Chapter 1163. Heightened (3)
Wiggins quickly sucked in a deep breath after stepping into the Assembly’s conference room.
If he was being honest... Half the time, the Assembly's directors’ meeting usually devolved into them messing around and cracking jokes with each other. Of course, they discussed important topics too, but the pressure to do so wasn't there. No one truly felt nervous about attending a meeting.
This story remained the same whether Kang Jin-Ho was present or not. However, today? The air in this room had noticeably changed.
‘Which makes sense, really.’
The directors and executives could relax because they had all the confidence in the world.
Even the person who walked the relatively smoothest road among this group must've looked like a survivor from a hellish journey to outsiders.
Vator spent his entire life walking on the path of never-ending life-or-death battles, while Chang Min was a monster who guarded the demon cult from the merciless passage of time.
Obviously, Kang Jin-Ho's story didn't need to be explained again. At least Bang Jin-Hun comparatively had it easiest among the group, but his life until recently still consisted of fending off threats to his life dozens of times a day while opposing an old monster called Lee Jung-Geol!
Somewhat ironically, Wiggins had enjoyed the smoothest path in life despite performing various important roles in the Round Table, easily one of the most influential organizations in the world.
Everyone in this room had experienced all sorts of trials and tribulations life could throw at them. And that was why they knew what was about to happen very soon.
“I’m back, everyone,” said Wiggins.
Kang Jin-Ho pointed at the empty chair with his chin, prompting Wiggins to hurry up and sit on it.
