บท 1530: Plans

"…Alright, if that's how you want to go about it, then go ahead with it," Rui replied. 

"Let's put aside the matter of the Kandrian Throne War for now," Julian heaved a sigh. "I did not come here to talk about such heavy topics."

He turned to Rui. "Tell me, what do you plan to do now that you're back here?"

Rui considered the question wordlessly. "…In the short term, I think I just want to it a little slow for now. I have been away for nearly eight years, and I just want to experience a bit of what I've missed all this time."

It was quite surreal to think that he had already returned home. He couldn't quite get enough of it, especially considering it hadn't even been a full day since he arrived.

"That's understandable, I'm glad you're not going to run off on some other long-term distant commission or something like that. It's good to take things slow when you've been living fast and hard," Julian gently coaxed Rui.
