It had been a few days, probably more than a month, and as Pearl learned that Lucas had returned to the Central Region due to the rumors, she rushed to go to Lucas's chambers. She missed him enough to rush to his place.
Pearl arrived at Lucas's chambers, and what she saw there was Lucas, physically present just like what the rumors said about his return.
"Lucas!" She rushed to his side and embraced him tightly. "I thought that you wouldn't come back again. I was afraid that you might have already ascended when I am still not strong."
Lucas scoffed and shook his head. "Do you think that I should just train you? I also have to train myself, you silly."
Pearl sweetly smiled and disconnected from her embrace. Then, she looked at him and said, "I already progressed in the training routine you left me, and guess what, I can now change my legs."
