“Absolutely, Nikki! You handed the master the cursed scroll but presented the genuine treasure to this foul man. You’re lower than a dog!”

“I believed in your loyalty, yet you’ve revealed your heartlessness through this betrayal of our master!”

“Don’t pretend any longer, your hypocrisy is sickening!”
