Moreover, it seemed even his naive and friendly personality was all just an act. "No… that doesn't matter."
He then turned to Pei Buhan, "Old man, if you don't want to become this bastard's servant, attack him together with me. If we kill him, we won't have to be his servants."
Then after seeing his horror-filled gaze directed at him, he continued, "I promise you if we survive, my brother and I won't cause you any harm."
At this moment in time, Lucius had to worry about his and his brother's lives. His father was just as important as their lives, if not more, but if they became mindless servants, then what was the point of keeping the evil Alchemist alive?
Pei Buhan hesitated upon hearing Lucius' words. But with the choice between becoming a servant and potentially surviving, he would rather choose the latter.
