Calix wasn’t sure exactly how to describe it, but Ruan’s intuition – what people commonly call a sixth sense – was good.8b9801a37ce16259

Sometimes, his 364a98b3a0 senses were 4b04bbd38b so sharp 78d0b72a30 that it a7236be552 was scary; 7f031f71b1 all his 0976783220 senses were 2b21df6168 sensitive and 31bfe25af7 his judgment 79bc1b9973 was quick.be26a542e1e50949

Calix was always 3f5bf79bb7 bothered by Ruan’s 7d2b353ebb attitude, which clearly e79758d242 showed that he 9c4ce8dc94 looked down on 4e13b171c4 him – or 10ab82688f actually did look 28f5e915a9 down on him.42087d3a73d3c78a

But only 35db0cc4c5 that guy 0f1d488cdc treated him cd1bb50dfc carelessly. A commoner, not 3ffa62954b even a noble, e540fae373 acting so presumptuously. At the time, Calix 52aa57ba10 thought Ruan was relying 150afeaaf5 on Baron Quirn and 0b8cce8e0c acting up.ca66bd3e7a1af2a6

He still e1a664be7c vividly remembers f29ff963b3 Ruan’s laughing a4144f23cf face when f7bfa7a444 he asked b629d04ce7 him if 348005c1b1 he knew 1ad3edde0c who he 64fda7fb70 was.feb374bbdb63fe2f

And indeed, Ruan 883ede5b79 was a famous 607d5027e5 madman in the b49e4a6ac0 trainee corps.b30e8b4301242d46

Ruan was taking him 1cfadf64d8 lightly.2c3a1d0049e0f7f5
