Not long after, footsteps could be heard and the door opened. A seven or eight year old child stood at the door, wearing a ridiculous robe. The robe was so long that it touched the ground. The child had an intelligent appearance to him and said cautiously, "Can I help you?"

Saleen was very embarrassed when he found out that the child was a high-level mage disciple.
