"Contract.

I will sign the contract."

Alistair spoke up.

"Huh…?"

The Falconkin's expression changed.

"I killed Rune Feline, I will sign a contract that states that. That should be enough to assure you, right?"

Alistair spoke with a calm look on his face.

However, Rune, who was hiding in the room widened her eyes in shock.

What was Alistair trying to do!?

Sign a contract!?

But he was clearly lying!

If he signs the contract and the Falconkin gets the Ancestral Order involved, then there is no way they can save him.

Rune wanted nothing more than to appear in the room and stop Alistair, however, she knew she couldn't do that right now. That would not only ruin the plan, but it would also ruin Alistair's effort.

Coming out and stopping Alistair might save him for now, but that would reveal that Alistair was working for her, there was no guarantee that the Skythorn Falcon City won't make a move against Shadow of Silence after knowing that.

Not to mention how Felix would realize all this was a trap and would be alerted, pushing things to an even bigger mess.

Rune narrowed her eyes in self-hate.

She hated the fact that her brain didn't allow her to be reckless.

In the end, she just closed her eyes and stopped observing the situation.

Nux, who was observing everything had a strange look on his face as well.

Alistair's expression may be calm, however, that man was going against Ancestral Order, the power that even the top Divine Stage Cultivators of the world fear.

He was practically sacrificing his life.

Nux didn't expect him to be so loyal to Rune.

And with how Rune was acting and holding herself back, Nux couldn't help but be even more amazed.

He knew Rune was affected, but that amount of self-control…

It may not look like much but that is something that requires much stronger willpower than what Alistair was currently showing.

Both Rune and Alistair…

They were amazing people…
