"I'm sorry, but I'll have to decline taking part in the war for the time being," Micheal suddenly interjected, stepping forward. He offered a gentle, entirely unbothered smile. "I still have a personal trial to complete."

Micheal let out a soft, amused laugh. "You all drastically underestimate the sheer difficulty of reaching the top five on the global merchant list."
Nox ignored them, turning a sharp, pointed glare toward Zeke. Deal with your people.
