"If I may be so impudent, could you please tell us the nature of what you have to do?"
The one who asked the question was Adonis.
Yes, he respected Ralyks immensely. The man was incredibly powerful, and he was selfless in many regards. Despite all his good qualities, Adonis could not remain blind to a few of his suspicious traits.
For example, his unwillingness to participate in a Dungeon Conquest that would definitely be a betterment to humanity.
"I have some private investigations I will need to conduct, so I won't be around for an extended period of time." Ralyks responded calmly, still on his feet.
"And it can not wait?"
It pained Adonis to press on this way, but he had no choice. As someone who had seen the future—one where there was no Ralyks—he had to understand this man very well.
"It cannot." Once Ralyks gave this response, Adonis felt deflated.
