Chapter 425
A misunderstanding
“…Well, I used to know Deam when we were younger. He never trusted anyone, and only thought of using others… Though, I never imagined that he would become a boss of the slums.”
“I see… So you were friends?”
“No. I never did like the way that he did things, so we did not get along. We even fought sometimes. …And I always lost… Haha!”
Indeed, Nick had attacked me with a knife, which compared to Deam and his longsword… It was not surprising who was stronger.
And I had beaten Nick so easily… And then Sebastian and Leo threatened him.
“Well…what do you think will happen if Deam is arrested?”
“Deam. Arrested? That suspicious coward… It is difficult to imagine, since he sleeps in different buildings or changes towns when things get heated… But if it did happen, they might start looking for a traitor, or find out if information has been leaked.”
“Really? Will they try to get revenge? Will they attack the prison and try to rescue him?”
“Well, he does not trust others. So he will not be caught… But that also means his men do not trust him. At least, that was how it was when I was in the slums. Likely, someone else will just take his place.”
“I see.”
Deam had threatened me after I tied him up. Saying that there were others.
