"Hey, you, apprentice. Can I talk with you for a second?"
Ian heard a tough but low voice from right beside Yela, causing him to turn around, only to see Zane's figure.
"Hehe... well, this is surprising. Why? Does Wizard Zane also want to recruit Ian because of his talent?"
Seeing him suddenly appear, not only Ian but Yela was also surprised. After all, this guy was almost on the verge of fighting Ian before.
However, she didn't find his appearance here too strange, as a young, talented Potionist was indeed a good investment target.
"It is none of your business."
Hearing the sarcasm from Yela, Zane replied stoically and then turned to Ian.
"Can we talk alone for a while? I don't want someone to eavesdrop on our conversation."
Although his voice was still rough and cold, one could notice that he wasn't ordering Ian like before.
"Sure! Let's go over there then."
Ian agreed and pointed at the empty edge ahead before turning to Aura and Lyra.
