They found themselves at an impasse already. Though Rui was not surprised that they did, considering that they didn't have the exact same priorities at every level.
He tried to go for another approach. "Do you truly want me to use Authority of Alpha against therianthropes? That's a lot of power. How do you know that I won't use it against you?"
Lord Vakratunda smiled with a hint of amusement.
"Because you asked that question. If you truly had any intentions of doing that, you wouldn't fight so hard against using the Authority of Alpha against our people. You're just saying this because you want to fight the Dragon Emperor, which is your true motivation."
Rui was surprised that he was willing to put so much faith in game theory. It was entirely possible that Rui would use his Authority of Alpha to enslave the continent, but for some reason, Lord Vakratunda didn't seem too concerned over the matter.
