What names?” Asked Lulu in a hurry. “There shouldn’t be any players here other than you.”
“They are kind of odd named, one is Black the other one is White.” Said Einsten.
“Oh, I see, there’s nothing to worry about, I know them.” Answered Lulu.
“And we know you brat.” Spoke somewhat loud voice from behind the rock.
“Who are you, show yourself.” Yelled Max as he vanished.
“Oh a demon, and a dimension walker at that, how unique, come show me what you can do.” Sounded the same voice again.
Soon after that soft muffled grunt was heard and Max came flying over the rock and falling in front of Lulu.
“Hey White moron can you go a bit easier on him, he’s just a kid you know.” Spoke Lulu.
“Who are you calling moron pixie, do you want me to spank you again you wretched mosquito.” Said white haired boy as he stepped out beyond the rock, his short white hair was spiked from the front to the back, with a grin on his face he walked slowly towards Lulu.
“One more step and I’ll tell black moron to tell on you to the big guy.” Exclaimed Lulu slightly panicking.
“Before you tell me anything, would you mind skipping the moron part? I don’t mind letting this idiot punish you if you keep doing it.” Spoke a soft voice as black colored figure appeared in front of white haired boy, his long black hair was dancing without the wind around him and there was a cold shine in his eyes as he looked at Lulu.
“Okay, okay, I won’t say it anymore just keep that dog on a leash.”
“Who are you calling a dog u damn bug, [White Silence].” Spoke the white haired boy as he pointed his finger at Lulu, Lulu seamed like she started screaming at him but no one could hear her speak a single word.

“Ah how peaceful now that that bug is quiet. Now get up young one, I don’t believe that flick of mine knocked you out, you are tougher than that.”
Just as he finished speaking Max once more disappeared from where he was, in a second later white boy swatted his hand like he was keeping flies away and Max appeared flying back exactly where he fell first time.
“Done with the games young one? Can we talk now?” Spoke white haired boy as he yawned with hand over his mouth.
“Talk? How about you remove your silence from Lulu before we talk then?” Said Max as he stood up and tapped himself to remove the dust.
“Unique proposal, but I have to refuse, can you see that little bug still fuming over there like a damn volcano? I should just let her scream at me? I don’t think so.”
“Hey black guy, can you do something about this?” Spoke Max as he turned over to the black guy, Black just looked at him and nodded slightly before pointing his finger at White.
“[Black Seal].” He whispered softly, immediately after that Lulu started screaming and White stood frozen in spot.
“You god damn, hot headed, irresponsible warmonger.” Yelled Lulu as she violently flapped her wings while Max held her in place.
“Unseal him, let’s have a normal talk, Lulu keep quiet or I will let them silence you again.” Spoke Max, soon after White started moving again, he glanced at Black and with few grumbling noises he sat down on a small rock nearby.
“Now, considering this little pest knows you, you are probably part of the system too, aren’t you?” Asked Max calmly.
“You could say so.” Answered softly Black.
“Then why are you here?”
“White was bored so we went for a walk, we saw you fight so we decided to stick around, your group is kind of amusing to us, that’s all, but now considering you noticed us our fun is over. I also want to reward you for noticing us, do you wish to start your first quest now? Beware, this quest is slightly different than usual starting quests.”

“You followed White on a walk? Who are you trying to lie to boy, unless ordered you never follow him.” Spoke Lulu in contempt.
“Watch your mouth fairy, speak any more and I will replace you with someone who knows what they can say and what they can’t. And call me boy one more time I will silence you permanently, don’t forget who is older one here.” Spoke Black softly without even glancing at Lulu, Lulu immediately shut up and froze in spot.
“As a matter of fact we both are older than you, so why are you afraid of him and not me?” Grumbled in discontent White.
“Because he is serious, and god knows when was the last time you were serious.” Answered Lulu.
“Are you calling me a kid again?” Stood up ragingly White, but he glanced at Black once and sat down immediately.
“Stop acting childishly, Lulu I will warn you final time, think before you speak or there will be punishment.”
“Yes, yes, I get it, continue.”
“Now, let’s talk business, do you want our quest or not?” Spoke Black.
“Single person or group?” Asked Max.
“Your choice.”
“Is it hard?”
“It could be.”
“Give each of us a single quest and we will accept.”
“No.”
“But you said its my choice.”
“It is, but that isn’t part of the choice, pick, single one for you, or group quest for all of you.”
“I choose group quest then.”
“Fine, next kobold you kill will drop you a quest item for your whole group, the harder it is for you to kill that kobold, the harder the quest will be.”
“Interesting.” Mumbled Max.
“Hey kiddo, can you not say that word please?” Spoke White all of the sudden.
“Interesting?”
“Yes, stop saying that.”
“Why, it is interesting.” Spoke Max in confusion.
“Just stop it damn it, I’m having flashbacks every time I hear that word.”
“It doesn’t seem like it’s one of those good flashbacks.”
“If they were I wouldn’t tell you to stop saying that word.”
“Oh, interesting.” Said Max with a slight grin on his face.
“There you go again, god I want to slap you so hard right now.” White said as he stood up, but before he could even make a step Black raised his finger and pointed it beneath White.
“[Black Portal].” A black colorless hole appeared beneath White and he fell through it.
“I bid you farewell, best of luck young ones.” Spoke Black as he jumped into the portal before it closed.
“Lulu who are they?” Asked Max.
“Only thing I can say to you right now is that they are primordial, as for the meaning or more explanation, I can’t do that.” Said Lulu.
“He could see me, why is that?”
“You need tens of thousands more levels for you to just touch him, barely once, hundreds of thousands so you can fight him, and if he is in a good mood you might even punch him, but never think of a possibility where you can beat him. That is what a primordial is.”
“Interesting.” Said Max with a slight smile.
