"Hey Ethan, when did you come back?" Zadan asked enthusiastically.
"Just yesterday evening. How are you? And how's your training?" Ethan replied, happy to see his new friend.
"Everything's going well. Just one more month and I'll be able to level up soon."
Surprised by Zadan's confidence, Ethan let out a smile.
"Good, it's great that you're working hard. Otherwise, you might be left behind by me."
"Dream on, you won't be leaving me behind anytime soon. I don't usually make friends, but when I do, it's until the end."
"Fine, we'll see about that," Ethan replied with a hearty smile. He knew he had made a great friend this time.
