"What are you talking about all of a sudden, Rafflesia Anne von Opponia?!" Dad asks me with a look of pure horror on his face. "And you boys, are you seriously going to do this? Are you really going to let your sister sign the Magic Contract, Wolfsbane? And you, Nerium, are you really going to make her a deal?" Brother Wolf and Brother Neri both shake their heads adamantly. "Of course not, Father! What are you even talking about?! I will never let Raffy touch or even let her look at the Magic Contract! I'm not stupid because a breach of contract means her life will be in danger!" Brother Wolf denies vehemently. "Yeah! And there's no way I'll let Raffy make a deal with me! Over my dead body! Her health is already so fragile, my deals are just a sure-fire way to kill her!" Brother Nerium
