Wolf Person Nash...uh, no, Wolf Person Hog didn't take as long as one might imagine to make a decision.
On the one hand, perhaps because even though the Wolf People have unlocked their intellect, it's hard for them to engage in complicated thoughts without formal education. After all, having a talent and being able to use it effectively are two different things.
On the other hand, this Wolf Person wasn't sure if the vampire had cast some "evil spell" on him.
After he was locked in the cage, his thoughts became abnormally active, as if a brainstorm was raging, that terrible state where he couldn't even pause to think, as if something inside his heart had been "ignited."
Murphy's words kept echoing in his mind, stirring up the thoughts of this cunning but wiry Wolf Person.
He could clearly feel his mind in an unusually agitated state, even starting to fight what little rationale he had left.
