Valentina could see the almost palpable level of seriousness Eryndor was exuding.
Even though she knew about the abyss, since she wasn't the target, she wasn't as paranoid as Eryndor. She hadn't noticed that Kron was subtly luring them towards the abyss.
Even though she had agreed, Eryndor continued whispering.
"Look, I know everything is happening because of me. I'll compensate you for this alright? Trust me, I will. I keep my word."
Valentina only put a finger on her lips.
"Don't speak of compensation. I do have a trump card, it will let me contract my black snake in the Beast Seeker realm itself.
"However, I'll be unavailable for a while. You'll need to hold out for like thirty seconds."
Eryndor promptly shut up and held his spiked mace tight. There was a possibility that Kron might come after him seeing that Valentina had stopped attacking.
Any sane person would immediately realize that she might be preparing something.
