Chapitre 180: Trying something reckless for power

Aito was shocked. Valinar had really lost her divine calm. Even though he couldn't hear her voice and only read her. He could feel she was quite pissed at him. 

'True that you've never harmed me. In fact, you've always helped me. But that's what I find suspicious about you. I can't help but be bothered by your divine presence. I can't trust you because I don't know what's going on in your mind. What you're plotting,' he said mentally. 

'Maybe with time I'll come to trust you. Fat chance of that happening, however, nothing is impossible. In the meantime, you have two choices. Stay by my side and try to gain my trust by helping me with your knowledge. Or remain by my side and be quiet for all eternity.' 

Valinar stopped replying for some time. An uncomfortable silence settled in the room as Aito waited for a reply. At some point, he wondered if she actually choose to remain silent forever until…

[I cannot tell you my goals,] she said.
