131 Meeting The Frontliners [part 2]

The hall became silent as Raven and her friend entered.

Arlem took his seat and leaned back on the chair, ignoring the newcomers.

While Braham turned around, squeezing out a warm smile as Northern had observed him do.

"Braham," Raven greeted him curtly.

Then she turned to Northern, her eyes betraying no emotion.

"Lael."

Northern was struck by a turmoil of emotions, a rigid vein visible on his forehead as he smiled with his eyes and replied coolly,

"I'd appreciate it if you do not call me that..."

Having Raven call him a name only his mother was allowed to use for some reason was utterly annoying. His pride wouldn't allow it.

The young lady's cold voice rolled out.

"Except you have something better than Northern."

Northern raised a brow.

'Should I be angry with her... it looks like she's insulting me...'

At the same time, it also looked like Raven was being sincere.
