After Yanhuan left the estate to return to the World Tree after a month-long absence, Wei-Lan reached out to Bishop Va'ren.
"I am satisfied with your work… my son's transformation, both physically and mentally, has shown me some hope that I can leave my lineage's future in his hands."
"That's what you get when you work with the best in the field."
Bishop Va'ren enjoyed the compliment dearly… While other Bishops were using the CRS platform to collect rare materials and forbidden knowledge for their personal growth, Bishop Va'ren wasn't in a rush like them.
Instead, he was in this war for the sake of advancing his career as an Alchemist first, so he could handle the creation of his own evolutionary formula, not hire another Alchemist like the others did.
"What about your end of the bargain?" Bishop Va'ren asked calmly, "It's been a month already… we are near the end of our preparations, and you haven't spoken to the boy once."
