The Sword-Back Goblin's throat-slitting gesture received no response from An Kai.
In fact, An Kai even looked down on him for it.
He thought these Goblins who knew nothing but fighting and killing were far too crude.
Never mind whether they could kill a Lord.
Even if they could, it was still a rather primitive approach.
It took time and effort, and came with risks.
How could that compare to getting something for free?
In [Side Story], the Immortality Organization Leader's death had appeared alongside "Taboo," one at [49] and the other at [50].
That was because the Immortality Organization Leader's death had other repercussions...
When An Kai opened the [Side Story] details, he saw this line:
[The Immortality Organization Leader's death has left a Lord position in the Wealth Abyss vacant.]
Including this vacancy, the [Wealth Abyss] now had two vacant Lord positions.
Just enough for him and the Sword-Back Goblin to take one each.
As for why the Immortality Organization Leader had held a Lord position in the [Wealth Abyss], An Kai had no idea.
With the Immortality Organization Leader dead and the Divine Punishment Continent undergoing drastic changes, An Kai had been forced to seal off the way back.
He therefore had no way to investigate further.
How could An Kai have known that this was an arrangement the Immortality Organization Leader had prepared for his tenth life?
Its purpose was to give him a suitable identity in the [Wealth Abyss], allowing him to quickly find [Divine Court: Rebirth].
Unfortunately, because of An Kai...
His plan had been forced to emerge 2,000 years ahead of schedule.
Although An Kai did not understand all the twists and turns involved...
That did nothing to diminish his gratitude.
"The Immortality Organization is full of good people!"
