Chapter 1015: Volume 33 Where to Go - 3 Incredible Cooperation (1)
The meeting with Frenster came so swiftly that even Komer thought the other party seemed to be waiting for his invitation.
Komer didn’t have the nerve to invite both Frenster and Vazinsky to Plovdiv at once. If the two pillars of the Church of Light really came together, Komer was genuinely worried they might wipe him out in an instant.
