Chapter 680 Joining the Alliance

• Sebastian never cared about faction drama. Power plays didn't concern him, and frankly, they weren't his problem. But if there was chaos, he'd find a way to use it. While everyone else was busy fighting, he planned to grab a few spoils for himself. Right now, though, all he wanted was to master the Exor Arts and learn how to refine Low-earth Rank elixirs. He had a duel with Darla coming up, and he needed to be ready.
• "Hey, Brat," Sebastian said, "I've already signed up for the Demonbane Conference. You better keep an eye on me when it kicks off. Maria and Sophie are holed up training, so no one's gonna be around to babysit me." If Calvin showed up, nobody from Demonbane Academy would dare try anything. With him nearby, Sebastian could take the stage without watching his back every second.
• "You really managed to sign up, Little Senior?" Calvin raised an eyebrow. "Did you use your real name? That Godborn lunatic should be hunting you by now. And he's not some pushover either, so how'd you get in?"
