However, Angel's well-laid plans fell through.
When Magu brought Dangross over and explained the situation, Dangross initially showed a defiant attitude, refusing to participate, leading Angel to consider having Magu appoint another guide. But Dangross didn't maintain its standoffish stance for long. Soon enough, it completely changed its mind, appearing as if to say, "Since you've pleaded so desperately and need me, I'll condescend to agree."
Once Dangross agreed, its previous aloof and standoffish demeanor transformed into that of a sycophant. Its new target of flattery was naturally Toby, who was perched on Angel's shoulder.
It showered Toby with compliments, as if they cost nothing.
Seeing Dangross like this, Angel understood that its earlier pretentious stance was purely a bluff. Because with Toby here, the likelihood of it agreeing was already over seventy percent.
