Chapter 297

Everyone got into the car. Ray glanced at Eric standing to the side and walked over to him slowly. "Have all your injuries healed?" It had been a long time since Eric had heard that raspy, moky voice Eric, with his hands in his pockets, gave Ray a quick glance, "Yeah, how about you?"

"Tough as ever... Ray said and laughed, pulling out two bags of candy from his jacket pocket and tossing them to Eric "I got these on a mission in Dawnshire recently, as I promised you"

It was the candy Eric'd tasted before, with wrappers featuring foreign language packaging. Eric stared at the two large, crumpled candy bags shoved into his hands, momentarily lost in thought. One of the bags was labeled "sugar-free." Eating them shouldn't cause a toothache.

Noticing Eric's daze and lack of excitement, Ray felt a bit embarrassed. "What? Not enough? I wanted to get you more, but too much would be hard to carry. Next time, next time I'll get you more."

Eric looked up at the bearded man in front of him. A mix of complex emotions flickered in his eyes, which were like obsidian. "Than... thank you, Ray."

"Hey, it's been over a month and now you're acting all formal with me? It's nothing! We're partners." Ray said as he wrapped an arm around Eric's shoulder, wanting to give him a hearty slap but held back a bit, realizing he was too young. Ray said, "Let's go, hop in."

Three cars rolled up to the airport. Ophelia was curious about who they were picking up, and as soon as they reached the airport exit, she saw a tall man with long legs waiting.

He wore light casual pants and a blue and white checkered short-sleeved shirt, with sunglasses on, looking like he was ready for a vacation.

He was holding a silver-gray suitcase in one hand, with a larger, square metal case about knee-height at his feet.

Just by looking at his sunglasses and outfit, it was clear he was Ronin.

When he saw them, Ronin took off his sunglasses, revealing his short brown curls and amber eyes, smiling and greeting them warmly, "Hey, we meet again."

Ophelia curled her lips into a polite smile at him. That smile made Ronin feel a bit guilty.
