"...For convenience's sake. Having powers on other fields helps a lot when I want to do things. I'm not usually here, but I came to deal with some matters today. To think that I would meet you here.." Aceras was a bit taken aback, but still answered after a short pause.

He was awfully vague, and that made Xu Jiaqi more reluctant to believe in him.

Panic momentarily flashed through his gaze. The panic of someone trying to hide something. It disappeared within seconds, but Xu Jiaqi already caught it.
