Xio was dazed for about ten seconds before remembering the need to reply. She looked at the golden-masked man and nodded.
"Alright, I'll take note of the people Viscount Stratford interacts with."
The golden-masked man seemed to sense her dazed state as he said, "There's another mission. The Church of Evernight's Red Gloves are investigating something related to the Numinous Episcopate. If you have any relevant information on that, immediately inform me."
Xio tersely responded, unable to extricate herself from her emotions.
The golden-masked man fell silent for a few seconds and asked after some deliberation, "Are you interested in directly joining MI9?
"You can continue maintaining your present identity, being active in East Borough."
Xio was taken aback for two seconds as her mouth turned agape. She was momentarily unable to make a decision.
