The old monk with a saggy face didn't have the slightest intention to mask his presence.

He walked across the pebble path and stopped before Kieran.

The monk looked up at Kieran with his morbid eyes before turning his attention to Tanya and Kana.

"Master."

Kana put away her arrogance and saluted respectfully, so did Tanya.

Tanya even saluted better than Kana but the old monk quickly dodged her salutation by moving aside.

"Gods shouldn't bow to mortals even if it is a thank you," the old monk spoke slowly.

"But mother told me I must remember everyone who helped me and never forget my manners," Tanya said seriously.

"Your mother…" the old monk opened his mouth but he failed to continue because Tanya seized the opportunity and saluted to the old monk.

"You are as persistent as your mother," the old monk laughed bitterly.
