Don't Let Ghosts Distract Us

Victor met Axton's words with a knowing smile, "I must admit, it's surprising. The renowned Demon Rippers seeking an alliance? Rumor has it you folks prefer to work solo."

Axton's mouth curled into a brief grin, "Never set such a hard rule, Sir Victor. In situations like these, it's always better to make friends, don't you think?"

"Just give me a moment," Victor said as he gestured with his forefinger.

His smile never wavered as he turned to his team, "We could benefit greatly from this," he murmured to Rachel, "The Demon Rippers may be a bit unorthodox, yes, but also powerful."

Rachel crossed her arms as her expression became hesitant and contemplative. It seemed like she was struggling to weigh the pros and cons.

Amelia was quick to voice her dissent, her eyes briefly shooting daggers at the group of men, "We shouldn't align ourselves with these...savages. They are as disgusting and monstrous as the demons they hunt."
