Chapter 387 - 379. For a Guaranteed Future
"It’s complicated..."
"Just like your relationship," Zein commented, to which Radia responded with a laugh.
Well, he could laugh now because things had been solved between them, and everything just felt silly now. But indeed, their relationship was a complicated one.
"So?"
Radia smiled and rummaged through his inside pocket, taking out a small box containing golden needles. But before he took out one, he looked at the host first. "Can I?"
The blue eyes stared at Radia wordlessly, and the summoner sighed, putting the box back. Except during the raid on House Horin where he needed to spend a lot of mana, he had been cutting back on it. But this time...he felt like he needed one just to calm his heart.
"Here, eat this instead," Han Shin pushed a small box of chocolates in front of Radia, who stared at it with narrowed eyes full of disapproval. "It’s eighty percent dark chocolate that I was going to give Hyung, but..."
"Well, in that case."
Zein and Bassena pressed their lips as they felt the corners of their mouths twitch. So people in love were the same everywhere, no matter how cold, calculating, or mighty they were.

"Alright," Bassena leaned forward, propping his elbow to the table after the tea had been served. "Hit us."
Radia wiped his fingers with wet wipes that one of his summons provided, staring blankly at the lake while he pondered where he needed to start. "Joon was sentenced for desertion."
