The man’s gaze was empty, and his heart was hollow. He stood in front of the wide empty desk, paper laying over the ground.670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5pLBG2Ydu

“James.” A broken voice sounded in the background. “James please.”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Wn1V8Qtg7

He turned around and saw a girl with messy blonde hair and red-rimmed eyes; she’d been crying. She stood in the far away doorframe, her hands trembling. Behind her stood two young men, fear in their eyes, but of course they would put their fears aside for her.670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSfaQig7JH
James scoffed, causing the three people to flinch. “Please? Hahaha! That’s funny. After all this time and everything you did to me, you think you can get what you want with a simple please.”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflVTxv2UCY
“You coward!” The taller of the two boys stepped forward. “What type of man keeps innocent people hostage! Dare you fight me one-on-one!”
“Jeremy, stop it!”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqm9cKP0wx

“I understand you’re trying to help, but now is not the time.” She pulled the man back and continued to stare at James. “What will it take for you to let them go?”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4MosxZ4QD

James smirked. “You already know what I want.”
Elizabeth pursed her lips. She contemplated for a few seconds before finally shouting ‘fine’. “I’ll give you the red ribbon of pursuit, so will you –“670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaJGCAhMBO
670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hh1j7ZDvU
“Ah ah .” James shook his head. “The ribbon is old news; I’ve long since found substitutes for it.”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGIEOdrudU

She didn’t understand. “Then what is it you want?”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TZD9vYCMp

His icy-blue eyes stared straight into hers “... The key to the Forbidden realm.”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2yIQ8gn4P
“You!” All three became startled by this proposition. Everyone knew of the forbidden realm. A place filled with extreme dangers and extreme rewards. Most people would never think of stepping foot in there for fear of dying. But if it was this man who went in, he would definitely succeed.670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OKpMGyX9G

“No!” Elizabeth clenched her fist. “I can give you anything else, but not that!”670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cp5KO5I7E

The man placed his gaze on the table, where there were weird characters and symbols on rune keys. In the center of the table was a button cover by a plastic box with a large warning label engraved on it. James carefully removed the box before gently caressing the button.670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwdl3AdUiu

Elizabeth sucked in her breath while the two men behind her fidgeted, apparently distressed. “James, think about this. We can fix this. Can we –“670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44jSRkKyrd
“Elizabeth.” James didn’t look up, but he knew she was listening. 670Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAV77G9E5S
