He didn't want to give Julianne any false hope. He wasn't interested in women as old as her. It seemed like it would only take a few more years before she turned into an elderly woman.

The Five Combination Team followed his gaze and looked up at the blue sky with the occasional white cloud passing through.
Julianne's bright expression immediately turned gloomy. She was full of regrets about not being born in the same generation as him. Lawrend's talent and performance in the previous battle had awoken the inner maiden within her.
"Alright. Take good care of the Imperial Capital. Once I return, I want to see everything in order. It would only take me a month," Lawrend said and looked at each of them.
