My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2040

Nash looked angrily at the city that had been reduced to ruins.

"They seem to be at the Profound Oriental Realm, but they're destroying the city so recklessly..."

"Master Nash, this is the current state of the Land of Nion," Mosley said with a yawn. "You don't need me to tell you to stay out of this mess, right? This is an internal problem in their country, and it's best if we just watch from the sidelines."

Nash understood the situation and knew he should not get involved, but seeing the determined look in Alfius' eyes made him hesitate.

"Nash," Alfius said with a newfound resolve as if he were a different person. "I know this request is sudden, but I know you're strong, strong enough to change things. I..." Alfius suddenly knelt down. "Please help me! Help this country."

Nash felt torn. He was unable to refuse but was also reluctant to get involved in such a complicated situation.

"I..."

Alfius and Tilly saw Nash's struggle and decided not to press further.

"It's okay, Nash. Don't feel guilty," Alfius said, standing up and walking toward Tilly.

"In that case, please forgive us for our lack of hospitality. I have something I must do. We'll have to part ways here."

Nash and Mosley said their farewells and headed off in different directions.

...

Tilly looked at Alfius in confusion. "Where are we going now?"

Alfius glanced at his sword and said with determination, "To kill the enemy."

Tilly noticed the change in Alfius. The guy who had seemed so fragile moments ago was now ready to fight.

"Could it be..." Tilly muttered to himself. When he turned back, Alfius had vanished.

"Where did he go? I didn't even notice him leaving."

Tilly quickly climbed to a higher vantage point but still could not spot Alfius.

"Could that boy have a split personality?"
