An Old Fear

“Guild leader! We are returning from our mission!” one of the spies said right after stepping inside the office of their boss. “What? Already? I thought you are at least going to take at least a few days. But to think that you are already back. I guess I underestimate you both too much.” He said with a smile on his face. “So? What is it that you got? You found out who the person that they will be sending?” he asked and the two immediately nod their heads.
“Yes boss. The person that that guild leader Mondo will send is Peter.” He looks at them with a confused expression. “Peter? I don’t think there is a name that is famous around here. Is he perhaps new?” they shake their heads ones again. “I don’t think he is new but we did not think that he is that strong to be given that mission.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean- he doesn’t look as someone strong in the past. He is quite opposite to be exact, in our business, people are expected to be ruthless and unforgiving but he is the complete opposite. That is why we don’t understand why he is considered strong but after seeing something earlier. We are certain that he might be hiding his ruthlessness under a fake mask. He is trained by the guild leader himself. And we got to see the angry look on Mondo’s face for the first time.” Their boss is left speechless after hearing what he said.
“So you guys saw it as well huh? I thought I will be the only one to see his angry face as well. I remember the first time I saw it, all the hairs on my entire body stood like needles.” He said with a masochistic smile.
