"Wait, hold on.
Neron began to protest, his brow furrowed.
"I was supposed to be partnered with Legris. Why am I not paired with him on this mission?" His voice was sharp, filled with both frustration and confusion.
The Cult Leader gave a calm, but firm, glance in his direction. "The partnership will be suspended temporarily until Legris can prove himself. The next mission is his chance to demonstrate his abilities and his commitment to the Nether Cult."
Neron didn't back down even when he heard that. He wanted to go against the Leader's words.
But then—
Legris immediately raised his hand in protest.
"Hold on, Neron. Stop," he said, his tone steady and resolute.
"I will be fine. I need this opportunity. I need to achieve something to truly solidify my place in the Cult."
