Chapter 86: Debt Collector × Severed Arm
"I can guarantee that I won't use your abilities in the short term, and there's also a time limit on borrowing them." Those were Leol's final terms.

If the Royal Guards learned Meruem's location, they might very well interfere with the chairman's battle against
