The elf still grabbed the sword, and then carefully took the badge with her empty hand, feeling very cold and without any lethality.

‘I’m glad to meet you, Ms. Wind Walker.’

A sentence echoed in her head. She was not scared by the sound. The speaker actually knew her name, and it was obviously what Ronin told him.

"Who are you?" Ranger asked.

'You should have heard my name. I am Crassus of Kenreto.'

Crasus? It turns out to be that mage.

"What a great honor, Mr. Kenry Tom, you have the same status as Prince Kelthas."

Then a while of silence passed.

‘I am sorry for what happened to Quelsellas.’

Sorry? Anger surged in Sylvanas's heart. Why is he sorry? Is all this related to him?

"Is that also you asked this mage to follow me? What's your purpose?"

‘I can’t tell you about this now, especially after Luo Ning told me your attitude towards the Red Dragon Clan.’

The elf sneered, thinking that this was a set of unconvincing words. "Then you admit it."

‘Roning was going to Grimbato. Your sister had completed the mission, and now you and that dwarf shouldn’t have appeared here. This is not part of the plan.’

"But your plan has put a person in danger, and now it is unclear whether he or she is alive or dead!"

Ronin, who was beside her, looked confused at this moment. Because he could not communicate with Crasus, he could only guess what he said and what questions Sylvanas answered.

‘Nathanos…is so lucky to be favored by the Windrunners’ family.’ Crassus replied.

"If he's alive," she said almost gritting her teeth.

‘Yes…if he is still alive, then we should think about how to save him.’

This answer surprised her a little. She didn't expect that this would be said from him. Why did he do this? This mage, especially as a member of Kenreto, would actually care about the life of a person he didn't want to do.

‘Silvanas Windrunner, listen to me. My original plan happened...a big mistake. And Nathanos's fate was one of them. You want to save him, right?’

"That's right."

‘Even in a place full of orcs? A place full of dragons?’

"Yes."

"Which one would you choose to kill the Red Dragon Queen or rescue Nathanos?"

"What?" Ranger was stunned. Why did he suddenly talk about this? Is there anything wrong with these two? Sylvanas didn't think that he had to give up another option after choosing one of them.

"For me, saving Nathanos is more important. However, I will not give up on the opportunity to take revenge."

Another silence. Ronin stood aside and was worried for Crasus. He knew that his guide was fighting for an allies that could absolutely cooperate with. Sylvanas was such an ally.

‘You are really like me, Wind Walker. And I hope everyone we care about can be safe. I will do my best to help you with this difficult task. Of course, all the substantial threats can only be faced by you.’

"It should be like this." The elf replied coldly. At the same time, there was a ridiculous idea in her heart. Crasus's words just now said that he was very similar to him and had people who cared about him. Does he have someone to save? The person must not be Nathanos, who is that? The ranger thought of the question Crasus asked - saving the life of the Red Dragon Queen, which one do you choose? Two answers, if there is a connection between them... Sylvanas couldn't help but be surprised. Could it be that the person who talked to him had a terrible identity?

‘Please hand over the emblem to Ronin.’ I want to say a few words to him.

Sylvanas had long wanted to throw away this thing, so he decisively handed the emblem back to the mage. After Ronin took it, he stared at it. He nodded sometimes, but it could be seen that what Crasus said made him feel a little uneasy.

Finally, he looked up at Sylvanas. "Crassus told me that your sister was rushing here."

"What does this mean?"

"It's just a message. In addition, he wants you to take this on the road and act as a token of cooperation and contact."

Sylvanas did not get the thing back and yelled: "No need, I don't care no matter what your purpose is, but if you make trouble from it, be careful!"

"Okay. Then what should we do next?" Ronin nodded submissively and asked.

"Go back and set off."

Ronin held the emblem in his hand and returned to Fistard with Sylvanas.

‘I will guide you and your companions into the mountains ahead and guide you to Grimbato.’

Crasus couldn't provide everything Ronin needed, but that was enough to make the young mage nod.

Sylvanas walked in front, and he could guess without seeing that he was still talking to Crasus. "Go faster! We have wasted a lot of time, spokesperson."

Ronin was not uncomfortable with this new title, and in fact, Sylvanas was right. Crassus continued to speak as he followed.

‘Don’t mention this insignia to others. Don’t talk to me in front of others unless I have my permission. At present, only you and Sylvanas know my existence, and I believe she will not tell others.’

"What role are you playing?" he couldn't help asking. In fact, Ronin has always been wondering why Crassus wanted to find himself to complete this impossible task?

‘I’m trying to protect a future.’

The mage muttered something in his heart, but didn't say it. He chose to trust Crasus and had no choice but to do so.

Crasus also guessed Ronin's thoughts. 'Listen to me, young Ronin. You may not understand and be full of doubts in everything I asked you to do. But please believe that this is your best choice. There are many dangers that you do not know, many dangers that you cannot face alone.'

You still didn't say anything. Ronin thought so, Crasus only said he wanted to save the Red Dragon Queen, but he did not mention why he did this. He believed that Ronin had other purposes, and Ronin also suspected that Crasus had other purposes. He felt like a puppet, being plotted.

‘In a little while you will reach your original position. Now I have one very important thing to deal with. Don’t act rashly before I give you instructions. Goodbye.’
