Chapter 474: Regrets and Whispers_2

"I swore to my father that unless I became a legend of a mage renowned around the world, I would absolutely not return to Caselo."

Jadka sighed with a rueful smile and shook his head, "The result was that I couldn't even meet them once before they both passed away, ha, I've turned into this sorry state, I've already become a joke in the family, how could I face going back?"

Dabus patted the old man's shoulder, "You're just thinking too much."

"Let's not talk about whether I'm thinking too much..."

Motan looked at Jadka's troubled old face and smiled, "Changed your mind?"

The old mage stood by the window, hands behind his back, and looked wistfully northward, "I wouldn't say I've changed my mind. It's just that after talking with Dabus a while ago, I did realize that I might be obsessing over trifles. After all, most of my elders and most of my peers are gone, and the kids in charge now... Sigh, they are actually good kids, it's just me who can't get over my own issues."
