Chapter 130: Devil Flames (2)

"What? Do you think there's a free lunch? I remember saying that I would rescue her from the old man, not that I would save her. I'm not a hero or a protagonist who saves people," the whale spoke indifferently. But Ruri, on their shoulder, narrowed her eyes; her master was lying.

"A pet isn't worth this trouble. Show me that you're worth it; I'll only give you this chance," he finished, looking at Almin and crossing his arms behind his back.
