Pretender? [ he'll laugh a bit of a laugh at that. ] I think that's a much too flattering nickname to give the witch in question.

[ you would think that being corrected, slightly, about how little that blade would kill for would upset sabo but it doesn't when he continues speaking. sabo can read between the lines easily and it's not like they're not in the same mindset. it's just...unfortunately: ]

...though, even if people would never confess this publicly, there are bound to be a few who are willing to use that wish as justification. Or at least see if they can really have their wish granted.

[ but unless the wish is for something that they can tangible see and hold in their hands, who knows just how possible it is for him to really grant the wishes that people might think of? if people wish for something to happen back home, they just have to go on what his word. ]

And as much as I hate to believe him in his belief that we could not think of a loophole out of the limitations of the wish that he'd grant us, I don't have enough experience with this situation to make a better judgement on it.

[ sabo has experienced many things but this? he doesn't have anything to compare it to... at least, not with enough information. ]
