"Why?" Cedric couldn't help but ask. "Why do you want the Blood Essence of a True Dragon?"
Shivika smiled mysteriously. She didn't answer Cedric and just asked: "Just tell me, will you come with me or not? If you are not coming, then keep this matter a secret. I trusted you that's why I came to ask for help. Don't betray my trust!"
Cedric sighed and then nodded his head, saying: "I'm coming!"
"Good!" A smile blossomed on Shivika's face. She happily said: "I knew it. You are not an idiot to refuse the offer. Now, we just have to be extremely careful and not attract the attention of higher-ups. We'll wait for a perfect opportunity to enter the forbidden ground of the sect."
Cedric nodded his head in response.
At this time, another voice suddenly echoed from outside the courtyard: "And I can help you create that opportunity!"
"Who?" x2.
