Aurolio turned paler than the word itself. His skin adopted a pearly white hue when this guidance field notification was coupled with a set of words – his words – rang through his mind, making the process of piecing together the truth much quicker and yet... much more confusing:
"I'm not one for hostility, but I like to keep my ego on a high pedestal above Lady Aigas' ass where it belongs. So I won't hesitate to kill if it's challenged or ridiculed. That said, as I mentioned earlier, I will refrain from doing you any harm if you help me procure Null beasts to raise my level."
Yes.
Yes indeed he had said this.
But that was to Festos!
