Standing up abruptly, I pulled Ericka along with me. I knew these people were vicious and if I had been given a heads up, then I might as well offer a helping hand to my partner.
It wasn't like I had already fallen in love with her, oh! that would have been a child's secret play.
It was just that even by having Aya, an S. I. by my side, it wasn't a guarantee that I would be able to wipe out the whole of ICA alone. And with that, I needed allies.
Allies that were powerful enough not to be shackled down by powerful figures. And with Ericka being the head of Interpol, then with the resources donated to them by Aya, she would be powerful enough to wipe out all the other people who had ties with the syndicate.
If I need a smooth way to move forward, then I needed people like her alive and not six feet under.
'One remaining...'
Feeling happy, I smiled as I fist palmed myself in my head.
