Preparation

"It does not sit well with me that you have to do everything. Even if it was you who destroyed the Tower's defensive array, this matter must still be resolved by us."

"Didn't you want to teach me a lesson because of what I did here? What are you saying now?" Kyran asked, looking at Sigma in doubt.

Sigma scowled, but he replied, "I'm done enacting your punishment. Your broken arm is proof."

Kyran raised his brows. He was about to comment that having his arm broken was a low price for what he did, but he stopped himself. He did not want to start an argument with this guy. And since he accepted the identity of Noir's disciple, he was not going to pretend to be friendly with the Blacksmith Order. He wanted to build a good relationship with them. After all, he would need their help once he started creating his own magic weapon.

But Sigma's sudden change made Kyran uneasy. As if the big guy was plotting something.
