The man’s gaze was empty, and his heart was hollow. He stood in front of the wide empty desk, paper laying over the ground.650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBVd0eEnAT

“James.” A broken voice sounded in the background. “James please.”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ2iiiDP74

He turned around and saw a girl with messy blonde hair and red-rimmed eyes; she’d been crying. She stood in the far away doorframe, her hands trembling. Behind her stood two young men, fear in their eyes, but of course they would put their fears aside for her.650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlqawDbnwX
James scoffed, causing the three people to flinch. “Please? Hahaha! That’s funny. After all this time and everything you did to me, you think you can get what you want with a simple please.”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XVo6M3Rn1
“You coward!” The taller of the two boys stepped forward. “What type of man keeps innocent people hostage! Dare you fight me one-on-one!”
“Jeremy, stop it!”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYydchuaDUE

“I understand you’re trying to help, but now is not the time.” She pulled the man back and continued to stare at James. “What will it take for you to let them go?”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKNCepHK8q

James smirked. “You already know what I want.”
Elizabeth pursed her lips. She contemplated for a few seconds before finally shouting ‘fine’. “I’ll give you the red ribbon of pursuit, so will you –“650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHSHDHoQsV
650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJFAkDRfnF
“Ah ah .” James shook his head. “The ribbon is old news; I’ve long since found substitutes for it.”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e9I7Qozx5

She didn’t understand. “Then what is it you want?”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBE80edM6r

His icy-blue eyes stared straight into hers “... The key to the Forbidden realm.”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TQmbgH4ly
“You!” All three became startled by this proposition. Everyone knew of the forbidden realm. A place filled with extreme dangers and extreme rewards. Most people would never think of stepping foot in there for fear of dying. But if it was this man who went in, he would definitely succeed.650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeQQhKbaEo

“No!” Elizabeth clenched her fist. “I can give you anything else, but not that!”650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZoOLOETsm

The man placed his gaze on the table, where there were weird characters and symbols on rune keys. In the center of the table was a button cover by a plastic box with a large warning label engraved on it. James carefully removed the box before gently caressing the button.650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXIz2zLXqD

Elizabeth sucked in her breath while the two men behind her fidgeted, apparently distressed. “James, think about this. We can fix this. Can we –“650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd92762bTDf
“Elizabeth.” James didn’t look up, but he knew she was listening. 650Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqrg0DRYyy
