Barry sniggered. ‘I knew I was quick-witted!’
He caught up to Adrian and said, “Sir, I’ve admired you for a long time and I wish to seek your mentorship. Will you take me as your apprentice?”

Barry hastily added, “Sir, I’m not seeking to learn for nothing. I have information to offer in exchange!”
Adrian checked the time and said as he continued to walk, “You have thirty seconds.”
“I know how the Luposians entered the country,” Barry said hastily.
