Not To Turn Hope Into Grief

In one of the high end restaurants placed within Hiel city, were two guards in their lunch break. Both of them were cultivators at the high immortality stage, and their dark tan and skin covered in scars, showed that the two of them were amongst the many mercenaries that had been hired to patrol the city.

The two were the only customers of the restaurant, as it was still too early for the restaurant to welcome guests open. Nevertheless, the employees of the Golden Karma Company were granted this privilege. Tenting to the restaurant hall, were a girl and a boy in their early teens, while in the kitchen, was the cook that was preparing the dishes in advance for when the customers would arrive.

"Something is strange with this company.." muttered one of the two men while in between bites, interrupting the silence abruptly.
