"I need your help."
Simon firmly said to Li Rui, "I can't even get close to him on my own."
"...I refuse."
Li Rui quickly replied, "If you want to get yourself killed, go ahead. I'm not getting involved. Moreover, if he wants to defect, he'll come out on his own."
After speaking, he turned around, intending to head back to the Dragon Country villa.
Simon stepped across with a stride, saying, "No, no, no, he's a treasure of the Polar Cathedral, it's not that easy to escape their controlled area. We have to help him."
"Then find someone reliable; doesn't the Western Kingdom have its own advisors?" Li Rui was getting a bit annoyed with his pestering.
"They all oppose me."
"I oppose you too."
Simon gritted his teeth and said, "If you're willing to help me, I'll tell you a secret. A secret about the Divine Realm."
Li Rui kept his hands in his pockets, glanced around, and felt this guy might be just trying to pique his interest.
"Tell me first."
