Chapter 3480 Useless Pawn
“Perhaps it’s because the previous few incidents were connected to you. You indirectly leaked the news. He isn’t suspicious of you. He is afraid you’ll leak the information that he tells you and affect his plan in the future,” Gloria explained. “This time, Master nearly caught someone in the act—a traitor of the Ecclesiastic Order. That only serves to prove that he was right.”
Floyd nodded. “Yes, these few incidents were related to me. I was at fault! I’m afraid Master won’t let me know what he would do or his whereabouts. This is upsetting. It feels like he’s trying to sideline me.”
Floyd felt upset at Levi’s actions, but Gloria was upset as Floyd could no longer provide news regarding Levi to her anymore.
She wouldn’t get to know Levi’s whereabouts, and that would only put her at a disadvantage.
If Floyd was still useful, she could find out where Levi was and plan ahead of time.
Alas, that wasn’t going to happen from now on.
She couldn’t help but feel dejected.
Floyd is going to lose his purpose as a pawn. He was really useful previously, but he’s no longer useful now. I can’t believe this day will arrive this soon. Floyd will soon get to know my real identity, and by then, he’ll be totally useless to me.
There wasn’t much that Floyd could do now.
She could sow discord between him and Levi so he would assassinate Levi.
That was it.
Actually, Gloria had gotten what she wanted.
For example, she found out where Levi’s base was.
However, she was still wondering if she should give up on this pawn now.
She wouldn’t use Floyd anymore, but it wouldn’t hurt to keep him for now.
Perhaps he could be of use one day.
Gloria decided to neglect him from today onward.
She would contact him only when he was needed and ignore him at other times.
“Remember, Floyd. We’re in a crucial period now. Master might be keeping an eye on you. I need to recuperate, so we should stop contacting each other for now to prevent unwanted misunderstandings,” she said.
Despite his reluctance, Floyd had to agree with her.
“Remember, don’t expose me. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t contact me. You’ll only expedite my doom,” she reminded him.
“Okay, got it.”
Suddenly, something occurred to Gloria. “By the way, Master might use you to spread fake news or lie about his whereabouts. You need to be careful. If you’re not sure about the news, don’t contact me. I don’t want to be the scapegoat,” she reminded him.
If Gloria claimed that Levi would used him in the past, Floyd would definitely fly into a fit of rage.
However, after what had happened, he knew there was a possibility of it happening for real.
Master is keeping an eye on me as he suspects me.
He didn’t forget to get all mushy with Gloria, for they were still in their honeymoon phase.
Alas, all Gloria felt was disgust.
After the call finally ended, Gloria scowled unhappily.
“Useless monkey. What a waste of my time!” she declared frostily.
She would slowly neglect Floyd until he was of no use to her.
Naturally, Floyd knew nothing about it.
Right then, Levi gathered everyone. He had an announcement to make.
Soon, everyone gathered in front of him.
Even Zoey and Forlevia were here.
“I gathered everyone for a simple reason—we will be facing a new enemy soon. I’m not sure who it is, but it is nearing us! Please be careful, for this force might take revenge on you. If I’m not around, you’ll be in danger. Please be aware of that.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Floyd.
“Floyd, I remember you’re in love with a young lady from the Ecclesiastic Order, right?”
