After a long silence, the green haired elder finally said with a sigh, "This is a matter that we can't discuss with an outsider."
I said with a sly smile, "I don't think that I can be considered an outsider, can I?"
The elders looked at me with strange looks before turning to Haley and Cecilia. The green haired elder said, "What about your companions then?"
I said with the same smile, "They can leave the room temporarily if that is what you want."
The elders knitted their brows to look at me, as if they were trying to figure out if I was being serious or not. Seeing this, I immediately put away the smile and looked back at them with a serious look.
There was a silent stare off for a minute before the elders gave another sigh.
Finally, the green haired elder said, "You really are something else."
I couldn't help revealing a smile when I heard this.
