Phoebe Billy dragged me aside and spoke with icy coldness, "Mason Raymond, I have no idea who that guy is, but he can't be trusted!"
"Should the Capital City Martial Arts Association discover our dealings, you understand the repercussions far better than I!"
I gave Phoebe's shoulder a reassuring pat, offered a slight smile, and replied, "When I say everything's under control, it is, so stop fretting."
Though Phoebe remained reluctant, he had little choice but to proceed with our arrangement.
"Thank goodness I already evacuated my people," Phoebe mused internally.
Phoebe then fixed Leigh Simpson with a cold stare and declared, "Once we're inside the Mystic Realm, you follow my commands."
Leigh responded with a blank expression, "Got it."
Having spoken those words, Phoebe guided Leigh Simpson and me toward the Capital City Martial Arts Association.
When night fell, the Capital City Martial Arts Association lay in complete silence.
