Villain Ch 1744. Field of Influence
"Maybe Alex got recruited."
"…Recruited?"
"To fight the Emperor!" Red_King practically shouted, then grabbed Allen's arm. "Quick—we need to go to the Field of Influence! He must be there!"
Allen stared at him. "Dude, I—"
"No time!" Red_King yanked him forward like a cartoon character, half-dragging him toward the city's main gate. "We have to go now before the event triggers! What if Alex is already in the middle of it?!"
Allen let himself get pulled, if only because arguing would just burn more time. "Fine," he muttered, "but I can't fight the Emperor. Rules."
Red_King groaned. "Yeah yeah, NDA, Goldborne clause, whatever—just record us if it goes down. Get some good angles. I wanna look heroic."
Allen smirked faintly. "You always do."
