Half.. What?
After we walked for 15 minutes we arrived in one of the Beer Houses here in the Capital, not an ordinary Beer House. This is the front of the powerful guild that gives information in exchange for anything that can peak their interests.
"Good day, dear customers. What can I help you with?" said of the bartender while smiling. His looks are not bad. He has chinky eyes and a pointed nose with light pink shade lips. One of the things that I noticed is that almost all of the guys populations here are so dazzling and handsome.
" Can I get ESPE 248?" his smile widened and guided us to the back door of the Beer House. The child tugged my cloak.
"Young Miss. Can they really help us find my brother?" His lovely eyes are brimming with tears. I don't know what is the right word that I need to say to stop him from crying. I pat his head and brush his hair.
"They will"
"We are here dear customers. The one you are meeting is our Guild Master. Please, refrain from coming closer to him" he nods to the three more guys in the living room. One with blond hair and yellow eyes and the other are identical twins with dark brown hair and eyes.
"The child-" said the handsome bartender, or should I say one of the guild members.
"He's coming with me" he tilted his head and nodded his head. The blond haired guy is just watching us with a hawk like eyes and the other two are playing cards? Is that it? Well I don't have anything to do with them anyway.
"I wanna know everything about Halardi guy." he tilted his head while observing us. I didn't put down my cloak, in case of the people seeing my face.
"Aren't you rude Lady? You did not even put your cloak away and now you are demanding me to give you information about that fck up guy?" I raised my eyebrow even though he couldn't see my face. Is what I said rude? But that's how I usually talk other than to those that can peek my interest.
His voice is somewhat playful and cold. He is sitting there in the corner wearing... What is this? Long sleeves with open buttons and a black slack? Well, well, well. Coming from him.
"Before you say that I am rude why don't you look at the mirror first? You should be greeting us first. I am just treating you the way you treat us." The eyes are glinting with amusement. Is being a guild master makes you a bit crazy? I guess too much information can make you crazy.
He smiled at me and looked at the child beside me." Don't be cold, you are scaring the child" then he walks in our direction.
"Before I give you the information, what can you give me in exchange?" he is six steps away. Before I can say something, the child tugs my dress and asks to go out.
"Young Miss, I... Can I go out? I'm going to wait for you outside"
"Laru... Get the child here and accompany him. Give him anything he wants." I look back to him. He then smiled again. The door opens and one of the identical twins gets the child.
"This will be quick. Wait for me, okay?" he nods his head before he goes outside.
"Now now Lady. Do you mind taking your cloak away and talking about business?" I decided to put down the cloak in my head and look him in the eyes. His smile disappeared and he looked so stunned.
Is there something wrong? I knew it. I shouldn't have put my cloaks down. I was about to cover my head when he talked.
" Ah... Uhmm.. So what can the Lady give me in exchange for the information you want?
" How about the whereabouts of the stone mana? I know where you can find it. It has dozens, thousands of it. " he chuckled and walked again, this time to his desk.
"Oh.. That's one of hell 'a tempting offer. How can you prove that it is true?"
"How can you do business if you don't bet something?" he looked at me and sat down. I walk towards the sofa and sit down as well.
"You have a really sharp tongue Lady. How about I shut your mouth up?" he says playfully. I glared at him. Even though I can't recall my memories, I know for sure that it is rude to say that.
"Stop flirting with me. Well Mr. Guild Master you can just send someone in that place and you can see the evidence itself. There's no harm in doing so. After that, give me the information in one day after you confirm it."
His smiles widen. "Can I just ask for your name instead of Lady?" I tilted my head and heave a sigh.
"You're choosing to get my name instead of that information?"
"Why not? Your name is more valuable than that"
"Well then... My name is Kala" he slowly walks in my direction.
"Then I'll give you only half of the information you want" I stood up and now we are facing each other three steps away.
"I am Kala Amirah Achlys. Now, you're gonna give me the full information in three days time. I will come here again and I hope to hear a good answer soon" he will bring his face closer to me and chuckle. This guy is crazy. How can he be the guild master if he is this naughty and perverted?
"Oh.. Oh.. Your wish is my command, My Lady"
"By the way, my name is Cason Schmidt, I hope to have a good business with you"
