[…What could you have offered them to bring them out of hiding?]
"Oh, that? I simply offered them items they'd wanted for years, showed them places they'd been seeking, and granted a few other favours to make them owe me.
I also promised that even after lending their aid, they'd remain 'Veiled' and neither their nations nor 'The Five' would try to control them."
[That's a bold claim,] Rizass responded. [You say you can make 'The Five' follow your bidding. Is that because of the relationship you have with Rathal and Kolvar? I hear you're quite close with Kolvar's little boy.]
At that, Evan shook his head.
"I wouldn't deny that I was counting on that at first, but now, it's just one of many ways I can make 'The Five' comply."
[Comply, huh? Very well. Now explain why you want me to face the Demonic Hand's Fifth Executive.]
"Because I want you to take the chance to become a Transcendent, start comprehending universal laws, and get closer to realising an Authority."
