章 913: Not By Chance, The Carrot and The Stick

"Then, having seen both up close, from your perspective, which one is the correct method?" Bellum asked.

"I suppose that depends," Izroth replied calmly.

"On?"

"Whether or not you're willing to accept the truth."

"What are you-"

"Alright, I think I've played along long enough. To be honest, I was somewhat curious. Why is it that someone with your abilities seems to hold no interest in their ranking? At first, I thought that perhaps you simply lacked any ambition. Or, maybe this was all just a way for you to kill some time. But then, it dawned on me. Even though this is our first time meeting, I have seen your name before." Izroth stated nonchalantly.

He then continued, "Ranked 15th on the event leaderboards, Bellum. That's you, is it not?"

"Certainly, I am ranked 15th; however, it was not as if it is some great secret. After all, both you and Lieutenant Niflheim have access to the event leaderboards." Bellum noted.
