It took a few minutes but at the end of it, Amelia Black had no choice but to comply with my request.
"Fine, I surrender my position as the Head Strategist to you."
She gave it up. She gave her position to me.
It took all of the willpower I had in me not to burst out into a peal of evil erratic laughter right then and there.
I did it. I broke her! …A little.
Amelia, in the novel, would've never given up her position to Lucas. She would've rather preferred losing than doing this.
But right here, right now, Amelia Black willingly gave up her position to me, Lucas Morningstar!
Heh!
I don't know why but it gave me a weird sense of satisfaction.
Beep—!
-[Amelia, you there? Do you have a plan? Anything! The enemy has blocked our path ahead! Once their main force catches us from behind, we'll be done for–]
Ah, anyway, now that I got the position I had wanted from the start, I should get working.
