Chapter 830: Be Careful What You Wish For

Northern took a deep breath and exhaled sharply. Everything was gone. His appetite. His will to eat. And before him lay the potential of a Supreme delicacy, an unfathomable feast of the gods—if not for this… whatever in the shell of a noble scion had decided to interrupt him!

He inhaled sharply again, fixing a glare on Kaelan as he exhaled, this time with deliberate control.

"So, in the end. The reason why you are here is because of your curiosity, isn't it?"

Kaelan froze, blinking at Northern as if he'd been caught stealing from a divine pantry. Then, he let out a wild, suspicious laugh—one that was jagged, unhinged, and maybe, just maybe, meant to cover something else.

Sadly for him, Northern saw through that flimsy shield effortlessly.

"What?! Curiosity? What kind of flimsy excuse—pfft, I'm talking about the next shape of history here! You—yes, you—could be the crux of an entire civilization to come! A living keystone, the bridge between what is and what should be! And all you have to do is take it. It's free! Nature's gift! Just reach out, seize it—sink your teeth in, devour it whole!"

His fist clenched as if he could physically grasp the abstract notion he'd just conjured. The last three words cracked like a whip from his mouth, his eyes burning with a manic spark of resolve.

Northern looked at him with a sincerely disturbed frown.

Then he sighed and shook his head.

"Don't worry about all that. Just get to the point, Kaelan. What do you actually want?"

Kaelan exhaled heavily, leaning back in his chair with a dramatic slump, like an actor who'd just been booed off stage.
