*Meanwhile, in the IL Guild Headquarters, nestled deep in Southern Wastelands, the Official arrives*
Hunter: Official! Sir, you've arrived!
Official: Yeah, what of it?
Hunter: Uhm well, last I heard, the northern base where you previously were was conquered by Blue and his companions. Not even ILJ could handle them...
Official: I'm well aware of this.
Hunter: What should we do about this, sir?
Official: Send a messenger to every remaining base. Tell them all to be on the lookout for Blue. Their orders are to detain and capture him...alive.
Hunter: Every hunter, sir? But don't you think that's a bit extreme? He is but one man with one bounty. There are hundreds of others out there.
Official: Are you questioning my orders?
*The Official shoots the hunter a piercing glare*
Hunter: Aah! N-n-n-no, sir!
Official: Send a messenger to the eastern and western bases, and have him relay my orders, NOW!
Hunter: Yes! Right away sir!!
*The hunter sets out about his task. The Official then proceeds into his quarters*
Official: Heheheh, stupid hunters. So easily tricked.
*Suddenly, the Official changes forms, revealing himself to actually be Mephiles, the shape shifter. Thought to have been killed by Blue in the events that transpired 4 months (nearly 2 years to Blue and co.) prior*
??: Are you sure it's safe for you to take on your regular form?
Mephiles: Your shenanigans ever cease to annoy me. Stop sulking in the shadows and show yourself.
??: Fine fine...
*A mysterious figure rises from the ground, revealing himself to Agaranok, once again summoned by Mephiles*
Agaranok: So I assume everything's going as you planned?
Mephiles: Not quite. That Blue is an evasive one, he is.
Agaranok: Ah, I heard. He even managed to lay waste to an entire base of bounty hunters. Such is no simple feat.
Mephiles: Grr, I knew I should've destroyed him when I had the chance. Curse these bounty hunters. Weaklings, all of them!
Agaranok: Calm down. Surely he will not be able to defeat all of them. Yes, he is powerful, but their ranks far outnumber his.
Mephiles: Hmhm, yes. Perhaps you are right. But nothing is certain.
Agaranok: And while we're on the subject, care to remind me why you require my services again?
Mephiles: Just in case this does not work, you will be my contingency plan. A last resort, of sorts.
Agaranok: So you want me to clean up after your messes, huh?
Mephiles: I don't like your tone, Agaranok.
Agaranok: Relax. It is my duty to obey your orders, as you are the one who's summoned me. So, I may as well make the best of it.
Mephiles: Good.
Agaranok: And besides, I've been waiting for the opportunity to challenge Blue again. I wonder how far he's come since our last battle.
Mephiles: Enough! This will not be one of your silly duels of honor. You will defeat Blue by any means necessary if it comes down to it. Is that understood?
Agaranok: *groans* Yes, Master...
Mephiles: Now leave me, you worm! I have business to attend to.
Agaranok: Hmph. As you wish. *disappears*
*After Agaranok leaves, Mephiles resumes the form of the Official*
Official: Hahahah. Soon...soon, you will be mine, Blue. And then I will have my revenge!
*The Official leaves his quarters, afterwards, Agaranok resurfaces*
Agaranok: Hmm, I wonder... Show me how strong you've become, Blue. Show me your true power.
