"What's wrong?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"This, it might not be convenient to speak directly."
Anke said tactfully.
"No matter, just say it. I, Liu Zheng, have always acted with integrity, why need to avoid others?"
He gestured with his tentacles in a bold manner.
"..."
Anke could see, whether it was genuine or pretense, this outsider had something of a performative personality.
"Are you truly willing to fulfill Flora's commission?"
He had no choice but to ask straightforwardly.
"Of course, taking someone's money to solve their problems, isn't that what I should do?"
Liu Zheng asked, puzzled.
Even in a place like the Metropolis, that was the most basic rule.
If not for that rule, he would have died who knows how many times.
"If that's the case, I advise you not to take this commission."
Anke said.
"Why?"
"Anyone in possession of a Blood Gem must be a very powerful Hunter. And Father John's situation is clearly not quite right."
Anke said cautiously.
