Big Three Appearance.

About three middle-aged men in black attire shuffled through the carefully planted vegetation near Alec’s house, but the moment they stepped into the courtyard, they froze, seated calmly on the deck of Alec’s home was the Fifth Elder of the Gordons clan, patiently waiting for them.

“Ohhh, one, two… ahh, some big numbers,” the Fifth Elder mused lazily, as his gaze sharp as it fell on them.

“Now tell me, what are three unknown Tier 7 mages doing in the young master’s courtyard at this hour?”

“It’s just a fat elder of the Gordons,” the mage in front sneered, noting the flicker of unease in his companions’ eyes.

“He’s not on the list of elders we need to be cautious of, let’s take him out quietly.”

None of them had expected to run into anyone here after infiltrating the Gordons estate, but since they had, retreat wasn’t an option, they’d already been paid to eliminate Alec, and abandoning the mission now wasn’t something any of them was willing to risk.
