Chapter 2068 - Pawn (3) (2/2)
Dyon laughed. ”That little girl is probably all grown up by now.”
”Look at him, already thinking evil thoughts and he hasn't even left yet.” Clara grumbled, but she really was too weak to move.
Dyon was speechless, what'd he say?
Madeleine giggled lightly. ”Little Sister Saru has definitely become a world-shattering beauty. She also seems to like you very much.”
Dyon scoffed. ”I am going to help a friend, not pick up a wife.”
”Oh yea? Then why'd you give up so easily after Fox said he couldn't duplicate the mask?” Ri teased.
”Aiya, my caution and d.e.s.i.r.e to protect my wives is being seen as schadenfreude. Is this the Fate of a good and loyal husband?” Dyon looked up at the ceiling as though he was lamenting a sad life.
Even Clara couldn't help but laugh at his ridiculous acting.
In the end, they let it go. They knew that Dyon's caution was actually a good thing. He wasn't letting his strength get to his head, he respected the possibility that others might be able to gain an advantage on him.
”Husband…” Amphorae said softly. ”Stay safe… The Beast Protection Association is likely involved again. This is the only explanation for the Kitsune's sudden rise. Their new leader couldn't possibly change so much in just ten years… In all likelihood, he was a key member of BPA from the very beginning.”
Though Dyon grew serious at these words, he still felt warmth. Recently, Amphorae had dropped the Lord prefix from his title, making their relationship closer. Maybe in the past she would have never shared a bed with Ri, Madeleine and Clara like this. He felt good knowing his family was becoming one as it should.
Dyon knew that Amphorae's words were very much correct, no one Clan could break a balance that lasted so many years so easily. They had to have help.
And, considering the Kitsune Clan didn't attend the Federation Parliament, this was even more certain.
If BPA was just a normal organization, maybe Dyon would care. In fact, even if they were one of the top 3 quadrants of the tower, he wouldn't blink an eye. The issue was that they were something far more than that…
After gaining Jade's recollection of the future, he learned many things. Namely… Every one of the outer quadrants had pawns in the tower quadrants, it was just they were restricting one another from acting.
In the previous timeline, many of these pawns were destroyed, unable to be made any use of. But Dyon's actions had changed many things… For example, BPA hadn't lost 6 of the Numbered Elites in the last timeline…
Dyon was almost 100% certain that BPA was a pawn of the Transcendent Beast Alliance.
