�This is my way of agreeing with you, Eruhaben-nim.�

Eruhaben found this to be suspicious. He didn�t know what was going through Cale�s mind.

Cale was thinking about how Raon, as well as everybody else in his group, would take whatever they could from this Dragon for the next three months.

He had thought that this Dragon would be scary, but it just ended up being a nice old man who continued to help them out, even as he grumbled.

�Human, I do not know why you are smiling like that again, but you need to hurry back.�

�I got it. I�ll only take a few people and come back soon.�

Cale responded back to Raon�s repeated question, but suddenly felt nervous after thinking about the group that would go to the Jungle with him.

***

The next day, Cale figured out the source of that nervousness.

�Enjoy your trip, human! Don�t step in to take action and get hurt again!�

They were standing in front of Eruhaben�s lair. Cale was not paying attention to any of Raon�s concerned statements, as he was currently deep in thought.

�I knew that something was weird.�

Cale�s gaze turned toward the group that would be going with him.

First of all, in order to go through the, �Path of No Return,� one of the Five Forbidden Regions, he needed On with him. On was currently saying goodbye to Hong. Cale walked past On and toward the others.

Choi Han, Beacrox, and Ron.

�Mm.�

It was a combination that he couldn�t help but groan about.

�Should I have brought Hans instead?�

Cale thought about Hans, whom he had left back in the Ubarr territory. An unknown coldness made Cale get the chills and start to shiver.

�Young master-nim, are you okay?�

Ron approached him and pretended to be a nice old man.

��Yes, I�m okay.�

�I�m glad that you are okay. Please let me know if you start to feel sick.�

Ron put on his usual benign smile. JrNovels.com
