Mothlina could only sigh at his response. Before he had come to attack them, their two parties had not had any interaction, and from what they had learned, Darius only came to be a few years ago.
He lacked the fear and hatred that the natives of Faust harbored towards them, so she believed him when he claimed, it wasn't exactly his choice to treat them in such a hostile manner.
Alas, this also cemented that there was no hope of reconciliation. Darius was under strict orders to eradicate them, so all they could do is resist or die.
Worst of all, killing him was out of the question, not only because they lacked the capability without Beelzebub, but also because they did not know what kind of repercussion they would suffer for it.
Mothlina slowly hovered back, her cute eyes darkening slightly. "A pity that we have met under these circumstances. Please, do not blame us for trying to protect ourselves, Lord Darius."
