A Grand Sacrifice
"It's a fake," Cho Min Ho declared apathetically, handing back the golden goblet to Nathan, who had presented it to him with deference. "Even with our Oracle System acting up, I had mentally braced myself for such a setback."
Currently, only the Korean idol and the insectoid man were in the room where they had just met. In this isolated environment, where no one could surveil them, the two Evolvers also acted according to their master-slave relationship. Nathan was submissive, never criticizing or doubting the Korean's observations.
Though there was nothing abnormal in this, it was noticeable that, although each was loyally confined to their role, Cho Min Ho didn't disrespect his slave either. At the very least, he seemed to hold him in high regard. He could have punished him for his failure, but instead, he took the news with a regal calm.
