With a menacing look, the woman stared at Wain as she waited for his answer while holding her arms crossed.

"Well, I haven't actually met Luar in the last few months, but I have his coin, which means I'm someone he trusts, don't I?" Wain said as he shook his hand.

"Maybe you're right, but I don't trust you. Mr. Luar put me in charge of this area, so if you want to pass on, say your name!" The woman uttered as her flame intensified.

Wain sighed, shook his head, then looked at her. His calm gaze changed sharply to a cold and cruel one that literally pierced her, making her shudder as the shivers ran down her body.

"Don't get cocky. You are only his assistant, you have no right to tell another owner of Void what to do!" Wain uttered in a thunderous voice as he released his aura that made the space beside him warp.

'What a powerful aura... Could he be right? He has a pass... But, what if I'm wrong?' The woman inwardly muttered as she frowned.

After a while, she waved her hand, and all the knights put their spears away, then disappeared behind the trees.

"Okay, I hear you." The woman nodded, "I will guide you to Mr. Luar, but if you do anything wrong, I will attack you immediately."

"Huh, as if you could even scratch me." Wain smirked in a mocking manner, "But, it's a good thing you're smart enough to make that decision. I'd hate to start a meeting with Luar with your head in my hand."

"Bastard..." The woman muttered before waving her hand.

At her signal, a massive chariot flew toward her, soaring in two streams of golden flame. She opened the door, bent slightly, and said, "Please come in."

"Zero, go ahead. We're finally being treated the way we should have been from the beginning." Wain uttered while stepping forward.

"Yes!" Zero nodded as she followed him.

The chariot moved out of the way as it headed north of the golden forest. They gradually approached a massive mountain from which a massive pantheon-like structure was protruding with carved columns and various statues.

'Luar... He certainly knows a lot about luxury, but isn't that a bit much?' Wain muttered inwardly.

Whoooooosh.

The chariot stopped at the entrance to the pantheon as Wain, Zero, and the woman emerged from it.historical

"Follow me. We're almost there, this is where you can meet Mr. Luar." The woman said as he pointed forward.

"Great. I'll finally get to see him." Wain smiled as he approached the gate.

The woman poured her energy into the gate as it slowly opened. At the same time, a powerful aroma that Wain knew very well burst out, it was the smell of one of the most popular drinks in the world.

"Huh, honestly, I was worried that Luar had changed a lot, but it looks like I was completely wrong. Ahahahahaha!" Wain laughed.

Inside the pompous building was an amazing scene. Two men sat at a long marble table and drank wine from bottles as there were already hundreds of empty ones on the table.

They simultaneously looked toward the entrance as their jaws practically dropped to the ground.

"Wain?" Luar and Reto exclaimed with dazed looks while in disbelief.

"Yeah. That's me. You two drunks, why the fuck was it so hard for me to get to you?" Wain said with a smirk on his face as he stepped forward.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I didn't know you two knew each other so well..." The woman mouthed in a guilty manner.

"Ah, Linda... Now I see what that powerful aura burst was." Luar said in a careless manner, "Don't worry, it's okay. Wain can't be stopped. One time he just stormed into my office and beat me up. Ahahahahahahaha! Those were the days."

"In that case, I won't get in your way." Linda uttered, bowed, and left the room.

Tsk.

Wain pulled back his chair, tossed a dozen empty bottles off the table that shattered into small shards, and sat down across from Luar.

"I couldn't figure out what was going on here, but now I do." Wain said while looking at Linda that walking away, "You have a real talent for finding strong women that will do all the work for you."

"Hey, she's just my assistant, and originally she was a wild monster, I put a lot of effort into getting her to that level." Luar waved his hand as he grabbed a bottle of wine, "What's more, this is coming from someone who doesn't watch his Void at all. If it weren't for Elegan, your zone would be gone by now."

"Huh, you're damn right." Wain smirked.

Luar took a sip, looked at Zero, and said, "You here too? Long time no see, have a seat, you're always welcome."

Zero nodded as she sat down next to Wain.

"Wain, what brings you here? Did you really come here for me?" Reto asked with a sly smile on his face.

"No, though you should go back to Void, a lot of interesting things happened there while you were drinking here." Wain muttered while looking at the bottles.

"Yeah... You're right." Reto nodded as he put his hands behind his head in a careless manner, "Even for me, drinking that much wine is too much..."

"So... you came for me, right?" Luar muttered while shaking the bottle from side to side with his finger.

"I am." Wain nodded.

"I see. I'd like to think you just wanted to see me, but you definitely want something from me, isn't it?" Luar smirked as he rested his head on his hand.

"Yes. I haven't been to Last Light in a long time, so it's time for me to return. I don't feel like running thousands of miles for it, so I hope you can help me with that." Wain said as he waved his hand.

"Sure. How can I help you?" Luar uttered.
