Cale smiled back awkwardly and Rok Soo did not want to see Toonka's smiling face. However, Amiru calmly started to explain.

"Bob is from the Whipper Kingdom. He is from a small seaside village and went out to fish when somehow he ended up shipwrecked."

"That is correct. I just live a simple life fishing by the village. Hahahaha. I do not know how I ended up like this."

'A simple life my ass.'

It was unbelievable. Amiru did not know about Rok Soo's thoughts, as she focused onto Cale and continued to speak.

"That was why he got on a boat and helped us investigate what happened last night."

Amiru's eyes were clear as she looked at Toonka. However, when Cale looked around, there were many negative gazes toward Toonka as well.

A villager from the Whipper Kingdom. Their gazes showed their true feelings about this barbarian. Cale took a quick glance around before making eye contact with Toonka. Toonka started to smile.

"I heard that Young Master-nim created a large dome in the capital in order to save everyone. I asked the Young Lady-nim to bring me with her because I heard that you were a strong person."

Toonka's eyes sharpened at that moment. Cale suddenly had an ominous feeling. Rok Soo and Jung Soo are internally shouting at Cale to get away from the crazy barbarian, Soo Hyuk frowned at what Toonka is implying. He had heard about him from both Rok Soo and Jung Soo.

Cale remained calm and responded with the following.

"That is why I am currently in recovery."

"...Recovery?"

"Yes. My body suffered from the strong backlash due to the the dome."

Amiru added on.

"Yes. Young Master Cale overused his power to save everyone. That is why he is touring our territory while he recovers."

Amiru was looking toward Cale with sympathy, admiration, and some other emotions, but Toonka was different.

"Ah, is that the case?"

He seemed to have lost all interest. He then looked at Cale from head to toe before looking away to Jung Soo and Soo Hyuk.

'...Rude.'

Rok Soo avoided Toonka's gaze, Jung Soo frowned when the barbarian started to look at their direction and Soo Hyuk continued to stare at Toonka with a frown on his face.

"Hm... this person reminds me of a certain someone."

Setsuna voiced out in Soo Hyuk's head. It caused the latter to be curious but he kept the frown on his face and continued to stare back at Toonka.

Sacrifice for others? A hero? Toonka was not interested in anything like that. All he cared about and obsessed over was strength. He was the type of person who ignored the people on his own side if they were weak, and even killed them if necessary. That was why he was called a tyrant.

"Then shall we go?"

Cale nodded at Amiru's question. He could then hear Toonka's mumbling from the side.
