Lucius was angry. I would have to be blind not to see it.
But that didn't mean I was going to apologize. After all, I did nothing wrong!
"You really shouldn't draw attention to yourself as a contractor," Lucius said, gritting his teeth. He appeared like someone who tried to teach their disciple the basics, only to see them commit the same fundamental mistake over and over again. "It's only going to come back to bite you in the ass later!"
The next few moments that we spent in the market looked just like that. Lucius complained about my behavior while freely sorting through the items displayed. A few moments later, he finally calmed down and turned silent.
A bit later, he finally shook his head.
"Just treat it as a precious learning experience. One of a social nature," Lucius sighed as his shoulders sunk. "In the end, you can't achieve much in life if you focus your entire self on cultivation alone," he said, a deep nostalgia striking from his words.
