'Rescuing Raon Miru'

[ "...A dragon?"

"Yes."

"I've seen something similar once."

'Similar, my ass.'

Cale knew what Choi Han was talking about when he said something similar.

Forest of Darkness. He was talking about the vicious monsters deep inside the Forest of Darkness. Among those terrifying monsters were creatures that were somewhere between lizards and dragons. ]

"Are you blind, Choi Han?"

"I didn't mean that, Raon."

[ Choi Han had killed that dragon-like monster as soon as he advanced from the middle stage to the final stage of his Dark Destruction Sword Art.

"You did? How was it?"

Cale pretended to not know about the event, and asked Choi Han. Choi Han was the only other person in Cale's room right now.

"...It was a monster." ]

"Strong Choi Han-"

"I am sorry, Raon."

Raon was having a blast teasing Choi Han. Rosalyn was not a good mentor for Raon, he was learning how to tease Choi Han.

[ "How so?"

"Its appearance, its strength, everything. It was a monster in all aspects."

"Is that so?"

Cale nodded his head and continued to speak. But his actions and his words were completely opposite.

"Then you have not seen a dragon."

"Excuse me?"

"Dragons are like people."

Clack. Cale put the cup with the lemonade that was both sweet and sour down on the table. He then responded to Choi Han, who was looking at him with curiosity.

"Dragons, Beast people, Dwarves, Elves, they are all like humans. Why? Because they also have emotions and lives." ]

"Cale, do you understand the significance of your words for the people you mentioned?"

"Hmmm," Cale looked back at Rok Soo, he didn't understand the question and answered, "Like humans, they are not so different. They bleed the same color blood, they can feel emotions and empathize with other species."

"Cale."

"So dense."

The people mentioned are ecstatic by Cale's response, they are treated fair and same in Cale's eyes. They weren't surprised about it, Cale always seemed to treat them the same but to hear it from him is like a gift to them.

[ That aspect wasn't important to Cale. His main point started from here.

"However."

Choi Han might have noticed Cale's sudden change in demeanor. He sat up straight and focused on what Cale had to say. ]

Following Choi Han's demeanor, they sat straight and watched the records. They had been following Cale's mannerisms and calming themselves down.

Cale was gently patting Raon's head and appeasing him.

[ "Such an existence has fallen into darkness since it was born. The only thing currently lighting up the darkness in its life is torches, and it has never even seen the light of the sun. What kind of life do you think it is having?"
