Eren wasn\'t sure how true rumors about the Sea Dragon Empress were. The only thing that he knew was that she had killed someone from the Holy Church which landed her in this mess.

"With her temper, it would make sense."

He didn\'t know who was supposed to have been killed by her, or else he would have realized that it was all because of him in the end. Until now, he believed that she probably killed another member of the Holy Church.

\'If I hadn\'t left the Empire on time after killing the Archbishop, would I have been chased like her as well?\' he wondered, looking at the Sea Dragon Empress who entered the city and disappeared from his view.

He had promised the Sea Dragon Empress that the next time he was going to see her, he was going to screw her over. However, he still didn\'t feel that he had reached that level.

Sighing, he turned around and decided to make it so that their paths didn\'t intersect at this point.

If anything, it was for the best of the Sea Dragon Empress to keep the Church and Holy Empire busy as it gave her an opportunity to fish in the troubled waters.

[Congratulations. You have triggered Options]

"Now?" Eren frowned, looking at a semi transparent screen that appeared in front of him. He didn\'t know why but he had a really bad feeling about this.

He had a lot of experience in receiving options. By now, he was able to guess what kind of troubles the options were going to bring him, simply based on the timing alone.

[Option One: Inform the Holy Guards about the whereabouts of the Celestial Dragon Empress and have her caught.

Reward: Map of the Royal City of Holy Empire]

\'Have her caught? I\'m not foolish enough to stab my own foot.\'

Eren didn\'t even think about the first option. Although he could win the Holy Empire\'s favor with this, that favor was worth nothing. He was simply going to be considered a mere informant, maybe even receive some money in exchange.

Moreover, if the Sea Dragon Empress was caught, then the search for her was going to stop. All the Holy Guards that were spread throughout the continent might be recalled back to the Royal City.

In the end, it was only going to make the security in the Royal City much stronger. It was going to become even more troublesome for him.

Even if he disliked the Sea Dragon Empress, he still hadn\'t forgotten his own benefits.

[Option Two: Ignore the Sea Dragon Empress and pretend as if you haven\'t seen her.

Reward: Luck +2]

[Option Three: Help the Sea Dragon Empress infiltrate the Royal City of the Holy Empire.

Reward: Trap Detection Compass (Rare)]

[Option Four: Kill the Sea Dragon Empress.

Reward: Hostility of the Celestial Dragon\'s Heart]

"Hostility of the Celestial Dragon\'s heart?" Eren looked at the last option, only to be taken aback.

Even if he killed the Sea Dragon Empress, what did it have to do with the Celestial Dragon\'s Heart? It wasn\'t as if it was a living thing? Or was it? The more Eren thought about it, the more confused he became.

Just what was even the Sea Dragon\'s Heart? Was there still a remnant soul of the Celestial Dragon that could sense that he killed a descendant?

\'If that was the case, didn\'t I already cross that bridge? I\'ve already killed a Royal Sea Dragon.\' Eren looked at the last option, feeling as if he was missing something.

In the end, he didn\'t want to take the risk. He gave up on killing the Sea Dragon Empress. In any case, he wasn\'t even sure if he could kill her yet.

It could easily backfire if his own identity was exposed in the process as this was the city of a Duke who was also an Archbishop of the Holy Empire.

There was no need to take unnecessary risks, which left the choice between the second and third option. He could either leave the Sea Dragon Empress here and increase his luck.

For him, luck stat was the biggest scam, so he didn\'t feel any attraction towards that option.

On the other hand, taking the Sea Dragon Empress to the Royal City was also dangerous but at the same time, it was also beneficial.

As long as she didn\'t recognise him as the person who killed her brother, he could definitely make use of her.

If his plan was to fish in troubled waters, then wasn\'t it better to have the Holy Priestess and the Sea Dragon Empress in the same city? Maybe that way he could also make the Holy Priestess come out of the church.

If there was a fight between the two, it was also a food opportunity to collect that woman\'s blood to remove the second seal. It all depended on how he used this opportunity.

Thinking about it, he let out a sigh before selecting an option. He jumped off the Ship, landing on the ground, deciding on the third option.

"She is being hunted by everyone. The third option is definitely easier said than done, but fuxk it. I haven\'t reached this level by taking easier options. Let\'s just hope she doesn\'t attack me outright."

Scratching the back of his head, he walked towards the City.

A portal opened next to him and Aster stepped out.

"Are we finally going to the city to gather information? I can open a portal straight to the city to save some time."

He opened another portal before Eren, only for him to click his tongue at the sight of the Portal, avoiding it.

"Don\'t be lazy. Walking is good for your health," Eren said without a hint of embarrassment, not telling the real reason behind not taking a portal.
