Liam nodded with a smile. "Don't worry, we have accepted the task, and of course, we will do it professionally."
She then took the contract from Liam's hand.
As she pondered, she modified the contract, adding clauses not to hide, sabotage, or do anything with the Artifact, other than to return it to the Zephiri race after finding it.
This made Liam and Irys frown, but upon reading the clause stating it would be written as Zalaya's friends who found it, they became suspicious of Kalia's intentions.
Realizing they were getting nowhere, they then signed the contract and entered the ruins with Aradia and her follower.
Watching their backs disappear into the ruins, Kalia hit the man on the head.
"You are so stupid, right? Keep your arrogant attitude to yourself. What use is there in saying that?" Kalia gazed sharply.
The man didn't dare to resist and simply lowered his head. "I am sorry, Saint. It's my fault."
