\'Light magic, huh...\' I narrowed my eyes at him before glancing at River again with a questioning glance.

She seemed to have realized my glance causing her neutral face to stiffen up a little before a mischievous smile appeared on her face. Simultaneously, her eyes started to glow as well, making the inner side of her bangs glisten in emerald light that no one realized.

"Lilith? Why are your eyes all weird now?" Zaji tilted his head to the side a little.

I had completely forgotten what would happen when I activate analysis, so therefore I had activated it without thinking about it much since no one else ever mentioned it when I had used it, which was probably because they were about to be killed but that is beside the point.

"Oh, sorry about that. I was just checking how powerful all of you are" I smiled behind my mask before looking at River again who\'s eyes had started to dim down again from their bright emerald back to normal green. Yet, when she saw me lay eyes on her once again after talking about checking their power levels, a visible frown furrowed her brows.

"Really? Well, we don\'t have time to be talking about all that. Right now we should talk about the deal Zaji had proposed earlier." Raquaz sat down with a more calm and collected nature in complete contrast to his fiery childish personality from before.

"Sure" I stat down as well before tapping June who had almost dozed off while resting her head on the palm of her hand.

*thud* "Ouch!" She exclaimed before rubbing her forehead that she had just hit on the table like an angry child.

Smiling at her behavior, I looked back towards the party and asked "What are your conditions for this temporary companionship?" 

Raquaz raised a single finger before saying "How about this... We have a 70/30 split of the money, us getting the 70 because we are 7 people while you guys are too, so you can split it 15% each"

The moment the word 15% left his mouth, I was in utter shock. I could not move nor speak, however, all they saw was me widen my eyes while June blinked a few times and looked at me with questioning eyes, as if I was the stronger one out of the two of us so, therefore, should be the leader.

Regaining my composure, I looked at her and asked "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Uh- Uhm... Don\'t get cocky! I am making the decisions here! Don\'t think you are the leader all of a sudden just because I am allowing you to take the lead!" She harumphed

"... I didn\'t say anything..." I had become speechless for the umpteenth time today.

"Sh-shut up!" She slammed her fist on the table.

\'Is she a toddler?\'

[Mentally, maybe...]

"So what do you think of our deal, you like it?" Zaji smiled goofily, making me return to what I was thinking about first just to go into another daze forcing me to activate Mine-influx once again.

\'Did they really just say 30%?\' I was speechless

[Yes, are you deaf?]

\'...\'

[What?]

\'Tell me, do I look like an idiot to you?\' I asked with a solemn smile

[Yes]

\'...\'

[...]

\'THEY ARE TRYING TO SCAM ME! WHAT THE FUCK IS 30% WHEN ALL TRHEY WILL DO IS GRAB ALL THE PEOPLE INSIDE AND RUN! WE DON\'T NEED THEM!\' I screamed inwardly

[Well, burly man, captain and that emerald bitch are all much stronger than you, especially that emerald bitch are much stronger than you. The only way I see you beat any of them is by using everything you have, and even then I don\'t you think you can beat the emerald bitch.]

\'So you are saying that I should accept their deal?\'

[No! Are you stupid? I said it is a good deal but I am sure you can bargain your way up to 40%]

\'sure\' I smiled warmly this time, however, a mischievous glint flashed in my eyes.

"How about 50%?" I tapped the table with my finger

"50%!" I heard Sandra shout in outrage.

"What makes you think you two are worth 50% of the mission payment?" Xolder scoffed. with hints of contempt while River to his side looked at me with curiosity and eagerness to know what I was about to say next

"Well, at first, June over here is as strong as your party captain which already means a lot. I am guessing all of you would be splitting the commissions depending on how much one would contribute. The two mages are not going to get more than 10%, while the captain and burly over there will be getting the most, if not 20% each. That means that June is entitled at least as much as the captain if not more for being the defense alongside Requice over there." My voice oozed confidence and arrogance, a combination of two similar things, yet completely different when looked at from different perspectives.

I was emanating with pride.

"Okay, let\'s say we gave June 20%, since she isn\'t the captain, I am-"

"So you are saying you would get more than 20% when from the total commission?" I sneered and cut off Raquaz as I lifted my feet and placed them on the table.

"Y-yes... I get 25% whenever we give away 30%" He replied with a tinge of nervousness.

Observing him, I could see a drop of sweat trickling down his forehead while he kept rubbing the silver ring on his ring finger. At the same time, I could see his nails were uneven and slightly crooked, allowing me to conclude he had a nail-biting problem that might have been caused by stress.

\'Scar, nails, sweat, eyes darting towards wife, the person he loves most. Rubbing ring, the thing he treasures most, not his sword. A light-hearted personality means he wants people to be happy. Signs of depression + Anxiety. He does not fear death, but he fears...\' I grinned behind the mask, something I felt the emerald-eyed beauty reacted to.

"Even if I give June 20%, what makes you think you are worth 30?" Raquaz was now completely serious while everyone else was watching with full concentration. On the side was Zaji sweating buckets as he watched what was happening before him, the only thing going through his mind being-

\'What the hell did I do!?\'
