Why Put Yourself Through This?

[The antics are over; back to the main plot.]

Of course, no matter what he thought inside, an old hand like Gray Serpent would not let his dissatisfaction show so obviously in his words.

No matter what, Su was Kevin's close friend. Even if the two disagreed over saving the world, so long as Kevin had not issued a kill order, Gray Serpent, as Kevin's subordinate, naturally had to treat Kevin's friend with courtesy.

Leaving aside showing him respect, at the very least, he could not throw punches at the man before he had taken the initiative to mock them or attack.

Therefore, Gray Serpent could only try to put all the pressure on the woman named Yae Sakura.

Although the mechs and security personnel at headquarters were no match for the Key of Corrosion in that woman's hands, if she intended to make a move, the Sovereign would surely receive word of it.

And if she did make a move, once the Sovereign learned of it, he would definitely step in and kill such an eyesore.

As for discussing cooperation with Yae Sakura and Su, Gray Serpent had not considered it at all.

World Serpent and Gu Yu had become mortal enemies, while Yae Sakura was Gu Yu's closest companion.

If not for the reliable intelligence circulating through the information network of the Inner World that [Gu Yu's hobby is young girls], Gray Serpent might even have thought Yae Sakura was one of Gu Yu's mistresses.

A woman like that was certainly one hundred percent loyal to him, and suggesting cooperation would inevitably require too much contact.

The more they dealt with the holder of the Key of Corrosion, the more information on their side would be exposed.

Gray Serpent had no desire for World Serpent and Schicksal's plan
