� Cale-nim.

However, Cale became anxious once the call connected.

��First of all, don�t clasp your hands like that.�

Clopeh appeared on the screen with his hands clasped as if he was praying toward Cale.

� I had a feeling you would be uncomfortable with this, Cale-nim.

Clopeh Sekka lowered his hands as he sat there with a calm expression. In return, Cale�s expression turned extremely odd.

�He looks fine, but he�s a total looney.�

� Cale-nim, the reason I called-

�Hold on.�

Cale cut Clopeh off and asked.

�I�ve been curious about this for a while, but why do you keep calling me Cale-nim? Your position is higher than mine. Just call me young master like everyone else. People will think it is weird.�

It was fine for Choi Han to call him, �Cale-nim,� since he had done so from the beginning, however, Clopeh Sekka could not call him that, especially thinking about how they would work together in the future.

Cale thought that Clopeh would understand the meaning behind his words.

� I cannot do that. Cale-nim is not just a young master or a commander. Cale-nim is the g-

�Stop.�

Cale felt as if he should not hear what Clopeh would say next.

He didn�t want to hear that word that started with a, �g.� Cale held back his sigh and continued to speak.

�Why have you been quiet all this time and just now giving me a call?�

Clopeh could see that Cale was looking at him with a cold gaze even though his voice was calm.

It had been much longer than one week since Cale had the Whale tribe strike the Paerun Kingdom�s northern patrol stations. Cale had given them one week, however, the Paerun Kingdom had not contacted him until now. Why did it take them so long to respond?

Clopeh smiled after seeing that Cale was still calm without any signs of anger nor uneasiness.

� I could not come empty-handed.

Cale started to smile.

�I knew this guy�s head worked well.� JrNovels.com
