"No." Without another thought, Atlas shook his head at the strange cat monster's request.
It roared in response, arching its back and waving its tail in the moonlight, causing Atlas' hair to raise upwards. He deduced that the monster was stronger than him, not by a few levels but at least another Stage.
"May I ask why?" the harsh voice asked again after calming down.
Atlas himself calmed down and gathered his thoughts, seeing as Apollo was there to protect him.
"You're a killer. Not just a killer. You killed innocent people. I'm not some super humanist or whatever they like to call it these days, but that is not something I can easily accept."
The cat was silent for a few seconds, then roared again, transmitting its harsh voice.
"I guess I'll just have to show you then!"
