Chapter 605 Departure To Another Land

Chapter 605 Departure To Another Land

Kara Verte was a commercial genius.

Ater had already told Rey that much as one of the observations he made when he was overseeing the Reaper Group in his Master's absence. He considered her bright in business, and Rey could now see how and why.

'She could help us procure a deal with the Elves, or even handle the whole Natural Resource issue that we are going to their Land to solve.'

All in all, she was a vital addition to the team.

'Ater could do all of that, but since he won't be with me, this is the best alternative...'

"Good to have you on the team, Kara." Rey nodded at her.

She nodded at him, a sheepish smile on her cute face. Both in terms of looks and intellect, she seemed to be pretty outstanding.

"Thank you! I'm glad to be here!"

Rey noticedthat Esme had joined Belle in her look of compressed annoyance, and he was further confused on the matter.

They both seemed to shoot Kara a slightly distasteful scowl, though Belle's seemed a lot more obvious. Also, she kept alternating between Ater and the girl in glasses, which showed her as being slightly possessive of Ater.

Perhaps even jealous as a result of the compliments he showered on Kara.

'I can understand that from Belle, since she's a little crazy, but what's Esme's deal?' Rey wondered.

Did she still hold some sort of bias towards Kara due to her family's past? He didn't think so.

'Then, maybe she saw something on her Status Window?'

Rey had already checked, and it seemed pretty normal. Still, he decided to observe it once more—this time with a more open mind.

[STATUS WINDOW]

- Name: Kara Verte.

- Race: Human - Class: Business Diplomat (C-Tier)

"H-hold on, don't you have a girlfriend?"

"W-well... that is that, this is this. Besides, whatever happens in H'Trae stays in—ow!"

"Bye, Rey! Bring me souvenirs!"

"Sir Rey, please take care of yourself and Lady Kara!"

"Farewell, Master! You can count on me always! Please take care of yourself, and make sure to call me once you arrive! Please ensure to..."

Ater went on and on, almost like a doting parent. Rey almost felt embarrassed, but his suppressed feelings were able to save him the embarrassment he would have suffered if he could feel every single emotion.

His cheeks felt a little warm as he got so many farewells from his friends and allies. Even Justin's farwell felt strangely genuine despite all he knew about him.

'Thanks everyone...' His thoughts flowed as he stared at both Esme and Kara, who were right beside him. Emil was also with him, which meant he had three allies with him on this adventure.

"Shall we?"

As soon as he asked them, and they were about to respond, the doors of the Main Palace doors flung open, and someone yelled as she approached from the building's far distance.

"REY, PLEASE RECONSIDER AND TAKE ME WITH YOUUUU!"

'L-Lucielle?!' Instantly recognizing the voice as the overenthusiastic Grand Mage, and seeing her very clearly thanks to his eyesight, Rey took a step back.

He noticed Brutus right behind her, looking as tired and disheveled as a warrior could possibly be. Rey wondered if they had some sort of fight so she could break loose of his hold, but he had no intentions to stay and find out.

"Maybe next time!" He responded back with a bright grin and finally transported himself and the two ladies beside him away from the Royal Court.

Before everything faded away, he could hear her scream echo in his ears.

"REYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

Laughter filled his lips as he held the two ladies tight as they appeared in the sky. In one swift motion, he sent himself gliding through the air and rushing towards the Eastern Beach—the first destination.

~VWUSH~

In another burst of Spatial Magic, they completely vanished from the sky, leaving only traces of Mana dancing as glitters amidst clouds.
