To be honest, Duanmu Huai was speechless when he heard the answer at first, and secondly—well, he really had nothing to say.
After all, he was doing the same thing right now.
And unlike Xingye Ai, Hei Chuan Chi Yin agreed with this even knowing the facts, so he was even more powerless.
But Duanmu Huai still had to ask.
"Why?"
"Because we don't want to die either."
Princess Noren spread her hands, making a helpless gesture.
"No matter what strength is binding us here, it's gradually weakening. Given that, I believe we should also make choices about our future. If we hadn't met the Brave Lord, maybe disappearing in slumber and praying to be reborn sometime in the future to live happily might be a way. But since the Brave Lord is here, we won't let this good opportunity slip away."
"Ha... Speaking of which, Chi Yin, are you okay with this?"
"Of course."
Hei Chuan Chi Yin nodded vigorously, her eyes firm.
"Even if it means making a deal with the Devil, I'm not afraid."
