Capítulo 184: Misplaced Kindness

"Have you forgotten, Albert? We are in the same boat... If you slay me, you, too, will cease to exist." The youth's words brought the raging Albert to an abrupt clarity.

Albert recalled that the youth had hinted at this from the very beginning.

—— "Are you so afraid of conversing with me? Are you scared you'll lose? Hmph, let me be frank with you. You stand no chance of victory, for we are destined to die together."

At that time, Albert dismissed the youth's words as mere bluffs. 

However, now, he had to seriously contemplate the possibility.

Seeing Albert had regained his composure, the youth continued. 

"You remember what I told you, right? We are in the same boat. Either we both triumph, or we both fail. The choice is yours." 

After declaring his stance, the youth even sat down right there, appearing completely at ease, as if he had no intention of battling Albert anymore.
