Chapter 2044: Trembled [Bonus]

[Bonus thanks to Chronotitan <3]

Sylas stayed silent for a long while.

The bite that Alex had taken out of him wasn't normal. If it was a simple matter of just flesh and blood, as people who had reached the pinnacle of Rune Mastery, the First Race could have formed an endless supply of it.

The real issue was the fact that Alex had also taken a large amount of his Will to replenish his own. And at that moment, Sylas could even tell that had Alex not restrained himself, he would have just continued to endlessly consume.

The fact Alex had enough self-control to not go that far was probably why he was still alive, but it also went to show just how strong his Will was.

Alex claimed that his Will level was still low because Sylas didn't allow him to complete any feats. But was his Demonic Will level also just as low?

It seemed that the answer to that question was no.

Sylas didn't actually mind that Alex was still hiding things from him. He would certainly still hide things from Alex, at least the things that he didn't want to have out in the open.

Whether they would be the strongest of allies now... only time would tell.

Making friends wasn't exactly Sylas' strong suit, not because he didn't have the social capacity to do so, but because he had never really found anyone worth being a friend to.

For Yamero and Alex to both suddenly decide to be so intriguing to him at the same time... it virtually felt like Nosphaleen was plucking strings.

It wasn't lost on Sylas the sort of face she had made when Yamero appeared. There was little she could do that he wouldn't pick up on or notice, whether that was because of his attention to detail or the fact her mind was quite literally an open book to him as a Contract.

Now, however... she was no such thing anymore, and her current situation was unknown to him.

What he did know, though, was that if his enemies wanted to use her against him, he would be sure they never raised their heads again.

"I'll do whatever I see fit." Sylas replied calmly, his tone completely non-committal.

The story Heaven and Fathomless were telling him was clearly an attempt to tell him that the Hell Clan was also his enemy. But as far as Sylas was concerned, if it best suited him, he wouldn't care to align with the Hell Clan against the Heaven and Fathomless.

The idea that only the Heaven and Fathomless Clans would be inclined to work with him was asinine. How could these two possibly know that?

If they had the ability to monitor their Clans, they wouldn't be so vague in their assurances.

The shadow fell into silence.

"Do you understand, Sylas Grimblade, that we still have the ability to kill you here?"

Sylas didn't so much as flinch.

Yet, Sylas continued to stand there as the joints of his knees creaked into one another, his spinal discs squishing down into a painful mesh that sent jolts of electricity through his entire body. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
