LIX

Blue eyes, long brown hair, pale skin and thin lips. She seemed nice from the outside, yet her personality might've been otherwise.
Because, she was from the council after all.

"What have we done now? Was it one of my students?"

Lee asked, standing up from his seat.
He then leaned forward on his table with concern.

"No- not really. I have actually come to investigate something. That's all."

Lee sighed in relief as he blinked once before looking back at her again.

"I see... well, i am as transparent with the council as i should be. So i'm sure that your investigation will be over soon."

She smiled, her eyes forming into cresent moons. It was rather unsettling to look at really.

"Well, we have sensed an exquisitie amount of magic... about twice now. Our intel tells that it came from around here. And depending on the density and strength of the magic... it seems that a gateway to hell has been opened- twice. Which- as you know is forbidden to do without the authorization of the council."

She really was talking too much. Lee sighed.

"Well, it was not me or anyone at my academy, i can assure you that. We don't teach that kind of magic anymore."

Her smile slowly fell as she crossed her arms and sighed.

"I never said that your students were under suspicion. So rest assured. But, even then i still cannot just walk away. I have been assigned here to investigate this further. And in order to so that, i need to be able to walk in and out of the academy uninterrupted... to gather information about this area ofcourse."

Lee sighed again as he observed her from head to toe. It seemed that she was here to just to her job- even though it was still annoying to have her under his foot. But if he turned her down- he would have to put up with the council's complaints. And he didn't want to deal with that. So he ended up just aggreeing with it.

"Permission granted i guess. But do not disturb any of my students wether in class- or if they don't want to be included. I wouldn't want to send you back with force."

She smiled again, nodding.

"Thank you very much sir. Then, my name is Hye. Hope we can work well on this."

Lee frowned, waving her out of the room.
Soon after she left, Hansuk came back in with an apple.

"I saw a young lady go out just now- who was that?"

Lee shrugged, leaning his back on his chair while rubbing the temple of his head.

"A subject from the council... it seems she's here to take out whatever secrets we are supposed to be hiding. Not like we do.."

Hansuk smiled as he sat down on the table, facing Lee. He then gave him the apple.

"I can keep an eye on her for you. Don't worry. But what kind of a search?"

Lee took a bite from Hansuk's hand.

"Nmm...~ appereantly two gateways have been opened to hell- did you know about that?"

Hansuk's eyes widened, shook.

"Really? No- i didn't... but seems kind of shady. What if someone dangerous slipped through?"

Lee shrugged, not really caring.

"I can protect you so don't worry."

Hansuk smiled rather fondly, as he watched Lee lean his head down to lick the juices from the apple.
