'Favor?'
Julian disliked almost everything that came out of that bastard's mouth.
With that sly face and honeyed tongue of his, Julian would rather believe a snake than trust that Loden had approached him without some hidden motive.
Still, suspicious or not, the offer was clearly beneficial to him as well. So, Julian slowly lowered his sword.
"Speak. And spare me your usual games this time."
"Of course~"
Loden bowed slightly before straightening again. This time, however, the playful glint in his eyes faded, replaced by a rare seriousness.
Then, he reached into his dimensional storage and pulled out a broken bracelet.
"The reason I'm alone is because all four of my teammates have already been eliminated. Now that the elimination phase has begun, I doubt I can last until the tenth day entirely on my own."
He glanced at the broken bracelet before returning his gaze to Julian.
