Max froze when he felt the hand on his shoulder, and his heart skipped a beat.

"How long are you going to make me wait, kid? I have a lot of other things to do."
Alton's voice sounded, causing him to let out a sigh and relax, but he couldn't help but say as he turned around, "You scared the shit out of me."
Alton's lips curled up in a small, teasing smile.
"Don't be so uptight. There are countless people out there who can sneak up on you without you realizing it. That kid over here, he can also do it if he tries really hard." He said, pointing at Kriss, who just came out of the hall.
Max glanced at Kriss, not too surprised. But he knew if he actively used his bloodline sense, let alone Kriss, even he would have a hard time sneaking up on him.
However, his heart skipped a beat when he saw the knowing smile in his eyes.
