Phantom chuckled, amused. “Woman, what do you take me for? Why must I do exactly what you say?”

My ability to foresee the future is a mysterious concept. It’s all based on my past life’s memories and won’t be accurate. I can’t give him any information he wants. Looks like getting Phantom’s help is no longer an option.
