Life at the Top

Kerrick received the details of the mission from Joe soon after accepting it.

It was a very detailed document on Steven. Not only was there information about Nirina himself, but there was also everything one could find about his address and such.

“Yes, Boss!” Kerrick’s subordinates started to gather what they need immediately.

Kerrick did not plan to draw this mission out and immediately sent out his cruelest subordinate.
