Making friends?

Pondering for only a short few moments, Aziel shook his head in response.

"I have lived a very secluded life up until recently. What you both saw was basically just a breathing exercise to circulate one's Internal Energy. I have never heard of about the worldly matter, nor about any of these Martial Grandmasters besides my Master."

Seeing that the old man was about to ask again, Aziel raised his index finger to silence him and added.

"He has sadly already passed away. One of the main reasons I have left my seclusion and have ventured to experience the secular world. I am afraid I'm not the person you may be thinking of."

The elderly man seemed perplexed by Aziel's confession. He had only heard bits and pieces about the mysterious world of mythical people. Stories about Sects living hidden in the shadows, then again clans and powerful families with supernatural abilities and otherworldly nature were all but stories in old, dusty tomes.
