Nick got out of the car and walked over to Yena, who had time to salute him by bowing his head formally. He also stood up straight in front of Nick when Nick had arrived right in front of him.

"So, has this man named John come, Yena?" That's the question that came out of Nick's mouth to Yena who was now looking at him very formally. Yena shook her head slowly, but still with a smile that never left her lips when she was in public. Nick exhaled and then entered the restaurant first, so Yena and some of the bodyguards followed him.

Nick sat down at one of the dining tables in the restaurant and took a napkin that was neatly folded on the table. He put the napkin around his neck, then spoke. "Then bring me the steak! I'm hungry and will eat first." Nick said to Yena, causing the woman to immediately turn to the chefs standing in front of the kitchen who quickly entered the kitchen to bring fresh steak which they had already prepared because Yena ordered it ten minutes ago before Nick's arrival.

Nick was surprised when the dish arrived quickly and still looked warm. Nick smiled and turned to Yena and said, "Okay, at least this steak came on time!" said Nick enthusiastically. He immediately ate the dish voraciously, because his hunger was unbearable. Meanwhile Yena just smiled and took a few steps back to give Nick more freedom to enjoy his food.

But at the same time, a bodyguard who was actually guarding the front came and walked over to Yena, making Nick, who was eating his steak, turn around for a moment but then he returned to eating the dish.

The bodyguard whispered to Yena, and walked away after Yena heard it. Yena also frowned and nodded her head slowly at the bodyguard, and the bodyguard left the room to return to his place.

Nick turned to Yena and asked,

"So… Has that person come already?" asked Nick guessing the whisper that the Bodyguard had said to Yena, which then made Yena now turn to look at Nick and smile while nodding at him and saying,

"Yeah, sir… he's already here, and he's outside the restaurant!" Yena replied to Nick, who was now nodding his head and drinking the wine that had been served earlier.

Nick wiped his mouth with a white napkin and then he nodded his head in response to Yena's words as he said,

"Then tell him to come in, what are you waiting for?" said Nick to Yena, who now nodded his head and then turned his gaze to look at the bodyguard who then understood with that gaze and let a man into the restaurant.

When Nick turned his gaze to the man who had just entered the restaurant, Nick was immediately surprised, because the man's appearance was unusual. He wore a long robe so that the cloth from his robe dragged the ground, a hood that covered his entire face and a toy sword he was carrying, which made Nick now feel a headache as soon as he saw the man.

"S… so… you're the one named John?" Nick asked the man who was now nodding his head,

"Eum… ok… may I ask first, why are you wearing a costume to meet me, John?" Nick asked John who was now sitting on the chair opposite Nick's while saying,

"Aren't we the same, Nick?" John asked Nick who was now tilting his head to the side, as if he didn't understand what John was saying to him at that time, but Nick tried not to respond and asked again,

"Sorry I don't understand what you're saying, but… we can skip that and let's get to the main topic!" said Nick to John who now nodded mysteriously, which made Nick turn briefly to look at Yena who was now shrugging his shoulders as if he didn't have any ideas at this time about John.

"Could you show me the coat of arms you have that looks exactly like the one I put in the paper, John?" Nick asked John who now nodded his head and then showed the sword he was carrying, which now Nick himself believed that inside the sword shaft, was engraved a symbol similar to the one in the newspaper, which of course made Nick exhale and nod lazily. while waving his hand at Yena, which made Yena immediately ordered two bodyguards to take the man named John out of the restaurant.

"Khkh ..." Nick chuckled without saying anything else, this is only the second day and the next day will definitely be more tiring than today, that's what Nick now knows, which he finally exhaled and said,

"I didn't think that the contest I was doing attracted a lot of desperate people!" Nick said to Yena who was now holding back her smile, but Nick knew that Yena was laughing at him right now, but Nick couldn't do anything to make her move and hand over the crazy man data to Yena and immediately left the restaurant with mixed feelings because Yena laughed at him that day.

Nick got into his private car muttering, "I hope tomorrow isn't worse than today!" that was the hope he gave, which made Ab the driver smiled and nodded in response to the hope, "Forward!" said Nick and the car drove back to leave the restaurant.

Like the previous day, Nick's expectations on the next day were the same, he felt his expectations were crushed by desperate people who only wanted to get the treasure promised by Nick, which of course made him even more dizzy and even had a headache. And that night, is the night where Nick will meet the last person to contact him, she is a woman named Imelda.

The skinny woman with pale white skin there is the same as Yoana, she considers that the competition conducted by Nick is a talent search event, which of course makes Nick tired and no longer excited to undergo a selection like this, he is already annoyed with all the hopes that he raises in every day.

Nick walked out of the building with a very, very bad expression, which of course made Yena go awry at this point.

"Mr Nicholas?!" a call that sounded from a distance, made Nick who was about to get into the car now turned his head and looked at a woman who was now running towards him with a very panicked and tense expression, which of course made Nick now frown and then asked,

"What do you want?" Nick asked this woman who was now exhaling as she said,

"Did you make the contest that was in the paper, sir?" the woman asked Nick which now made Nick exhale and wave his hand towards Yena, which made Yena immediately face the woman, while Nick was about to get into his car,

"I have a friend whose birthmark is the same as the crest you included, sir!" said the woman which made Nick who was about to get into the car stopped and turned his gaze to the woman.

Nick was silent, he never told or included that the symbol was a birthmark to anyone, and including the main newspaper that organized the contest.

'how does he know if it's a birthmark?' that's the question that is in Nick's head right now, so now he walks back and turns his gaze to the woman and asks,

"Are you sure?" Nick asked the woman who was now nodding his head, and from the woman's eyes, Nick could see if he really meant it, which of course made Nick exhale and ask again,

"Did you see the news?" Nick asked the woman who was now shaking her head in response,

"I heard from my customer named John… he asked me to tattoo the exact same logo as my best friend's, and at first I thought he was my best friend's girlfriend, but he started telling me about this contest and I'm sure this friend of mine is the person you're looking for! " said the woman to Nick who was now exhaling slowly while looking intently at the woman's face,

"Alright… if I'm telling the truth, I'll make another meeting with that friend of yours!" said Nick to the woman who was now saying,

"Eum… but he's a commoner… I mean… he doesn't like luxury, so… can we meet him at a simpler place later, sir?" asked the woman who now squeaked and cocked her head and said,

"It can be arranged by Yena!" said Nick to the woman who was now smiling and nodding,

"What's your name?" Nick asked the woman, to which she smiled and said,

"Jenny, sir!" said Jenny introducing herself to Nick who now nodded his head in response to the name,

"Alright… Yena will arrange our meeting again, see you Jenny!" said Nick to Jenny who now nodded his head in response to that, then Nick went back into the car and left the restaurant.
