"I'm done Nola, come here"

Smiling, I waved at Nola in the distance and urged her to come to me.

"Um"

Nodding her little head, putting the phone away, Nola ran in my direction.

"Up"

Lifting her into my arms, I smiled and pointed towards the playground in the distance.

"Let's go play"

"Yes!"

Walking towards the playground, although I was smiling, that was merely a facade I put on since Nola was with me.

My mind was in a current state of turmoil.

After 'politely' conversing with the two individuals, I found out a few things.

First off, the long-haired guy's name was Simon Perk and his father was a relatively influential person inside of a bronze-graded guild. The guy next to him was called Greg Topaz and he was his childhood friend as well as bodyguard.

...The reason why they knew me was because the old Ren and they, used to attend the same middle school.

Fermin middle school.

One of the top middle schools in the northern district.

However, from what I've uncovered from my 'talk', the previous Ren Dover was a social outcast.

It wasn't like this before, but after a series of events, he became an outcast. This probably happened right after he got accepted in the lock.

Although I wasn't able to get a clear picture of what had happened since they weren't part of Ren's class, I was able to deduce that an important event had happened in Fermin middle school.

Which was enough of a start for me...I at least had a direction to focus on now.

"Bwader?"

As I was busy pondering over the old Ren's matters, feeling a light tug on my pants, I saw Nola's droopy eyes staring at my shoes.

"Are you tired already?"

"um"

Nodding her head, Nola extended her hands in my direction.

11:20 A.M.

"...it should be time anyways"

Checking the time, I picked Nola from the ground and left the park. It was about time I headed to the guild.

I wonder what's it like being in a guild.

...

"It should be this one"

Arriving in front of a large skyscraper that was about 200 meters in height, and had about 80 floors, I brought Nola inside of the building with me.

From what I had been told by my parents, the whole building was used as the base for their guild Galxicus.

Although they didn't own the building, they managed to rent it out for a reasonable monthly price.

Arriving in front of the elevators at the entrance of the building, I pressed the button and called for one. As I waited for the elevator to arrive, I took a quick glance at my surroundings.

Surrounded by glass, the interior of the bottom floor was brightly lit by the sun in the sky. White marble floor covered the entire pavement, and people moving to and fro inside of the building was a constant sight.

It looked extremely busy.

-Ding!

Entering the elevator and pressing on the 25th-floor button, the elevator doors closed and a slight pushing sensation appeared beneath my feet.
