Whaaaaaaa-

Cale could hear the Black Dragon�s voice, as well as the cheering of the crowd for a knight who had just received a medal. Cale felt like he could guess what the Black Dragon found to be interesting.

However, because Cale was human, he understood the feelings of the people who were still alive better than the Black Dragon. There were times to be sad and times to be excited.

Clap, clap, clap.

That was why he clapped for the medal recipients as well. The atmosphere was much better now. People all enjoyed the medal ceremony as if it was a festival. This jovial environment made it possible for anybody to approach Cale right now.

�Young master Cale.�

Cale turned toward the quiet voice calling out to him. There were quite a lot of nobles who headed back home, thinking that the capital was a dangerous place because of the terror incident. That was why the number of nobles here was less than before, but one of those nobles approached Cale and called out to him.

�What is it, young master Venion?�

Venion Stan was still here. In addition, the heads of each region were still here as well.

�I heard that you declined a medal. Will you not regret it?�

The gazes of the nobles who had been looking up at the platform all turned toward Venion and Cale. Cale did not know why Venion was smiling so gently and asking him that question.

� I want to kill him.

Cale was just worried that Venion�s body would blow up right here. Cale hoped that the Black Dragon would calm down as he thought about the medal.

Cale had rejected a medal. The reason for it was simple. He did not want to get, �recorded.�

There is a record of all of the past kings of the kingdom in the highest floor of the royal library. The floor underneath that holds the record of all of the, �heroes,� who have received different medals of honor throughout the history of the kingdom.

The crown used the fact that they needed to continue to provide these heroes with their reward money to locate and keep track of these heroes.

�That might sound like fame and honor to others, but it just sounds like chains to me.�

Cale did not want to be recorded anywhere. It was easier to forget someone who was not recorded. Who would remember the incidents at this plaza in the future when war was going to break out soon? Even if they recalled this incident, they would remember other things first.

The fact that he knew this was part of the reason Cale had decided to step forward during the terror incident, as well as the reason he wanted to avoid getting recorded.

Cale started to smile as he looked toward Venion and started to speak.

�What would I regret?�

Cale had nothing to regret. He had received a handsome reward, and most importantly.

�It is enough that we managed to survive.�

He was able to live without getting seriously injured. That was the absolutely most important truth for Cale, no, for Kim Rok Soo. The area around Cale became silent. Venion spoke after a while so as to break that silence. JrNovels.com
