Jiang Ze left the chaotic scene behind and wandered somewhat aimlessly through the mountains. Perhaps his luck was just that rotten, because in the latter half of the night, it even started raining.
"Tsk, this rain really picked the worst time. I wonder if that fire I set has burned itself out yet."

Tsk, that kid really doesn't give me a moment's peace.
