Of course, Adite might have held the detailed explanation off until they met again.

Sniff sniff.

Cale lowered his head.

Sniff sniff.

The puppy was circling and sniffing him. It then wagged its tail and barked toward Jopis.

�Ruff, ruff ruff!�

Jopis�s eyes opened wide for a moment before she smiled and started to speak.

�Apparently you are not the devil. In fact, you are supposedly a good person?�

�That is complete nonsense. I am a bad person.�

Ron, Choi Han, and Bud all silently looked toward Cale, but Cale did not notice as the three of them had already been quiet.

Tap. Tap.

Cale tapped on the armrest for a bit before starting to speak.

�First.�

He leaned forward and the two of their faces became close. He then started to whisper.

�I guess we can first consider you to be the �guide� for the maze. And you just want your freedom as compensation. You�ll take care of yourself after that.�
�That is correct.�
�You total scammer.�

��What did you say?�

Jopis�s eyebrows were twitching, unlike her graceful tone. However, Cale was calm as he called her a scammer.

�The deal seems extremely beneficial only for you.�

Jopis was aiming for the throne.
She would only need to guide them through the maze and in return, she would get her freedom, watch the palace flip over, and earn an opportunity to take down Elisneh.

�It seems that it is very hard to scam someone.�

Jopis did not deny it. Cale took a document out of his pocket and handed it to her.

�I will tell you what we want.�

Bud was currently being held hostage. That was why she had the advantage ever since they got here.
It was now time to change that. JrNovels.com
