Drawing Cards in the Middle Ages to Rise in Ranks-Chapter 398 - 83: Dawn

Losa was somewhat puzzled, but still asked, "Of course, Clan Leader Juliano, do you have something to say?"

The tone wasn’t exactly respectful, but there was basic politeness nonetheless, given that he was Chelina’s elder, and he, as a friend, was of a lower rank.

"I am ashamed to say, I would like to entrust something to you."

Losa didn’t respond, clearly waiting for him to specify what it was.

Juliano tentatively said, "I heard you are the captain of Yesterday’s Giant Ship. Could you perhaps select a few promising individuals from the Texas Wolf Race to keep by your side?"

Losa frowned and said, "It seems Clan Leader Juliano doesn’t have much confidence in this battle."

Juliano gave a bitter smile, "The Expedition Army’s strength is extraordinary; what they’ve shown tonight is just a small part. The Yakxi Family’s elite Blood Wolf Guard hasn’t even made a move yet. The outcome of this battle is really uncertain."

Losa shook his head, "Sorry, I’m afraid I can’t help with that. I am the captain of Yesterday’s Giant Ship, but Yesterday’s Giant Ship is not mine. I have no authority to choose who becomes a selected one."

"I see..."

Juliano sighed lightly, "It was presumptuous of me."

Losa comforted him, "Clan Leader Juliano, don’t worry too much. Their trump card hasn’t been revealed, nor have ours. The Blood Array Furinjira has been setting up these days is quite powerful."

"Indeed."

He perked up, forcing a smile.

Losa continued asking, "Clan Leader Juliano, do you know if there are any dragon species nearby?"

He thought, since he could hunt the Destiny Black Dragon in the combat record world last time, there’s no reason he can’t hunt a dragon in this world now.

Dragon?

Juliano frowned, "There are indeed many dragon species in the New Continent. When we first arrived in Texas, there was even a Black Dragon that enslaved a native tribe, often abducting Texans to offer as sacrifices."

"But that was over a decade ago. Since we took over Texas, there was no way it was allowed to live till now."

Losa asked again, "How about further away?"

"Further away, there are indeed dragons; for example, in the territory of the Northern Indigenous Alliance. Many young men enchanted by knight novels often pursue dreams of taming Giant Dragons and head there—but seldom see them return."

"Just think, even the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order’s Hohenzollern Family only rides a wingless Earth Dragon; they’re truly bold."

Losa laughed and said, "Young people always think they’re special."

"That’s certainly true."

The two exchanged smiles.

Such casual conversation was a good start.

The scenery at Wolf Castle is actually quite nice, surrounded by mountains, with steep terrain, even more impressive than Algo’s Eagle Castle.

"I have arranged a quiet room for you, so you can rest early."

Losa shook his head and declined, "No need, the enemy might still attack; it’s better to sleep here with everyone tonight."

Juliano was slightly stunned, "You’re hard at work."

"It’s not hard; since Chelina decided to help you, as her friend, I naturally need to give my all."

Juliano showed a grateful expression, "Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

"Then I won’t disturb you any further."

Losa watched Juliano leave.

He found a clean spot, just as he was about to sit down, he stopped and reached out to pull out the unremoved arrowhead embedded in the stone.

These arrowheads with special markings have formidable power, can penetrate stone bricks, and by their appearance, show no damage and can likely be reused, so he got up and handed the arrowhead to a young wolf.

Before long.

Jeanne came over with a piece of fragrant roast meat, taking time out of her busy schedule. She placed it before Losa, smiled, and said, "Enjoy your meal, I’m off to continue drinking."

Roast meat was something Losa was somewhat tired of eating, but after a journey through ten thousand leagues beneath the sea with grilled fish, fish soup, shellfish, and shrimp.

He now found it extremely tasty.

The mountain air was a bit cold at night, Prajna walked over to Losa holding a thin blanket.

"I’m not afraid of the cold."

"Neither am I."

"Then let’s cover ourselves together."

Even if not cold, having something over the body makes sleeping feel more secure.

Prajna slightly tilted her head, leaned on his shoulder, and the two chatted in tiny whispers that others couldn’t hear.

"Been thinking about me these days?"

"A little bit."

"Only a little?"

"Yes."

"Then I have a little bit of missing you too."

Losa’s hand underneath the blanket seemed rather restless.

"What if it’s a lot?"

"Then I also have a lot."

Being restless was actually just placing a hand on the thigh; this place and this situation weren’t meant for tenderness.

"Do you dislike Juliano?"

"Not really."

"I can actually understand his kind; I’m just not like that. If I had to exchange my daughter for a quest to build an empire, I definitely wouldn’t; but as it now seems, Juliano isn’t entirely self-serving."

"Yes, he’s done quite remarkable things."

Losa, somewhat surprised, said, "Then I invite Miss Prajna to elaborate and tell me in detail."

"Hmm~"

Prajna lifted her head and looked sideways at him.

"Why suddenly so polite?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Maybe it’s because it’s been so long since we last met, so I’ve become a bit unfamiliar?"

"?"

Prajna furrowed her brow and then relaxed, "It truly is the first time we’ve been apart for so long. Perhaps not just a little bit missing you. If said like that, would it satisfy you somewhat?"

"Yes, indeed."

Losa showed a proud smile; some things, even if understood, still need expression to clear any doubts of whether it was one’s illusion. Reading Prajna’s facial emotions was always challenging.

So Prajna, with a cool tone, recounted the history of Texas in brief.

From natural disasters in Texas to the arrival of the first batch of Basilicata Wolf Race, continued until the Basilicata Wolf Race discarded their family name to establish the "New Continent Wolf Race Federation."

"Juliano indeed accomplished quite a remarkable feat."

Although clearing demons and stabilizing the situation also benefited the wolves themselves, if it were so easily done, Mexico and the UK’s Thirteen Colony Governments wouldn’t have allowed Texas to remain independent.

"I think so too."

By now, the sky was gradually brightening.
