'Graham' Waiting outside the door is a middle age man with neatly trimmed grey beard. He is around five feet seven and his body is lean and there is no trace of any muscle on his body.

He is wearing his grey robe today.

His blonde hair is neatly tied on the back, reaching just below his neck. He wears a glass that look like an antique created during the Victorian era.

Eric frowned a bit. Graham would not come here unless he has something important to do. After all, Graham prefers to stay in his lab rather than going to meetings or participate in the program of the organization.

Graham also look at Eric and said

'It has been a long time

Eric chuckles and simply said

'I am always here. It is you that always get cooped up in your lab. It is not healthy. You should go out and meet people' Graham only scoffed at this.

'Uninteresting people. They are all sorts of uninteresting people in this world. If I have to meet every single one of them, it would only waste my time'

'Your disdain of humanity is showing' Eric said

'Most people are idiots' Graham said. Eric retorted and said

'And you are the smartest?'

'I know that I am not and that is why I seek knowledge. But outside…. they don't know that they are not and think that they smart'

Eric only smiles and said

'Seeing the world and the people living in it, the lifeforms in it might be the thing you need. It is without a doubt among our colleague you are the smartest. But you lack-'

Before Eric could finish his word, Graham simply cut him off and said

'Is it humanity again? I lack humanity?'

Eric only nodded.

Graham had something more to say but then he thought he wasted enough time. He would not try to defend himself. After all, it is not like he cares that much what people think of him

But Eric sometimes makes him feel competitive and causes him to get worked up. He shakes his head and then he brought something out from his sleeve.

It is an envelope.

Then he simply said

'Eric, give this to the Grand Researcher' Eric saw the envelop and he raised his eyebrows.

'Why are you so…. tense?' Eric ask at Graham. Graham sighed and said

'Someone had given me this envelope. And that someone is not a person that the Order of Thinkers could handle'

Hearing this, there is alarm bells ringing in Eric heart. Unlike the other organization, their high ranking members is quite loose in that they make alliance and connection with people they want to.

Regardless of the opposition from the other researchers

Most of the other organization however had a banned list like Pandemonium officials are not allowed to contact the Dark Syndicate, the Crime Alliance and so on and so forth

But for the people of the Order of Thinkers, those high level researchers could not be constrained by such thing.

Knowing this, they don't even care to constrain. After all, most of the high level researchers need resources.

And it is not like the Order of Thinkers could supply all of the researchers with ample amount of resources. So there is a weird system in the order of Thinkers

To some research that is deemed hard to materialize, the funding would be cut or even scrapped off by the budget department.

But if the researchers still wanted to research such thing, they have to use their own resources. There is no restriction to this

Graham is one of the few researchers in the Order of Thinkers that have a big pocket, a ton of connection in the crime world, lots of researchers contact in the great powers, and countless channel of resources.

He is also studying may what would have been called fringe science if this is before the Fall.

Because most of his research is funded by him privately, the order of thinkers mostly does not know what he researched on and could not interfere in the direction of his research

But every once in a while Graham would share some of his technology with the Order of Thinkers and as such he is one of the high ranking members of the Order of Thinkers.

It is because of this liberty that many researchers join the Order of Thinkers. But it is also because of this, that many could say that not all of the researchers here has a clean reputation.

Eric hearing that this come from someone that the organization could not handle of course he would feel wary.

Who knows what kind of people that Graham is in contact with.

'Who?' Erik ask
