"What did you ask him?"
Heine asked.
At the same moment, Huihui recounted that part to him as well.
Huihui, "I asked him, 'If Makala's research is successful in curing the lich, would you possibly stand with us?'"
Hiss...
Heine felt as though his heart was being fiercely squeezed.
That was harsh!
Directly turning a Ninth Level Lich to one's own side, could that even be done?
But upon further thought, had it been him, he likely would have asked the same.
"How did he respond?" he asked hastily.
Huihui, "He didn't answer directly, just said that he would reseal everything that happened today, just as before. In other words, nothing happened today—this is the key to not being noticed by Sanatos.
"Then, if we really do accomplish some things in the future, and if Makala can grow strong enough to reactivate that memory, then he will naturally give an answer."
"I see…"
Heine pondered.
This was essentially the same as agreeing.
And Vega hadn't "not come" entirely.
