Lin Fan knitted his brows before asking, "You're saying that she's part of the neutral faction as well?"

Momonga gave a nod as he explained, "The spirits are pacifists by nature and unless you invade their territory, there's no reason for them to fight."

Lin Fan knitted his brows even more when he heard this as he said, "That makes even less sense then. If they are attacked at a time like this, wouldn't that just push them to the other side? Who would be foolish enough to do this?"

Momonga didn't answer those questions right away as he said instead, "The humans have been slowly becoming stronger, so much so that they are starting to turn the tides against the demon beasts. If at this time they were to hear a rumour that the neutral factions wanted to make a move, what do you think they would do?"
