”Greetings Master Klio, we are looking for Lady Arrin She disappeared right after the forum I wonder if you would happen to knohere she could have gone, or who could have wanted to take her while on the way to her residence?” Asked a guard with politeness to the same old man in red robes who had invited Daniel to sit next to hiree of respect that the guards were showing towards this old man was justified by the fact that, while virtually all of theroup that was co-owned by the major clans of the spiritual world, and used as a for force for the Laboratory and est cities, this old man was the one who had personally created each and every one of theet angry by the sudden visit, and simply shook his head froreat discouards After a few moments of silence, the captain lowered his head, and said with a low tone, ”Would you mind if we took a look inside your residence?”

The red-clothed olda warht randchild, he said, ”I don't think that there is a need for that” His voice was raucous, and if not for his cultivation at the peak of the Godhood stage, the guards could haveto avoid a long and annoying procedure

The group of guards looked at one another with uncertainty, until finally, a voice resounded in their ears ”I am afraid that we have to insist, Researcher Klio” Said the uards He then added with a serious tone, ”We are controlling every residence with no exception”

Surprised by the appearance of the lasses, the red-robed oldtone, ”You know I could disassemble their bodies before they could even set foot into et back to work”

The lasses was not offended or threatened by these words ”Let me remind you, Researcher Klio Despite your contribution to the Laboratory, the city belongs to the major clans So, let me do my job, or I will be forced to show you that your presence here is only valuable as long as you don't interfere with the major clans' business Please step aside” He said with aa power identical to that of the old man

Unfortunately for the old researcher, the er than his own, despite hiest entity in his circle The lasses had been appointed as the keeper of the Laboratory, and his as law

Before the old lasses showed a polite smile, and said, ”We will be respectful of your research Deactivate your formations and allow us to walk in It will be just the six” As he reached this point, thewith the old roup of guards, and asked, ”Why are you only four? Where is your fifth?”

”Who the hell is there? I have asked not to be disturbed!” Shouted a er

In response to this question was nothing but silence A silence which lasted for a fewand fa sound ”daain before turning into an inco that became clearer and clearer the closer the resident walked to the door ”What the hell do you want?” Asked the owner of the voice, a scrawny man in his late forties and dressed in loose robes, to the single guard that stood on the other side of the door which he had angrily forced open

On this guard the ment of a pathway that connected one of the physical universes to the spiritual world soive to their worthy uard However, since he was new to the Laboratory, and he was unaware of as nornored it, and instead waited for this guard to state his business

After a few uard stepped confidently towards the door, and said, ”A researcher of the Soul Clan has disappeared I was ordered to inspect your residence Please disable your formation, and step aside”

Yaqi, whose soul now inhabited a new body, was taken aback by what he had heard He was an extremely old entity, and he had never heard of a disappearance within the Laboratory The nature of his job had always been to visit new universes, and train their residents into opening a path to the spiritual world, but while this request sounded suspicious, what the Laboratory's guards were allowed to do or not, was beyond his knowledge

Due to this, he took a step back, and said, ”Let me store away my research, and I will let you in” He said with the intention of couard's request

However, while collaborative, Yaqi's words did nothing but rile up the guard, who got closer to the door, and said with an authoritative tone, ”Disable your formations first I ait for you to store away your research afterwards”
