Phoenix instinctively pulled her hand back and asked, “W-Wait a minute! What are you doing, Zeke?”

Zeke ignored her question and pulled her toward him. “Stop moving. I'm going to bandage your wound.”

That was when Phoenix realized she had a blister on her hand, and Zeke was about to clean her wound.

Her heart was racing, and her face was burning bright red as she watched him hold her hand tightly.

This feels so good... It fills my heart with a sense of security that I've never felt before!

Zeke then pulled out Ammo Needle and carefully pricked the blister to release the blood inside.

“You should just get some rest if you're injured. Why force yourself to keep working? You'll only lower your

productivity even further. At this rate, even an ordinary member of Centuria could outperform you.”

Phoenix let out a defiant snort. “Hmph! That's none of your business!”

“Gee, pardon me for trying to be nice. Your wound would've been infected if I didn't treat it in time. I just saved you

from the possibility of having your arm amputated, and this is how you repay me? Instead of thanking me, you tell

me it's none of my business?”

“I...”

Phoenix suddenly found herself at a loss for words.

After treating her wound, Zeke quickly packed his stuff and walked off without saying another word.

Phoenix had a dazed look in her eyes as she watched him go.

It sure feels good to be cared for and looked after... Sure, he might be a little rude, but I can't help it! I just love how

manly he is! I knew I had good taste in men!

The two guys working next to her were completely speechless at that point.

Yup, Phoenix clearly only has eyes for Zeke. She has definitely fallen head over heels for that guy! He doesn't even

deserve a beauty like her, and yet, she's super obsessed with him! What a shame...

Of course, Zeke was completely oblivious to Phoenix's dreamy gaze.

Cutting through this dimension to rescue Lacey was all he could think about at the time.

In order to enter that parallel universe, I'll need both a Dark Level divine weapon and the help of a thousand men to

deliver eighty-one slashes. That means I'll need to have a thousand subordinates to help me out. The Southern

Faction alone won't be enough. I'll need to get the Northern Faction involved as well.

With that in mind, he glanced in the direction of the Northern Faction and mumbled to himself, “I wonder if Golden

Cicada can help convince them to lend me a hand...”

Meanwhile, Golden Cicada had just returned to his base at the Northern Faction.

Things were rather lively over there as a few Centurions and their subordinates were fighting over resources at the

base.

Golden Cicada felt distressed upon seeing what a mess the place had become.

It sure feels good to be cared for and looked after... Sure, he might be a little rude, but I can't help it! I just love how

manly he is! I knew I had good taste in men!

After glancing about, he saw Sebastian talking to another group of Centuria.

I'm not sure if the people of Northern Faction would listen to me and work for the Southern Faction, but Sebastian

and I are pretty close, so I can start by asking him. Maybe he'll help me convince everyone else.

With that in mind, Golden Cicada cautiously made his way toward Sebastian. As he got closer, he overheard what

the group of Centuria and Sebastian were talking about.

“Our faction is in deep trouble now!”

“I can't believe the Southern Faction would distract us so they could steal all of our Spirit Stones!”

“Without the Spirit Stones, we won't be able to trade with the Legion for resources. At this rate, we're all going to

either starve or freeze to death!”

“What do we do? I don't want to just sit by and watch my comrades die!”

“Do you think the Southern Faction will take us in if we side with them?”

“Don't be ridiculous! We just attacked them a while ago! It's a miracle that they were willing to let us come back

alive! There's no way they'd take us in!”

“It looks like we're doomed this time. In the worst-case scenario, we'll have to go to Contubernium's district. We

might just stand a chance at survival that way.”

Golden Cicada's eyes lit up when he heard that.
