Rui was glad to reconnect with old friends of the Master Realm.
Especially now that he could speak to them as equals standing on the same stage.
In the past, the difference in their Realms made it so that their relationship was lopsided.
But now, however, he was finally their equal.
"I'm sure you have one hell of a story to tell," Master Ceeran eyed him curiously.
Rui smiled wryly. "I do. Unfortunately, it's not something I can spend time narrating at the moment. I am preoccupied with many extremely important matters that require my urgent attention."
There were so many things that he needed to deal with that it wasn't even funny.
By now, word of his breakthrough to the Master Realm would undoubtedly be passing around the highest echelons of the Kandrian Empire. However, his return was still a secret to the rest of the world since only the Master and Sage Council were aware of his deception.
