Capítulo 577: Daruun's Next Move???

"And given the five hundred years that Halmut spent trying to break the seal on his EXP, he may soon ascend."

"But I thought--"

"Remember, Halmut is now relying on faux-ore to level up," mentioned Daruun. "So long as he can create a crack in the seal, then Halmut would only need more time and faux-ore to become a two-star."

"... Are there any scenarios where we can keep them from fleeing while also keeping Halmut from ascending?" Jack asked, scratching his head.

"There are a few, and there's one in particular that you're heading towards now," Daruun stated. "Soon after you leave here, you'll be contacted by a surprising ally to try and reach such a conclusion. Also… I think you're already starting to come up with some interesting thoughts that could swing things in your favor. Just make sure to have an antidote as well. You won't regret it."
