Chapter 2113 - Mission II (1/2)

Five minutes after I came, the door opened, and a beautiful woman in a purple dress walked in. She looked like she was going for a picnic rather than the very dangerous mission.
I am familiar with this woman, she is quite famous and has the same title as a champion. She was also the host of the championship; I had spoken to her a few times but did not know her well.
”Lord Whitman, when you informed me about a talented runesmith joining us for a mission, I did not expect it would be a Grandmaster of runes Micheal Zaar himself,” She said as she gave me her dainty hand to shake.
”Lady Marla, I am not a Grandmaster of runes,” I said as I shook her hand. She is Marla Clyde, the previous winner of the world championship before me and one of the youngest people with a high chance to reach the Grandmaster class.
”It is a given seeing your Inheritance and not that I am wrong with calling you a Grandmaster,” she said and looked at me mysteriously.
It seemed like she knows me getting a title which is a little surprising seeing it is only informed to the Grandmaster but also not surprising seeing the Lord of Glass had taken her under his wings, and that makes her privy to certain things even if she does not have required level to know those things.
”Still, I would prefer if you would call me Micheal, Lady Marla,” I said, ”I will call you Micheal if you call drop lady from my name,” She said as she sat beside me, to that I nodded.
She and that old women share the name, but I could never imagine calling that women anything besides Lady Marla, no matter how powerful I became. I still feel a little scared whenever I think about the old woman.

Not even a minute had passed since Marla had come to the room when the door opened again, and a man walked inside.
The man was strange; he was clad in blacklight armor, which is a powerful artifact; this artifact gave off a quite strange feeling to me. The man is also wearing a black ceramic mask devoid of designs.
Looking at him, one could not tell whether this man, whether he is young or old or even his ethnicity seeing every part of him completely covered by the suit and the mask. The only thing I could tell about him is he is on the same level as Marla.
As he came inside, he gave an old fashion bow to Lord Whitman and nodded at us. ”Marla, Micheal meet thirty-three,” Lord Whitman introduced us to the strange man whose name 'thirty-three' is clearly a code name.
He likely belongs to some hidden legion; there are some hidden forces of a pyramid that are even unknown to most Grandmasters.
