Thinking of all those things he could accomplish, the man's breathing grew ragged. Suddenly, Hemingway called out to him from behind.

"Don't forget," Hemingway said with an amiable smile. "Half of that belongs to me."
Oswald deeply stared at this man for a few moments, before nodding. "Of course."
The next moment, he cast his gaze over at Edward and Lisa, who were shocked by this sudden turn of events, and sneered. "Don't be so surprised. You'll be following the dragon soon."
