Seo-Yun's words struck me like lightning as my thoughts drifted back—back to the moment before I went out to fight the joint 60,000 soldiers. I had considered using my dark talents. And even though I didn't, I was still pulled into a dark place. One that ended up increasing my corruption level.
What she said about the people around me was true… but I refused to believe I'd fall like the rest.
"Ooh… it seems you've already been in that situation. That explains why your soul is already tainted," Seo-Yun chuckled, snapping me back to reality.
I realized I had been lost in thought. My worries must've been written all over my face, which is probably why she made such a bold assumption.
"You see?" Seo-Yun continued. "No one makes it alone. Capturing territories and building forces should be your priority, not improving your strength. This tip is worth a billion bucks, but since you're the love of my life, I'll take a hot, steamy night as payment."
Pa!
