Chapter 441: Renewed Hope

Kain ignored the indignant shouting behind him, tuning out the absurd demands for compensation. He'd done what he came to do, and if these people were too dense to appreciate it, that was their problem.

With a sharp turn on his heel, he strode back toward the Vice City Lord's mansion. He wasn't about to return to the public infirmary, where he'd no doubt be swarmed with more useless questions and paranoia. His head was already pounding, and he had absolutely no patience left for dealing with these idiots.

Thankfully, not everyone in this world was hopeless.

When Kain entered the mansion, he was met with an entirely different atmosphere. Nadia and his original teammates—Benji, Claudia, and Clara—were already waiting for him, their expressions ranging from excitement to cautious optimism.
