Chapter 209 – Aria

The three of them continued talking for a while more, but it was slightly more awkward since Vernon was essentially on the other side of the room.

"By the way, Nick," Vernon said. "Don't get surprised when I act like an arrogant asshole in the meeting. I have to do that since, officially, Kugelblitz can't act like it's on the same level as any other Manufacturer."

"I understand," Nick said. "Thank you for warning me."

Nick understood that, officially, Kugelblitz couldn't act all buddy-buddy with a Manufacturer like Dark Dream.

Nick looked at the big clock hanging on the wall inside the room.

'About 20 more minutes to go before the meeting,' he thought.

At that point, the door opened, and Nick looked over.

He was quite excited about meeting all the powerful people in the world.

After the door opened, Nick saw a young and beautiful smiling woman with blonde hair.
