Chapter 1033 Let's Team up?
Seeing Daphne, Gary remembered the situation when he was in the ring. Although he had focused a lot on Harvor, he remembered her, not just because of who she was, but because she had also oddly helped him out during a difficult moment for him and his group.
‘What is she doing here?’ Gary thought. ‘I thought she would have gone back to her city after the escape. How long have I even been asleep for... it couldn’t have been that long.’
Regardless, Gary had to see Daphne as somewhat of an ally after helping them in the tough situation they were in, especially since she was here, and Kai was here as well.
“Daphne Bree... it’s a pleasure to meet you. I didn’t get to thank you for helping us out back then,” Gary said. He was tripping over his own words as he wasn’t quite sure what the right thing to say was. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He then just realized that he had gone on a rampage right in front of her and was a little embarrassed by what he had done. The two of them were both Kings, meant to be on the same level.
“It’s no worry,” Daphne said with a bright smile. She was extremely confident, even though she was technically in enemy territory, and in the Ice Ring, not a single person was on her side.
Everyone present was core members of the Howlers, who were incredibly strong. Gary remembered seeing some of her power, but just with the power to control Altered alone, how could she just freely be here? And Gary was even wondering if her power would work on Werewolves, since technically they weren’t Altered.
“I make my own decisions,” Daphne said. “And at the time, I took the opportunity. Now we both have a common enemy, which is the One Gang and Harvor.”
“I’ve made a bet, and betted on you, Gary Dem. Let’s not make Harvor right and make me lose this bet. Listen to your friends more.”
Out of the corner of her eye, Gary could see she was looking at Kai. It seemed the two of them had been having much deeper conversations than he realized.
“I’m not against you helping us,” Gary said. “But I just don’t understand what you’ll get out of all of this.”
“We already discussed that, Gary. You’ve been out for a day,” Kai answered. “Just like you, I was also skeptical about the help, but seeing how badly hurt you were, it makes sense.”
“I spoke to Crowley, since he used to teach at the AFA,” Kai said. “The Zodiacs are incredibly strong and something we need to worry about, but even more so, the general gang members are incredibly powerful as well.”
“Honestly, I asked him what he thought would happen if our two gangs were to fight, and he said it would be a complete annihilation on our part.”
“Which is why Daphne will attack Inferno City. It’s likely they’ll send a large group of people, including some of the Zodiac members, to combat it.”
“However, Daphne and the Bree family can’t take on Harvor. If he comes to defend the city in full force, everything will fail.”
“Which is why shortly after the attack on Inferno City, we need to attack Harvor directly as well.”
“Attack Harvor? We’re going to be on the attack?” Gary asked. It was the first time for them. To do such a thing... they had always been on the defensive, and attacking others felt a little wrong to Gary.
They had attacked Notsburg before, but that was a one-time thing.
“You’re not ready, though, as we established,” Daphne said. “Which is why, in the meantime, I’m going to be the one to train you up.”
Gary blinked a few times. Just what was Daphne planning to do? And how could the two of them even train together, to begin with?
Meanwhile, Kai’s thoughts were elsewhere. How much time did they have for Gary to get stronger before Harvor was the one to attack?
‘It’s worrying me, but why hasn’t Harvor made a move... there has to be a reason,’ Kai thought.
