Joey’s Tricks (Part 1)

How important was Saleen? Before this, this question would have been very easy for Viscountess Lex to answer. However, she had been unbelievably shocked by the magic array that Saleen had drawn. She also knew of a magic array like this, and it did not matter how ugly Saleen had drawn it. She could see the similarities within.

"You want to know his secrets?" Joey asked straightforwardly.

If Lex was willing, he could easily extract Saleen’s memory even though it was not something he would usually do. However, if it was Lex’s request, he could not care less about what he himself wanted.

"No, I only hope he survives. Master, do you believe in fate?" Lex asked.

"Fate is but an arrangement by the gods. Of course, that is nonsense," Joey replied and laughed.

"Yes. Since fate has nothing to do with the gods, I hope he survives."

"Lex, you are as stubborn as your father." Joey shook his head, the laughter gone from his green eyes.
