Why did things have to get so complicated!?
Alex couldn't help but wonder as realization dawned on him.
Glancing at Alejandro, he pondered the possibility of taking him aside to inform him that the deal was off and he'd have to find a different way to prove himself.
Unfortunately, he knew well that he couldn't do that and so… "Fuck!" He cursed yet again.
"Is something wrong, Master?" Victoria asked worriedly while Alejandro looked on with a frown.
Of the group, perhaps only Ana remained calm as she was well aware of why Alex was panicking.
Alex turned silent as he thought of possible ways to break the news to Alejandro and Victoria.
But how was he to say it?
That an Abyss Wheel Mystic with Distorted Corruption had caused what was now known as the Southern Ruins?
Perhaps that would be enough for them to understand why their current situation was a rather precarious one.
