Chapter 3521 I Just Want To Piss Him Off
Xylas was stripped of everything he had at that time.
Although he still had the elemental spiritual bone, that was still nothing compared to what Gloria had.
There’s no way she’s saving me for free.
There’s no free lunch in the world.
Xylas was worth no more than the pests in the wilderness at that moment, so he could not understand why someone who risk everything just to rescue him.
He was genuinely curious what Gloria saw in him that was valuable to her.
His question elicited laughter from Gloria and Bone Grandmaster.
Indeed, Xylas meant nothing to Gloria.
To her, he was nothing but a weak and useless person.
In fact, he was just a piece of trash to her.
“Well, I saved you simply because I didn’t want Levi to have things his way. I just wanted to piss him off. I knew he really wanted to take revenge, so depriving him of it was exactly what I did. That’s all. It’s all just kid’s play.”
Then, it all made sense to Xylas. He was nothing but a tool—a toy—to Gloria.
Saving him or not was not of her interest. It just so happened that bailing him out could help her fulfill her own selfish desires.
She just wanted to get in Levi’s way.
When the truth finally registered in Xylas’ mind, he realized he was still in hot waters.
Although Gloria did not want to let Levi kill him, it did not mean that Gloria herself would let him go.
After all, he was of no value to her.
Xylas fell to the ground instantly and begged for his dear life. “Please! Don’t kill me. I’ll do everything you ask me to. You can even keep me as your pet. Just don’t kill me.”
After the debilitating experience, Xylas never wanted to go through the same thing again.
He would do anything just to stay alive—even if it meant he had to live like an animal.
He would even eat trash if that was what Gloria wanted him to do.
There was nothing he was unwilling to do as long as Gloria would spare him.
To his surprise, Gloria turned and smiled at him. “Why would I want to kill you? I won’t. In fact, I want to keep you by my side. I’ll train you.”
“Huh?”
Xylas was not expecting things to take a turn for good so quickly.
So she’s not killing me? Did she say she wants to train me instead?
Wait. What is happening?
“You being alive is enough to drive Levi berserk. He will have peace of mind if you’re dead. Things wouldn’t be fun anymore if that was the case.”
Xylas finally understood Gloria’s scheme.
She wanted to keep him as bait so Levi would constantly strive for revenge, but at the same time, she would make sure he never got what he badly wanted.
That kind of mental torture would strain Levi and the others.
It would make them feel as if they were perpetually chasing after a dream that could never be materialized.
If Gloria were able to drag that out for long enough, Levi and his men would fall into a rabbit hole.
Well, if I were Levi, I would be so frustrated.
Although Xylas was in a no better situation himself, he could still imagine what that meant for Levi.
What Gloria was doing was equivalent to enticing Levi with bait, but never letting him have a taste of it.
In that regard, Gloria was much more cruel than Levi.
She wanted him to experience the feeling of never ever getting to execute his vengeance.
That was her sole purpose.
That would vex Levi to the brink and deny him of the thing he wanted most.
It was the same for Azure Dragon and the other four.
Xylas was positive that would mean distress for them too.
At that point, it finally dawned upon Xylas that Gloria was utterly savage.
This woman is crazy.
She’s skilled and full of schemes, but this was just too dreadful.
