Upon confirming that the dragon scale Angel presented indeed belonged to Mr. De, Sipolov's mood was somewhat complicated.
Ever since he entrusted his favor to Mr. De, he had imagined countless times the scene of outsiders coming to exchange favors with him. He fantasized about familiar acquaintances seeking to exchange favors, considered what he would do if an enemy acquired the dragon scale, and even thought about how he might handle it if other unrelated races obtained the dragon scale.
In his opinion, the first two scenarios were the most likely, with the last being the least.
Because he had secretly inquired, to exchange for his favor, one must satisfy Mr. De. Mr. De's status in the Hundred-Dragon Divine Kingdom was beyond ordinary, and the exchange he proposed was not something just anyone could afford.
So, he thought, how could a stranger race possibly be willing to pay such a high price for a mere soldier like him?
