Parting Ways

"Do you disagree? Would you like to go on?" Kuzon stared at me.

His smile was condescending, but I realized that he had every right to look at me that way.

We had both come a long way since our Ainzlark days, but some things never truly changed.

'I lost… and overwhelmingly so at that.'

This had to be the first time I would suffer such defeat in battle ever since I was a kid.

It felt really shitty.

"So, Jared, my information."

"Y-your… wha—?!"

"My information. The location of the Nether Cult."

'Ah, that…' For a moment, I had forgotten the reason why we started fighting in the first place.

"One… sec…"

Now capable of using my Magic, I used Healing Magic on myself and also used a potion from my Special Storage.

Fortunately, none of my internal organs were affected, so it wasn't fatal.

I healed up in no time.

"A-ah, much better…" Rising from my position, I looked in Neron's direction and signaled for him to bring down the barrier.
