"Well, just because we have access to these Fiends doesn't mean that they'll actually help us, you know that right? I have a feeling the only way we get help from Ka'Hondi is you beating them in a duel, which we have no idea what that will be like. Even Mom doesn't really know what that duel will be like for you since you have Light Mana, and Ka'Hondi seems rather... agitated by that."
Everyone sighed at that, with Jahi burying her face between my ears once more as she thought about that too, the weight of being the Heir to a House like the Asmodia House settling onto her broad shoulders once more.
She was more than capable of carrying that weight and dealing with it on her own, and of course she wasn't actually alone with that weight; we were here to ease her burden as much as possible, even if she wanted to be stubborn sometimes and try to shoulder it all herself.
