Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 815

Denise calmly cocked a brow upon hearing the words. “That's why the same applies to them. Given the possibility of the matter escalating, it is impossible to just let it slide.”

Kyle's eyes darkened in response. “This is different. He is now alone, and we have the backing of Darknetz!”

“Not necessarily. You just said so yourself that he has a group of die-hard followers. If Darknetz were to strike, these men would not stand idly by and watch,” Denise rebutted him.

She had tried her best to tolerate Kyle's maligning of her father and pretended not to care. Yet, Kyle's increasingly arrogant words had crossed her threshold. After all, that was her beloved father the former was disparaging.

Nonetheless, Kyle didn't think much of it as he refuted her, “That's why I don't think there's a solution to the issue yet.”

Denise raised her brows. “In that case, there's no need to solve it at all.”

Her statement confounded Kyle.

Why do I sense something amiss?

His eyes narrowed at Denise. “Why are you speaking strangely? Whose side are you on anyway?”

“I...” Staring back at him, Denise realized that she had almost forgotten that she was a member of Darknetz after getting carried away. With that thought in mind, she changed her tact by declaring with a smile, “On our side, of course!”

“But you don't sound like you are!” Kyle countered.

“Exactly! I'm thinking from their perspective. Only by knowing what the enemy thinks can we defeat them. Haven't you heard of the saying 'know thy enemy' before?” Denise threw the question back at him. “All I'm doing is reminding everyone not to underestimate the enemy. What if he didn't retire and grew more powerful instead?”

Her words drew a suspicious look from Kyle. Despite having doubts about her stance and attitude, he didn't think too much about it on the account that she was still a child.

As for the points she raised, he did see the reason in them.

“We can't discount that possibility. After all, it wouldn't be easy for someone like him to retire,” Kyle commented.

Denise nodded in agreement. “That's what I thought.”

After taking a deep breath, Kyle retracted his gaze and looked at them. “Enough talk of this. No matter what, you guys shouldn't bother yourself with DX. It's also for the sake of your own safety,” He finally concluded the discussion with a brief summary.

Despite exchanging glances with each other, Benjamin, Anthony, and Denise didn't comment any further.

It was then that Kyle looked in Miguel's direction and asked abruptly, “By the way, who is this?”

“I...” Sitting opposite Kyle, Miguel had no idea how to introduce himself.

He sensed a potential problem after listening to their conversation. Although he was considered a member of DX, it wasn't official. Thus, he was afraid of having his head lopped off in the event his identity was discovered.

“Oh, he's my apprentice.” Anthony took over the introductions.

Miguel nodded immediately, “That's right. I'm his apprentice.”

“Since when do you have one?” Kyle asked.

“What's wrong? Is there a problem?” Anthony retorted.

“No, you're invincible. Whatever you say goes,” Kyle replied.

Before Anthony could breathe a sigh of relief, Kyle added, “When will he be joining us?”
