Chapter 329: Kaleb Zen's Treasure

‘Haa, so that’s what he was up to?’

'Well, that’s annoying, but at least now we know to never appear before him.’

‘Hmm, but how do we deal with him then?’

‘J-Just th-through messages.’

Kanata-san was quite the troublesome ally I’d gotten myself. If push came to shove, I had no doubt I could deal with it, but something felt odd. For some reason, I actually hesitated when it came to him. If it were anyone else, I feel like I’d have killed them and used the next best option already, but for some reason, here I was, making up excuses to keep him alive.

I put my hand on my face and grumbled.

“The hell am I doing?”

“Lady Hinotori…?”

Sylphie asked.

I blinked, then took a look around. We were in Diane’s tree. Sylphie was already here when I came over to see Diane, but Diane insisted she stay for our conversation. I didn’t really mind since there was nothing wrong with her listening in on it.

“Oh, uh, sorry. Where were we?”

“You bested the Fortress of Solitude, no?”
