Krune received Lani's staff back, which had been split in half. Although it was broken, he could still use its material for the new one. After that, he went ahead and reforged it for Lani.

"I got that trade route you asked, so we're even now."

Jojle nodded with a smile.

"Sorry for troubling you, Senior Phantom Blade. I already prepared a banquet for you. Please come with me."

Tixan shook his head in response.

Jojle was taken aback as he responded.

"Le-leaving?! Where? Was there something that you disliked here? I can definitely fix it up for you."

Tixan shook his head as he said.
