She was thinking if this was a good idea or not.
"So what [Echidna] just fixed your skill?" Asked Elizabeth to the girl in front of her.
The restaurant was abandoned after the last client left, no new ones came in, even though she could see that it was still in the afternoon. Even so, no one had asked them to leave, so she was just drinking from her glass of water. The owner seemed to know this girl.
"I mean...She just helped me to control it more precisely...?" Said in a questioning tone Zoe. "You can't really [Fix] these without diving into the skill...But [Echidna] doesn't encourage that...And if you mess it up you can worsen your [Bad Trigger] so not many do that."
So that [Villain] either had a [Skill] that allowed her some control over other's skills...Or she had a way to suppress skills...That wasn't such a rare [Skill]. The owner of the restaurant seemed to have a variation of such power since she still couldn't control the shadows here...
Besides those under their table, but even those couldn't really extend very far from her.
"And she does this...Service...From the goodness of her heart?" Said Elizabeth in a mocking tone.
No one would believe a [Villain] would do that after all...Actually...She didn't really have proof of anything this girl was saying, did she?
"That's a good one red-eyes." Answered Zoe while laughing in her seat. "Nah, [Echidna] is a good to god (Or Devil) [Villain]. If you want her to help you have to either promise to not mess with her." She said while bringing a blue notebook with the words [Peace] on it.
The girl opened and it was full of names and signatures, with some small descriptions and photos of people, most of them had some grade of red in their eyes.
"That would mean you sign one of these notebooks and she will make sure that so long you are under her area of influence your skill will not go out of control. And if it does, she will make sure to help you deal with the...[Problems] from it. You will, however [Pledge] to not get in her or her associates' way." Finished saying Zoe while showing her the notebook. At the end of it was an open spot and a pen ready for her to write with.
"Or..."She said while closing the notebook and offering her a red bracelet with the motif of Cerberus, the three-headed dog guardian of the netherworld. "You work for [The Hydra's Fang]. And we will make sure you get your [Skill] under control. Teach you ways to mitigate the [Taint] and help you. Of course, the more committed you are, the better the treatment..."
That was a tempting offering, if nothing else she would need help to rein in her [Skill's Temper]. And besides...Her father had suggested her as an option to work with...
"...Fine." Said the girl while grabbing the red bracelet. "Do I use two of these then?"
"Hah! Of course not. That is for when you are working with us." Answered Zoe while showing her a silver one like the one Rossie had. "Our [Tinker] doesn't like those made by others. So don't carry yours while working with us. Also, leave any tech not provided by [The Hydra's Fang] while under work..." Said Zoe while grabbing another note from her backpack.
She gave Elizabeth the note "These are the instructions for the next recruitment notice. After the [Heroes] hit us last time [Echidna] ordered a new recruitment notice so you are in luck." Added the violet-haired girl.
Elizabeth grimaced at the thought that her Father was the one orchestrating that.
For her part, Zoe didn't seem to care that much "See you there Red-Eyes..." And said so while standing, only to hit her forehead with one of his hands "Oh right...What was your name again?" And ask her for her name.
