Chapter 447: Pick a Side (2/2)

If you just want to stay out of it, sure you can. You can stay in school and research. But until the war is over, you would be in a task given by me.

I cannot risk my organization which is a hope for many people who came to me leaving their previous posts, it is too much of a gamble even considering the stakes. I cannot take that risk just because of your expertise, your emotional state, your trauma, or even your beauty.

I am sorry, but you better make a decision.”

Sam finished and didn't say anything else. Philip who wanted to say something hesitated and didn't say it in the end.

He could understand what is Sam thinking. In all the parks, the hunting teams, the new recruits, the workers in the factory everyone combined will be more than ten thousand employees. Ten thousand is a conservative estimate. And there are really three thousand members in the school with pure student identities.

He couldn't stake all their futures on his word. After all, from what he knew of Sam, he is not someone who would just let his employees' future be in an uncertain situation because of his own decision.

Sirona didn't reply and just left silently, she understood what Sam is getting at, but she couldn't help but feel a bit lost. Why did the Usaine sect didn't think of her like that? She is a valuable asset; she knew that much.

She dared say that apart from Sam, she could beat anyone in the art of formation provided that they are of the same levels, the Usiane sect treated her with utmost importance at first, she has priority over resources and everything. But why is Sam is ready to kick her out for the sake of students who couldn't even contribute to his fighting force?

She is now understanding the Usaine sect more and more. They only paid lip service and superficial things so that she could be under their thumb, once she was out of control just for a bit, she was being plotted against and was almost killed.

At least, Sam is treating her the same way all the time.

As she thought about it, she halted in her tracks and turned back into the room.

”I will participate in the war and leave everything related to Usaine sect to me, but I only have one condition. I want the eight guardian puppets of the Usaine sect.”

She said confidently with a calm expression. The four in the room are surprised by the sudden change of expression.

”Sure. Be prepared then. You have three months maximum to engage directly with the Usaine sect. You are in charge of the matter regarding the Usaine sect and it empires.

The first agenda is to penetrate into the Arsin empire. That is the only place that shares the border with the Usaine sect.

I will give you the instructions on when to make a move openly. Until then, you can deal with it as you like. The only requirement is that you have to be in the Arsin's imperial capital three months from now.”

This time, Sirona received her instructions and left the place.

She understood something today and a long-stretched band snapped. She wants to see what this Usaine sect which put her in this position and all the confusion that is eating her brain away.

When Sam thought of his own employees, this far ahead to make sure that she wouldn't cause them trouble, what is she doing when the Usaine sect made her like this, there was no retaliation. Sam is not even willing to risk it and trust her completely, but she is here moping and whining without any reaction.

Is her care for herself so much less than Sam's care for his employees?

Sam doesn't what Sirona thought at the moment. He didn't want to use Sirona in any way and there is no hidden meaning behind those words.

He really meant what he said. He is not clear about Sirona's feelings. When he was in her position in his previous life, he already started planning his revenge after two months and already held the heads of those people half-way through the third month.

It seems like it took this long for her to snap out of the daze.

Sam thought to himself as he started explaining his plans.
