Chapter 3688 I Might Have Thought Too Much

Although Floyd might still lag behind Xylas in terms of combat prowess, Floyd already had what it took to escape unscathed. That was enough for Floyd to feel confident and proud.

He had improved by leaps and bounds over a short period, and Floyd felt no one in the entire base was his match now. His improvement earned him Gloria’s acknowledgment, which made Floyd even more optimistic and proud.

“Gloria, thank you for putting aside time to train me,” Floyd said gratefully. “Don’t mention it. You’re talented, to begin with, or else you wouldn’t be able to reach this level with just me teaching you,” Gloria replied, waving her hand.

Floyd’s face lit up when he found out that Gloria thought highly of him.

“By the way, Floyd, you should return to the base soon. Your master and the others might worry about you. I’ll be able to keep tabs on any development in the Ecclesiastic Order over here. I’ll immediately inform you about their plans if there’s anything,” Gloria added.

Touched, Floyd teared up upon hearing that, yet he suddenly felt bitter and spiteful as he recalled how Levi had injured Gloria without first finding out about the truth.

More precisely, he felt a deep sense of hostility toward Levi.

“Floyd, don’t blame Master. He must’ve attacked me because he believed someone’s lies,” Gloria commented knowingly.
