[ How is it that there is a mage that thinks this way?
He cannot help but think it is a little disturbing, to say the least. The way that Flat thinks is just like an average person might think. But there is something about the brightness that the other speaks; there is something about the way the young man's eyes shine when he looks at him.
There is something in those things that makes Kirei hesitate. The hesitation lasts just for a second before he speaks: ]
I think that you misunderstand the relationships that you see around you, Flat Escardos. There is no friendship with mages. There is no friendship with the Clock Tower and the Holy Church. There is only give-and-take. There is only a mutual benefit to be had. [ A beat. ] Do not mistake amicable relations to be friendship.
Or I fear that you will end up dead sooner rather than later.
