You also know the rules of this valley. Only after bleeding for a common goal can you become one of us. I hope you'll rejoin us, not appear before me as some damned vampire's servant, proclaiming your master's orders.
Damned!
I haven't even met him!
Why should I answer his summons and obey him?
Adel, do you think what you're asking me to do is something a true leader should agree to? I'm using you, but aren't you also leveraging our childhood bond to coerce me?
Open your eyes and see—we're not young anymore!
We're no longer children sealing promises with pinky swears. Let's be realistic! If you want something, you have to give something first.
Help me truly take power, Adel.
I'll give you and your master a satisfactory answer.
The Shadow Intelligence Officer was left slightly speechless by this exchange. She gazed at Lisa, who stood with her arms crossed before her. After a few seconds of silence, Adel spoke:
"You're afraid of me."
"Hmm?"
