Chapitre 70: I Cast Eternal Sleep

Clone #1 relayed the scene. Wisebel was scheming again.

"You're procuring a Venomous Death Lizard?" his subordinate asked.

"Have Baron Mime handle it," Wisebel instructed.

"Wisebel is a vile man," Karina remarked over tea.

"He's a petty crook," I said with a shrug. "I could eliminate him, but then his brothers would step in. Wiping them all out would be excessive, even for me."

"Why can't they see your value?" she asked, genuine concern in her tone.
