" Many years ago, at a meeting to discuss how to deal with the elves, a few other mages and I raised different opinions.
"My idea was to kill all the disobedient elves, but Soria thought that I was too extreme.
"She felt that we only needed to kill half of them.
"The idea of that pedantic old man, Link, was to propose an open and fair magic duel to the higher-ups of the elf race and make them obediently accept their fate by showing our muscles.
"Edmond's suggestion was to try to turn enemies into friends.
"If he really couldn't do it, he would first incite internal strife among the elves and then attract the invasion of external evil forces.
"For example, Abyssal Demons.
"When the elves are almost completely massacred by the demons, we will descend as saviours.
"In the end, everyone unanimously objected to the proposal.
"Everyone felt that it was too troublesome.
"If you were there, which plan would you prefer?"
