I woke up to the sound of my ringing phone, I look at the clock and it was already three in the afternoon. I took my phone halfasleep and look at my phone, Chan called me, "What's up Chan?", I answered the call.
{I called you so many times. Did you just woke up?}, he asked.
"Yeah, I must be really tired, I had good sleep. What is anyway", I yawned and activated the loud speaker then put the phone down, I stood up anf stetched my arms and legs.
{We need you here in the lair, we need you to choose your preferences regarding to the game}
"Is it really necessary?"
{Yes, if you want the prepation to be done earlt then you must come here now}
"Alright, just let me take a shower first"
{Okay, okay just hurry up}
"Oh no wait, I have to take care on my new recruits first"
{What? You haven't asked them yet?}
"What do you expect?I just woke up"
{Geez, just bring them here with you can't you do that?}
"Good idea, since they'll be part of this soon, maybe I will bring them along", I suggested.
{Okay, do what you want but, what if they'll regret your offer? Wouldn't it be like exposing our lair to an outsider}, he asked.
"No worries, money will force them to agree, I will take them in no matter what"
{Okay, go take a shower and hurry up, I still have some places to go}
{Where are you goi-}, how dare him hanged up on me. I swear he will regret down to his life. Well, I can let it slide if it's Chan.
I pushed the service button and a bystander came in and bowed his head, it was Mr. T, "Good afternoom, Master Shin I hope you had a good rest, what can I do for you"
"Oh it's you Mr. T, sit down and call someone else, I need to discuss something with you", I convinced him and pushes the service button again"
Another bystander came in bowed her head, "What can I do for you Master Shin?"
"Go get me some coffee and a cheese sandwich and you Mr T. What would like?", I asked him.
"It's fine, Master Shin, I don't need anything", he replied.
"The same for him too", he glance at me for a moment and continued to look down again..
"Right away, Master Shin", she bowed her head and left.
*knock* * knock*
Someome knocked at the door, "Who is it?", I asked.
"It's me Butler Ko Master Shin, may I ask come in", It was Butler Ko.
"Oh, Butler Ko come in", I was glad.
Mr. T opened the door and Butler Ko came in, "How are you, Master Shin?", he bowed his head.
"I am very good Butler Ko", I replied.
"Pleasure to meet yoy again Grand Butler Ko", Mr. T bowed his head towards Butler Ko.
"Glad to see you again", Butler Ko replied.
"So, when did you arrive here?", I asked Butler Ko.
"I arrived at around eight in the morning, they said you were sleeping. I do not want to disturb your rest so I waited for you to wake up", he explained.
"I see, I am glad you're here, I am here to discuss somethings between us and Mr. T"
"Mr. T?", Butler Ko.
"Oh right, He is Mr. T. Since it's forbidden to know their names, I gave him a nickname instead"
"I see, yes it's true that an elite bystanders name shouldn't be exposed"
"Yeah, I created this organization yet I am not allowed to know their names, well it just means the bystander department trained a skilled student"
"I am very glad that you understand Master", Butler Ko said.
*knock* *knock* *knock*
Butler Ko opened the door and the bystander came in carrying a tray of our food. Butler Ko took the tray and place it on the table. He hands out my coffee and cheese sandwich, "Is this another set is also for you Master Shin?", Butler Ko ask.
"No, it's for Mr. T", I replied.
Butler Ko went to get the other set, "No, sir allow me to let me", Mr. T interfered and took his meal on his own.
"Come here and sit down in front of me", I asked Mr. T.
"It's okay, I am fine Master Shin", he declined.
"Oh no no, sit down I say", I insisted.
He sat down properly but his looking far away avoiding my gaze, "Look at me, we need to look at each other have a conversation, treat me like a friend would you, youre hurting my feelings"
He look at me and bowed "I am sorry Master Shin, I was very inconsiderate"
"It's fine, you sit too Butler Ko, we have something to discussed about"
"As you wish Master Shin", Butler Ko sat down.
"So, uhmm, here's the thing, Mr. T I need you to fascilitate the one picked up from the minigame yesterday"
"Pardon, What did you mean by that Sir?"
"Those five will be under your belt, train, discipline, and teach them how to be a bystander, I am sure they will learn fast based on their skills, you can do anything you want with them"
"I see, then allow me to take care of them", he bowed his head.
"This might be a bit too much of a request but they need to be perfectly adapt in just a month, is that alright with you?", I asked.
"A month?"
"Yes, if it's okay with you"
He stood up, lift his chin and made a knuckle, he was just like a soldier in a ceremony"I am honored to receive this important request for you, they will be a perfect bystander here then next month"
"Great! Train them well so your group will be an unstoppale team!"
"He is the Number 1 Elite Bystander Master Shin, I am sure he will do fine", Butler Ko said.
"Number 1? You are a the Number 1 Elite Bystander? Woah! That's even better!", I said with excitement.
"Thank you for the praises Master Shin", he bowed his head.
"Sit down and eat your sandwich"
"Yes, Master Shin", he sat down, took the sandwich and had a little bite, he still have the manners while eating. I guess he is just uncomfortable.
"Butler Ko, I need you to sign Mr. T up as my secretary after month, don't forget this okay?", Mr. T was surprised.
"On what kind of secretary Master Shin?"
"The personal, I need him by my side always whenever I am outdoors"
"Understood", Butler Ko replied.
"It's greatly an honor to serve you by your side master Shin", he bowed his gently.
"I guess that's it, take care of the five for me Mr . T, make sure they will be skilled bystanders after they comeback okay?"
"You can assure that, Master Shin", he said.
"Okay, end of discussion, everyone can go now, I will take a shower now or I will be late, Chan will nags at me again"
They stood up and bowed their heads, "We are off, Master Shin", Butler Ko said.
Mr. T opened the door for Butler Ko then he went out after.

My phone receive a call, I took my phone and Chan was calling, {Are you on the way?}, he asked me.
"Yeah, I am on my way there", I lied.
{Good, see you later}, he hanged up the call.
I smirked and put down my phone, "Alright, let's take a shower!", I got up and went to the bathroom.
