Chapter 125 - 125: The Giant White Cobra (2/2)

There was only one thing he could do.

'System activate the mark of the king and prepare to place all my stat points into agi-'

Gray's thought was cut off as he noticed the girl walking beside him through the corner of his eyes.

”What do you want?” He asked with a sigh.

”I was sent here to keep an eye on you, therefore, I am keeping an eye on you. Is there a problem?” She asked with a stoic face.

Gray stopped and turned to her. His eyes cold and dark, a slight bit of bloodlust was released as he said.

”I'm not in the mood to deal with baggage given to me by those hypocrites.”

Gray was referring to the president and executive.

”I already said that I'll end this war. If you plan on killing me later, you might as well try now.”

He leaned in towards her and pulled her katana out of her hilt before placing the blade over her neck as he glared into her eyes.

”But if it fails... You know what will happen, don't you?”

Their figures reflected off their similarly coloured eyes as they stared at each other, eye to eye.

The expression on her face didn't change despite his threats and the pressure he was exerting.

Their foreheads were almost touching with how close he was to her.

And yet, it remained stoic and calm.

”I didn't say I would dispose of you, I said it was my order. You saved my life, even if I was ordered to, I wouldn't dare hurt my saviour. Besides... Even if I tried, I'd fail.” She said.

Gray narrowed his eyes before backing away, he rubbed the back of his head and clicked his tongue.

She didn't seem to be lying.

And on top of that, he recognised her voice, she was the one who managed to convince the guards to trust him back in the prison facility.

Why help him if she planned to kill him?

Gray didn't know what was going on through her mind, neither did he care.

”If you try anything funny... I'll kill you.” He said before moving on.

'...Delta... Huh?'

Delta nodded and followed behind him.

Somewhat excited to explore this new world, Gray began his journey, walking on the air towards the large walls.

Of course, even he knew that his stamina wouldn't last all the way. He'd have to go down into the jungle once again, sooner or later.

”Also that was my first kiss you stole.” She said nonchalantly.

Ria's eyes slowly opened and instantly a thought flashed by her mind.

'Where am i...?'

Her thought was interrupted however, as she was quickly greeted by the urge to breathe.
