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.470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMeoHvQXQP

“James.” A broken voice sounded in the background. “James please.”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBlMKUkUor

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.470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wAvd1uPJm
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.”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23xCPGeztv
“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!”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0fTjj74xN

“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?”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnpAFV2LdE

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 –“470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkUYhGSZfw
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfALKU8w0KP
“Ah ah .” James shook his head. “The ribbon is old news; I’ve long since found substitutes for it.”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGI0A4LjuL

His icy-blue eyes stared straight into hers “... The key to the Forbidden realm.”470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBRdlhJwVC
“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.470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKz2m2LYEz

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.470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon7sKXtpQE

Elizabeth sucked in her breath while the two men behind her fidgeted, apparently distressed. “James, think about this. We can fix this. Can we –“470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZMEanvzhp
“Elizabeth.” James didn’t look up, but he knew she was listening. 470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l54VIXZT9
