Chapter 294 Warm Welco
Slyvia was silent after what she said to Mok Jae-Hwa, none of them understood what she ant. Raith tried to divulge more information from her but she blatantly ignored him.
At first, he thought she had a crush on him when they first t at the airport. But to suddenly ntion sothing about a dragon's blessing.
He asked Mok Jae-Hwa if he had ever t a dragon before, but the response was no. At the ti when the Dragon Gate was raided, he was a very young disaster-rank hunter with a promising future. He didn't even know what one looked at.
So what is this about? Raith's mind was left tugging through the web of confusion, it worried him what Slyvia had said.
A small crowd of people waited for them at the front gate as their car arrived, it was soothing to see that he was being expected sowhere but at the sa ti the feeling was uncomfortable. Raith missed the days when it used to be just him.
It had not even been that long. It was just a year ago. It was a year ago he died from the ice troll and got his first death trial.
A lot has changed in one year and he was now twenty-two. That age of his was one of the hardest things to integrate into his consciousness. Sotis he couldn't help but feel like he was aging backwards.
'...'
If he had completed the thought and said it ntally, he felt like he would have betrayed himself. Instead, his eyes caught the passionate gaze of the people that waited for him.
"Lord Raven."
"Lord Raven..."
They all muttered in turns as he got down from the car and walked into the temporary encampnt.
Most of the people that survived Therut were young, except for a few elves and mothers. Raith slowly observed them and tried not to make it obvious.
He was trying his best to go along with this kind of thing but it was not getting easier by the day.
After greeting a horde of people by the way, he finally entered the room. To et with Mok Jae-Hwa who insisted that he should rest first but Raith was feeling too giddy to rest.
"Tell ..."
"Half of the populace have awakened their powers. Yesterday, so kids snuck out and caused a ruckus during their awakening, I was able to get them back from the police before the hunter association could find out about it. But I fear that things might get ugly when they find out."
Mok Jun-Seo rubbed his beard.
"Considering that son of a bitch is now the dog of the governnt and wants to have it out with . Should the association get to know about this? They will co for us. This just ans we have to speed up the whole process."
Mok Jae-Hwa's gaze turned to his father but drifted away as quickly as possible.
"You have been looking at like that since we ca into this country. Is there sothing you want to tell , you bastard?"
'What father calls their son a bastard?' Raith shook his head at the absurd relationship between these two... it was envious.
With a sigh, Mok Jae-Hwa finally spoke:
"Didn't you hear about it, I thought you had..."
"Hear what?" Mok Jun-Seo's thick brows ca together to form a frown.
"Your master, Li Mingwu is dead."
The news didn't co as a shock, but still, Mok Jun-Seo found it hard to maintain a calm composure. His eyes trembled and his hands began to follow in the sa sequence.
Raith imdiately glared at Mok Jae-Hwa who turned away in regret. He really should have thought twice before revealing the information.
"I need to make a trip to Arica." Mok Jun-Seo said, he bowed his head slightly before Raith and excused himself.
His sudden growth in etiquette before Raith who was not even as old as his son surprised Mok Jae-Hwa.
"What happened in Antarctica?" He asked with a squinted gaze.
"Nothing, we killed a bunch of monsters and had to co ho because you couldn't handle things here."
"What do you an, I just needed to inform you..."
"Alright, alright. Right now there is sothing I have to do."
"What?"
Raith leaned forward, clutched his bands, and rested his jaw on them.
"Can you get the highest grade runestones, like five?"
Raith's request was odd. These were things he never asked for. He was skilled with combat, he had an arsenal of army that he could command. A summoner and a warrior. What would soone like that need skills for? Except they were summoner skills.
"I don't think there are any summoner skills in the market right now but I will check."
"When did I say I need summoner skills? Just get anything. I don't care what it is."
Mok Jae-Hwa shrugged at Raith's reply, he thought he needed summoner skills and that was why his response was in that line. If Raith didn't need summoner skills then what did he need the runestones for?
Moreso, five. For hunters, there was a limit to how much skill they could have. Although there is no way to asure that limit. However, there is always that point that a hunter cannot absorb runestones anymore.
A point where they have reached their limit. Mok Jae-Hwa found five high-grade runestones for Raith alone too troubling. It made him wonder about the extent of Raith's power.
"I will excuse myself then... one more question before I do leave."
Mok Jae-Hwa sat back down just as he was about to stand up.
"Yes?"
"Who is that lady?"
Raith was growing tired of the sa question even though he had only had to answer twice.
"She's a dragon. An ice dragon."
"No way..." Mok Jae-Hwa chuckled at Raith, sotis the guy has no sense of humor. He makes absurd jokes.
Mok Jae-Hwa's chuckle shafully ca to a stop as he noticed the blankness on Raith's face as he stared.
"Wait. Are you serious? She's a dragon."
Raith nodded, "Yes she's a dragon."
"How in the world are you walking with a dragon." Mok Jae-Hwa clamored, his hands following in certain gestures of how surprised he was.
"Well, I t her in the cold continent and we fought and we made a peace treaty just before I could kill her."
Raith sounded full of confidence but Mok Jae-Hwa didn't believe Raith alone would have been able to kill a dragon. But there was a variable...variables, his armies.
'It might be possible if his entire army was involved.'
Mok Jae-Hwa considered that and nodded his head slightly, still, it was hard to believe. With the premonition he had about dragons, he felt she would have been able to eradicate all of Raith's army.
He looked up, his eyes staying on Raith's face for a few monts.
"What?" Disturbed by the gaze. Raith sniveled, a hint of anger waning in his tone.
"Nothing... I will excuse myself."
