Eruhaben observed the children for a bit before turning his head. He ended up making eye contact with Cale.

Cale�s gaze looked the same as it always did, however, the ancient Dragon found it difficult to keep looking at him for some reason.

However, he started to smile as he knew that one could not avoid something forever. Cale then started to frown and turned away.

Cale ended up making eye contact with the Mercenary King again as a result.

�What? What is it?�

Cale bluntly asked the Mercenary King who was observing him. Bud approached Cale and asked in a quiet voice that others would not be able to hear.

�The ancient Dragon-nim did use the ancient artifact, right?�

Cale looked at Bud�s pupils behind the glasses. Bud started to smile in response and tried to explain himself.

�No, I was just wondering why my friend might have suddenly wanted to enter the training ground alone. That was why I asked one of the many potential situations I had considered.�

Bud�s green eyes behind the glasses started to curl up as he smiled.

A similarly smiling Cale was visible through the reflection on Bud�s glasses.

Cale whispered quietly as well. However, his voice was not very quiet.

Other than the children averaging nine-years-old who were still happily chatting away by Eruhaben�s side, the others had moved over toward Cale, who was a bit away from them.

Cale spoke in a quiet tone that was loud enough for experts like Choi Han, Ron, and Beacrox to hear.

�There is no longer an ancient artifact for anyone but Eruhaben-nim to use anymore.�

This was technically the truth.

Although the ancient artifact was in Cale�s possession, he was saving it for Eruhaben.

Cale could see Choi Han who was looking at him after hearing what he just said.

He could see Ron and Beacrox nodding their heads as well.

Cale had suddenly entered the training ground alone. Everyone was curious about what Cale and Eruhaben had done inside there.

They probably had their own hypothesis about what happened.

Cale looked back toward the Mercenary King and quietly added on.

�So let�s hurry on.�

He needed to take care of the tasks at hand as quickly as possible. JrNovels.com
