章節 1391: Choices Matter

Once Lady Miralix left with her cat Genevieve and the box containing the P-stone, Ves informed his staff of what transpired.

He received a mixed reception.

"Just after you decided to go for the Dragon Cat, you suddenly consider hunting Zeigra again because a lady asked for help?" Gavin asked.

"She didn't seduce me, if that's what you're implying, Benny. The equation is simple. Hunting the Dragon Cat is fairly safe but yields little return. Hunting a Crown Cat is a lot more dangerous, but I won't necessarily get anything better than the previous choice."

"If that is true, why did you reopen the door to hunt for Zeigra?"

"Because Lady Miralix is desperate." Ves grinned. "She needs a skilled mech designer to modify her mechs, and for now her only choice is me. Considering her situation, I don't think she can afford to hold out for another mech designer, not without losing her standing within her noble house."
