"So that's how you do it…" I mused at the Off-Worlder.
He frowned at me, "Is this not what you are after at all?"
"No? I didn't even know such a thing existed before you pointed it out. Are you telling me there's even more of it in the world?"
He narrowed his eyes at me, "I would assume so, since you have one yourself, don't you?"
"No I don't? What even gave you the idea that I had one?"
"How else did you suddenly power yourself up?! With all my puppets combined together, my strength goes beyond a thousand!! Even if you buff yourself, you wouldn't be able to hit a thousand in strength just by that!!"
Hmm… So that many buffs bump me up by more than twice my strength, good to know.
I decided not to tell him about my Shadow Guards and nodded at him, "So what's your deal then? Why are you doing this and, more importantly, why the hell were you speaking so weirdly before?"
"Why do I have to tell you anything?"
This bastard…
