Alberu began to express his gratitude, but Cale interrupted with a smirk, "Hold on, I'm not done. Who said I'm doing this for free?" His words elicited a sigh from his daughter, Ohn.......

They set off for their journey, they decided to take a day of rest first because the kids wanted to know more about the human's way of living

The heroes noticed that both Cale and Raon didn't trust humans that much, they still didn't know the reason, but are hoping to know for the future

Cale changed his form hiding his majestic feathered wings along with the horns. The children all are in their human form

They were currently on their way out of the Forest of Darkness, surprisingly the things Cale asked for weren't that hard either, he asked for four things

First he asked them to hide his identity, if possible hide is whole existence along with the children, he didn't want any of the people knowing about them

Second, he asked to make sure that they wouldn't bother him after the war with anything entangled with a
' headache ' as he said it

Third, the children. He made it clear that if anything was to happen for the children they would have to consider the deal shattered. He also said that if they were the ones that inflicted the harm, their existence would be forgotten

Fourth, and last but not least, and obviously, MONEY. It was something that none of them had expected, after all, who would think that such an awesome being would be obsessed with money!! Cale asked for two golden plaques for every plan he would make, along with some magic stones, seemingly for Raon.

Currently on their way to the Henituse territory to spend the day, the children were with Mary, Tasha and Pendrick, they seemed to be having fun. Eruhaben caught up to Cale and started a conversation, it brought the attention of the others left in the group as they gathered around the two.

" So, Unlucky Bastard. What's up with the little one's trust issue with the humans? " Eruhaben asked, curiously, this old man is starting to warm up for this specific dragon along with Cale, so he is trying to know them better

Cale who seemed to start trusting Eruhaben, looked up at the slightly taller being next to him cautiously before sighing " Ahh~ I knew this would be coming soon " he muttered to himself but everyone heard him clearly

" Why Cale-nim? Is there something wrong? " Asked Choi han with his newly found puppy like personality

Cale glanced at the people surrounding him before saying" Raon was tortured by some filthy humans " Cale said seemingly frustrated

Gasps were heard around him

" Who would do something like that for such a high being? " Asked Rosalyn after she left the children getting interested with the conversation

" Where are they? " Asked an angry ancient dragon

" Where did it happen? " Asked Alberu

" In your kingdom " replied Cale, his voice holding slight mockery " I don't blame you though, it's obviously your father's fault, an old hag thinking he owns the world not giving a fu*k only busy in throwing his responsibilities towards his son " Cale said, he seemed to really hate King Zed "What a human for real? "

Alberu was taken aback but couldn't help but to agree

" Who did it? " Asked Eruhaben, as if searching for his prey

" It was a noble, his name I think was Vinion Sten" Cale said wondering

" We should pay him a visit " said Eruhaben darkly

" I already did, I mean there is a reason for a person to suddenly become mentally ill, saying some nonsense. You know " Cale said seemingly proud of himself

Not long ago, a rumor about the young master Vinion Sten spread between the nobles, it said that he had lost his mind, blabbering some nonsense about someone who tortured him, a dragon, fog, poison and so on. It was confirmed to be true though, he never showed up in public again and nobody knows what happened to him. At the same time, his older brother Taylor Sten, magically healed his legs and rose up to be the hier. Nobody even Cage knew how, all Taylor told her is that someone helped him and gave him information and that he made a deal not to say a word about him. Not long after Vinion was out to jail after charging him with many things with their evidence.

" What did you do to him? " Asked Cage gulping nervously " Were you the one who helped Taylor?" She continued

" Ah Taylor, indeed. He is one of the few nobles who lives up to his name as a noble " Cale answered before continuing " And Vinion? " He asked as if mocking before chuckling darkly

Suddenly nobody wanted to know what happened to him

" What did you do to him? " Asked Beacrox, the torture expert, seemingly interested. Gaining looks from the others as if saying ' YOU CRAZY MOTHE*RFUCK*R??! ' which he brushed off easily obviously not interested

" Yeah, say it " pressed on Eruhaben

" You know, it would be unfair to kill him and end his pain easily " Cale said as if stating an obvious fact " So all I did was torturing him in the most painful way, until he would be on the verge of death, will I let him die? Tsk, obviously not duh! I would give him a potion to heal him, let him go to a room with no evidence of torture making him think that he was dreaming, then Raon would appear infront him like a nightmare, I repeated the process until Raon was satisfied. " He finished looking proud " I wanted to continue though, but what can I do? " He said shrugging his shoulder looking disappointed

Beacrox, Ron and Eruhaben seemed to be looking at him proud.

' What's wrong with those people? ' thought the rest of the group, who were terrified by what they heard, some of them about to pass out

' As expected of Phoenix-nim ' thought Tasha and Pendrick, who heard the story while staying with the children. While crying internally ' Tears Of Admiration '

" Ahh, what a shame, I should have did even more...." Cale said mumbling to himself
