The red-robed attendant shot to his feet, his eyes widening as disbelief washed across his face.
For a moment, he just stood there, staring at Shun Long in complete silence.
In the end, all he could mutter were the words
"…Are you serious?"
To his credit, the red-robed man immediately snapped out of his stupor when he realized he had just spoken informally to a customer of their chamber of commerce. Hurriedly bending forward, he gave the azure-robed elder a deep bow and quickly recomposed himself before he continued,
"My apologies, honored customer. It's just that your request is somewhat... unordinary, so I was taken aback for a moment. But this is also why I have to make sure there are no mistakes. Are you serious about what you just said?"
Shun Long didn't answer right away. He just nodded calmly, his golden eyes meeting the man's with a deep, steady gaze that left no room for questions.
