I'll Abandon the Fake Savior (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 96

“Oh… Who might this be?”

The man known as the King of Rats let out a rough, guttural laugh. The teeth revealed between his upturned lips were startlingly white, unlike his otherwise disheveled appearance.

‘Could Ivan’s rumor really be true? The one claiming the King of Rats might once have been a noble?’
