Nicholai, I apologise for the delay in responding. Your offer definitely has the potential to turn quite a profit. However, the price I had to pay was high and had to be considered carefully.

I have not changed my mind about relinquishing them. I understand that these ten soldiers I’ve fought alongside with are nothing more than a number, a price tag, to Umbrella.

I’m sure you are finding this all quite amusing, Silver Fox, but this is a sad day for me. I feared the day I would have to make this decision. After all, these men were all raised by me and are a part of me. I can’t help but feel reservations about turning these thinking, feeling human beings into biological weapons and cursing them to an eternity of living death. However, I have made my decision and will not waver.
