That's kind of you to do, but unfortunately I'll worry regardless. That's just what friends do.
[ They're friends now, sorry Eresh. ]
But I agree with you. There's no ideal outcome here, there will be losses sustained regardless of what decision we make as a group, but the fact that so many people are willing to disregard both their own safety as well as the livelihoods of those who are already struggling in Seoul is....disappointing.
[ But maybe this all just hits too close to home for him. ]
[ Weh. Thank goodness he can't see how emotional she is through text! ]
To help the people now and hope we can stop the Kaiju before it retaliates with its offspring is a risk. But humanity is defined by such risks, taken in the name of protecting something precious: life. It is worrisome most here are unwilling to take that risk.
I must also warn you. I do not know how much you read, but know there are enemies of humanity amongst our ranks. Though they are currently fighting alongside us... It is abundantly clear they will turn on us and humanity if given the chance.
Yes. It is possible LILITH is becoming more desperate and less selective.
I am working on ways to neutralize them should they ever become a threat. I shall make sure my plans are passed on to you and a few other people I trust, in the eventually anything happens to me.
Are you working with anyone else on these plans? You shouldn't have to do it alone.
[ Not that he can help much since he's only a(n Ereshkigal voice) fragile human, but surely there are others more powerful that would be willing to contribute. ]
[ Being a fragile human is a good thing! Though she's also kind of hypocritical calling humans fragile when she speaks so highly of them, but details. ]
Besides, none of this matters until I've recovered enough mana.
[ Oh thank goodness, he hasn't read that part of her messages on Ratio's post. She can course correct by making sure not to drop a single mention of the Fate/ special. ]
Finding someone suitable to contract with would possibly do the trick. I still wouldn't be able to transform without my own personal mana reserves, but all of my other abilities would be accessible anytime.
But as I explained last time, finding someone I can trust unconditionally and who would be willing to enter such an exhausting contract is no small feat.
[ Wow, what if he wants to hear about the Fate/ special. :( ]
I understand. Opening yourself to others and being able to trust them unconditionally in that way....it's difficult. But I hope you're able to find someone to form that sort of connection with. For all that there are some questionable eggs in the bunch here, there are also some good ones.
... I have found a few people I trust. You are one of them. I have been here for only a short time, yet I have made so many more connection here in six months than I have in the course of millennia.
[ And she's really grateful for that. Asking anything more from them would feel like being too much of a burden. In fact: ]
You said you've been better, haven't not? Shouldn't you rest rather than listen to an old goddess' woes?
You are exceedingly kind and selfless, Wriothesley.
It is still my hope that I will be to help you in the same ways you have helped me. Not as a thanks, but because you are deserving of happiness as well.

You've read my messages on the doctor's post, haven't you?

I agree with all your points, for the record.

And, please accept my apologies for attempting to deceive you. I merely didn't want for you to worry.

'Enemies of humanity'? Isn't the whole purpose of our mission here to defeat the kaiju in order to protect the people of the various countries?

Is time still the only thing that'll restore your mana? That you're willing to do, that is.

I shall have to find an appropriate way to thank you. Such kindness is still something I am getting accustomed and should not go unrewarded.

But I appreciate it. If there's ever anything you can help me with, I'll be sure to let you know.

Too many are the humans who do.
