He made eye contact with Cale and saw Cale opening his mouth to speak.

�Choi Han. Grab him. We are heading for the Mercenary King immediately.�

The Rat curled up after seeing Choi Han�s calm and pure expression as he lifted him. The pain in his leg and side disappeared once he saw Choi Han�s scabbard.
However, the Rat could not help but speak again once he made eye contact with Cale again.

Smirk.

One corner of Cale�s lips was twisted up in an extremely wicked way.
The moment he saw Cale�s smile�

�My apologies sir! I�m a terrible bastard!�

The Rat desperately begged once more.

Cale quietly responded.

�Shut your mouth.�

The Rat covered his mouth with both hands.

�Choi Han, let�s go. Can you move both of us at the same time?�
�Yes, Cale-nim. It�ll be quick.�

Cale looked out the cave.
He could have the Rat explain things on their way over.

�Huff, huff, huff-�

Bud was out of breath.
However, he could not stop moving.
He heard a voice behind his back.

�Hey. Leave me behind.�
�Are you crazy?�

He instantly started to frown and responded in annoyance as if telling the other person to stop with such nonsense.

��Haaa.�

He heard weak breathing coming from behind him.

Drip. Drip.

Bud could hear blood dripping down his shoulder falling to the ground. JrNovels.com
