บท 306: Unexpected Aid

"Are you here to help?" 

"Oh, you're more trusting now. That's a good sign."

"I don't have a choice, so I may as well trust you…" Oli chuckled sarcastically.

Shrugging, the man responded, "I suppose you're right. But you're still trusting me, and that's what matters."

"So are you going to help or just waste my energy with a drawn-out discussion?" asked Oli.

"Oh… Am I not worth your time and effort? You know, even kings would beg me for a moment alone, for a chance to discuss cultivation."

"Then maybe come back after I'm a king."

"You'll never make it that far without me, that's why I need to spend time with you now," teased the man. "And if I wasn't here now, who would mention how much time you're wasting?"

"If I was wasting time, wouldn't Zelsh step in?"

"Not if Zelsh didn't have a better solution than this… Still, it's an admirable effort. But you don't believe it will work, do you?"
