Tuxi Rikis first froze for a moment, then laughed happily, "That would be great. I've been sick of this place for a long time. If you could harm me, it would be a kind of relief, and I would be very grateful to you."
"Ah? Have you been here for a long time? If you're sick of it, why don't you leave? I was just joking, thinking you're too unguarded against strangers," Anthony chimed in conveniently.
The Monarch suddenly sighed in his soul, and Ange cocked his head.
All they heard was the Monarch speaking in the fluctuations of his soul, "How come I never realized before how cunning Piero is? He can easily extract a ton of information."
"That's right. These skills are what he honed through countless reincarnations, spending a thousand years as a Godman," Negris commented.
Anthony's casual skill in leading conversation impressed even the Monarch, and Tuxi Rikis had unknowingly fallen into the trap, spilling everything before he knew it.
