章 141: Temporal Anomaly

"It seems that if you could handle the old monster in the gravity-chaotic town by yourself, you wouldn't be offering us any help at all, would you?" Irving asked Elder Seville calmly, with a cold smile on his lips.

"If it were you, would you offer me help under any other circumstances?" Elder Seville retorted bluntly.

Both fell silent for a moment. They both understood all too well that this collaboration was a forced one, born out of mutual threat rather than genuine cooperation.

If Elder Seville could completely overpower Irving, he would have killed him already, then coerced Donald and Vicky into helping him. Conversely, if Irving had the chance to eliminate Elder Seville, he wouldn't need to follow him into the rumored treasure-laden area of the Smith family just to ensure Vicky's safety.
