Chapter 1197: Done. [Bonus]
[Thanks Patticus. I don’t know why all of you think this is so funny now, but just know I’m crying tears of blood]
The Golden Grove.
When Sylas appeared again, he found himself in a familiar room, with a familiar curved desk, seating an unfamiliar receptionist.
Unless all of the rooms were so close in design, this was certainly the same room that Megean had come to see him in. But right now, her spot had been replaced by another.
This wasn’t too surprising. The last time Sylas was here, Megean seemed to have done something quite foolish and ended up in a dangerous region. Her grandfather had asked Sylas to help, but with his time limit and the situation in the Milky Way, how could he have time to deal with the situation of a foolish girl?
He could respect what Megean had done, and he also had quite some information about the risks she had taken due to the UniForge Andromeda, but he could separate her courage from her foolishness.
Megean was certainly intelligent enough for it to count as bravery rather than ignorance. But even if that was the case, if you had to gather up too much bravery to do something—especially when you had other options on hand—it crossed into the realm of idiocy.
While Megean felt as though she had had no other options, was that really the case? Not even remotely.
Sylas practically had control of the Golden Grove, and her grandfather was contracted to his charge, but she was still a young, up-and-coming talent about to reach the D-Grade. She had a whole life ahead of her, and her family’s power was far more than just her grandfather alone.
Even if she came out of that place with some great power, what was she going to do? Beat Sylas up?
There were plenty of people in the Golden Grove who could crush Sylas with a single finger, but hadn’t they been played to death by him just the same?
