Chương 694: Enough For Today

One by one, Skullius watched as the rising souls of his kin were devoured by Aurolio. He suppressed the itching guilt and took comfort in the fact that this end of his deal was finally done with, though simply ignoring a conscience he didn't even know he had in the first place was a very tall task.

Aurolio took a deep breath and wore a satisfied smile.

"Thanks, partner," he said.

Skullius twisted his lip and then gave a shallow nod, not willing to waste a verbal 'welcome' on the pale man.

In any case, the harder part was done, and only the annoying part remained.

As Skullius and Aurolio came out of the large cube, the former went up to Arch-Mage Ryte and gave a light bow. He knew that his arrogant 'business partner' wasn't going to express gratitude. At least not in a way that anyone with common sense would appreciate.
