In the evening, Aditya finally managed to find some time to be alone with Spencer and Nathan. No matter how close he was to his family or how much he trusted them, he still felt that there were certain matters that needed to be discussed only when the three of them were alone and away from everyone else's ears.
After all, some of the matters they were going to talk about weren't going to be sweet or pleasant things. Their conversation would inevitably touch upon the darker and uglier side of the Empire, the kind of matters that Nathan, as the Captain of the Shadow Guardian Division, was personally responsible for cleaning up and handling from the shadows.
"I certainly did not expect you to reach Beginner Fifth Order." Aditya said while looking at Spencer. He truly hadn't been expecting anyone from the Dragon Palace to arrive here. Nevertheless, seeing his own people had made him extremely happy, especially since the two standing before him were the ones he trusted the most.
