An entire two hours later, Leon exited Piro's Mage tower.
Mage Nunnally stared at Leon as she calmly spoke to him on the way back to the outpost, "If you still have spacestones in your possession, the Byron Clan will be willing to buy it from you at an extremely high price. We won't disappoint you!"
Despite how composed he usually was, even Leon almost panicked at how intensely she gazed gazing at him. Still, he was able to keep up the facade. He smiled awkwardly as he said, "My Lady, that spacestone was a spoil of war from the planar war I have just returned from. It's only because I was unfamiliar with its attributes that I conducted such a reckless experiment. You have already seen the outcome... "
Leon betrayed an expression of regret after saying that.
Mage Nunnally calmly looked at Leon, only shifting her gaze away after a long period of time. She fell silent.
The atmosphere became slightly awkward.
