It took over three for them to get there. In that time, her traveling companion spoke barely a word.

She still barley knew Leo, but was blindly following him. She was lead down a narrow tunnel. With double doors.

So this is your base?" Mira asked looking at the building that was under a cliff of a forest.

"It has kept us away from the eyes of the Knights" Leo replied

"I see."

Finally reaching a pair of double doors Leo paused.

"Well are you just going to stand there all day or are you going to actually enter the place?" Leo said slightly irritated.

Taking the lead, Leo walked in through the doors. Still wearing his midnight black cloak with hood, with only his soft red eyes peering out of its depths.

Another hallway was present, which annoyed Mira to no end. She wondered where he was taking her.

Was this a trap? A prison? What will he do to me? She started to worry.

It was no prison. He had led her to a mess hall.

A handful of what Mira guessed to be 30 people were chatting at different tables.

"They are really loud." said Mira covering her ears but she had smile on her face.

Leo had straightened himself up, as Mira then realized just how tall Leo really was. But that wasn't what makes him look menacing. It was the coldness of his red eyes as they sweep across the room.

A shush was spread through the room.

One foot in, a crash was heard. Leo's cloak was soaked with what smelled like coffee that was slowly dripping onto the floor.

All members who were still in the room showed to the trembling man who was under the table.

A chill crept down Mira's spine as a sudden pressure was exerted, effectively silencing the guild.

Suprising to her, Leo took a breath and instead stood up and walked over to the bar.

"I need Ria to take care of Mira here. Please pass on the message." he stated whilst pointing to the fire mage beside him.

Mira was nervous. This guy must be the most powerful one here!

Leo took a deep breath as he walked over to Mira. "The woman over there can help you out." Leo said.

"Thanks for your help." Mira said.

"Tch." Leo made a noise.

Mira walked over to who she assumed was Ria. A long brown haired woman with large blue eyes and a cheerful smile was working at the bar and pouring drinks to be served.

"Oh my goodness! Are you alright?!" She gasped looking at Miras current condition. "Did Leo do anything to you?" Ria asked.

Leo seemed to be staring at Mira with sharp piercing eyes.

"Nope."

And with that, he walked up the stairs on the right side of the hall, and out of sight. Finally, the pressure was lifted, and the guild members started up their conversations again.

Mira shivered.

'Just how tough is that guy? Mira shuddered.

"No offense, but you don't look to good. We need to get you cleaned up before anything else," Ria said "And then I can see to your injuries."
