Looking down from the top of the mountain, one could see yesterday's battlefield. Han Jin's sword skill had destroyed hundreds of square meters of ancient trees. It was as if a girl with long hair had lost a circle of hair on her head. It was very conspicuous in the endless forest, but it was also a bit of a spoilsport.
Han Jin stood alone at the edge of the cliff, overlooking the forest. He wasn't reminiscing about his victory. If his master had released his sword technique, no one would have been able to survive within the range of the sword light. In fact, he had brought shame to his master!
Han Jin's thoughts drifted to somewhere else. Some things were fine if they weren't mentioned, but once they were touched, he would feel a heart-wrenching pain! Since yesterday, he hadn't been in a good mood.
On yesterday's battlefield, there were seven or eight small black dots moving around. They were all young magicians, collecting spoils of war. Although Han Jin and Yalina had released powerful spells and destroyed many things, it didn't mean that they couldn't find anything. In Morrisons' words, no matter how thin a rat's leg is, it's still meat.
"Raphael, what are you doing?" Léger asked as he slowly walked over.
"I'm a bit bored, so I'm staying here for a while." Han Jin's expression and tone were somewhat cold. At this moment, he just wanted to be quiet and didn't want to interact with anyone.
"Sunier wanted to come and see you, but she's a bit embarrassed." Léger acted as if he couldn't understand Han Jin's expression and changed the topic.
"Embarrassed?" Han Jin was stunned.
"She came to stand with you for a while this morning, and after she went back, she blushed for a long time." Léger smiled. "This place is too conspicuous. Everyone saw your every move in the morning."
"Oh." Han Jin's expression returned to indifference.
"Are you okay?" Léger couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I'm fine."
"You're fine, but I'm not!" Léger paused. "Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"
"Compensate? Compensate for what? "
"Raphael, don't play dumb with me!" Léger said angrily, "How dangerous was yesterday?! I've been following you, hoping to help you. Who would've thought … that you would cast that kind of magic! Fortunately, I noticed that your face had become very scary. I knew that something was wrong and hurriedly left the forest. Otherwise … otherwise, I would have died a heroic death yesterday! "
Han Jin's expression finally changed a little as he quietly looked at Léger.
"Not talking? Do you think it's over if you don't say anything? "Reg said angrily," Also, didn't we set up all kinds of hand signals? You knew that I would follow you, so why didn't you give me any hints? Am I that unimportant in your heart? Do I deserve to die?! "
If they were here to express their concern, Han Jin wouldn't have bothered with them. He missed his master, but Léger's accusation couldn't be avoided. He really was careless yesterday. At that moment, he had forgotten everything. He only knew how to vent his anger and couldn't care about anything else. If Léger didn't mention it, he wouldn't have realized that Léger was in danger.
"I …" Han Jin seemed to be struggling. "I'm sorry." At this moment, he didn't know what to say. Luckily, Léger was always very alert. Otherwise, he would've made a big mistake!
"Don't say these useless things." Léger curled his lips. "I want compensation!" Actually, Léger's goal wasn't to blame anyone, so he didn't continue with the 'why didn't you give hints' question.
"Then tell me, what do you want?" Han Jin smiled faintly. Perhaps it was because Léger was usually very calm and didn't have the experience of being unreasonable with others. He also couldn't be like Morrisons, so when Léger talked about the conditions and compensation, his expression was somewhat unnatural.
Thinking about Morrisons, Han Jin's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He thought that after Sunier, Morrisons would definitely come to persuade him. The two of them had known each other for the longest time, and their relationship was very deep. Even in the same team, there were differences in the depth of the relationship between members. In comparison, Léger was the most difficult person to talk to. Who would've thought that instead of Morrisons, Léger would come?
In the forest, Morrisons was sitting on a rock. His chin was resting on the hilt of his sword. His eyebrows were tightly knitted, as if he was thinking about something in life. If it was someone else, it would be fine, but it was Morrisons who was putting on airs. It was a bit ridiculous.
No matter what kind of team it was, every member had their own unique and irreplaceable life path. When the team moved forward together, their paths entangled with each other and extended forward. However, they would never completely merge together, because they had to be qualified to be themselves first before they could be qualified to be a qualified member. If they couldn't even be themselves, what could they do?!
Morrisons had been hiding here for a very long time. He also had his own pain and helplessness. In the battle yesterday, he was the only one who didn't do anything from the beginning to the end. Even the rookie magicians helped, but what did he do?! This was the second time he had tasted this feeling of powerlessness!
