"Hmm! While I'd like to say... every dream deserves respect, I'm afraid you're getting ahead of yourself if you think you'll reclaim your home anytime soon."
The members of the Kara Civilization, lost in melancholy, suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice behind them. They all whirled around in alarm. Had the Twin Stars discovered them?
But once they saw what was happening, they all froze.
The air a short distance away rippled, and a silver figure abruptly emerged. That wasn't the important part. What mattered was that the newcomer looked and dressed exactly like the two Mithril Knights standing nearby.
"Boss!" ×2
While everyone was still staring, the two Mithril Knights stepped forward and bowed to the newcomer with unmistakable respect.
Everyone looked at the mysterious visitor in surprise. Boss? Did that mean their leader?
The leader of the summoned creatures-could he be... an elite summoned creature?
"Hmm, you two did well. Thanks for all your hard work. I'll give you a nice big bonus at the end of the year!" Nie Yun nodded with a satisfied smile.
Ever since the three Mithril Knights had successfully rescued Rose from the Sea Race's decapitation strike, with Lao San even "sacrificing" himself to draw away the pursuers, Rose's guards had completely dropped their suspicions toward these "summoned creatures."
The Kara People had always drawn a clear line between good and evil. The guards soon came to regard Lao Da and his remaining companion as friends. With Rose's tacit approval, the two had even been given a tour of the Kara Civilization survivors' living quarters.
In a sense, the two had represented Earth in the first official cultural exchange between the civilizations.
Gathering military intelligence wasn't their primary objective. The war against the Twin Stars had already laid the Kara Civilization's military capabilities bare
