265 Chapter 265 Chains Anyone?

*It gets me time, and it means that I don't have to do anything too bad, I just have to provide assistance. Maybe… help him when necessary while he tries to get revenge? I can maybe use some of my demonic leverage or whatever it's actually called to make sure that it's when I deem necessary instead of him? That should give me a lot of freedom to act while not tipping my hand too far.*
