Chapter 152: Getting Closer to M Pt II: (Elijah's Patience)

Master Giovanni called Boss Elijah while ignoring the piercing gazes of the uninhibited zoo animals.

On a technical level, Elijah was not Master Giovanni's Boss, but rather he was currently this group of disciples of his's Boss.

Elijah was in fact Master Giovanni's associate. 

They had worked together previously, which made them more like business partners, but since they also knew each other on a personal level, as much as Master Giovanni hated to admit it, the level of trust couldn't be compared.

It was hard to describe their working relationship, but just from the fact that his disciples had all come to work on this assignment for Elijah, it was clear that it was by no means simple.

In this specific case, Master Giovanni was using Elijah as a test and a starting ground for his students, while Elijah was using Master Giovanni's students as labor workers as well as a link to strengthen Master Giovanni's ties to his "company".
