'Hmm...this is hard,' Desire thought as his face turned into a frown.
After all, this was indeed a hard decision to make. There was also the possibility of Lionel not liking it if Desire just decided to take the elves under the Lion Clan's wing.
No, Lionel was guaranteed to get angry as this move would just make more enemies for him when it could have been avoided.
It's not like the elves were his responsibility or something like that.
Lionel was definitely a good man, but not to strangers and definitely not to his enemies.
Desire is bound to get his ass whooped by Lionel if he made some reckless decisions such as taking the elves under the Lion Clan's wing.
What's more, Lionel wouldn't be able to chase the elves away once Desire agrees to take them in.
If Lionel did chase the elves away, that would make the public look at Desire as foolish since his own master does not look at his decisions kindly.
