Chapter 835: Chapter 834
Editor: Henyee Translations
Erin pressed her lips together, clearly holding back her thoughts.
Keira noticed and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Jenkins jumped in before Erin could reply, “This last one here—her interests are surprisingly similar to Erin’s.”
Keira frowned. “Food?”
Jenkins nodded. “Exactly. That’s why we nicknamed her Pig.”
Keira blinked, stunned.
...
Were code names really handed out this carelessly?
She twitched her lips in disbelief, but Erin cut in with immediate protest. “Hold on! What do you mean, my interests are the same as Pig’s? I’m a selective eater, okay? I have standards! I don’t just eat everything. She does! Anything remotely edible, she’s all in!”
Erin gave an exaggerated huff. “Back in preschool, she used to finish off all our leftovers. Seriously, we’d save them for her because she could eat everything! Her mom even showed up at school once to complain, saying the teachers were turning her kid into a pig. Said she was getting ‘too big and too chubby.’”
As Keira listened to their chatter, vividly picturing the scene from years ago, she couldn’t help but interrupt with a question. “You two grew up together for a few years, right? After all that, can you really bring yourselves to go after each other, fighting tooth and nail?”
The question landed like a bomb, leaving both Jenkins and Erin momentarily speechless.
Neither of them saw that question coming.
Even Erin, who had been happily munching on pistachios, slowly set them down and let out a sigh.
Jenkins finally broke the silence. “Childhood friends? Sure, but most of that fades as you grow older. It’s been years since we stayed in touch—there’s no bond left to speak of. Besides, if this fight is destined to be a life-or-death struggle, showing mercy to your enemy is the same as being cruel to yourself.”
Jenkins’ tone was calm, but her words carried a brutal finality. “I know you’ve never lived through something as ruthless as this, but you’d better remember what I’m telling you. Trust no one outside of our faction.
“Be careful—even with me and Erin. We might seem loyal now, but trust? That’s not even in our vocabulary. We grew up learning to protect ourselves first. If you ever end up in conflict with Eagle, and it looks like you’re losing while Eagle’s gaining the upper hand, Erin and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave you behind.”
The seriousness of her expression, coupled with the harsh reality of her words, sent a chill through the air.
Erin, however, wasn’t having it. “Speak for yourself! I’m nothing like you!” she snapped.
Keira glanced over at Erin, curious to hear her out. Erin folded her arms and huffed. “I said I’m different because I never pledged loyalty to her in the first place! I told her—she’s my sidekick, not the other way around!”
Keira pinched the bridge of her nose.
