Chapter 936: 292. Behind the Scenes_4

“Please do, both of you. We will seriously consider this challenge. Given the reputation of the Deep Sea Branch and the Pangula Family, being overly cautious cannot be a mistake.”

Lonco’s stature and aura of authority were somewhat oppressive.

Dietrich collected the scrolls and pocket items on the table in silence, following the Rock Bone Enforcer towards the Miniature Ocean.

Before leaving, he turned around, a hint of viciousness appearing in his eyes as he said with a smirk:

“The Four Islands that you’re allowing Mira Faar to mine belong to the same sorcerer, right? It seems he has quite a special relationship with Miss Selena Williams… Perhaps, I should invite him over to Pangula’s Domain for a visit.”

Lonco’s face twitched slightly, while Selena maintained her composure.

Dietrich’s gaze flowed over both of them and then settled on the Miniature Ocean before him.

“Splish splash…”

The Miniature Ocean moved slightly, swallowing the figures of Dietrich and the Rock Bone Enforcer.

After the two had left, Lonco touched his head, replaying Dietrich’s last words in his mind:

“Selena, am I misunderstanding something, or is that guy asking for trouble? He’s not thinking of going after Jarvis, is he? How is that any different from seeking death?”

Selena spoke coldly:

“What does that have to do with me? After all, Father doesn’t want me to have anything to do with him.”

Facing his sister’s petulance, Lonco let out a heavy sigh:

“Sigh~ Selena, Father is doing this for your own good. Jarvis may indeed be capable now, but this doesn’t mean he will still hold an advantage in the future.”

“Yes, I know,” Selena retorted sarcastically:

“Once you guys have cracked his ‘Sonic Blast’ and the spells that summon the dark clouds and thunder and lightning, he’ll naturally become useless. I shouldn’t be involved with someone like that, you and Father are right. It’s my own fault for getting entangled with him.”

Lonco covered his face with both hands:

“…Let’s not talk about this. How are you going to respond to Dietrich and ‘Larolon Rockbone’? They didn’t say it outright, but I can sense that ‘Larolon Rockbone’ also played a part in Dietrich issuing the challenge. Perhaps ‘Larolon Rockbone’ is the brain behind the Pangula Family. They want to use the challenge to figure out our capabilities.”

“Oh, poor Lonco, someone who nearly agreed to the challenge on the spot could think of so much,” said Selena with a chuckle:

“Let’s wait a few days before deciding. I need to consider it carefully. Plus, I still need to have a talk with Jarvis, if we do accept the challenge, we’ll definitely need his ore distribution map.”

“…Alright,” Lonco exhaled deeply:
