Chapter 335: First Meeting with Cross
Chapter 335: First Meeting with Cross
"You're fighting with Marknik outside the dungeon in front of so many people. Aren't you afraid that your whereabouts will be exposed?"
Miss closed the door and turned around to see the black-haired man who asked the question busy with government affairs.
"I have already met Michelle in the dungeon, so her whereabouts don't matter."
Miss went straight to the rest area against the wall and sat down, pouring himself a cup of black tea.
After hearing his words, Cross paused for a moment.
He never raised his head to look at Miss. "Before you entered the city of Leri, I asked Mr. Noble to remind you not to enter the underground city. This was to help you hide your whereabouts. Why didn't you listen?"
Miss carefully tasted the black tea specially provided for the royal family and gave Cross a blank look.
"Nonsense, my friends might be in danger in the dungeon, of course I have to save them."
When Cross heard this, veins bulged on his forehead and the pen in his hand was broken by him.
"For the sake of your so-called friend, are you going to ruin Avervanxon's thousand-year plan?"
Miss couldn't help but click his tongue, his eyes full of dissatisfaction with Cross, "I don't know the person you are talking about. I don't care what his plan is. I only care about the safety of my friends."
Cross couldn't stand it anymore, he slammed the table and stood up, and immediately noticed the teacup in Miss's hand.
He shouted angrily: "Stupid!"
Miss rolled his eyes again and slammed the cup in his hand onto the table, splashing a lot of water.
"They are my friends, and they are also your brothers and sisters. If it were me, I wouldn't be as complacent as you are now, and I wouldn't even look at them."
He was angry, and had been angry since before he entered the dungeon.
This is what makes me angry.
Cross knew that Cassius and Shana were in the dungeon, but he still tried to stop himself from entering.
It would be fine if Cross really had no emotions, but now it seems that Cross not only has emotions, but also has a connection with Avervanxon.
After being scolded, Cross clenched his fists and stared at Miss.
"Short-sighted! The reason why I ignored Cassius and Shana was that I was sure that Michelle would not do anything to them.
Cassius and Shana are both excellent choices to threaten me or you. He is not stupid and will not discard the cards that are in his favor now!
Without Michelle's order, a small follower like Marknick would not dare to kill the two of them!
You just need to keep hiding until the bet is over, and we will definitely win."
After being scolded, Miss didn't feel anything at all, and even felt like laughing.
"Kross, you may know Michelle well, but you don't know Marknik."
As Cross said, Michelle would not do anything to Cassius and Shana right now.
But Macnik is a lunatic.
A lunatic who only thinks about himself and won't follow Michelle's orders completely.
"If Marknick had really followed Michelle's instructions, he wouldn't have died at the gate of the dungeon."
Miss was convinced that as long as Marknick determined that [Higanbana] would pose a threat to him, he would do everything he could to eliminate every member of the [Higanbana] guild.
Both people in the room calmed down for a moment and calmed down.
"Did Michelle notice anything?" Cross asked.
Mis waved his hand, "No, he can't detect anything on me."
Hearing Miss's confident tone, Cross frowned slightly, "Don't underestimate Michelle."
Mis glanced at him and said, "Are you underestimating me a little?"
The two glared at each other, neither of them liked the other, as if they were natural enemies.
"Let's get down to business. You didn't call me here just to scold me, did you?" Miss picked up the teacup again and took a big sip.
Cross looked at Miss who did whatever he wanted and wanted to kill him a hundred times with his eyes.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he came to Miss, snatched the exquisite teacup, spilled the tea in the cup to the ground, and wiped it carefully with his clothes.
Mis was stunned. "No, buddy, I just drank your tea, why are you so stingy?"
Cross held the teacup that he had carefully selected, but he felt it was not pleasing to the eye. After thinking it over, he finally threw it in front of Miss.
"This cup was originally prepared for my sister, but you ruined it."
Miss narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Tsk tsk tsk, you guy..."
Cross turned around and took out a small wooden box from the cabinet.
He placed the box on the table in front of Miss, "Where's the devil's heart? Put it in."
Miss recognized that this wooden box was a prop of good quality that could isolate the magical aura inside.
He said calmly: "It will have the same effect if you put the heart on me. No one else will find out."
Cross slowly pushed the box towards Miss, "I didn't discuss this with you."
Miss pushed the box away decisively, "What a coincidence, I wasn't planning on listening to you."
“Miss, the devil’s heart is the only thing that can create loopholes in the gambling game. Avervanxon should have told you that.
If Michelle gets the Demon King's heart and turns anyone between you and me into a Demon King, Avervanxon's plan will be ruined.
So I am worried about leaving my heart with you."
Miss sighed, looking very helpless. "Let me say it again. I don't know this Sen you're talking about, and he hasn't told me his plan. Do you understand?"
Cross frowned in confusion and muttered to himself, "I don't know him, how could that be?"
What Miss said was actually true.
From what Cross said, it is not difficult to find that Avervanxon may have told Cross everything a long time ago.
On the contrary, Miss discovered everything by reading Tartarus' memory himself, not by Avervanxon.
So he had neither met Avervanxon nor knew what Avervanxon's plan was.
As for why Avervanxon only told Cross about the matter but not himself, Miss didn't know.
Taking this into consideration, he could not completely trust Cross and Avervanxon, and he did not dare to easily reveal what he knew.
"You really don't know Avervanxen?"
"do not know."
"Then when I asked you if Michelle had noticed anything, why did you answer decisively that she hadn't?"
"Becoming a demon king was Michel's suggestion to me. I suspected he was going to use me, so I changed my aura to trick him. Is that a problem?"
Cross was speechless for a moment, "That's no problem... In that case, you can just give me your heart, and I will take on all the trouble for you."
"No, buddy. My friends and I exchanged our lives for the Demon King's heart. Why should I give it to you?"
Cross muttered to himself, "That's right..."
After thinking for a moment, he began to doubt himself, "Wait... weren't we just talking about the thousand-year gambling game?"
Miss pretended to be confused, "Haven't we just been talking about the devil's heart?"
