章節 311: Abrupt Change

In Almin's mind, all interactions with the whale unfolded quickly. Over a few years together, Almin arrived at an unwavering conclusion: the whale didn't act altruistically without gaining something in return. All its actions were guided by gains, and although it occasionally helped some, it seemed more by chance or the influence of the girl accompanying him.

Since the moment they met inside the black tower, the whale showed a deliberate interest in keeping him by its side, initially using the excuse of making him a pet. This attitude soon made it clear that it was training Almin and showed unfounded confidence in his abilities. After all, who would have the audacity to trust that he could create an advanced-level pill amid the dangers of imprisonment at that time? (Chapter 114)
