Chapter 461 Fearless
That was why this matter became even more ridiculous. Unlike the Demon Assassination Squad\'s captain that offered a chance to Zion, this guy asked it in front of everyone and it sounded like an order.
"…" Noel narrowed his eyes as he spoke in a cold tone. "Captain Igor… Your words are not light, you know."
"Who cares about that?" Igor smirked.
"…" Richard, who was the culprit, could only close his eyes, remembering how the conversation went on earlier.
"So, what do you think about the Demon Relief Squad, Richard?" Igor asked while drinking his wine.
"The Demon Relief Squad is indeed good at their own work… But there is someone who piqued my interest."
"Hoh?" Igor stopped drinking his wine as his expression turned serious. "Who is it?"
"He is Iadre. The guy with a masquerade." He paused for a moment before explaining the reason why Noel piqued his interest. "There are a few reasons, but mainly about his fighting prowess. He is extremely good at fighting and taking advantage of opportunities.
"When we were dealing with the Peak Level Demons, he killed half of them. Provided I was the one that grabbed the demons\' attention, it didn\'t change the fact that he killed them.
"And as expected from the Demon Relief Squad, they\'re good at using their brains. This guy is exceptional. Although he is not as good as their brain, Rose, he is not losing to others.
"I don\'t have a lot of information about him, but it seems he has just entered the Zero Squad. Though, judging from his voice… I think he is young, younger than Shawn."
Igor listened to him attentively. The drunk look on his face gradually disappeared as he became more and more interested in the one that got such high praise from Richard.
"I see. Though, the real question is…" Igor smirked. "Is he qualified to join our squad?"
"I believe so. Right now, Paul seems to be the next captain… But from what I can see, this guy has the potential to become the captain of the Demon Relief Squad. Of course, we\'re talking about the future.
"But I\'m pretty sure that the Demon Relief Squad won\'t have a lower rank than their current one as long as he becomes the next captain."
"Hoh?" Igor narrowed his eyes before asking, "Then, what about you? Are you ready to give up your position for him?"
Richard smiled gently as if he had expected this question and had prepared the answer. "You don\'t become a captain just because you\'re qualified. You become a captain because the people around you recognize you as one."
Igor was satisfied with the answer. At the same time, he still carefully considered his words, weighing the pros and cons.
After a while, he waved his hands. "Alright. You can go for now. Prepare for the banquet. We\'re going to have a big party tonight."
"!!!" Igor\'s body shook at that time as if it was an unexpected decision.
Remembering that conversation, Richard couldn\'t help but make a wry smile, thinking, \'I was suggesting the idea so that he could talk about it secretly… I never thought he would be forcing him like this.\'
Then, he heard Noel saying, "Captain Igor… Your words are not light, you know."
His tone was cold and his expression was displeased. Even the people from the Demon Relief Squad stood up, not liking this invitation.
"Who cares about that?" Igor smirked, ignoring their reactions.
"You don\'t, but I care." Noel shook his head. "I\'m honored by the invitation, but I don\'t like the way you approach me. That alone is enough for me to reject your invitation right away."
Igor narrowed his eyes. He thought Noel would be giving some reasons to politely reject him, but it seemed Noel was truly one of a kind guy.
He even stood up and walked to him, asking, "Give me a reason why you do not like my Demon Hunting Squad, not me?"
Noel couldn\'t help but smirk. Igor was standing in front of him and his face was getting closer as if he was trying to intimidate him.
Even the others had rushed to them, trying to stop both Noel and Igor.
But Noel actually provoked him more by saying, "Who cares? I don\'t want it. That\'s enough."
Noel was actually using his own words to reject him.
"Captain Igor!" Paul gritted his teeth, glaring at him. He even put his arm between them as if trying to stop Igor from attacking Noel.
"I\'m simply giving you a perfect chance to order me around. You want to inform me about the Supreme Devil Organization, right? I don\'t care about them, so if you want me to act, you have to earn that chance." Igor smirked.
"You—" Paul wanted to snarl at him because he was far too annoyed with his rudeness.
However, Noel had already opened his mouth. "You don\'t care, huh. Then, I shall report to the headquarter about this. Our mission is to handle the demons, not the Supreme Devil Organization.
"But it changes when the Supreme Devil Organization creates an army of demons. It has become your concern now.
"If you don\'t plan to act, then I\'ll just inform the headquarters about your action and the potential of you colluding with the Supreme Devil Organization."
"You bastard. Are you going to slander me?" Igor glared at Noel. His eyes began oozing his fighting intent as if he was planning to pounce on Noel.
Noel was fearless. He stated with a cold tone, "I am simply stating the facts and my conjecture according to your actions."
Igor and Noel were glaring at each other. It felt like they were about to fight despite one being a Spirit Wielder while the other one was a Spirit Grandmaster.
