Draven and Mike Caliyan found themselves face to face, each with their own motives hidden beneath their stoic expressions.
"Ah, the Reaper. I wish we had met under different circumstances," Caliyan began, his tone carrying a hint of regret.
"There's no better circumstance to meet me, Your Majesty," Draven replied coolly, his words carrying neither excessive politeness nor disrespect.
"I assume you've learned how I became the king," Caliyan inquired, to which Draven gave a subtle nod.
"I won't beat around the bush, Reaper. We're in a dire situation, more dangerous than you might think. What do you know about the Dark Serpent Pirates?" Caliyan asked.
"I know enough to conclude that these assassinations were orchestrated by them. As for the assassin, her name is Koreena. She possesses the power of invisibility," Draven revealed, catching Caliyan off guard.
