Capítulo 440: Uncovering the Serpent: Lyle's Oath of Shadows

Lyle, now in full control of the situation, observed the three higher-ups of the Obsidian Serpent as they knelt before him. The dark aura surrounding him began to dissipate, and his crimson eyes returned to being black. With a satisfied smile, he addressed them.

"Good choice," Lyle said. "Now, let's get to work. There's a grand performance awaiting, and your former comrades will be the stars."

"Don't worry, you guys will be pardoned, in fact, your involvement will not be known to the public, only a select few."

Lyle proceeded to outline his plan, detailing each step with precision. The three higher-ups of the Obsidian Serpent listened attentively, their fear transforming into a mix of relief and uncertainty. Lyle's promise of sparing their lives came with a heavy price—loyalty and obedience.
