The Author's POV

Chapter 694

Knock―! Knock―!

"Come in."

After hearing a knock on the door, Kevin turned his head to look up as Ren entered the study.

The moment that Kevin laid eyes on Ren, a peculiar expression emerged on his face.

Ignoring the look that Kevin was giving him, with his eyes curiously wandering around the room, Ren sat on one of the sofas and crossed his legs.

"Making yourself feel at home?"

"...It's a nice place "

Ren replied, his eyes still wandering around the room

Unable to remain silent, Kevin opened his mouth to speak. How could he not when Ren entered the room with an enormous black eye?

"...What happened to your e―"

"Don't speak about it."

Ren cut him off, his bottom lip twitching.

"I fell down the stairs."

"Oh."

Kevin nodded, pretending to fall for his bullshit.

'As if someone would believe an ranker can fall down the stairs.'

Dropping his pen on the table and leaning back in his chair, he crossed his arms together and asked.

"What did you want to talk to me about? You are well aware of how hectic my schedule has become since I took over as leader of the Alliance. I have at most thirty minutes to talk with you."

"...Right, you're indeed a busy man."

Ren withdrew his gaze from the surrounding area and turned his attention back to Kevin.

After pausing for a brief period of reflection, he opened his mouth and began to speak.

"I'll be frank with you. I need your help."

"With what?"

"Information."
