�Let�s eat dinner together tonight.�

Cale saw that Choi Han, Mary, and the others who were not a part of the meeting surround Lock and continued to walk without any second thoughts.

�What are you doing? Are you not going to eat?�

This tent had been created for Cale.

A decent dinner table was set up in this quite large tent that was imbued with soundproof magic.

Cale continued to eat the food in front of him and peeked toward the other side.

�Did the Breck Kingdom not feed you?�

�N, no, they did.�

Lock flailed his arms in shock. However, Cale�s expression did not look good.

Kim Rok Soo had once had to starve in the past. He did not enjoy seeing children looking so skinny. Although Lock had always looked feeble and his tall height made him skinny from the start, he seemed even thinner now.

Cale looked at Lock, who was holding a fork but unable to eat anything, before turning his gaze back to his plate.

�If you have something to say, hurry up and say it so that you can eat some food.�

Lock flinched and looked at Cale.

Only Raon, Cale, and Lock were at the table. The others were eating dinner together elsewhere. Lock knew the reason Cale had prepared this meal for just the three of them. He slowly started to speak.

��Really, I really trained very hard. I wanted to show you that you were right to trust me, and so I trained as hard as I could.�

�I trust you.�

Lock had trained endlessly at the Gorge of Death in order to thank Cale for trusting him. He had worked so hard, such that he had almost passed out numerous times.

Every day felt so long at the Gorge of Death if he did not do that.

But most importantly, he didn�t want to be left behind as his friends got stronger.

�I pushed myself harder and harder after hearing about how Choi Han-hyung and the others performed during the battles.�

The story of how they had protected the Henituse territory.

The story about the battle at the Roan Kingdom�s shores.

Hearing those stories had made his heart beat wildly. JrNovels.com
