The 24hrs check-in arrangent that I had with my subordinates was what guaranteed my life down in the S-rank dungeon. So if Jill wanted to abolish that then she will have to offer sothing of similar nature in return. And that would be her adding that she would be responsible for my protection down in the S-rank dungeon.

"I am here on verge of sothing that could affect entire humanity, I don't have ti for babysitting," Understanding she had played right into my hands Jill once again retained her cold indifferent exterior.

"Rember how in order to put an end to the monster war Card apprentice had to form a treaty with the supre beings at the way beyond, consider this the sa," Seeing that Jill kept losing sight of what to do because of her letting her pride blind her I acted as the bigger man and beca the voice of the reason who pulled everything together for the bigger picture. Because as the one who got his way I felt responsible for consoling the loser since we were the only people around here. And I couldn't help but sympathize with Jill for throwing a tantrum. I too would be pissed if soone way younger and four realms below were to beat twice.

"You are a fraud but aren't you flattering yourself by comparing your existence with the supre beings," Jill retorted.

"You want a fight, fine, but tell what are we doing here? For soone who claims to be working on the greater good of the entire humanity why do you fail to see that your pride has beco the obstacle here," Being doubled burned Jill in one sentence I gave being the voice of reason repaired to put on the gloves.

Feeling that what the boy said was right Jill was more ashad about letting her pride co in the way of her work than the rage she felt for being manipulated by the boy into taking an unnecessary oath that benefited the boy more than her. Jill then stared at the boy and replied glossing over her previous actions, "Fine, I will add that to my oath. I am only doing this because it will be a hassle for to keep bringing you to the surface every 24hrs so that you can check-in with your subordinates. I can't afford any more distractions, I have to complete my research before Luna completes her testing on the dungeon relocation apparatus."

Hearing Jill bring up Luna and the dungeon relocation apparatus, my mind suddenly rembered that Jill said it has been a week since she arrived. Then I could help but connect her arrival with Luna. Then I could not help but think whether that dungeon relocation apparatus used by Luna and What Jill was doing down here were related. That could explain a lot about how Jill a researcher from the central region ended up here down south in the southern region. So I blurted, "Don't tell , what you are doing here is sohow related to the dungeon relocation that Luna is conducting."

"Luna? You close with Luna too?" Jill asked in surprise hearing address Luna casually.

Though Jill was busy with her down in the S-rank dungeon, she made sure to update on what was happening out in the world. So when the boy claid that he knew Southern Emperor, she, who had heard of the fraudster from third rate city and the southern emperor claid a patent for a fake product, did not doubt that he was lying about him having the southern emperor on his speed dial. And now hearing that the boy knew Luna as well, she was starting to doubt the identity of the boy, was he really an orphan card soldier from a third-rate city or was he a bastard of the southern royal family in hiding? That would explain his extraordinary grasp of array formation and the strong personality for a re card soldier.

Jill herself did not know that unconsciously to console her hurt pride she was overthinking by coming up with the secret identity of the boy gibberish.

"She keeps reminding to call her Dr. Luna. So, I guess not. I think it is because she is jealous that I was able to achieve what she could not," Luna was cold to , the sa as old Lorenzo when we first t but now things were different I guess. Yet I added the last part because I could feel jealousy and resentnt in Jill's voice when she ntioned Luna's na.

"What do you an?" Jill asked curiously. For so unknown reason, Jill felt a bit good hearing that the boy had bested her colleague Luna too. Which prompted her to ask for details about it to the boy.

"I can't talk about it, they asked to sign an NDA," I replied seeing that talking shit about Luna kept Jill's mind from holding the fact that I manipulated her against .

"What was so serious that they asked you to sign an NDA?" Learning that I had to sign NDA Jill got more curious about how I bested Luna.

Technically I never said that I bested Luna, I said I achieved what Luna could not, which literally could an anything. I may have said it in a tone that may have led Jill to misunderstand what I was saying and did not bother to correct the misunderstanding and instead leaned into it. I was not lying when I said they had signed an NDA. Because Luna and Lorenzo did ask to sign an NDA with regard to the Silver Milk Powder. But I did withhold from Jill that I rejected the idea of signing an NDA.

I am not the bad guy here. I used a little deception to get Jill back to her work which would have a greater impact on mankind. If lying could be justified when used to save a marriage. Then what I am doing her could also be justified.
