Mordecai looked like he wanted to argue, but he slowly nodded after a moment. "That makes sense..."
"If your lust manipulation system can turn members of his harem against him, that would be better than fighting him directly."
Rex grinned, hidden behind his mask. It was easy to convince Mordecai, which was a little strange but also made sense judging by his whole character.
The demon lord seemed to take explanations at face value and not look for flaws in the reasoning or go deeper. That could have been a sign that they were trying to build trust, or it could have been proof that Mordecai really wasn't very good at thinking critically.
'It seems like I need to take back about all of my thoughts about him and calculate things...'
Rex was leaning toward the latter based on everything else he'd seen. Mordecai had power from his gacha system, but he didn't have the strategic cunning or paranoia that someone in his position should have by now.
