Pebble's strategy was great.
Play through the wyvern's pride, and use it against it in order to convince it to form a Will. It was great and all, with Pebble picking up a few things here and there from me, but...
'Did you seriously have to throw shots at me like that?'
I understand that Delilah was exceptional. She was likely among the top ten strongest people in the world. Only a few individuals were probably stronger than her, and most of them were old monsters on the verge of death or had lived for more than a human's natural lifespan.
She was young and had an entire future ahead.
She was great…
"Kh."
'It's frustrating that I can't even argue back.'
Indeed, if the wyvern signed a pact with Delilah, it would have something that Pebble didn't have, which was… a better host.
'…Damn, cat.'
In spite of my inner turmoil, I didn't show anything on the outside. I merely looked at Pebble with eyes slightly more narrowed than usual.
