181 A terror named Aldrich Guo (2)

The reason that Aldrich had given seemed too outrageous and incredible. There were just too many factors involved that felt out of place.

The Devil snapped his head up at Aldrich and asked, "But that is…"

"What? Risky?! Yes, it indeed was. I had no way to know what you would do to my body. But it couldn't be avoided. How else was I to master two Laws of the same levels? Also, even if you hadn't died, the moment you would have tried to Rank up, HE would have done something about you."

Aldrich gestured towards the Black Veil, but the Devil didn't dare to look at his right. It was as if the Devil was denying the existence of the Being altogether. As Aldrich mentioned the Ranks, the Devil retorted.

"Just guesses?! How did you even know that I would Rank up or not? Look at me, do I need a mere Viscount written in front of my name?"

Aldrich shook his head, and emotion of sadness came over him.
