�Yes.�

Billos did not ask anything else. He understood it as Cale spending some time in either the Roan Kingdom�s Northwest or Northeast before heading to the Gyerre territory in February.

However, the North that Cale was talking about was neither of those locations.

Vice Captain Hilsman walked Billos out while Choi Han asked Cale a question.

�Cale-nim, are we pushing back the young master Antonio situation until February?�

�We have to. I ended up staying in the Empire longer than I had expected.�

Staying in the Empire longer than expected had thrown off his plans.

He needed to push back the plan about using young master Antonio Gyerre�s weakness for a later time.

Cale shrugged his shoulders at Choi Han, who seemed to be concerned that their plans had to be changed.

�We have no other choice. It is almost the new year. Shouldn�t we spend the new year at home with our family?�

�Ah.�

Choi Han let out a small noise. Cale started to pet the Raon�s round head that had suddenly appeared as he continued to speak.

�I said I would be home for the new year, so I have to go.�

He had told both his father and On and Hong that he would spend the new year at home. He had to keep his promise. ((TL: Such a good boy.) )

�Don�t you agree?�

�You are right. Cale-nim, you are definitely right.�

Choi Han smiled innocently as he nodded his head. Cale watched Choi Han before telling the two Dragons and the one human their upcoming plans.

�We will spend the new year at home and then head up north.�

�Human, are we going to see the Whales?�

�Yes.�

Witira had frequently brought up the contract for the sea route. Cale was planning on preparing a place for the Tiger tribe before heading up north to meet with the Whale tribe.

�But that�s not all.�

He picked up the magic bag that Billos had brought and handed it to Eruhaben and Raon. Eruhaben, who had been looking at Cale with a suspicious gaze, picked up the bag and asked.

�Are they alchemy ingredients?� JrNovels.com
