A man dressed entirely in black, his face uncovered, stood on a tree branch and thought, 'That boy has grown up so quickly. I wonder what he's wearing to perform like that.'
Having observed Liam for nearly 24 hours, this First Officer witnessed the boy fend off three groups of beasts and evade two outer disciples from other cities who crossed his path.
Liam was now hiding behind a small rock, watching from afar a creature he was interested in for its crystal.
As Liam readied himself for the quest, the First Officer paid no attention to the creature. He focused solely on the young man who had achieved five progresses within just three weeks.
'You'll be promoted to inner disciple in no time. At your current progress pace, it should happen in a few months... I'd better talk to the boss and prepare to let you join our group. Unfortunately, we won't be able to take advantage of your work as an outer disciple for long.'
