Robert was carefully analyzing Tony's words, having his cognitive entrails digest them and extracting whatever succulent bit of information they could so that he can portray a plan with benefits that would greatly outweigh whatever consequences they could carry.
" Aiding the opposite side instead would win us the Corsair favour, along with other rewards and benefits, especially a none-aggression pact " He thought
" But then... We will have the Outcasts arranging an assembly of violence and chaos right in front of our Freeport " he whispered to himself, not even caring if these words were audible to his colleague.
Not only that, but in his opinion, Corsairs were little more than barbarians, the violent, superficial and vulgar contrast of the Maltese. He couldn't trust them at all for illustrating diplomatic partners of a competing caliber, and Robert never fancied the idea of conducting business with brutes.
" Putain de la merde, could he stop puffing his tube of toxins in front of me? " his mind eroded, irritated by the suffocating fumes Tony oozed forth.
Aiding the Canarians however would bring them economical as well as diplomatic benefit from the other zoner factions. However, this will negate his plans of tricking the refugees into selling them to the Maltese in order to prove the Commonwealth's usefulness so that they won't end in slavery themselves.
" But the Outcasts would certainly appreciate our meddling against Corsair plans " he then thought, which was true.
However, ignoring Tony's ideas and going with the status quo would save him from this excruciating thinking, but it was also a proposition he couldn't really overlook.
" Tony, my dearest and most amiable colleague... " he said turning towards Tony while stopping from the walking
" ... You bring sound arguments, and as such, I would like you to give me a few days before I make a final decision " he eloquently spoke, accompanying his words with a smile.
" I am more than certain this answer is satisfying, non? "
