Lu Cang returned to the City in the Circle.
...
The moment he returned, he felt a familiar Perception make contact with his own.
It was Iz's aura.
Izparut had returned.
"It's been a while, Iz."
Lu Cang approached Izparut, who was standing before a fruit stall.
Iz picked up a pomegranate.
"It has been some time. How have you been?" With a light tap of his finger, Izparut peeled the pomegranate, leaving only the seeds to fall into his hand.
"My growth might just surprise you, Iz."
"Haha, you think you can surprise me?"
Izparut let out a hearty laugh. "I just got back, and I've already heard the news. You cleared all one hundred floors of the War God Tower and achieved a 500-win streak in the Battle Arena."
"But I didn't expect you to go around proclaiming you'd defeat Lu Luwei as a Level 3 Mage."
Lu Cang: "Huh?"
'Wait, when did I ever say that?'
Lu Cang had always considered himself to be humble when dealing with others.
