Watching Tsuchimikado Motoharu kneel before him, Jason was taken aback.
In the Nightless City, there were no rules about sparing those who surrendered.
The best enemy is a dead enemy—this was the most genuine rule of the Nightless City.
Jason always believed in this rule.
But...
It seemed a bit of a waste to kill a 'cow' that wouldn't stop producing milk, right?
Jason's hesitation was caught by the elder monk of Tongshou Temple.
As a former street hustler, the elder monk of Tongshou Temple may have been average in other skills, but his ability to read people was exceptional, and with just a glance, he knew what Jason was hesitating over.
"The Onmyoji have the 'Kikyo Seal'. With the seal as their oath, they will not betray."
"Moreover, the lineage of the Tsuchimikado destined them to keep their word."
As the elder monk of Tongshou Temple explained to Jason, he flattered Tsuchimikado Motoharu.
Surviving in current society was not that simple.
Lick one boot?
Too naive!
