In the early morning, the team leaders of each team have assembled to welcome their new co-workers that will work with them.

Just about the time, when the clock hit 9 o'clock, a couple of people emerged into their company's building. All clad in their respective formal attire.

Walking in sync with one person leading in the front. The group stopped in front of the Chairman.

The others could see on their clothes, the badge consisting of stars or more like a constellation. Each has a different pattern, as what the team leaders already knew, those badges are based on the Celestial Arcane's respective title.

The twelve constellations that all knew about and the leader are Aries. The members used the constellation's name as their title and rank.

"Chairman, I suppose."

The man that was leading the group asked first, his voice was firm with a sense of authoritativeness.

"Yes, that's true. Welcome to the Company, Celestial Arcane. But I could see that one of you is missing."

The two exchanged a simple handshake.

"Yes, Aries would be coming tomorrow due to some personal business."

When they heard this, they knew that this man is not the leader. The one who didn't know from the start was baffled by this because the man in front of them looked like the leader, now they couldn't imagine what Aries actually looked like.

Lee Soohyuk who was just behind the Chairman observed the man who he knew from his badge that the Taurus, the second-in-command.

"That was a shame. I have gathered the team leaders from each team for today to let you guys know each other better. Looks like Aries would need another introduction."

"That was not a problem, Chairman. Aries didn't like this sort of thing. It was actually her plan to not come today due to knowing that these things would happen."

A small smile that sends a chill down the Chairman's spine formed on Taurus's face.

"She would like to see the team one by one on her own."

The Chairman sweatdropped.

"Ah, yes. Of course. Aries can do that."

"More importantly, Aries has a request for tomorrow."

Taurus's gaze landed on Lee Soohyuk. Lee Soohyuk offered his languid smile by the sudden attention.

"She wanted Team Leader Lee Soohyuk from Team 1 to be the one assisting her for tomorrow."

All eyes now landed on Lee Soohyuk whose smile did not falter.

Of course due to the fact that he has the honour to meet the mysterious leader of Celestial Arcane himself. He has been  looking up at Aries since he heard about Celestial Arcane.

[A leader who saves people by the night from hungry eating monsters.]

Aries has been his idol.

However, he didn't know yet that the feelings were mutual.

"Of course, that can be arranged. Team Leader Lee, empty your schedule for tomorrow morning to assist Aries."

"Yes, Chairman."

Taurus kept looking at him, more like observing him and he knew that.

"She will be coming at this time just like the rest of us. Please look after her on our behalf, she could be vexing sometimes."
