The Origin...

"Hmm..." Victor hummed as he observed the table members of the Arcane Hunter Organization in person for the first time rather than through a hologram.

Seated before him were four table members, along with the Master, each draped in heavy hooded cloaks, their faces hidden in shadows as if they still wished to maintain secrecy even in their own domain.

"It's been a while, hasn't it... Victor?" the Master spoke softly, his gaze steady as he locked eyes with Victor.

"Indeed... It's been quite some time, Master," Victor responded with a slow nod, his eyes lingering on the bulky hooded figure for more than a second before shifting back to the Master.

"You certainly took your time coming here, didn't you? Even though we called you repeatedly?" the Master questioned, his tone calm, yet there was an unmistakable edge of irritation beneath his words.
