บท 78: Ch 79: Exchange - part 2

"Now, before I get you what you asked for, I would like to inform you that I cannot lend you my people for free. I would like to ask you something in return. If you cannot agree, our deal would have to be cut short."

The cardinal showed his real colors once they were alone.

Feeling the weight of the situation, Layla listened to the man's proposal before concluding.

"What do you want in return? If it is money, then I can pay you a decent amount. You might have to wait if it is supported since I don't have much of it now. If it is anything else, please let me know as well."

Layla spoke with confidence. 

She felt conflicted, but she did not show it on her face.

The cardinal fell quiet for a minute before his eyes sparked, and he looked at Raziel with an interested look.
