Bab 148: Not as Planned

Ace couldn't believe it. Didn't he say that the main quest should be timeless? Why did the new finalised draft reverse what he had in mind? If Stephanie was an annoying bitch, Ark had to be a crafty fox. Phil was a good old neutral golem, but Ace felt utterly betrayed by the time the presentation was over.

Grabbing Ark by the arm and leaving the office once the meeting was over, Ace glared at his team leader.

"This wasn't what we agreed on!"

Ark was calm. He expected as much. However, as the leader of this team, he had to weigh the pros and cons. Ace might be a very capable god, but he was too involved with this mortal. Favouritism was acceptable but rigging the trials was not acceptable. As the team leader, Ark needed to ensure fairness as much as possible and reduce the risks of system abuse. Rino was too smart for them to allow him such leeway.
