"Finally, I no longer have to keep up this facade."
"So? Kranos, how does it feel to be my chess piece?"
The words sounded as though they came from the goddess of death.
The moment he heard those words, Kranos's heart shook violently.
His gaze slowly turned to Kathryn, whose face held a playful smile.
His heart thumped loudly. He could feel something was wrong.
Kathryn smiled at Kranos, then slowly said,
"Do you really think nothing comes at a price? Who would willingly give out a divine treasure? Do you know the true value of a divine treasure?"
Hearing her words, Kranos felt the uneasy feeling in his heart grow firmer.
Kathryn continued.
"Since you can't sense the state of your soul, let me show you."
As Kathryn spoke, her eyes glowed with a faint emerald green hue.
Instantly, Kranos felt his surroundings change drastically.
In his line of sight, a golden image appeared.
