Hong looked behind him before agreeing with his sister. The Black Dragon was still looking in their direction. Hong was now sure. This dragon will enjoy its freedom for a bit, before sharing some beef with him in the future.

Cale ordered the two kittens who were whispering to each other.

�Go get the orb back.�

The two siblings went to get the orb so that they could eat some more beef. Cale did not even look at the siblings, as he patted Choi Han�s shoulder.

�Good work.�

Today should have been the first time Choi Han ever saved anything. There was that battle with the bandits earlier, but that was more protecting than saving.

Of course, the actual events changed from saving the village people from the dragon in the novel to saving the dragon that he actually had killed in the novel, but the important thing here was that he, �saved,� someone.

�Cale-nim.�

�What.�

Choi Han was silent for a while after calling out to Cale�s name, before he finally started to speak once again.

�What if the dragon decided that living as it wants was to follow you, Cale-nim?�

�That will never happen.�

�What if. Just hypothetically speaking.�

�Hypothetical?�

Cale thought about it for a while, before lightly responding.

�I don�t think about what ifs or the past.�

But for some reason, Cale suddenly got the chills and looked behind himself for the first time since walking away from the dragon. Thankfully, the Black Dragon was not visible.

Cale sighed in relief, before returning to the inn and falling asleep. That was why he did not know that the dragon used magic for the first time to become invisible, and sat at his window for a long time before leaving. The dragon was tightly clutching the bag of potions that Cale had given him.

The next day, Cale had to deal with Choi Han�s questions from early in the morning.

�Cale-nim. There is a city coming up in a few days. Is that the middle point?�

It was almost time for Choi Han to finish making up his, �payment,� that Cale had talked about.

It also meant that Cale was getting closer to receiving another ancient power for himself. Originally, in the novel, the eldest son of Marquis Stan�s family, the one who was pushed out by Venion, would find this ancient power in about a month. It was his last glimmer of hope, but, unfortunately, it ended up being a power that he could not use.

Cale just casually nodded toward Choi Han on this early morning and picked up the glass of cold water that Ron had prepared for him. Cale recalled what Ron had said earlier, as he felt the cold water flow through his body.

�Young master, it is not good to take such a long night walk. This Ron was very worried about you.� JrNovels.com
