"I want food..."
I mumbled as soon as I opened my eyes and that's when I noticed, my voice was no longer hoarse and I felt like I was brimming with energy.
How...? I remember I was dying from starvation and I felt myself slowly dying after getting kicked by a man who later threw his piece of bread at me.
Then.... That woman came and said she would save me because of her master's orders.
"Where is this place... No, more importantly where is the woman who saved me? I want to thank her for saving my life."
I questioned as my eyes darted around the room I was in. It looked like what I imagined an office.
I was laying on a sofa and the room had one table and a chair. There were bundles of paper on the table and there was a clear glass window at the end of the room opposite the door.
Click!
The sound of the door opening soon filled my ears and the door opened revealing a woman in luxurious and extravagant clothes.
She was incredibly beautiful maybe the most gorgeous I've ever seen and I couldn't help but admire her looks and fashion.
Her eyes were golden, rich like her unfathomable aura. Not to mention her figure which I could only describe as godly.
She had short hair that only reached her neck and it was styled like that of a bob cut but it looked more stylish.
She was the definition of what you call a rich young lady that could attract thousands of men with a single glance.
To think a woman like her would help me really made me happy and grateful.
So I bowed my head immediately as she arrived, although her face was blurry the first time I saw her, I had no doubt she was the woman who saved me.
"Thank you, please accept my gratitude!" I said out loud and she smiled at me looking as if she was satisfied.
"As I've said before there is no need to thank me but my master who saved you because of his orders." She casually said as she moved her way to the table.
"But still, I wanted to thank you for saving my life. Also, if I can have the chance, please let me say my thanks to your master if that is possible." I said, my head was still lowered with a bow.
"Sure, that's why I'll offer you a proposal that will change your life. You can decline this if you want." She offered as she took the bundle of papers and it disappeared in thin air.
I was shocked but nonetheless I accepted her offer before she even told me what it was. "No matter what it is, I'll gladly accept it as thanks for saving my life!" I said and she let out a small laugh.
It wasn't that of a mocking one but amusement. She looked like she had found something nice.
"As I've said you can decline if you want to." She repeated her previous words before she continued, "So I'll offer you this...." She said with a smile.
"I want you to devote your very existence both body and mind as well as your very soul to the one I loved the most, my master."
Her words shocked me greatly but soon after I regained my senses happiness overflowed my emotions and I accepted without hesitation.
"I accept."
There was no need for another answer, to serve someone who was kind as her master that would order someone as insignificant as me to be saved, I would gladly give 'him' my everything.
Satisfyingly she smiled hearing me agree with no hesitation and she began to walk towards the door.
"Now that you've accepted my offer you will now be a part of my own secret organization called 'Placid Order."
"Now then, follow me back to my current office, this one is my old one and it looks shabby." She said so with a nostalgic face before leaving the room.
I followed her and I was met with a long unfamiliar hall. Still, I didn't stop and followed her closely less I get left behind.
After a while we arrived at her office. It was about four times or five times larger than the previous one.
Yet, it had a similar structure to the previous one and the placing looked similar. Just more luxurious looking.
And what I meant by four times or five times was there was a door for the bathroom and maybe her own personal room in the side.
"Sit there and I will tell you all that you need to do and the rules of this organization. Not to mention you will be the first person to join except for me."
I'm the first.... It makes me feel a little bit happy hearing that.
"There are currently four important rules, I will tell you the rest later if I add some more." She said and continued, "First of all and the most important one, "Do not bother our master with something unnecessary." This rule should be placed above all as he doesn't like it."
"Next is, "Do not cause trouble for our master because of something unnecessary." Just like the last one this is also important to uphold."
"The third one will be, "Do not tolerate those who bother our master because of something unnecessary." Shall you see someone bothering our master, make sure to make a move."
"And lastly, "Follow all of his orders without cause without doing something unnecessary." Now that I've told you all the four for now let's move on with who is our master." As she finished telling me all the rules she spoke with enthusiasm when she started speaking about our master.
"Our master's name is Siphyr Asmodeus and I will now take you to a place where our hideout is for you to see what he looks like in a statue." She said and she grabbed the air and motioned her hands as if she was opening something.
Suddenly a crack in the space appeared and it felt like I would die if I ever stepped in there.
However she motioned mo to come to her and a warm energy suddenly coated my body and she hopped into the crack along with me.
Then, the scenery changed and I was brought to an unfamiliar place. In front of me was a statue of a handsome young boy reading a book.
"Is this what the master looks like?" I asked and she replied, "Well, kind of..."
'I can't tell her my skills aren't enough to replicate his perfect face.' She thought and frowned at her lack of skills.
After that she began talking about Siphyr and told her all the great things about him.
I listened with enthusiasm as hearing about him filled me with curiosity and admiration.
Honestly, I was only really grateful and only admiration filled my heart at this point of time.
I didn't know that my feelings for him would only continue to grow as I learned more about him.
I've only realized it when he disappeared for a year without trace as I felt my heart ached as if someone was crushing my very existence.

Now back to the present, dating back a few hours before I left the headquarters to deliver the information to my master.
I was called to her office and I was informed with the most unexpected but joyful news I've ever heard.
I was told to deliver information about the Everdale family to our master!
So I hurried and gathered all the information about them in an hour. I felt excitement in my heart boiling every second that ticked.
I knew master was giving me this opportunity to meet our master even though she wanted to go herself.
I felt grateful to her for giving me this chance, after an hour and a half I successfully gathered everything needed and returned to her office.
"Thank you, leader for giving me this opportunity!" I bowed as I gave her my thanks and she waved off her hand and said, "Take this chance to see what our master looks like, that is if he's not wearing his disguise. After all, the only image you've seen of him is when he was young." She said and she thought about Maya's reaction.
Once again I bowed my head and tore the space in front of me excitedly. I have gotten stronger and was able to become a cultivator thanks to the leader.
Currently, my entire being was filled with anticipation and excitement.
Then, I hopped in the crack of space in front of me with an excited smile.
"I can't wait to meet you my beloved master! Ehehehe~"
