Chapter 153
Plan (1)
“Grandpa’s game is over, so let’s go.”
As Dylan waved his hand around in disdain, a bunch of big guys jumped out of the sedans around Vincent.
In an instant, the atmosphere turned violent, but the expressions of Lennok and Vincent facing each other were extremely peaceful.
Even if Vincent didn’t know, Lennok had a rough idea of what his appearance meant at this point.
As Mila reached for the shotgun she was carrying on her back, Vincent spoke again.
“Well, your young friends don’t seem to be in a good mood, so I’ll tell you my business right away.”
“……”
“From the circumstances going back, you would have been in the VIP seats at the Teina Auction House, so you should have a rough idea. The fact that I was the one who won the archangel’s compassion in the end.”
“so?”
Could it be that he intends to claim ownership of the relic now?
Thinking so, Dylan and Mila looked annoyed and tried to increase their mana.
Vincent, who was maintaining a gentle expression, said with a grin.
“I want to formally transfer ownership of it and sponsor you instead. How about that?”
“Now that this shameless old man is here… Huh?”
Mila, who was about to scream, later understood the meaning and opened her eyes wide.
“You want to sponsor a class?”
“of course. Lady, did you really think I would now call you coveting that precious artifact?”
Vincent replied with a smile.
“I know roughly what that fellow over there is like. Perhaps if we leave it as it is, it wouldn’t be strange if someday I get swept away by the fire in the name of getting rid of the aftereffects.”
As he said that, he calmly crossed his arms and nodded.
“I was here to prevent all of that from happening.”
Hearing Vincent Mayblack’s true intentions, Lennox was not at all surprised.
If Vincent was really willing to help Irina wholeheartedly, he should have intervened right away during the battle with the exploration team.
The fact that they showed up late instead of doing that means that they were predicting the odds of the exploration team low from the beginning.
Rather, by proposing a sponsor to Lennok, he reached out first to get rid of later troubles and settle the grudge relationship.
His attitude of using his hands to quickly liquidate his position after watching the progress of the battle was extremely neat.
Lennok smiled and shook his head.
“It would be nice to talk to Jenny about the details. Because he is a much better negotiator than me.”
“……”
“Well, I know what you want to talk about. After today, I will cleanly forget everything that happened with the exploration team.”
Irina and the Arashak exploration team were wiped out, but what does that mean?
What Lennok said was, in effect, a declaration that he had no intention of touching even the backers who were paying her, and Vincent recognized it right away.
“It’s good that you understand quickly. I can be happy to see you off.”
With Vincent’s words, the suits quietly opened the way out of the forest.
The three of them passed the old gentleman and headed to the street.
Just as Lennok was about to pass him, Vincent said in a very low voice.
“Mayer said to say hello to you. I’m looking forward to the day we meet again.”
“……..”
Mayer.
It had been a long time since he had heard it, but Lennok had not forgotten the name.
The fate I met when I was involved in the work of a pharmaceutical company.
Wasn’t there an old man overflowing with greed who started as a district councilor and once got a seat on the city government’s inspection committee?
His greed was so impressive that he remembered it, but it seems he didn’t forget Lennok either.
I never thought I would hear his name in a place like this.
Will we meet again someday
No, he must have thought of that and left a message to say hello to the old gentleman.
As always, he is a very unique person.
Lennok didn’t respond and walked right past him. Vincent didn’t even bother to stop him.
Only the faint smell of blood wafting from the collapsed forest was announcing the end of the short and intense expedition.
