Arthur didn't play with her anymore as he seriously said:
"This academy did the same as ours, sent a bunch of their disciples to the world as a test."
"A test? Then that master is…" she paused while her eyes shone brightly, "wait a minute, if you know such a secret info, does that mean you already encountered one of them?" she said.
"I can't deny that," he simply replied, "and I'm on the run to hunt them down," he added.
"You know their locations?!!" she was surprised more than before.
"I know the general layout of them; two disciples for each big, medium, and small clan," he explained, "but the most important ones are in the big clans."
"And?"
"And what?"
"Whom did you kidnap, dirty disciple of mine? Surely it's a she, right?" she laughed like hearing a joke that amused her.
"Let's… drop this topic, shall we?" he smiled helplessly while her laugh went to another level.
"It's a girl then, playboy, hehehe."
