An older man dressed in white robes sat behind a table with several books and sheets of paper. The room looked like the typical study a True Mage would have, filled with books and plenty of arcane trinkets.
Right now, the older man was waiting for his client.
This one was going to be a big one.
Yesterday, the Mage had been contacted by a Peak True Mage with an offer.
Someone needed his expertise, but in exchange, he would need to sign a confidentiality contract and undergo another Mind Read.
Something like that was insane, but the Peak True Mage assured him that the payment he would receive would be enough until the Mage either died or reached the High Mage Realm.
The reward was too alluring. So, the Mage agreed.
And, right now, he was about to meet this mysterious client.
A couple of minutes passed.
Eventually, someone knocked on his door.
"Come in," the Mage said with calmness in his voice.
