When it came to encountering Dainsleif, Cid and the fiery fluffy little brother had actually already formulated a solution from the very beginning.
"No, human, you cursed me to run into that lunatic Dainsleif?"
"It's not a curse. I just felt we needed to prepare for the worst."
"Then fine. How do we solve it?"
"I suggest surrendering."
"Hah? You want me to betray His Highness the Prince? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Alright, then let me ask you—what messages has your Prince told you?"
"Hm? Human, what do you mean? I can't say anything!"
"Sigh… Then just say a little of what you can say. For example… the Loom of Fate…?"
"Ah…?"
The fiery fluffy little brother revealed an extremely clear gaze.
Cid fell silent.
Forget it. You fiery fluffy little brother who only knows how to wear your big brother-in-law's red panties and do a little dance should just rest.
Can't blame you. Who would tell such important information to a subordinate who likes stealing his own red panties to dance?
Be good. Go play.
I'll go negotiate with Dainsleif later.
"It's fine. When the time comes, just surrender. I know that your Prince really values confidentiality when it comes to hiding plans."
"Indeed, His Highness the Prince really likes keeping secrets… Wait, that's not right! Human, why do you know things I don't know! Which of us two is actually from the Abyss camp!?"
"Relax, relax. Anyway, the plan was exposed by me. It has nothing to do with you. Just surrender and I'll guarantee you'll keep your little life."
"Hey! Human! What do you mean the plan was exposed by you?! What are you hiding?!"
"Ehehe, as a Descender it's normal to know a few more things~"
"Ehehe your big head ghost!"
"Anyway, do you want something that can save your life while also preserving your reputation?"
The fiery fluffy little brother was silent for a moment.
His tone was ultimately very firm.
"I want it."
So the matter of surrendering the moment Dainsleif appeared had been premeditated for a long time.
"I think you two are definitely hiding something from me. Tell me, what are you hiding?"
Dainsleif used flames to entertain the fiery fluffy little brother with torture.
"Ow ow ow!!! I can't say it! I will never betray His Highness the Prince!"
The fiery fluffy little brother's little feet jumped extremely fast—much more dashing than when he was doing his little dance before.
Cid fell silent.
For some reason, he felt like he was being ignored.
"Um, Mr. Dainsleif, why don't you ask me instead?"
"No need. I can tell that your understanding of the Abyss isn't much. The aura on your body all comes from it anyway."
For some reason, Cid felt that Dainsleif seemed a bit polite toward him.
This made Cid feel a little dazed for a moment.
"Still not talking?"
He increased the firepower.
"I will never betray His Highness the Prince!"
He increased the firepower again.
"Are you going to talk or not?"
"I don't know!"
"Very well. I admire your mouth. Then next I'm going to step on the gas."
The flames in Dainsleif's hand became even more abyssal.
At this moment Cid also reacted.
"Mr. Dainsleif, he might really not know anything. Why don't you just ask me?"
"I don't believe it. You don't know as much as he does, and Abyss Mages are extremely cunning. Seeing how clear-headed you are, you were probably just deceived.
It's fine. Let me interrogate him first. Anyway, when you encounter the Abyss Order, going through the process first won't be a problem."
Dainsleif fiercely whipped the fiery fluffy little brother…
"I really don't know!!!"
The fiery fluffy little brother's crying voice could be said to move heaven and earth.
