“Young Master, you ht, Gilly Let’s go”
The two of them descended to the Storm Castle’s courtyard
Under the constant downpour, the knights who had co in silence
One 7-star guardian knight, and five 6-star guardian knights They were all part of the Runcandel’srelieved smiles as they would finally be distanced from their devilish brother
“Elder brothers”
“Ah, yeah, Jin”
“H-Hey”
As Jin spoke to therin, his brothers tensed up
“Why are you so surprised? I’m just here to see you off”
“Thanks…”
“Thanks… Jin!”
“I guess I won’t be seeing you for another two years That’s too bad, isn’t it?”
Despite not agreeing with him, the Tona twins furiously nodded their heads
After patting them on the shoulders, Jin then turned to Emma
“Stay safe too, Nanny E Master”
“Could you bend down for a bit?”
Emma lowered herself to match Jin’s eye level He then approached her ear and whispered
‘Emma I hope you act with a bit more caution at the main house’
As soon as her brain processed thebehind his words, Emma’s face paled into a deathly white hue
When she realized that this 8-year-old child had fully noticed her actions and hidden intentions, a jolting chill ran down her spine
Her throat squeezed up, and she couldn’t respond to him Nevertheless, Emma so to conceal her tre Master Jin, I shall aith inified appearance in 2 years!”
“Very well”
The knights raised their swords to salute Jin before departing
They then got on the carriage waiting at the bottom of Mt Murakan and headed to the Runcandel main house, the ‘Garden of Swords’
Jin would also head there in another 2 years
“Blasted kid! Explain yourself already An explanation that I can understand”
The Storround area
Murakan expressed his frustrations to Jin as he grabbed the basket Jin had brought The 8-year-old boy lightly brushed off his words and moved to the shelf
“Ho can this be… Why is there only one strawberry pie in the basket? Are you looking down on the Great Murakan?”
Murakan was angry… because of a strawberry pie
“Ah, geez Be thankful you at least have one pie I had to save soon would feel full frole ons could become furious because of strawberry pies… but now I do’
The ‘strawberry pie’ was the first gourmet food Murakan had eaten in a thousand years
It was also the only food that could satiate his storound chamber since he was still ‘trapped down here’
“Don’t you feel full even without food thanks to h with that nonsense of yours”
“You… you heartless brat! Don’t you know that dragons are very picky gourmets? And not only am I unable to leave this stuffy place because of your circuive me extra strawberry pies?”
Murakan hadn’t left the underground cha
It was all for Jin He needed to hide his connection with Murakan until he was strong enough, and Murakan also believed that was the correct choice
The underground cha-bearers’
If the clan learned that Jin had been sneaking down here in order to copy the secret tomes, Cyron would most probably ask Murakan to take responsibility as well—even if he were the clan’s guardian deity who had awoken from a thousand-year slumber
