Noel and Anna were sitting in front of a middle-aged man. The man had a pale face and huge black bags under his eyes.

It seemed that he hadn't slept for a few days.

"It's been a while, Miss Anna Stargaze." The man made a small smile, greeting her. "I wonder if this man is the one you mentioned before?"

Anna nodded politely. "That's right. Sir Khalid, let me introduce him to you… He is Ia—"

"Please. Before you speak his name, I don't want someone who hides his identity."

"Mhm?" Anna frowned.

Khalid's face remained calm as he explained the reason. "You asked for my cooperation before. Yet, you came with a disguise. It looks so shady… I don't plan to cooperate with someone who can't meet me face-to-face. I apologize, but if you're not going to show your true face, hair, and eyes… I won't continue."

"You…" Anna clicked her tongue. Noel's identity was sensitive, but before she could complain, Noel waved his hand, stopping her. Anna instantly understood what he wanted to do. "You are going to reveal your identity?"

"It will be revealed sooner or later." Noel shook his head helplessly. "But if you don't mind, I want to know how you'd find out that I have changed those features…"

"As an alchemist, we're working on a characteristic of everything, including the effect on Spiritual Energy to them. So, I'm extremely sensitive to the flow of Spiritual Energy. From what I can see, there is an energy intertwining with the natural flow of your Spiritual Energy around those areas… So, I'm assuming that they have been disguised."

"I see." Noel nodded. He contemplated for a moment before his hand reached for the masquerade.

Anna widened her eyes, never expecting Noel to show his identity to this person.

The moment he separated the masquerade from his face, his hair began to turn black. His eyes were covered by his hands, but it was clear that the energy that interrupted the natural flow had gone, revealing his true eyes.

Khalid couldn't contain his smile. "Oohhhh…"
