"Are you an illusionist wizard, sir?" Luolun asked curiously.
After asking, Luolun saw that Angel remained silent for a long while and suddenly realized something. He hurriedly added, "I wasn't trying to pry into your information. It was merely an instinctive question."
"Forgive my presumption. I should have introduced myself first." Luolun rose to his feet and gave a bow. "I imagine you already know my name. I am Luolun, from the Southern Wizarding World. Strictly speaking, I am a rather unqualified summoning wizard."
Upon hearing this, Angel raised his brow slightly. A glimmer flashed through his eyes, and his tone unconsciously grew somewhat lighter. "Angel, from the Savage Cave of the Southern Region. A mysterious-side illusionist wizard. I truly didn't expect to meet a friend from the Southern Region here."
Though his words retained their usual composure, they faintly revealed the delight of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
This surprise at being "from the same Southern Region" somehow infected Luolun as well. His gaze toward Angel unconsciously gained a little warmth, and the slight sense of Detachment born from their first meeting quietly faded.
"So you're from the Savage Cave?"
Angel asked, "You know of it, sir?"
Luolun smiled and nodded. "Of course. The Savage Cave is one of the largest organizations in the Southern Region. How could I not know it? I even dealt with its leader before—that wizard..."
Luolun stopped halfway through, suddenly at a loss for words. His brow gradually furrowed.
"Huh, what was that wizard's name...?"
He muttered softly, his eyes slowly growing vacant.
After a moment, Luolun looked at Angel with a blank expression. "Sorry, I've forgotten much of my memory. I..."
"You should mean Wizard Rhein. He is currently the leader of the Savage Cave," Angel supplied.
Rhein? Luolun thought
