Frankly speaking, Rheia's attempt at explaining was like trying to cover fire with a dry blanket. If she had not gone deeper, things would have been fine. Now that she had explained it, most sane mercenary groups would not even bother with the suicidal request. It was clear that the young mage was not the type to peddle snake oil, and she would do better at cursing someone to their face. But today was Rheia's lucky day. Not only did she find a group of "mercenaries" who were brave enough to take requests, but they seemed to be totally clueless about the Great Pit.
Hao Ren did not realize Rheia's tone as he was busy thinking about how he could get more information on the world from the little mage. He nodded without much thought because the latter's explanation went into the left ear and out the right. "Ah, that's fine, that's fine. Danger is a part of the course..."
