"You are their disciple. So, naturally..."
Thomas was just about to explain things when Vi suddenly cut in, "Ugh... Don't mention it. I'm not a disciple of those bastards who tortured me. I would rather die than accept them as my masters." He took a moment of pause before he replied with a wide shameless smile, "But these gifts you are talking about, I will gladly accept them."
"..." Thomas suddenly found it hard to reply. His master refused to accept those great characters as his masters, but he said that he would gladly accept their gifts? Why could he feel that their master was a bit too...
"Alright, alright, everything makes sense to me now." Before Thomas could think of other much better words to describe the shamelessness of his master, this master of his suddenly spoke again. His voice was lively and full of joy. It was obvious that learning about the "gifts" had put him in his best mood.
