Serf turned to look at the shoal of colored puffed fishe, and said ”This was the redients of the black pill The poison gets stronger the closer they get to a purplish color My family uses the blue ones”
”If you have to use theet a purple one The difficulty of cooking it is the same, but they tasteout an aard laugh

”Maybe a bit Look, every single fa a poison which can bring glory to their family And death to billions of people Our fa an antidote for the poison we already have If actually finding a poison didn'tmore power to a family of mass murderers I would be a lot more enthusiast about this” Said Serf with a defeatist tone
”It seems to me that for you, the best case scenario would be to join another group And for your family to lose power and credibility” Muttered Daniel with a tone just high enough for Serf to hear it
Without turning to look back at him, Serf said ” our family, brother” Said a irl walked into Daniel and Serf's field of view
Naturally, Serf recognized this voice way before his sister appeared from the corner
”Don't be silly, sister” Said Serf after approaching Alana along with Daniel, and stopping right in front of her
Alana turned to look at Daniel, and after looking him up and down once, she looked back at Serf, and said ”Aren't you going to introduce me to your friend?”
