Jaixe smiled, even further amused by this robed knight than before. He had almost entirely forgotten the previous incident in favor of indulging his own curiosity now. He listened to how Raal replied, discerning the key details from the useless wordiness, as was the object of the game of intellectual debates and confrontations. It was a contest of sharpness, where one would corner the other in an attempt to persuade them to their way of thinking with as little effort as possible.
And this dark knight knew how to play, and Jaixe enjoyed that fact to its utmost. Previously, in his life outside of the Omniverse, the only one he could hold a fair conversation with tended to be his enemies, which went on and on about light and how they would defeat him. He was deprived of these games. Now he had, what he assumed, a rare chance to play it.
“Oh, but you are a simple tool for my knowledge to be expanded. You yet speak with me. Still, you hold some more that I may require, and for that I would be willing to hear your proposal as adequate payment. I do not expect one of intelligence to so freely offer themselves as a slave, nor would I trust information that was so freely given.” Jaixe responded casually to Raal, now donning a more even expression rather than a somewhat amused one. “Though, I won’t be a pawn of yours either. I have no interest in sacrificing my own freedoms for the sake of knowledge I could gather myself given time. Your mind is not that valuable to me.”
