Zegal clan barely managed to defeat the invasion.

They hurriedly repaired the Soul Circle and treated the wounded warriors.

And once again, Zegal Moon thanked Luke.

“If it wasn’t for your help, it would have turned out bad for us.”

“Not at all, what I did was very little.”

“Hahaha. You are too humble.”

When the two men were talking, a clear voice interfered with them.

“Brother, this is Soha.”

“Come in.”

As the door opened, a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties with black eyes and hair entered.

Zegal Soha, who had entered the room, blushed when her eyes met with Luke.

She bowed to Luke and then handed the scroll in her hand to Zegal Moon.

“We have counted the lives and the property damage that was caused by the invasion.”

“Oh my, good work. But what happened to the men who fled?”

At the question of Zegal Moon, she bit her lip and answered with a grunting expression, “We caught up with the men but couldn’t capture even a single one of them. Brother Do, who caught one, said that they were biting on some poison pills when they got caught.”

“And Earner?”

“We searched 10 km around the area, but there was no trace for us to follow.”

“Hmm, that is unfortunate. Did you collect the weapons?”

“Yes, the men are analyzing the weapons that were left behind.”

“You did well. We need to make sure to get revenge for the clan members who have died, but for the well-being of the Song empire, we need to reveal their true faces. We need to continue to work hard.”

“Yes. Trust me and leave the matter to me.”

After the conversation with Zegal Moon, Soha glanced at Luke.

‘For him to be this young, there isn’t much of an age difference between me and him.’

She thought that the man who defeated Earner would be a middle-aged man.

However, unlike that, the man was very young.

In addition, though he seemed young, the stern atmosphere around him made her heart pound.

“Is that all?”

“Ah, yes!”

Soha, who was brought back to reality by Zegal Moon’s words, stepped out of the room.

Zegal Moon could only smile with how his younger sibling was acting.

He guessed what had happened.

“She is a capable young lady.”

“Yes, the youngest sister in our family, those who don’t know think of her as my daughter. Hohoho.”

At the words of Zegal Moon, Luke nodded his head as if he understood.

If he hadn’t heard of their conversation, he too would have misunderstood their relationship.

“In fact, she is like my daughter. Since my parents and her parents passed away, I had to raise her.”

“Ah.”

“She is a smart and well-raised child but is stubborn, which is the only problem. I am reaching the age of a monk, but she says she doesn’t want to marry unless she likes someone.”

Saying that with a regretful tone, he looked at Luke.

“Is the grace married?”

“No, the retainers do ask me to…”

“Is that so…”

At those words, Zegal Moon smiled.

However, the one most delighted was Soha who was listening to their conversation from outside.

Her heart was pounding so hard.

‘At last, a partner for me has been sent!’
