Chương 262: Master and Apprentice (Part 1)

"Where do you keep running off to?" Bjorn grumbled as he sat down on a log next to Skalr. 

"So, you've been keeping an eye on me?" Skalr chuckled as he carved a new runestone. 

"Of course, I have," Bjorn sighed. "We can't have you disappearing when we still need you. What if something happens to you?"

"Then that is my fate," Skalr replied with a shrug as Bjorn groaned in frustration. "Have you been studying the runes?"

"Yes, I've memorised the first few pages." Bjorn eventually replied while glaring at Skalr's surprised expression. "I've got a damn good memory."

"Hm, is that so? Let's put it to the test." Skalr handed Bjorn several smooth stones and a special carving knife. "You can keep that. Think of it as a gift from a master to their apprentice."

Skalr chuckled as Bjorn's eyes went wide. He studied the knife carefully before letting out a small gasp.
