Then, he responded to Clayton telepathically, "Will Yehria be here?" Clayton sipped his drink and replied, "I'm not sure. I know this is a setup against you.

Ylva raised her head and asked, "Who's that woman? She seems to be holding her ground well against Clayton, who is at the Yitro Daeclon Rank.

Adina's impulsive attack on Clayton did not anger him. Instead, he grew even more calm as if everything was unfolding according to his plans.
Suddenly, three purple-gold light rays appeared at James' table, two men and one woman. They held wine glasses and settled into the empty seats at his table.
James was unfazed by their company and continued to drink his Chaos Absinthe.
The three exchanged meaningful glances and smiles.
Suddenly, one of the elderly men twirled his sideburns and exclaimed, "I heard the mortal beings' Chosen One was remarkably brave and lawless.
