Mag looked at Merante, and calmly said, "We can work together, but I have three conditions."
"Name them." A gleam seemed to flash through Merante's white eyes.
"Firstly, after we cooperate, I will lead all our actions. You must work with me, and cannot work on your own.
"Secondly, our cooperation has to be completely secret. No third party can know about this. I think this is what you guys want too.
"Thirdly, Annie can provide one drop of blood essence, but other than that, you guys cannot make any other requests. Otherwise, I will use my methods to end this cooperation," Mag said calmly.
Merante pondered for a moment before he nodded seriously. "I agree to your conditions."
Noah's mouth was slightly agape. He didn't expect Merante would agree to such harsh conditions.
"To happy cooperation." Mag raised his teacup.
"To happy cooperation." Merante and Noah raised their cups too, and then finished the tea in one gulp.
