Returning to Red Maple City, Su Ya and Peng Yan let out a slight sigh of relief.
After all, being constantly pursued by the Turin People had been a nerve-wracking experience.
Pei Ze, on the other hand, wasn't worried at all. After boarding his three giant eagles at a shop specializing in avian creatures near the city gate, he led the other two toward the mission hall.
The mission hall was as crowded as ever.
Pei Ze had Su Ya and Peng Yan wait at the entrance while he cut through the crowd and walked toward an empty counter.
In a corner, a few Wizards were discussing something. One of them caught a glimpse of Pei Ze out of the corner of his eye and let out a soft "Huh?"
"Pei Ze is back!"
His companions all turned to look, their faces showing astonishment when they saw it was indeed Pei Ze.
"How is that guy back already?"
The speaker was a Wizard with dark red eyes—the very same one who had mocked Pei Ze for overestimating himself just that morning.
