A week had elapsed since Erik's memorable dinner with Mira. During that time, he had been relentless in hunting Thaids. His efforts had filled the guild's coffers with a substantial amount of money and made him gain a lot of experience points.
However, Erik had delegated the day-to-day affairs of the guild to his clones—Noah, Luke, Ari, Yori, Nick, Damon, and Swaran. This allowed him to focus on broader plans and personal matters.
On this morning, Erik found himself in his office. He picked up the phone and dialed Luke's number.
Erik's voice was firm as he spoke into the receiver. "Luke, could you and the others come to my office? It's time for an update." His brow furrowed, a physical manifestation of the thoughts swirling in his mind.
