"Of course I understand," the young man stammered a bit in response, "but it's just something I'm not used to."
The messenger scoffed silently.
He asked, "So you are sure those people have already left."
"Of course, I saw Odin leading those people away," the young man said and then added, "At least, that's how it should be."
The messenger frowned, which is why he disliked these Holy Choosers; they were always so unreliable.
However, he did not rebuke them, only reminded, "This task is very important for us."
"I understand," the young man hurriedly said, "My teacher has also sent back news."
"That's good then."
"But actually, we don't have to worry about those people, do we?" the young man asked, "We have..."
"Prudence is never a mistake," the messenger replied, "Remember this phrase, you may find it useful in the future."
The young man finally shut his mouth awkwardly.
Just as the two were talking, a wisp of black flame suddenly rose from the withered leaves ahead.
