(58) A windfall

"See? I told you he was just using you." Yagren grits his teeth, looking coldly at Lucas who hid behind Katlyn. 

"If you are so worried about her, why don't you let us go?" Lucas wasn't phased, he even shot back a question calmly. 

"...." 

How could Yagren Agree? From the look of things, it was apparent that Lucas was the one controlling around three rulers. If he let him go, Yagren would be the only one who will suffer in the future. 

"Ah, whatever." Lucas looked at Yagren carefreely, "Anyway, where are the people who escorted you?" 

Katlyn tilted her head, "They went away after receiving a call." 

"...." Lucas's face turned grim this time. 

The awakeners who escorted Katlyn were strong, most of them were at C rank. But they all moved away, reasons being unknown after dropping Katlyn. 

"Hahaha! So that's how it was." Yagren's face beamed in joy at Lucas's gloomy face.
