บท 26: Higher Powers

<Knock> <Knock>

A man, sitting behind a beautifully designed wooden desk in a fancy looking office, heard two knocks on his door while busy with his work. "Come in." The man said.

The door opened and a middle aged woman with blonde hair walked into the room with some papers in her hands. "I have a report from the lower cities, one of our people discovered a new candidate." The woman said as she approached the desk.

The man, who hadn't stopped working, finally looked up at the woman, seemingly interested in what she had to say. He held his open hand out and the woman placed the papers she was holding in the palm of his hand.

"Even if they're special, I won't do anything till they're at least 16. You know I don't target kids." The man said as he flipped through the pages the woman handed him.

"I'm aware, Sir, but that won't be a problem this time. The new User is practically 18 already, an unheard of age to manifest an ability."
