I wore a black suit, a tie and gelled back my hair. It was the traditional hair style referred to as a pomade. The suit and pomade was the perfect combination. Humans felt the need for a presentable appearance.

I drove my car to an underground parking lot near the appointed place. I drove the car with a great deal of expertise.

Of course, I had a driver's license. I only had it for 3 days.

My field of concentration and memory was superior to humans. Once I became accustomed to driving the car, it wasn't that hard.

After driving for 20 minutes, I arrived at Suyu Station. Once I took Exit 3, there was the 2 storey Way Cafe where the appointment would take place. There was no place to park so I headed for a nearby paid parking lot.

I drew a lot of attention the moment I walked into the cafe.

"Celebrity?"

"Look. Really cool."

I naturally heard the conversation.

My neat appearance also drew a good impression from the humans. My judgement wasn't wrong. My appearance wasn't lacking.

I experienced similar things several times in the Demon World. I only thought about getting stronger but it seemed like the Demon World had similar standards regarding beauty.

Indeed. Being a handsome man in the Demon World wasn't that helpful.

They could live comfortably if they caught the eye of a strong female demon. However, that would eventually end. Once abandoned, they would never be seen again. Every last one of them was miserable.

Conversely, a beautiful woman was the strongest weapon itself. Some nobles highly valued the beautiful women in their harem. If they became sick then compensation would be given.

This was all unrelated to me...it was just idle thoughts.

I pulled out my phone and called a number. There were a few rings before the other person picked up.

-Hello?

A male voice. I asked carefully.

"Where is it?"

-Who?

"Randalph. Right now I am on the 1st floor of the cafe."

-Ah, Randalph-nim. Come up to the 2nd floor.

I immediately climbed up the stairs. A man was waving his hand on the 2nd floor. There were a few people gathered around his table. Seven of them. It seemed like I was the latest.

The man put out his hand for a handshake and said.

"Nice to meet you. I am the leader, Yoon Hyuk-soo."

I used Mind's Eye to check Yoon Hyuk-soo's status window.

There wasn't any specific potential.

Tracking skills were a bit unusual but it wasn't a big deal when considering the nature of the Guarder.

I shook his hand and replied.

"Randalph Brigsiel."

"Oh! Are you perhaps a returnee?"

My skin was too bright compared to South Koreans. It was natural to think that I was a returnee. He was also determining the ranks.
