It was a Monday afternoon, classes were over and the students were heading ho. Michael was going to head ho to practice the new spells he learned. When he reached the gate he saw Mugami Shin talking to a student from a different school. As he got closer Shin looked at him, he said sothing to the student and then pointed at Michael. The unknown student quickly approached Michael.
"Are you Michael Rosales?"
"Umm, yes..."
"I'm Larry Fletcher, I have sothing to give to you." Larry then gave Michael a letter. A little bit confused Michael took the letter and looked at it when he saw who wrote it he was surprised.
"Please can you help ?" Larry bowed his head.
...
After receiving the letter, Michael, Shin, and Larry changed locations and were now at a family restaurant.
"So it says here that Fade wants us to help you. I do kinda owe the guy for what happened back then, but even then I won't just help you because of this. So tell what exactly do you need our help for?"
Shin spoke while eating the steak he ordered, Michael who was sitting beside Shin nodded his head in agreent. Larry looked at the seats near them warily before he spoke about his circumstances. Hearing a bit of Larry's tale Shin frowned as he lifted his hand to stop him from talking. Shin then called one of the servers of the restaurant.
"Call your manager."
"Why sir, is there sothing not to your liking?"
"Just call your manager, right now." Shin glared at the server who was frightened by Shin's aura as he bowed his head and called for the manager. After a few seconds, the manager arrived.
"I want to reserve the entire restaurant, right this instant." Shin then took out a wad of cash from his bag. "This is a hundred thousand zoris."
When the server and the manager saw the amount of money they couldn't help but gulp. The manager hesitated, he could technically get all the people in the restaurant to leave, but that would probably get him fired, still, that amount of money was truly tempting. Shin noticed the hesitation in the manager's expression and knew what he was thinking. Shin then took another wad of cash from his bag.
"Here give each of the custors a thousand zoris as compensation."
Hearing what Shin said the manager no longer hesitated as he bowed his head and quickly called the other staff mbers to help him. At first, so of the custors were angry but then after giving them the money they quickly left with smiles on their faces. The amount given to them was a hundred tis more than the money they used to buy food. A few minutes later only Shin, Michael, Larry, and the staff of the restaurant remained.
"Sir do you have any more requests?" The manager spoke with a pleasing smile on his face.
"Not at the mont, you guys just stay a bit farther away and I'll call you when I need you."
"Alright, just call if you need anything."
Once the manager and the servers were farther away from them, Shin took another bite of his steak and looked at Larry.
"So you're telling that you were able to hire Fade to assassinate the enchantress of the underworld Catherine Walker."
"Yes," Larry nodded his head.
"Alright then, what is it you want the two of us to do?"
"Fade told that the two of you can help save my mother."
"If that's all you want, there was no need to call Michael to help. Do you have a picture of your mother?"
Larry nodded his head and took out his phone, he then showed Shin the picture of his mother.
"Send that picture."
When Shin received the picture he then sent the picture and a ssage to one of his subordinates. After a few seconds Shin got a reply.
"As you command young master." Seeing the ssage Shin nodded his head.
"Alright, now we just have to wait for my subordinates to bring your mother here. Do you have any other requests?"
"Huh?" Larry was dumbfounded by what Shin just said and looked at him confused.
"Why are you looking so confused? Did you think that we were going to go around the brothels in the city looking for your mother? There's no need for that, such jobs I can just have my subordinates do it for ."
It took Larry a bit of ti for him to understand what just happened. It would seem that Mugami Shin was so sort of bigshot, he then looked at Michael who was casually drinking his smoothie, and thought that he was also another bigshot.
"Thank you very much, Sir Shin, Sir Michael." Larry bowed his head almost hitting the table.
"There's no need to thank , I haven't done anything." Michael lowered his head as he was a little embarrassed. He too owed Fade a favor for saving him back then, but it doesn't seem like he would be able to pay it back just yet.
"Alright, so do you need sothing else?"
"Um... Actually, there's sothing wrong with my mother, and the last ti I saw her she wasn't able to recognize . The look in her eyes was hallow as if she wasn't even able to see . Is it possible to cure her?"
"Huh? How should I know, I'm not a doctor... Still, I guess I could call a doctor to see her condition, but for now, we'll wait for her to arrive."
"Thank you."
While Shin and Larry were having their conversation, Michael was frowning as he was talking to the Spirit.
"Those symptoms, it's the sa as the people we helped last ti. Do you think, this has sothing to do with the person who has the book of alchemy?" Michael asked the Spirit in his mind.
"The probability is high, which ans a normal doctor would not be able to cure his mother. Hmph, it's a good thing he knows you, the person chosen by I the great Spirit of the Akashic Records.." The Spirit smugly replied.
