Chapter 556 Evil Man

Finished

Griffin’s mind drifted toward planting a beast core in her someday, turning her into one of his own people.

That way, nothing would go to waste.

He could use her however he pleased, whenever he pleased.

A smile spread across Griffin’s face. “Well, if it isn’t Bianca! I’m Griffin. We’ve met before, remember?”

He flashed his trademark smile, the one that never seemed to crack no matter the situation.

Bianca said nothing at all. She had zero interest in exchanging a single word with him.

Steven had told her, under no uncircumstances, is she to never let this guy get within arm’s reach.

Griffin took two steps forward, and Bianca took two steps back without hesitation.

A flicker of awkwardness crossed his face.

“Bianca, you really don’t need to be scared of me. I just heard fighting nearby and came to check it out. Didn’t expect to find you here.”

Bianca’s response came out flat and cold. “You found what you were looking for. Goodbye.”

She turned on her heel and started walking away, refusing to give him even a second more of

her attention.

Griffin felt his stomach twist with embarrassment. All those hours he’d spent perfecting that smile, and it hadn’t worked on her at all.

He wasn’t getting anywhere with this one.

Still, he wasn’t ready to give up just yet.

His mind raced, searching for an angle.

“Wait, Bianca! Actually, I wanted to talk to you about something. A partnership, of sorts.”

Bianca’s footsteps slowed to a stop.

Griffin pressed on quickly. “Have you noticed there aren’t many level 4 beasts left out here? At this rate, our scores are going to fall short, and cracking the top twenty is looking rough.

“What if we teamed up to hunt level 4 beasts together? I could help you take one down first, then you help me with the next one.”

Something about that offer actually tempted her, if only for a second.

She really hadn’t crossed paths with a single level 4 beast this whole time.

But Bianca remembered Steven’s warning, clear as day. Stay away from this guy.

Besides, she didn’t need to worry about any of this. Steven would notice exactly what was happening to her, wherever she was.

If she needed a partner, it sure wasn’t going to be Griffin.

Just as Bianca opened her mouth to answer, something made her freeze.

She turned her head sharply toward one direction.

A familiar presence had brushed against her senses.

A heartbeat later, Steven emerged from the tree line.

Bianca’s eyes lit up instantly.

She called out, joy breaking across her face. “Steven!”

Steven crossed the distance to her side and gently ruffled her hair.

The two of them exchanged a single glance, and that was all it took. They understood each other perfectly.

Watching that little moment, Griffin couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy, if he was being honest with himself.

At least Fellaria would be his eventually.

That thought softened the sting a little.

Steven turned his head toward Griffin.

“Well, look who it is. Griffin. So you’re the one trying to rope my girl into a partnership.”
