The four of them were inside the luxurious lodge, observing one another with varying expressions.
The bespectacled friends stared at the documents in their hands with awe, while Lyra continued staring at Marlon, completely speechless.
An awkward silence had hung over the room ever since Marlon arrived and shared his interactions at the Hunter Association with them, of course, excluding the part about the Vereenas.
Ashton and Logan were rather surprised by how he had managed to obtain four danger-zones for them. They were even more baffled when they heard that he had secured B-rank ones for himself. The mere thought of their friend raiding danger-zones that even veterans avoided was astonishing.
On the other hand, Lyra was dejected for an entirely different reason.
"You're going on a raid with my sister?" she asked, her voice dripping with something between jealousy and anger.
Marlon nodded casually.
