Depatures Away

Ty and Todd strolled down the corridors away from the Demon King's room, their conversation shifting towards matters of trust. Todd's unexpected question caught Ty off guard, and his skeletal face reflected a momentary shock before he responded.

"Of course, even if he does plan to use me to some degree, the ultimate goal is getting back home, and if that's the end result, then I'm happy with it," Ty assured, his voice laced with determination.

He then continued, "Besides, we have signed a binding contract where he has to assist me in getting back home."

Todd, who seemed genuinely concerned for Ty, offered some advice, "Yes, I have heard about that contract, but just take into consideration how much trust you can place in him."
