The Cure

After they have paid their respect, they both raise up before waiting for the grand elder to speak.

The grand elder didn't say anything as he just stood on the roof with his hand placed behind his back as he said while looking at Jason.

"I never thought you will be coming this early".

"That is what I also thought but here I am" replied Jason with a chuckle.

Seeing the two having a conversation as if they knew each other, Austin couldn't help but turn to look at the grand elder before turning his gaze back at the stranger.

"For you to come back is either you have achieved a breakthrough into the foundation realm since you can stand your ground against Austin" said the grand elder. 

When Austin heard what the grand elder was saying, he suddenly thought of one person who would be so bold as to come to the refining room to cause trouble. 

"I could've thought that I recognize that voice" thought Austin as he stare at Jason attentively.
