Most Unreliable Alliance

I was still in my familiar old residence, facing another uninvited guest. However, this particular uninvited guest made me really want to shout for help.

Sitting across from me at a tea table was a seemingly sleepy old man whose snow-white beard reached the ground. His scraggly hair made him seem like a homeless old man, yet the magic power within his body was as deep as the ocean.

I could sense his endless amount of magic power as he was sitting directly across from me. Yet, not a single trace of his magic power reached outside this room.

"…Yongye? You're perfectly alive again."

He put down his teacup and slowly glanced at the tea within, appearing to be highly satisfied with the tea. However, I knew that countless eyes were staring at me.
