Zosia: Quick Transmigration System
Chapter 69 - 67- Meeting Xen

Zosia had just left the building when her chip beeped. Thinking it was from Asgar, she opened the chat window to reply.

"Hmm... Took her quite sometime to send the friend request. She must have been contemplating." She thought. Her hand hovered between the accept and reject and decided to go with the accept.

Clicking on accept, she was immediately bombarded with series of messages. And all of them was from Sara.

"Tch... Will reply to them later. This emotion wipe, really made me feel lost." She muttered to herself, her hand clicking on the return button.

Appearing back into her space, she was met with one more person.

Her gaze landing on Asgar with a questioning look.

"Didn't I lock my space, how did he get in?" She thought inwardly, her gaze moving from Asgar to Lucien.

Lucien still had his natural cold look on his expressionless face.

"What do you want?" She said tiredly, her voice mirroring her current emotion.

She was tired and fatigued.

Zosia looked at Lucien when she didn't hear any response from him after a while.

She frowned. She didn't like being ignored, and her temper wasn't exactly good now as she was both tired and irritated.

"What do you want?" She repeated her question. This time around, it wasn't as casual as the first.

The air got tense. Asgar was confused. Shifting uncomfortably in his seat, he looked at his Boss whom he still hadn't expected him to come and the already irritated Zosia, whom he felt that they had already touched her nerves quite a few times.

"Don't you know?" Lucien's voice low and husky.

"Know what?" She lazily raised her eyelids and stared straight at the despicably handsome figure. Looking at his lean body suddenly reminded her of Kent.

"Could Kent help Mirabel?" She asked herself. Feeling that the question wasn't right, neither was she sure he could help, but nevertheless, she hopes they all remain safe and well, mostly alive.

Lucien turned to Asgar, " Didn't you give her the card?"

"He did." Zosia answered. She scoffed, a smile playing on her lips, "Did you perhaps come, so I can thank you in person?" Zosia asked, her gaze never leaving Lucien's.

"Yes. You wouldn't be able to meet me any other time except from when we meet to discuss the mission and you definitely can't thank me in such a crowd. People would think I am doing favouritism."

Zosia smiled. She didn't believe in such a reason. If he had wanted her to thank him, he would have given it to her himself and not through Asgar.

Remembering what Asgar had said when her came to see her, she realized that they may be unto something.

If she dug deeper, the probability of loosing her head is high. It's best to ignore it if she can. Deciding on taking that approach, still with a smile on her face, she spoke;

"I am not an ungrateful person, I wonder how to thank my benefactor."

"That's up to you. Just do well in the upcoming mission and be fast on getting to your 10th main mission."

Zosia couldn't help but wonder if the 10th mission served for something. People she had met kept mentioning the 10th mission to her. There is Ella, Xen and now Lucien.

What could the 10th mission possibly hold?

"Have you used it?" Lucien asked, his expression still unreadable.

"No, I would do that later, since I still have need for my chip." She paused, unsure if they were the right people to ask her question.

"When will I be receiving my own guide?" She asked.

"Isn't Asgar enough for you?" Lucien asked.

"He would be leaving on my 10th mission which I am more than sure, you are aware of."

"That's true, but you can also do without one. First use the card and get more knowledge on the soul world, it would help you navigate the world easier."

Zosia looked at Asgar then at Lucien. She still hadn't gotten the answer she was looking for. She more or less expected the half hearted answer.

"What about the library? I didn't see any on the map."

"The Library is the departmental tower that serves as a major landmark. You would be able to identify it after using the card."

"Are you done with all your questions?"

His words prompted Zosia back to reality. She knew how valuable information was and since he was willing to dispense it to her and even give her card containing knowledge.

Walking towards her bed, she opened the drawer. Bringing out a jug of fermented wine made of fresh fruits and the stream water. She had kept one there for when the group meets for the mission.

Luckily, she had kept one there. Taking the wine, she walked up to Lucien who had a strange look in his eyes.

Lucien received the wine and chuckled. "Thanks. I would be going then."

He left just as he had said leaving Asgar and Zosia alone. Asgar exchanged looks with Zosia who was looking at him with the "what are you still doing here" look.

"I should also be leaving. Bye."

Zosia watched him leave and breathe a sigh of relief. Her gaze moving to the spot where Lucien was sitting.

"Why was his aura so familiar?" Her heart gnawed in curiousity. She had felt that the aura Lucien exuded was familiar at the same time different.

She pondered on where she had felt such a similar aura when the notification sound binged.

It was a call from Xen.

"Hi." Her lazy voice sounded, making the receiver feel their ear tingle.

"Where are you?" Xen asked, his voice sounding gloom.

"My space. Is there a problem?"

"Nope. Just came back from my mission and kinda need a company for a drink."

"From your voice alone, I could tell. You sure you don't want to wipe the emotions?"

"No, I would be better after a drink or two. Maybe a few more."

Zosia looked around her space. She didn't have much to do and decided to go.

"I will come to accompany. Give me the address." She said, completely forgetting that she had to collect her reward and the insert the card.

Entering her personal space, she had a shower and wore a new cloth. A black shirt, trouser and cap. She didn't bother putting on any make up and entered her system space.

She suddenly realized that she had to get her reward and card. Seeing that the reward could still be collected even after waiting for a long time, she wanted to slot in the card, but she wasn't sure if she could still access it's basic functions.

Ting!

Zosia heard the notification sound again. "Could it be from Xen?" She thought out loud.

Opening the chat, if happened to be from Sara. Her current message read;

"Hi... Do you mind if we hang out? I kind of need some company right now, maybe over a drink."
