The City Lord was about to turn and run off thinking that he was caught, however, he suddenly heard Dae Han's tired voice say.
"Who are you? Father!"
The City Lord paused and peeped around Elder Hyun-Joo into the room.
He saw Dae Han sitting in the middle of the room, and it almost seemed like he was awoken from a deep session of cultivating. The runes on the walls and ground were all gone without a trace in sight.
The City Lord was quick to catch on and he hurriedly said.
"Son, be respectful, this is Elder Hyun-Joo from the Academy."
Dae Han showed a surprised expression before he weakly stood up and said with cupped fists.
"My apologies Elder Hyun-Joo, I was not able to recognize your identity."
Elder Hyun-Joo glanced at Dae Han and seeing the dark circles under her eyes, she frowned before saying.
"A young man should know when to cultivate and when not to."
