Chapter 143 How Is She? 2 (1/2)
”Hmmm?”
Ulima felt that the conversation suddenly took a weird turn. And he didn't know why but there was a sudden change in the atmosphere around him that was truly frightening.
Meanwhile, the gears in Raghnall's mind began to turn.
”Well, a bruise like that is no big deal. But, is that all you want to ask from someone great such as myself?”
Ulima scrunched up his eyebrows in confusion.
Does this kiddo know who he's talking to?
”This isn't the right time to joke around, boy. Why don't you just start and get it over with?”
Raghnall sighed in dismay as he clicked his tongue.
”Tsk, tsk, tsk. Well, I'll do it in one condition.”
”It seems that you do not know the mechanics of this exchange, my boy. She asked something from me, a Veteran Mage and in return, she promised for someone to heal me. Now that I've granted what she wanted, it's time for her to grant hers through you. So, you do not have any right to ask me anything more.”
Raghnall chuckled softly.
”Well, I wasn't only talking about healing your eye…”
Ulima furrowed his brows, utterly confused about where the conversation is going. But Raghnall just smirked wider when he saw the growing confusion on Ulima's face.
”You see. I can heal your eye. But any injuries after healing you… well, I can't heal those anymore, now can I?”
Ulima finally figured out the meaning behind the conversation and he was astounded of this boy's audacity.
”Are you threatening me, boy?”
Raghnall's eyes shone with amusement as he chuckled.
”It is not a threat. Just a mere clarification.”
Ulima scoffed at the innocent act Raghnall was using.
”Hah, I didn't live for decades for me not to know what a threat is.”
He straightened up as he looked at Raghnall straight in the eye.
”And what makes you think that you can actually harm someone like me?”
Raghnall smiled widely as he casted a spell. And Ulima couldn't help but stiffen up when he saw him do it. But when he heard the spell, he immediately recognized it and relaxed.
It was a mere harmless telepathy spell.
Ulima scoffed at himself for being slightly afraid of what this little boy would do.
'That's it?'
He sent the thought through the spell, not hiding the smugness in his tone.
Raghnall shook his head and laughed slightly.
'Why are you doing this, my boy? You do know that once you lay a hand on a teacher, I have the right to retaliate given the situation. Only a fool would spontaneously pick a fight with a teacher.'
Raghnall leaned back on the chair, showing a relaxed expression.
'It's because you see, I have a very dear friend that's been cheated. I felt like she didn't get the best out of the deal, so I decided to do it for her.'
Raghnall shrugged nonchalantly as he continued sending his thoughts.
'And besides, you can't harm me.'
