“Mr. Cox… Aren’t you coming?” Neera called out to Avery when she noticed he had fallen behind.

Snapping back to reality, Avery pushed aside the unsettling feeling in his heart and quickly caught up, saying, “All right. Let’s go.”

Matthew was still somewhat upset because of what had just happened.

Upon seeing Neera, he naturally displayed his displeasure. Wearing a sour expression, he spoke in an unfriendly tone. “I really didn’t expect that in the end, it would be you who would surrender.”

Neera was prepared for his reaction and calmly responded, “I never expected to end up with the white flag. It seems that even with all the scheming and plotting, a favorable outcome isn’t guaranteed. The Jennings family is a prime example.”

“Hmph! The Bartitsu Guild has always been like this. If you want something, you have to fight for it. This is a world where the strong prey on the weak. The weak can only be defeated, while the strong can do as they please. That’s the rule. The Jennings family lost because they weren’t strong or smart enough. Their current predicament is what they deserve. But for someone like you, who doesn’t fight or scramble for power, to obtain the white flag and become the district president, it’s truly unprecedented!”

Neera sensed his implication. She slightly lowered her eyes, remaining silent.
