– How dare you not run out barefoot after hearing my voice?

A thuggish voice echoed in Cale’s mind.

– Wait right there. You need to be punished for waking this great and mighty Dragon’s slumber. Human. I will personally walk over to you, so you better wait right there.

‘Wow, he wants me to wait. He’s going to come find me.’

Cale couldn’t help but laugh louder and louder.

– Mm. I don’t know what is going on, but I will just watch what happens for now.

Cale nodded his head at Dodori’s mom’s majestic voice.

He was still laughing.

“W, why is he laughing like that?”

Toonka hesitated and stepped back after looking at the loudly laughing Cale as if he was looking at some alien life form. It was completely different from the energy with which he had walked in.

‘Cale Henituse is laughing so brightly?! He’s laughing like that in such a terrible situation?!’

Toonka had heard that Cale had just overcome a god’s test.

Although he probably needed a break after that, Cale Henituse had no time to rest because there was still a danger to the peace on the continent.

Toonka remembered what the Chief had told him.

‘Commander, a person who laughs while he is struggling is a true hero.’

“Ah.”

Toonka subconsciously gasped.

‘My close friend truly is a hero……!’

Toonka had no interest whatsoever in books, but his subordinates had done everything they could with the hopes that this complete idiot of a Commander would want to read.

Most of their plans had failed.

That changed when the Chief had nonchalantly handed Toonka a book.

< The world will see two beautiful wings when you see a silver light in front of your eyes. >

The book didn’t look like anything Toonka would be interested in. However, Toonka stayed up all night reading that book.

The book his Chief handed him was about Cale Henituse’s magnificent exploits in the Whipper Kingdom; it was written as a heroic tale of how he had saved the Whipper Kingdom.

Toonka started to walk toward Cale, who was laughing out loud in front of danger.

“I knew it! My close friend truly is amazing! Hahahaha!!”

He started to laugh out loud as well.

However, Queen Litana who was standing behind him could not see the laughing Cale the same way.

‘He’s become much paler since the first time I met him.’

Litana recalled when she first met young master Cale inside the cave in the foggy Oorim forest. He had not looked healthy at that point either, but he looked much healthier than he did now.

‘He’s laughing so happily because we are here even though he looks like that.’

Litana felt so upset about it that she almost teared up.

‘Why is it that young master Cale is trying to carry the heavy burden of achieving world peace?’

She was in charge of the Jungle.

That was hard enough for her, but this pale hero was trying to save the whole world.

Litana could not wipe the bitter smile off her face.

She felt as if she could only frown while looking at Cale if this bitter smile disappeared.

Alberu walked over to Toonka and Litana at that moment.

“You both got here very early.”

“Your highness! Your hiiiiiiighneeeeeeeeeess!”

Alberu suddenly heard his Chief of Staff’s urgent voice.

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing- Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing-

All of them in the room could hear the alarm going off around them.

‘…Intruders?’

This alarm was the alarm for when someone not allowed was trying to force their way in past the barrier.

“Your highness!”

“What’s going on?!”

Alberu urgently asked his Chief of Staff for details.

Litana and Toonka stiffened up as well. They were thinking about what it could be.

The different representatives of the Western continent were supposed to gather here soon.

The representatives of the Jungle and the Whipper Kingdom were already here.

Someone was trying to invade at such a time?

‘We must not let that happen!’

Alberu had kept today’s meeting a secret from most people on purpose. That was something they had to do.

Safety was the most important.

The Chief of Staff peeked toward Toonka and Litana before trying to whisper to Alberu.

“Just say it.”

He quickly started to speak after Alberu told him to do so.

“Your highness! A man is trying to barge in through the barrier in the northern sky right now!”

“What?”

‘Is it the White Star?’

The different representatives all had the same thought.

Someone grabbed Alberu’s arm at that moment.

“Your highness.”

It was Cale.

Alberu looked at Cale’s face that was completely stiff as if he had not been laughing at all just a few moments ago and flinched.

‘…Hmm?’

This stiff face…

He did not seem anxious nor angry.

‘…He looks annoyed?’

It was the look a person would have when something was annoying them.

‘…The corners of his lips are twitching as well?’

The corners of Cale’s lips were twitching even though he was tightly keeping his mouth shut to prevent himself from laughing.

He seemed to want to laugh because this annoying thing was still a good thing.

As for his smile…

This was the type of smile he had when Alberu gave him a golden plaque or when he made a ton of money.

‘This is weird.’

Cale whispered by his ear as Alberu thought that something was odd.

“There are three of THEM.”
