Mint had indeed shown ample "sincerity."
During her subsequent conversation with Lin Xiaolu, she said that although she had not directly participated in Black Ash Dawn's operation this time, she could provide a list of the "Beast Children" involved in the assessment. In other words, as long as the Research Institute and Magic Affairs Institute kept a close eye on these Beast Children's actions during the assessment, they would surely uncover something.
However, in exchange, Mint hoped that the Kingdom's side would not alert the enemy.
—"I don't want the organization to find out about this 'betrayal' of mine."
She stated her thoughts to Lin Xiaolu very plainly. "If the Kingdom moves too quickly, they'll easily realize that I was the one who leaked the list. Even as a Beast Child, I'd face a very severe purge."
"Once we sweep up all these people who infiltrated the Kingdom, couldn't you just stay here? Black Ash Dawn wouldn't make a special trip to the Kingdom to take revenge on you, would they?" Lin Xiaolu asked in return.
"Black Ash Dawn is never short on lunatics, especially people from the Advent Faction and the Restoration Faction. If they really decide that I ruined their plans, then I'm afraid I'll never have another peaceful day for the rest of my life."
Mint finished the drink in front of her and listlessly stirred the ice cubes with her straw. "Besides, my parents are still in the Material Realm."
"...Ah." Lin Xiaolu immediately fell silent.
No further explanation was needed. As a Magical Girl, she understood Mint's concerns very well.
"Without a doubt, I'm a very selfish person."
Seeing that Lin Xiaolu did not respond, Mint continued, "I want my family to be safe, and I want my own future life to be happy enough.
