Chapter 1321: Endgame

"Tell me, Legris… did you also see this coming?"

As I uttered those words, I could clearly see the confused expression of the enemy.

Legris Damien was stunned beyond words as he saw me stand right in front of his grand prize.

"H-how did you…?"

"I'm smarter than you give me credit for. The same applies to any of my variants." I broadened my smile.

"W-what are you…?"

"Did you really think Lewis and Karlia were fighting you in vain? They already knew they stood no chance in their fight with you, but they fought you anyway." I added, raising my index finger.

"Why do you think that is?"

For a moment, there was silence.

It took forever for Legris to process my question, but I waited patiently for him.

We had time.

His eyes slowly widened, much wider than they already were. It seemed he already understood.

"That's right, Legris. They were stalling for time."
