Chapter 3277: Considerations
After confirming that the Dragon Scale Angel had produced did indeed belong to Lord De, Sypolov's feelings became somewhat complicated.
Ever since he had entrusted his favor to Lord De, he had imagined countless times what it would be like when an outsider came to redeem it. He had imagined close acquaintances seeking to redeem the favor, and wondered what he would do if the Dragon Scale fell into his enemies' hands. He had even considered how he should handle it if some unrelated race obtained the Dragon Scale.
From his own perspective, the first two possibilities were the most likely, while the last was the least likely.
