"Ares wants to see me?"
Mike froze for a moment, a sense of unease creeping over him.
This couldn't be good.
He cautiously asked, "So… should we head out now?"
Cedric, still sipping his tea, replied indifferently,
"Ares wants to see you. What does that have to do with me?"
Mike: ???
You could've said that earlier!
Mike nearly cursed out loud.
This guy is ridiculous!
Suppressing his frustration, Mike muttered, "Fine, I'll head to the First Abyss then."
He took a few steps but hesitated, turning back with a sheepish grin.
"The abyss is dangerous. How about you escort me there?"
Cedric nodded, agreeing with a straight face,
"Indeed, you are quite dangerous… to the abyss."
Mike: …
With no other choice, and Ares waiting, Mike grabbed Michael and left.
As for what Cedric planned to do in the Forest of Truth, Mike couldn't guess, nor did he care to.
