Ignoring his crimson eyes and deep red hair, someone could argue that Radia Mallarc looked like an unassuming man.
He had an average build, and an average look; okay enough to look at, but wouldn't make people take a double look. Which was rather ironic, seeing how his guild operated. The only striking part of him was the signature red hair and eyes of House Mallarc. If one were to look at him from afar or through the screen, they would have a hard time picturing him as the powerful man that he was.
Until one had to face him in the same room.
Sadeva was cursing himself for thinking that the Mallarc only had money in them. Well, yes, they had money in them, but he forgot where money could bring people. For example, to his front door.
A nice afternoon enjoying those new numbers in his account, thinking about the vacation he had planned--and his front door was opened.
