It had been a long time since he had seen any people with a similar aura to his. He has always kept a sharp eye out for such an individual but after a few decades he had given up. He was contented now to simply make the best out of what he had. He had a luxury suite apartment practically rent free. All he had to do maintain this status quo was to instruct his landlord's daughter in self-defense. The only issue was that due to his lineage he appeared to be in her same age group and rather attractive as well. Because of this she acted odd in attempt to make him infatuated with her. He had no interest in her however.
As he was making his way through the shopping district with his purchases of the day he noticed women staring. He sighed as he pretended to ignore them and continue on his way towards his apartment. He had bought food to restock his fridge before lessons began in the afternoon. After another fifteen minutes he made it to the front of his apartment building. He sighed before stepping inside and making his way up to his room.
Once inside he put away his groceries and got changed before he heard a knock on his door. It was the landlord's daughter all smiles and excited for their lesson together. He invited her in and they reviewed what they had learned in previous lessons before warming up and then he began to teach her a few new moves. He had pads on the floor for when he showed her the moves so that she wouldn't get hurt if he tossed her or flipped her off balance. To end the lessons on a positive note he would let her land the moves on him so that she would feel more so like she was making decent progress.
Once the lesson was finished he graciously ushered her out of the apartment before making his way to the kitchen to prepare himself dinner. He used a few of the ingredients that he had purchased earlier today while he was out and about to make himself a simple meal. He sat down, said grace and began to eat. He closed out his night watching the news and reading his Bible before he received a phone call. He muted the tv and saved his page before answering.
"Hello? Yes this is Arthur. No I'm not busy. Sure I could use the money. Who's the client?....High end huh? How many others? And I'm in charge of all of them correct? Alright. I'll be there in an hour."
He hung up the phone and got a shower. He dressed quickly in black slacks and black dress shirt. He didn't get colds or pneumonia so he didn't have to layer himself with cumbersome clothing. He arrived at a red carpet event within the hour alotted. He met up with his contact and the man showed him the other six. From the smell of them he could tell that they were normal mortals but they all had stature to them that would make any mortal threat think twice.
"They'll do but if anything odd should happen they know enough to stay out of my way right?"
"Of course Arthur. None of them have the abilities to deal with anything supernatural anyway. You get through tonight and you'll be able to afford an entire floor from that landlord of yours."
Arthur smirked.
"You always know how to motivate me. Go home. I got this."
