Gardenia became surprised, not expecting ethics to come out of demons. But it confirmed one thing for her, and that was that the Lord and the generals under him are a rare sort of bunch.
Gardenia appeared humble, seeing Ragnar being polite to her. "No, it's fine. This was all just a misunderstanding. I hope you can take your troops back to your base."
"I will, but before that, I want to ask something." Ragnar stared into Gardenia's eyes. "Want to join us?"
Gardenia's eyes widened dumbfoundedly, but eventually she calmed down, as this was expected. Every demon lord would try to expand their forces as much as possible; it didn't matter if the other party was willing to do so or not; they would coarse them in some way to join them.
So, Gardenia could already guess what Ragnar might do to her. Still, she tried to see if they were different. "What if I don't want to?"
