The development had taken Khan by surprise. He couldn't have predicted something similar even in his wildest dreams. Yet, here he was, receiving an offer that anyone else in his position would kill to obtain.
Humankind was no stranger to those political maneuvers. The Harbor had taught Khan that they were the norm in certain fields, and he had also played similar roles in the past.
However, Neuria was no Nitis or Milia 222. Khan wasn't a random soldier with no responsibilities or relevance. He was playing a key role in a small team, making his actions valuable on multiple levels.
Khan couldn't do as he wished, and keeping his actions a secret wasn't an option either. Playing both sides with Amox would have been possible in a different situation, but Lord Exr's direct involvement added too much political pressure.
'This stuff could get me discharged,' Khan thought. 'What is he even thinking?'
