Chapter 3276 Levi And His Confidence in Floyd
Over the years, the two factions had had many disputes, and they would attack each other whenever they got the chance.
Gloria even had a fight with some of the younger members of North Pavilion, so she asked Floyd to be wary of them.
Gloria told Floyd that since she and North Pavilion had a history, it was only natural that they would speak ill of her in order to drive a wedge between Floyd and her.
After all, North Pavilion and West Pavilion were enemies and wanted nothing more than to wipe out each other.
Gloria convinced Floyd that was the reason the North Pavilion members wanted to sow discord between them.
“You truly are a genius, Gloria! You knew this was going to happen and warned me about it. Otherwise, they would’ve had me second-guessing you, and I would have disrespected you too. Thanks to your shrewdness, they didn’t get their way.” Floyd trusted Gloria and completely ignored Sonja’s and the others’ warning.
That was because they said everything Gloria told Floyd that they would say. It was almost the same as Gloria’s prediction, for she knew what would happen if she set them up to meet.
The woman was nothing if not a meticulous planner.
She could foresee the future and plan accordingly, ensuring everything was within her control.
Had Gloria not prepared Floyd in advance, the man would have doubted her.
After all, Sonja and the others were part of the Ecclesiastic Order. Floyd would be convinced that there must be a reason they did not like Gloria.
However, since Gloria had already brainwashed him, he did not think Sonja and the others were trustworthy.
At that point, Floyd believed that Sonja and the others were just trying to manipulate him and that he should be wary of them. They must have an ulterior motive for trying to help me! I better be careful around them.
According to Gloria, everyone in the Ecclesiastic Order was cunning and dangerous.
That was why Floyd trusted nobody besides her.
Meanwhile, at the hideout, Levi had already assigned people to track down the Bonemasters.
He immediately smiled when he saw Floyd. “Well done! You’re catching up to North Pavilion of the Ecclesiastic Order.”
However, Floyd’s face seemed grim. “Master, I think you should be careful with Sonja. You should know what kind of people the members of the Ecclesiastic Order are. They must have an ulterior motive for wanting to help us, so we can’t trust any of them! With all the infighting going on, they can barely keep themselves in order. Why would they waste their time on us? People don’t just help others without getting something in return.”
Levi nodded in agreement. “You’ve got a point. I also don’t think it’d be wise to trust them completely just yet. For now, it’s just give-and-take. They helped us, so we help them.”
Naturally, the man knew what he was doing.
However, he was surprised that Floyd would say something like that.
“You’re right to be careful with the Ecclesiastic Order. Of all the people here, you’re the one that worries me the least. With your level of vigilance, I’m sure you’ll do just fine,” encouraged Levi while patting Floyd on the shoulder.
Levi was concerned that those around him would be taken advantage of by the Ecclesiastic Order, especially someone like Floyd who had a lot of dealings with the order.
Even when they looked for the list of Bonemasters, they still had to deal with the order.
Hence, it was only natural that Levi was worried about Floyd.
However, Levi never thought the man would be wary of everyone in the Ecclesiastic Order except Gloria.
After listening to Floyd, Levi felt completely at ease. If Floyd’s being so careful, I see no reason why I should continue to worry about him.
Levi was so relieved that he did not even ask Floyd about the list.
After all, Levi was convinced that Floyd was the most reliable one among his disciples. He’s the most rational one among them because he’s different from Azure Dragon and the others.
Levi’s confidence in Floyd was why he never expected that the man would be blinded by love.
Floyd did not leave straight away after that. Instead, he stayed to talk to Levi.
“Hey, Master. Evie is actually learning the Art of Consumption, isn’t she?” inquired Floyd tentatively.
