A moment of silence flew by with everyone looking at Gorthok.
"I know you're confused." Gorthok uttered, touching between his eyes. "Me, the person who's supposed to be your master, asking for a truce? What the hell am I thinking?" He added with a smirk.
Liora blinked in confusion, hands slightly shaking as she tried to clench a fist in them, trying to mask her subtle fear.
Meanwhile, the man was looking down, afraid to make direct eye contact with Gorthok, as Lio was looking at Sedric's sword lying next to Gorthok. As for Hajime, he kept his gaze on Gorthok, face expression slightly annoyed.
"To tell you the truth. The idea of me asking for a truce never closed my mind, because I always thought I could handle everything by myself as long as I had power, but as it turned out, greed got the best of me. I couldn't see what was in front of me, until it was gone. And now... Now I need your help.
