Chapter 161: Conspiracies (1/2)
Chapter 162: Mon Cheri
“Why did you betray us?”
Arizihana Agnoth heard the question directed at her She was at an underground facility and talking to a spectral ie that was projected above an array eye The question was asked by this spectral inizable visual profile
Ari was pissed by hearing the question directed at her She gripped her sword’s hilt hard before replying:
“Me betraying you? I should be the one asking the same question to you You told me you would initiate contact withfor days on end
And suddenly I got the news that one of your hideouts has been found out My pay to do that just had to go down in cinders
How are you going to compensate me for my promised paye was silent for a while before replying:
“The city of Silver Did any news leak from your end?”
“Nope Why would I jeopardize uys? It see to stab me in the back, didn’t you?”
The spectral shadow couldn’t help but chuckle after hearing Ari’s response It wasn’t long before it clapped back:
“Ari, my mon Cheri Why would Beast Bloods betray you when it was just about to receive its biggest award fro between us
And it’s fine if you don’t want to trust cultists Because the cultists are the bad guys right? But can’t you trust your lover in this?”
Ari’s anger was at its peak when she heard a hypocritical answer from that spectral shadow:
“Trust your lover? You were the one who started with “why did you betray us?” And you are telling me I should trust you because we are in a relationshi+p”
The spectral i to pacify the wo you, Mon Cheri Of course, I didn’t anization, you see The ones that force me to ask such questions and be done with it
But you can trust me when I say that we didn’t betray the deal we had from our end”
“Didn’t betray you say You didn’t even tell ave me to break into D-Rank I would have died in a few years if it wasn’t detected at this stage”
Said Arizihana while taking long breaths Her chest was rising and lowering rapidly, a testaer she felt towards the spectral i melancholically:
“The bastards didn’t tellto kill you with the deal and were using me as the medium I mean, I knew the water was always murky with the cultists But I didn’t know that they could be so insidious as well”
“So you’re telling me you didn’t know about the potion’s side effects?”
“No, Mon Cheri Honest Why would I let ed froh?”
“Yes I’m sure I checked with the city’s finest healer and came to know about the sary But one could say that it was subsidising
“Are you alright? The side effects are gone?”
