#Chapter242
The man is standing there, frozen in front of Ren’s figure. He touches the inner corners of his eyebrow, sighing as he realized what he just did wasn’t wise. The man bows and immediately opens the gates for them.
Ren looks at the back, seeing everyone’s surprise formed on their faces. He smiles, liking that his name has such an impact and power in this world. He now feels more confident, something that he was lacking lately.
/"Follow me,/" he tells them and on by one enter the city of Ziran.
The man runs fast down the stairs to greet them. Ren stops and so the rest follow. The old man is panting and rests his hands on his knees. He then bows, almost touching the ground. He refuses to raise his head till Ren pats his back and the man stands straight.
/"Your Grace, I didn’t know you would come here,/" he says with a trembling voice.
/"My mission is in secret, I hope you understand why,/" Ren answers softly.
