Jared said to Flaxseed, “Mr. Flaxseed, do let go of me. I was summoned here by Mr. Sanders, you know.”
Flaxseed loosened his grip when he heard that.
Jared added, “Would you like to go in with me?”
“No, I don't want to...”
Flaxseed took several steps back. It was obvious that he was afraid of Arthur.
Jared gave a slight chuckle at that. Having interacted with Arthur for so long, he didn't think the man was scary at all. In fact, the latter was rather kind sometimes.
After leading Jared into Arthur's room, Xavier excused himself.
At the sight of Jared, Arthur smiled. “Jared, what are you doing here so early in the morning? Could it be that you didn't have enough of the wine last night, and you're here to ask for more?”
Jared shook his head. “Mr. Sanders, I'm here to ask if you know anything about Crafting Clan?”
“I do. In fact, there's some history between me and the head of Crafting Clan, Pascal Schneider...” came Arthur's reply.
“History? What kind of history? Does that mean you know where Crafting Clan is?” Jared was elated to hear Arthur's words.
The latter chuckled. “But of course. Let me guess... You're searching for Crafting Clan because you're trying to get the Divine Scroll in order to open the entrance to a secret realm. Am I right?
Jared froze. He didn't expect Arthur to be able to guess everything as if he could see through his mind.
He replied truthfully, “Yes. I found an entrance to a secret realm in the backyard of the Warriors Alliance. There's a chance my girlfriend is locked inside there.”
In response, Arthur said, “I can tell you the address of Crafting Clan, and I will give you a token. As long as you bring the token to Pascal, he will lend you the Divine Scroll.”
