Chapter 82
The SR League was capable of completing any mission, as long as you could pay for it.
“I don’t know any of the top brass in the SR League. I only know its founder,” Bonnie said lightly.
Jim was rooted to the spot when he heard Bonnie’s last sentence.
“Y–You know the founder of SR League?!”
This was the SR League they were talking about! They were the number one task force in the world! Bonnie had never brought this up in all the time he had known her.
“I know him from a few years back.”
“How did you meet?”
was pure chance. The founder’s mother had a serious illness, and he posted a mission in the league with a one billion dollar reward. I was getting a little bored in the research institute when I saw it, so I accepted the mission.”
Then, it hit Jim.
“That explains what happened when you went off the radar. You wouldn’t tell me where you went even when I asked. So you went away to treat the SR League founder’s mother.”
“Are you really so surprised that I know the founder of the SR League?” Bonnie sat down and sipped a cup of tea.
Floyd stared at her and had the urge to smack his own head.
How funny. She was right! The SR League was a mythical entity to a lot of people, but Bonnie was the nation’s leading researcher! She was a legendary figure herself.
The founder of the SR League might be a strong character, but he probably didn’t hold a candle to
Bonnie.
Bonnie checked the time and said, “It’s getting late. You should go. Tread lightly. Don’t let anyone see
you.”
“Like I said, don’t worry about it. I’m the King of Combat, after all.” Jim smiled, leaped out of the window, and left.
Bonnie opened her laptop and made a video call to the founder of SR League.
He was blonde and had a pair of blue eyes that exuded both enigma and charm. His defined features made him a uniquely handsome man with an unrestrained vibe.
He brushed through his long hair flashily and spoke with an accent unique to his culture. “Took you long enough to call me, Bonnie. Did you forget about me?”
Bonnie’s lips twitched at his resentful tone. This was why she didn’t usually call him if she didn’t

“I need a favor, William.”

“Geez. You only call me when you need a favor, then you throw me aside when you’re done. You’re a heartless woman, Bonnie. In the words of your culture, you’re such a scumbag
“Sure. Goodbye.” She couldn’t take it anymore.
“No. Hold on! Don’t hang up! Didn’t you have a favor to ask? Just tell me. I’ll do it.”
Bonnie told him about Jim and asked for William’s help to keep Jim’s identity from the Knights.
“This isn’t a small job. The Knights are the wealthiest and most powerful family in Pyralis. If you want me to keep this from Ivor, it’s going to cost you.”
“Name your price,” she said.
“Are you seriously talking about a price? I thought we were closer than that!” William clutched hist left chest and acted as if he was hurt.
Bonnie felt a headache starting.
“Let’s do it this way. I’m going to Pyralis in a few days. I’ll be your guest, and you’ll have to make sure I have a good time there!”
“Done.”
“Oh. That’s right. A little birdie told me you’re engaged to Ivor!” As William said that, the good. humor on his face was replaced with a grim expression.
