A Fair Reward For Betrayal [Part 2]

The air between both of them was held in suspense for a short while.

Cal had a stern frown plastered to his face; what had happened had happened and he had his genuine reasons for doing what he did.

As Northern had postulated, Sura had promised him a way home. Because when one entered the rift, they couldn't leave until the rift's core was destroyed.

Sura for some reasons knew this was a rift and also knew where he came from. When Northern took Fano's name, he had instantly contacted Cal and demanded that Northern be killed quickly.

He promised to create the gateway out of the rift and return Cal home. Cal, having lost all hope of defeating Sura, saw this as the perfect trade.

Northern was strong, but he never believed Northern would be able to defeat Sura, not now, not ever.

"Even if I was to die in this battle, Sura will still kill you and your partner. This rift will be the end of you." His voice sounded with so much surety.
