Chapter 14: Eden Folker
Jaedan sketched a smile. "That’s what I thought, but we were wrong."
"How so?"
"That bastard isn’t an Indivar for nothing. He cleared an S-rank dungeon and holds the Khaïbet-Nefertoum. He could cause us trouble."
Isra furrowed his brows, shocked. "What? He’s not even awakened! Even the two of us would find an S-rank dungeon challenging."
Jaedan shrugged. "Exactly. I’m curious to see his power. We could use him to weaken the prince, then deal with Kara and him once they’ve exhausted themselves."
Isra sighed, unconvinced. "Do you think he’ll stay with Kara’s faction?"
"He’s a sadist. Either he’ll destroy her from within, or he’ll become the true mastermind of her faction in the shadows. We can’t underestimate him if he takes action."
Isra nodded. "With Scarlett, my sister, our faction will gain strength. She’s already at four stars. We could crush Kara."
Jaedan laughed. "Scarlett? She terrifies me with that axe of hers."
"Speak respectfully of our heroic weapon," Isra retorted, proud. "And you, keep an eye on Lucas von Arcadia. That imperial waste could be a good Trojan horse."
Jaedan nodded, taking a sip of wine. "See you at the academy, young Lord Moonshade. Enjoy your oiled girls."
