By the time Luke and his entourage returned to the suite, it was already evening. Yamih ordered food while everyone took a shower in their respective bathrooms and when they came out, the dining room table was full of all kinds of delicacies. Yamih also went to take a shower and when he returned, no one had eaten without him which touched him greatly. Just as everyone was about to eat, a warning stopped them dead in their tracks Grrrrrrr! Luke’s growl was so scary that everyone at the table shrank back as he alone ate his fill of the delicacies, only after he was full was everybody allowed to eat but there wasn't much food so fights broke out. Etiquette was thrown out the window as food was grabbed with clawed hands and stuffed into one's mouth. Plates and glasses shattered, food crumbs dropped to the floor and were licked clean. It was only after the food was finished did tranquillity return to the suite. Ding dong* The doorbell rang and Sasha went to get it. When she opened the door, the Hotel Manager was standing patiently outside with his butler uniform on. “Mr Rocks, good evening. What brings you here?” “Good evening, Sasha. I came here because your neighbours are complaining about the noise coming from here. They said something about dogs fighting in your suite, is that true?” Mr Rocks asked politely. “No, that's completely false. We all know that pets are not allowed here unless you're a Beast Tamer by Class or by Innate Skill, which none of us are, so how could we keep dogs in here?” Sasha replied. “Do you mind if I check? It will only take a minute or two.” “Not at all, please come in.” Sasha then invited the old man in. Mr Rocks entered the suite and everyone was in the living room watching tv. Mr Rocks recognised everyone except one person. Seeing that there was nothing in the kitchen, dining room and living room, Mr Rocks could only leave, afterall, he couldn't ask to enter the bedrooms because that would be an invasion of privacy. “Sorry for disturbing you everyone, have a nice evening.” he said before leaving but everyone's attention was glued to the tv. Shortly after he left, there was another doorbell ring. “Is Mr Rocks still not convinced that there's no dogs in here,” said Sasha as she went to get the door again but when she opened it, she instantly retreated as far as her legs could take her. Bang! She collided with the wall but it didn't crack, everyone's attention then moved from the tv to the person at the door. “Since the door is already open then I guess you're letting me inside,” said the person at the door and entered the suite. Every step taken was loud and heavy, almost forcing the gang to transform right there and then because of this mysterious person's presence and when he finally appeared before everything, what they saw wasn't a person but a walking calamity, an Earthly Calamity to be exact. “Good evening, I am here for Luke, am I in the correct place?” asked the muscular old man. “Who are you and what do you want with me?” Luke asked, all his hairs stood on ends. “So it's you. I'd like…” “Vikus, you dig up a diamond in my District then don't come to report, what exactly are you planning?” sounded a voice from outside. When the old man heard it, his imposing presence completely disappeared, making him look no different from an ordinary person. The person who then appeared behind the old man was middle aged with a goatee and a brush cut. He had a tattoo on his neck that seemed to extend to either his shoulder or neck but it was hidden by the navy blue suit he was wearing. The man was both handsome and full of charisma, making ignoring him very difficult. He didn't exude any overwhelming pressure or presence but still looked extraordinary. “Mayor Moloson, what do you mean what am I planning, I'm just here to recruit someone who applied for a spot in the Security Bureau.” “Hello everyone, sorry for barging in like this but if something that might affect District 89 appears then I hav
