Smirks, his voice a growl "Enjoy the display? Your sister's demise was... exhilarating."
Let's keep this alliance going then. It seems we have a common enemy in form of the humanity!
"Agreed, but don't think for a second that I trust you, Steinfort. You may have saved me once, but I won't forget this alliance is temporary."
Sure, sure... as long as both of us get what we want. But I think it would be nice if you could show your gratitude in another way. A little more personal. You know what I mean.
"Gratitude? How dare you suggest that I owe you anything. I've already given you my assistance, and that should be enough.
But I still remember that time when you saved me from those hunters... Hmm.. You see, I always thought about that moment... And now I know how to repay that debt.
"Repaying a debt?! Don't flatter yourself, Steinfort. I didn't save you out of obligation or pity. I did it because it suited me at the time."
Maybe. But since that day, I have had the time of my life to prepare myself. And now that our enemies are the same, why don't we start something more interesting... together? š
Oni King raises an eyebrow, his demonic aura pulsating as he leans in closer "And what exactly do you have in mind, Steinfort?"
Are you really asking? š¤ Well, I just happen to need some items from you to finish the preparations. But I am willing to give you a glimpse of how grateful I am before I go... you know, make you forget about all the pain I caused you. š
Oni King smirks, his eyes gleaming with curiosity "Very well, Steinfort. Show me what you've got in mind. But remember, I won't be easily swayed."
Alright. First we'll need to get the poison from your henchmen that killed my sister. We also will need the mask of the bounty hunter that was supposed to kill you last month. Let's head out then.
"Fine, but don't think for a second that this means I'm weak or vulnerable. We'll get those items, but remember, I call the shots here.
Sure, whatever you say. After all, we only help each other because we both want to destroy humanity. But you said we shall not turn our backs on each other. Is this because you might be vulnerable at any point? He asks
"Vulnerable? Me? Don't underestimate me, Steinfort. I am the predator, the one who rules this world.
Then don't worry, you wouldn't want to turn your back on me either since I might surprise you as well. And that concludes our alliance, between two hunters, bound by revenge. So let's get started, shall we?
"Very well, Steinfort. Our alliance may be temporary, but it's true that revenge binds us together. Let's go and retrieve those items you need.
Yes. Good that we agree. He takes off the helmet, revealing himself without the mask I shall take lead since I was part of the group that raided your place a month ago. He cracks his knuckles
"You think taking the lead makes you superior, don't you? Don't mistake my tolerance for weakness, Steinfort. I am the one calling the shots here.
"But I suppose it wouldn't hurt to let you take the lead this time. Show me what you're capable of, Steinfort."
Chuckles As you wish. Lead the way then. š
Oni King leads the way, his demonic aura radiating behind him as they venture deeper into the labyrinthine fortress
"It seems we have company, Steinfort. Brace yourself." Oni King's eyes glow red as he prepares for battle
