Alexa Madron's words really got to me.
Even if I managed to find the Mystic Realm, I had no clue how to get Mabel Sean out of there.
What's worse, I'd already screwed up too many times.
Going up against the powerhouse that was the Capital City Martial Arts Association? Even giving it everything I had, saving Mabel on my own seemed like a pipe dream.
Unless the Capital City Martial Arts Association just vanished from existence.
But that'd take forever, and there was zero chance of that happening before I hit Martial Saint level.
"Mr. Raymond, what's your take?" Alexa Madron pressed.
I looked up and said seriously, "What's the catch? What do you want from me?"
Alexa Madron sipped his water and smiled slightly. "Our goal's pretty straightforward. We want to be friends with Mr. Raymond because we see huge potential in you."
That answer left me stumped.
Alexa Madron sounded genuine enough, but something felt off - like there was some scheme lurking underneath.
