Difan's sudden words startled everyone around him.

Judging from Difan's earlier demeanor alone, taking the Power Stone away would probably have required a great deal of effort.

Yet now he had so easily withdrawn his promise and had even offered to pay for all their future expenses.

It was possible that they would not be,