"Can you give me whatever I want?" Léger chuckled. Again, if it was Morrisons who laughed, it would be normal, but when he laughed, it felt slightly artificial.
However, for Han Jin, Léger's artificial smile brought him a trace of warmth. He turned to look at the sky and said lightly, "Tell me what you want. I will try my best to satisfy you, but if I can't do it, then don't blame me."
"Hey … What do you mean? If you can't do it, does that mean I've wasted an opportunity? "
At this moment, Yalina slowly walked up from below. Léger originally wanted to continue chatting with Han Jin, but when he saw Yalina, he shrugged and said, "Forget it, I'll talk to you tonight. Don't forget your promise!"
"Don't worry." Han Jin smiled.
Yalina stepped to the side lightly. Her eyes were fixed on Han Jin as if she couldn't see Léger at all. It wasn't just today; it was the same yesterday and the day before. Yalina could chat with Sunier, Sassoux, and even Morrisons, but she never pretended to be friendly with Léger. There was no other reason. As the saying goes, when the city gate is on fire, the fish in the moat will suffer. Who asked Léger to be a thief?!
"Why are you all here one by one? Is something the matter? "Han Jin asked slowly. Talking with Léger just now made him feel better. At least he was no longer immersed in the unchangeable past.
"It's because you're a little strange, so everyone is worried about you," Yalina said softly.
"Thank you."
Yalina looked Han Jin up and down. "Right, I have something to tell you. I talked with Edwina, and they happened to have an extra space scroll. I bought it, but … Edwina insisted that she didn't want money. Sunier is very close to her. How about this, I'll give you the gold coin, and you give it to Sunier. I don't want to take advantage of others."
"Why didn't you give it to Sunier?"
"I gave it to her, but she didn't want it. She said Edwina wouldn't accept it."
"Then forget it." Han Jin was very emotional. Once upon a time, he had to scheme for half a day just for a few silver coins. God knows how much wealth the Red Vanguard Mercenary Team had accumulated in the past. How generous of them to give away a space scroll for nothing! But then again, they weren't lacking in money. Dragon crystals, dragon scales, dragon horns, and dragon tendons — they could sell any one of them and make a lot of money.
"No, we have to find a way to make her accept it." Yalina's attitude was very firm.
Han Jin was secretly amused. With Sunier's relationship with the two elves, it would be strange if they accepted the money! He paused, then changed the topic. "Do you want to go back?"
"No." Yalina smiled. Yalina froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Besides … even if I want to go back, it's not up to me."
"Then who has the final say?" Han Jin asked subconsciously.
"You." Yalina nodded. "You're the leader of our mercenary team. Of course, you have the final say."
"Wait, did you say 'we'?" Han Jin looked at Yalina in surprise. "What do you mean?"
"I realized that I'm a very naive magician. Genius? Haha … "Yalina said in a self-deprecating tone." If it weren't for you, I would have died long ago. "
"This is what I should do. I can only say that you hired the right person."
"No, I'm too inexperienced. So I've decided to join your mercenary team." Yalina flipped the hair in front of her forehead. "I don't think you're stupid enough to refuse a magus joining, right? It's settled then! "
Han Jin was a little stunned. She obviously didn't mean what she said! If Han Jin was really the leader, how could it be settled without him saying anything?
"You're very lucky." Yalina seemed to be worried that Han Jin would continue to pester her, so she took the initiative to change the topic.
"Lucky? What are you talking about? "
"Of course it's Sunier."
"What's wrong with Sunier?" Han Jin became more and more confused.
"Sunier has Abraham and Doreen's divinity! Don't you know what this means? " Yalina looked at Han Jin in surprise. "Before you and Sunier fell in love, you didn't know anything about her?"
"Fell in love …" Han Jin was very embarrassed. Although there was nothing shameful about love, he couldn't always talk about it, right? Moreover, it was too strange to talk about love with another equally outstanding girl. Was this seduction? Or was it a discussion about life?
"It seems that you really don't know." The interest in Yalina's eyes became more and more intense.
"I don't know."
"In the beginning, what attracted you most about Sunier?" Yalina asked.
"Let's not talk about this, okay?" Han Jin felt like he was going to run away in defeat. Perhaps the cultural differences in the Chengxi Dynasty were too big. Han Jin really didn't want to talk about this with others, but Yalina's eyes were full of purity and longing, as if everything was normal.
