Shortly after Albion cleaned up the corpses in the narrow alley, reducing them all to ashes with Ashura Flames, he noticed the little boy was nowhere to be seen.
The little boy had long taken the chance to escape while the thugs were preoccupied with Albion.
"This brat… Well, whatever." Albion muttered.
He was not expecting any words of gratitude or anything. Still, the little boy was sure quick to run when he had the chance.
"He was quite a tenacious brat, though. He was brave enough to secure a portion of the earnings for himself and did not cower due to the thug…" Albion mused, thinking the little kid was worth recruiting.
Suddenly, he recalled one of the Dark Emperor's titles; Orphan Snatcher.
It was no wonder that the Dark Emperor aimed at orphan children. They were easier to train and teach, allowing them to grow up to become well-disciplined subordinates.
Nevertheless, Albion did not linger on the topic.
