" Since that day, the copy has been passed down in my family from generation to generation, thus making us magic users and that's the more reason why this conversation should never get to the ear of a government official".She paused
"Why". Sally asked.
"Cause all magic users are seen as threats and are hunted down". Varian interjected while clenching his fists.
The group looked at him and Sally popped
"Uh.. How'd you know that ".
"I read it somewhere". He answered quietly
"He's right, that's why I'm being very brief in my explanation...
" You can trust us, we're not like that". Lucian reassured.
"Finally the book was passed down to my mother Veronica Verun, She believed she could find more pages of the book after all the tale said that the book split into various pieces, but sadly as she left she vanished and since that day I haven't seen her". In a more sorrowful tone, she continued
"She promised to come back on her birthday, but sadly that is today and she's no where to be found, that's where you guys come in, I need you to find her but of course it isn't for free, if you're able to find her, 5 billion is yours individually"
"You say what now, 5 billion" Taylia shouted shockingly.
"Yes I didn't stutter 5 billion individually ". Kate replied.
"Give us a minute". Varian said, he and his group went close to the door to discuss.
"5 BILLION, that money could change our lives, we could quit being mercenaries". Taylia said to the rest of her team.
"Let's have a vote". Varian said.
"is there really need for that I believe I speak for everyone if I say yes". Lucian looked at each member and they all nodded.
"Yes I want to see where this is going, it might even lead to some cool adventures" Everling exclaimed excitedly .
"I know I'm always against risky missions like this but this is different it's 5 billion, even if we have to go to the ends of the earth to find her, we will". Sally proclaimed.
"Yeah and besides i can see this leading us to some pretty cool weapons". Alouis added.
"Can't you talk about any other thing aside weapons ". Sally asked clearly annoyed.
"Talk about what, your short legs". Alouis sneered as he adjusted his glasses.
"WHAT , my legs are the average size of a normal leg".
"is that what you tell yourself".
The rest of the team walked back to their seats, afterall this was classic Alouis and Sally always bickering.
"What do you say". Kate asked as they sat down.
"We agree". Varian said and continued
"Do you have any clues as to where she might be".
"Get over to Ferad, and try to get into the party that's happening three weeks from now". Katherine brought out a map of Glazir.
"Also these three are going to follow you guys in order to keep me updated on the mission". ELX nodded.
We're currently in Aston in Luoza the capital of Xychozax, so going to Raen in Ferad would be a one day drive if you're going on a car". She paused and stares at them
"Do any of you know how to drive".
They immediately pushed Everling forward.
"Well, I do have a driver's licence so yeah I'm sure I know just how to drive".
"That's awesome" She hands a car key to Everling.
"This is my car key, it's in the underground parking lot please be careful with it, for this mission you'll be needing lots of things so get down to my Manor in Fean located in Ferad, there you'll see Laura, a maid of mine she give you a more detailed picture of what to do next ".
" Sure, we'll get going now..
"Wait". She interrupted Varian.
"Here's my contact info incase we need to speak ".
"Bryan, Lucy and Vincent, please follow them and render help in any way possible". The Three nodded
"I wish you all good luck". Floria finally spoke after keeping quiet for a long time.
ELX including the three bodyguards left.
In the parking lot,
They saw the car which was an SUV
"Wow, everyone get in". Everling exclaimed as everyone got in and she zoomed off.

Few minutes later
"Come on, say what's on your mind, you've been quiet for an awfully long amount of minutes ".
"No I'm just pitying them, they don't know they're in a run for their money ".
Laughter erupted from the other side of the room
"So true".
"Before I forget, update sister on the mission".
"Yes ma, let me be on my way".
