Cale then pressed the button the mage told him to press once he was done. A blue light appeared on the device to signal that the voice message was left.

He then called the mage back in and the mage looked at the light before starting to speak.

�It looks like the message was left properly.�

�Good.�

The mage saw the smile on Cale�s face and decided to speak.

�It looks like you left a pretty happy message?�

�Well, I guess so.�

The crown prince would probably hear the message tomorrow. Cale was smiling about how the crown prince would be waiting a week for his return.

� �I feel bad for the crown prince.

The Black Dragon suddenly started to feel bad for the crown prince. Cale ignored the comment and headed out of the communication room before heading toward the estate to look for Count Deruth. He wanted to take care of everything at once while he was here.

�You want to go to Harris Village?�

�Yes.�

Cale nodded his head at Count Deruth�s question. He had told his father about both the ancient power and Harris Village. However, Count Deruth was focused on Harris Village.

Deruth looked down at the, �Harris Village Incident Report,� in Cale�s hands before looking up at his son. Cale�s gaze looked serious. He really meant it.

Harris Village.

Count Deruth had headed over after hearing the report from the investigation squad. He felt anger and sorrow once he saw what had happened.

The village really was completely destroyed, and there were no signs of the perpetrators.

That was why he had asked for cooperation from the nearby territories, as well as reaching out to the Information Guild to keep their ears open for any information.

��Is it because you are concerned about that young man named Choi Han?�

Count Deruth had found signs of a battle at Harris Village. That allowed him to estimate the level of Choi Han�s strength. There was no way that his son, who had spent a longer time with Choi Han, would not know about his strength.

�I guess you could call it that.�

Cale nodded at Deruth�s words. That was the only excuse he could give anyways.

He could not say that he wanted to go there for the Wolf children�s berserk transformation and wild instinct training. He could not say it was for the Black Dragon�s growth. He definitely could not say that he was going to the Forest of Darkness to find a solution to the Whale tribe�s war against the mermaids. JrNovels.com
