Book 2: Chapter 45
「You’ve grown bigger. It’s only natural since it has been four years.」
「…Dante-san.」
Dante-san patted my head, as we stood in front of Ouroboros’ skeleton.
「Reiji-kun!」
Mimino-san ran up to me from the side, and jumped me with a hug. Even though I have grown taller, it was only slightly more than Mimino-san.
「I’ve been searching for you for so, so, so long!」
「S-Sorry… I had to leave due to circumstances.」
I left Silver Balance without explaining anything. Of course I didn’t want to be ungrateful for all the kindness they’ve shown me, but at that time I just had to do that… to protect Lark.
Considering how much a 6-star skill orb is valued in the Kruvan Holy Kingdom, Lark’s【Shadow King】would have been just as invaluable in the Keith Gran Federation.
