"If you're asking me to train you, then I have no issues with that so long as you make it worth my time," said Li. He pet the wyrm again, and she gave a curious glance to Azhar. "It's true that I don't exactly know how to raise her. She listens to me and is smart enough that I figure she won't get into trouble growing up, but I still owe it to her to raise her right.
For that, you'll be useful."
"You're sayin' yes?" said Azhar.
Li saw the surprise on his face. "You're surprised, are you? There's no need to be. Before, when you asked for my help, you were talking to me like I was a magic wand you could wave to have all your problems solved just like that." Li snapped his fingers. "That annoyed me, to be honest. But asking me for help to improve yourself? That, I'm far less opposed to."
