Section 1069 Monty's Obsession

```

While everyone was still engaged in a boisterous discussion, Monty's peculiarity went unnoticed by most due to the cover of his mask.

Only Sanders shot Monty a disdainful glance.

Although Sanders appeared aloof from the vortex of conversation, he was, in fact, observing the movements of everyone, especially Lord Monty.

Others may not be privy to the inside story, but as someone marked by the Thief of Time just like Monty, Sanders had a good understanding of some of Monty's thoughts.

Indeed, the vast majority of those marked as "seeds" by the Thief of Time initially shared the same stance towards him.

Sanders was unwilling to be constrained by the Thief of Time and even held a loathing for him.

Initially, Monty felt the same way.

As a natural-born genius with lofty goals, truth was their sought-after shore; why would they allow the Thief of Time to steal their choices away? Even if it was a choice they would not have used.
