Chapter 392: Stunned (2/2)

”You want to join them?” He asked.

Aina blinked before nodding.

Leonel smiled. ”Then I do too.”

His reply was simple but it held quite some sharpness to it. It was very obvious that he was only doing so for Aina, yet it also seemed this was enough to firm his resolve to an immovable degree. It sounded like even if Sael tried to reject him now, he would fight her to the death for standing in his way.

Sael was stunned for a moment before her eyes glowed.

'Could it be about that? Of course, how could I not think of that…'

Sael looked away and began mumbling to herself like a madwoman. She nibbled at her red lips, lost in her own thoughts.

'If it really is about that then this could either be a great opportunity or a catastrophe… I can't make this decision on my own… Forget it, when the time comes, this will have little to nothing to do with me, anyway. I might as well reap some benefits now and worry about the trouble that might come later.'

Sael took a deep breath.

”Alright, here you both go.”

Aina and Leonel started as they caught two glistening pieces of metal out of the air. When they flipped over their palms, they found that these metal pieces were actually two rings.

Leonel looked down in confusion. ”Spatial ring? What's this?”

”These rings have everything you need to be officially inducted as one of our members. Our uniforms and your identification tokens are all in there.

”But, I should tell you that until you've gone to our headquarters with your tokens and have been properly registered, they are blank. So, make sure to keep them safe until the time comes.”

Leonel was stunned. He sent his senses into the ring and as expected, he found everything Sael spoke about.

There were a pair of harem pants, a cloth that he assumed could work as the belt those three wore, and a heavy piece of neckwear also reminiscent of what those three wore.

The only difference was that the belt cloth he received didn't have the embroidery those three had. In addition, his neckwear was a solid black that almost look like unpolished iron.

But…

Wasn't there supposed to be a long trial?

He half expected that he would have to put his life on the line several times just to get an invite to this organization… all for them to piss him off for some reason or another in a few months to eventually force him to leave them.

That seemed to be the story of his life to now. Struggling just to earn some more struggling.

He had never been expected to so suddenly be handed what all those geniuses of Terrain were fighting tooth and nail for…

What the hell was going on?
