Chapter 691: Old Quarrel Buddies

"NO!"

My face was wrenched in painful pleading, and I was so sure I had done a good job at explaining the merits of having Beruel on board.

However—

"I'm not working with him. He shouldn't even be back here, you know?"

—It seemed I was wrong.

We were currently in Jane Ursula's territory—the special area we were using for, Soul Project: Omega.

"You really let him waltz in like this? You must have some deep trust in him... considering his affiliations with the Nether Cult." Jane slapped her hand on her face, as she shook her head in disbelief.

I could understand her point of view. I too had initially been sceptical about Beruel's change, and whether or not to trust him.

However, I realized I could.

'My hope is that she does too, but...'

Jane wasn't budging from her stiff position of wanting absolutely nothing to do with Beruel. I felt myself grow tired as I tried several times and failed to explain to her.
