Capítulo 430: “Property of Sigma Corporation”

Vaner lowered his eyes and looked at his loyal followers.

'No, they are not loyal to me,' he thought, squinting his eyes a little bit. 'They are loyal to the sect.'

"I will allow it," he said before flinging the cloth of his robe to the back and heading directly to the stairs leading toward the first level of the terraces. "Follow me!"
