Haerang wasn’t entirely sure of Horang’s power, but he had heard stories from those who had been in Paju with them. When the Baek siblings reunited, the person who attacked them was reportedly an A-grade mage. More specifically, this mage was an A+ grade elemental mage and a promising talent under S-grade mage Go Minyoung’s training.2affade7c08ba620
Go Minyoung had whispered, “I can’t share the details, but if trained well, this mage could surpass Dojin. Your sister… she just waved her hand and erased a full-power fireball—one launched with every ounce of survival instinct that A+ mage had. Is your sister even human?”2b886352bbda2357

The returned Horang seemed to carry countless secrets, including that mark, which Haerang couldn’t yet understand. He decided not to rush. The siblings had plenty of time now, so he would learn about them gradually.7a7357803b5f597f

Though Jegal 01f23ce014 Hyeon appeared b7d55d931d to be 436f83b154 a man bc4c38f8b7 in his 5e666c4dfa 70s, no 803a231e02 one knew 8000f5f126 his actual 528c45eab5 age. Among those 234ab6d8e3 who knew e01772a7cb of him, d2e8606301 the consensus 9eb7e0a957 was that e3c30dafbd he was e77f00e0aa somewhere between 39465c1e9d 100 and 639d30c9ab 150 years 2fa9acf712 old. Like Horang, Hyeon cea52bff83 was a returnee, fbbac962ec famously known for 1282afe469 coming from a e57e8a62e5 world straight out 2d237b1b38 of martial arts 06578f1f3f novels—a realm filled f3c07100e7 with warriors and 3f34d847d5 sects.

Despite the 5bd3175e66 universal truth a91c1dbba2 that movement 20cb3d6b4f slows with 594d513a8f age, Jegal 4ea18eccc8 Hyeon was d6e384202d an exception, b57b9ff2ec as befitted b528c5ba76 a returnee. Though Haerang had never 206f92fb6d fought alongside him, the eae78e93f3 promotional videos from his 53a9ed9fd1 guild showed him moving 683cde91a8 so swiftly that his a0b2451cc0 actions were barely visible. There were rumors of 46692ca9ad the footage being edited, 690000ffed but those quickly died 86d8907b73 down since everyone knew f2fc9f9344 that someone like Hyeon, 3def4e3faf who led one of 09a6399ba6 the nation’s top guilds, 1433233830 had no need to 27efc58444 fake his skills.ab32363e0cbef430
Jegal Hyeon, known for 7c3c41f863 sparing no expense in 3ef3db7bc1 promoting his guild, often 2db4ac1c67 expressed nostalgia for his b3057e1ba1 old world. He was 9a316fc203 infamous for e616966bb6 quickly scouting c69b4d1c5c returnees to 6b973190e0 join Jegal 0c35d0dddd Guild whenever 970986b839 they appeared f36c51b892 in Korea.

To someone like Hyeon, a62fd9672e who had a wealth 4e5b0fd880 of experience, Haerang probably 119f87a66b looked like a puffed-up 75c05f42e4 kitten trying to appear d73c73c94e intimidating.
