Chapter 37: Protection

(Opium): why are you trying to protect him ? You hate him.
(Louis): not as much as you Opium. He did nothing and he is only a child.
(Opium): child or not, he succeeded in breaking my spell.
(Louis): you always told me that you respected the strong people !
(Opium): do I respect you..?
(Arthur): do you think he's strong ? Bahaha, and then what else.
(Eurus) whispers: what are we doing ?
(Nomad): nothing. There is nothing to do at these times. Just let them finish.
(Arthur): makes others come back instead of talking to nothing.
(Opium): I understand why you hate him so much now.

The atmosphere becomes heavy, Opium decides to put an end to the young elite. He is about to give him a blow, the little one is about to defend himself.

(William): Louis stop it !
(Arthur): well then...are you deflating ?
(Opium): drop that blade Louis.
(Eurus): what's going on ?
(Perth): Are you two okay ?
(Nomad): don't worry. One spell cancels another, it is a rule among shadows. He wanted to get rid of Arthur so it woke them up...
(Louis): I don't have a choice apparently. This has to stop. You have become unmanageable Opium.
(Sebastiane): think about my son, why do such a thing ?
(Louis): if I die he also dies. You will be rid of it.
(Bhaal): but we don't want to get rid of you.
(Biakhov): Bhaal is right. You can't do that.
(Opium): are you really going to kill yourself to protect them ?
(Louis): you don't give me a choice.
(Curtis): Why are you so scared ?
(Opium): I beg your pardon ?
(Curtis): You can tell him the truth. Otherwise it's me who takes care of it.
(Opium): always try...
(William): What truth Curt ?
(Curtis): Opium saved your life Louis. At that point I was completely out of control, I was going to do a lot worse if he hadn't reacted.
(Louis): it was only to stay alive...
(Heath): I told you...
