Arrival

[Stormbreak Bay, Base of Mystic Circle]

"Are they still not here?"

Outside a makeshift tent constructed from enchanted silk, reinforced wooden beams, and shimmering arcane wards that looked flimsy no matter how you looked, a youth stood outside asking a middle-aged Knight in full body armour in annoyance.

"Not yet. But Lord Yela has already gotten the signal. They should arrive soon."

Hearing the annoyance of the tall youth with red hair, adorned in an impressive wizard robe and holding a beautiful staff as if ready to cast a spell at any moment, the knight bowed slightly and answered.

"They better be. Tch... I don't know why that guy had to return so early. I was doing fine on my actual mission, and now I had to complete this one out of nowhere."

The youngster complained in anger,

"Just my luck... ugh... had to be nearby at this time, I had no choice but to divert and take care of it."
