''First of all, congrats on your awakening as an item holder. That's a huge accomplishment for someone in your situation. '' Cael adjusted his seat to a more comfortable position after realizing that his earlier authoritative demeanor was not going to be effective when communicating with Raydon.

''I was just lucky. '' Raydon eventually turned his attention to Cael, who was talking to him and responded with a grin. The manner in which Raydon responded appeared to be rather humble; however, everyone could tell that he was being sarcastic from the smile on his face and the tone of his voice.
'Has he found out that we summoned him for the high-rank item holder? ' Cael pondered, recognizing that Raydon had understood their true motive for summoning him—a desire to access the high-ranking item holder backing him.
