vigorous slashes broke the air as the wooden blade hit the defenseless practice doll. And the practice doll was broken with the last strike. Speak of anger as the wielder of the wooden sword tossed it on the ground and walked across the empty training grounds in silent rage. He wasn't taking things too well these past ten days and he was never someone patient enough to wait for results. He walked to the nearby servant who held a basin of water for his master to…

Jessica started freaking out the moment she walked off the Mercenary Hall with Leon. That was her first time ever to see an Elf up close and she was completely charmed. Strange as it sounded, most humans hold prejudice against different races. Hell, against different colors even. Racism is a widespread social problem in this world in particular, especially thanks to the faith of the Holy Light which has a thing for human supremacy. However, people who are unaffiliated with faith or politics like Jessica…

"Let's see! We got the tools, the spares, the extras, the back-ups, the merch, the giveaw…" Leon started counting but Jessica hurriedly stopped him. "Alright. I'mma stop you here. You don't need all that… and you can't possibly take all that." She said. "What?" Leon almost felt baffled, "You don't know how much gear I needed to infiltrate the British Museum. I used to do a yearly run in that place. It is like a supermarket of artifacts and I build a scaffolding of ropes every time I go in. They…
