“Wait, before that” She pointed out “Did you clean up properly?”

“Of course If you don’t believe me, check for yourself”

“It’s better to be sure I’ll just double-check”

Skaya re-entered the Dungeon and returned about five minutes later She looked at Seo Jun-Ho proudly “You did well, child Your master is moved”

“I had always been a quick learner—that’s the key to being powerful”

“As your reward, I’ll clean up here” She clapped lightly, perfectly erasing their traces froeon’s entrance

eon door closed one last tiuestroom in Denver

“Now, talk,” Skaya said in a low voice, taking a seat

“Well… Let an to explain After about ten h the information and eventually spoke

“In other words, each Squadron has a different goal?”

“Yeah wang-Heon was part of the Pride Squadron, but he didn’t know much about the demon jade,” he said

“Then, which Squadron is experi with it?” Skaya asked

“I don’t know We won’t know until we interrogate a fiend from another Squadron”

“Do you knohere they are?”

Seo Jun-Ho unfurled a map of the Frontier continent and pointed at a spot

“Port Lane? It’s a coastal city”

“Yeah In two months’ time, the entire Pride Squadron will meet here for a combined mission”

“A co as a group, this had to be big

Seo Jun-Ho nodded, reading her onna bewith the other Squadrons as well”

“ together,” she noted

“We’re not gonna be hunting a small number of fiends” There would at least be dozens of Squadron-affiliated fiends “And if we’re lucky… We et to see a Squadron Leader”

“But will you be alright?” Skaya asked carefully, not wanting to offend hiic stats because of me Will you be able to handle them?”

“I’ll have to recover by then So, it’s probably gonna be a while until I free another one of our teammates,” he said

Seo Jun-Ho still yearned to free his friends, but they were getting closer to the fiends, and he needed to get stronger to keep up

‘Even if I free one of them, they’ll need at least a month to be of ih the Curse of Bitter Cold would disappear after a ic stat, so Seo Jun-Ho himself wouldn’t be of much help in the near future afterward

Thus, he made a decision

“I’ll have to reach at least 250 for ic stat if I want to free one of them This way, both of us can be of help”

“That doesn’t seem too far off,” Skaya coht now And Frontier is still full of opportunities” Based on how fast he was currently raising his h time for hiet restless too? I’ fiends”

“To be honest, yeah You’re like the protagonist of a superhero movie, while I’m more like the lead policeman” She was like the police creould only come to deal with the aftermath of a disaster Seo Jun-Ho could sense that she was a little annoyed by that Well, it er than him, yet she couldn’t do as much

“Don’t worry That’s why this mission is for you The battle at Port Lane will be more intense than you expect”

“My my, how did you know that’s what I wanted?”

Woosh Bzzt Shwoo Crack

“Yeah He said there was so he wanted to check and wanted to o?”

“I plan to You toldabout the other Nine Heavens, right?” Skaya asked

“I don’t” Seo Jun-Ho nodded

“So, I’ll go check To see if they’re strong, I er than me”

“H-Hyun was a powerful Player, but he had heard from many people that the man acted like a businessman

‘And so does Skaya People with si really intense psychological battles’ </e of an old hero and one of the Nine Heavens, a present-day hero Things would probably get heated

“Do you want me to come with you?” he asked carefully

Skaya instantly rejected hi you with me, it’ll be more suspicious”

“True…”

“I’m not a musclehead like Rahonna talk That’s all” She stood and spoke again, “In two et ready, too I’ll text you if I find out anything froood Stay safe”

At thatin Seo Jun-Ho’s ears He quickly checked it, finding a e…?’ </e Ju-Ha?
