Bab 660: Subduing Nicholas (Part 2)

Saleen smiled and said, "Nicholas, please go on."

"I would like to become your follower," Nicholas replied through gritted teeth. He was already a grade-9 sorcerer and even though he had fallen, his abilities had not been reduced. He felt a little embarrassed to follow a grade-6 mage. Fortunately, he was already quite old and had learned to be thick-skinned so Saleen would not be able to see his embarrassment.

Saleen moved his left hand and looked at Nicholas. Nicholas' expression was one of peacefulness.

"Why?"

"The current bond between us only restricts me from hurting you. If I become your follower, I will not be able to hurt your subordinates either. I just think that one must be decisive."

"Alright." Saleen did not say more. He took out a blank scroll and began to write.

The two of them signed the second bond in silence before Saleen finally smiled and said, "Nicholas, it must not have been easy for you to make this decision."
