Even now, he hadn't revealed his so-called "true face."
The answer was already clear.
Ryusoo Jin locked eyes with Amalia from beyond the battlefield.
She was smiling at him—this was the very person who had killed Elder Ryusoo Min.
After a pause, he responded, "What are the terms?"
"The Water Pearl," Amalia replied without hesitation.
Ryusoo Jin's tone immediately shifted. "Impossible."
The Water Pearl was the treasured heirloom of their lineage, it has been passed down through generations of chiefs.
How could he give it to an outsider?
"Relax. I'm not interested in becoming your chief. I just want the Water Pearl. You can keep thinking it over, but from what I see, even if you can keep holding out, your people won't last much longer."
Of the five devils that had attacked first, three of them were already dead.
The remaining two of them struggled to hold on, repeatedly shouting to save Ryusoo Jin—completely dragging him down with them.
