397 The Real Prowess of a Core Member (1/2)
”Have you calmed down now, Senior?”
”How rude,” Patrick shook his head lightly. ”Don't you think 8 years is already more than enough for me to move on?”
Honestly speaking, that was the truth since eight years were indeed a long time. However, the wounds on someone's heart were not easy to heal. Some people need a long time, while the others might need shorter time. Everyone was different, and Kanae was not sure about her senior.
”I guess so?” Kanae answered hesitatingly.
Patrick laughed. ”There's no need to be so formal with me. It has been a long time for me to meet with someone else outside from the real prisoners, so my speech might be a bit rusty. However, I'm not one to bother much about them.”
”I understand.”
”Now, anything else you want to know about me?”
Seeing the sparkling eyes from her senior, Kanae knew that he was already longing for someone to talk about his experience. To be honest, there were so many things she wanted to ask, especially regarding Ryukalin Clan and the others, but this was not the right time. It would be better if she learned a bit more about her senior personality than them.
”How long is your sentence in this prison, Senior Pat?”
”My sentence?” Patrick frowned, trying to recall what the guards told him in the past. ”I think it's about 10 or so years. I don't really remember about the trivial detail.”
”That's considered trivial detail?”
”Of course, I can get out of here whenever I want. Why should I remember something like that?” Patrick answered proudly.
Kanae suddenly realized something about this new senior of hers. He was supposedly extremely strong in himself. The confidence he had about breaking out of this place while bragging about them showed that he should have the capability to accomplish it.
Her eyes wandered to the thick bar not far from them. It has closed again since the time was up, but she knew that it was made by one of the strongest materials in this world. If her senior could break it, did it mean his strength was already far surpassing the norm?
Patrick pondered for a moment. ”Shall I call you Rei or Kanae?”
”I think it's better for you to call me as Rei because I'm separating my two identities,” Kanae replied.
Patrick nodded his head. He had heard about the appearance of the new strongest group from the prisoners that he asked. From them, he came to know about how mysterious this group was because they hid their appearance and only appeared at the most crucial moment.
”I have some questions about this, but are you coming here because Master Rudy asks you to fetch me?”
”Ah, no, I come here because I want to meet with you. It's a pleasure to be able to meet with you,” Kanae hurriedly answered. She wanted to know more about the Ryukalin Clan, so she thought that this senior of hers would know more. Thankfully, her bet was correct, and she could gain some important information.
”Also, Master Rudy says that it'll be great if I can meet with you.”
Patrick shook his head. ”That annoying old man is just saying anything he likes. There's no need for you to go through such trouble just to meet with me. This place is not famous for nothing, little lass.”
”But I still manage to come inside,” Kanae grinned cheekily.
Seeing how Kanae acted, Patrick laughed again. He truly liked this new junior of his. No wonder Master Rudy picked her to be his disciple, she was truly interesting.
”I think this shall be the time for us to get out. The chaos because of your attempt is going out of control soon,” Patrick pointed to above. He could guess what she did to come inside the deepest part since he saw for himself the light turned off for a short time. For ordinary prison, a short circuit would only result in a brawl, but for this prison, it was simply a disaster.
