“This incident is quite unusual,” Madelyn said with a firm tone. “So, I was hoping to borrow some manpower from Oceanic Empire. I hope you can support me on this.”

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

“…” Madelyn was speechless.

Phantom’s smile deepened. “Also, you better get this straight: I’m not some savior, nor am I a people- pleaser. One more thing, you should know that this is Rodunst, and things are different here.

It’s astonishing that Madelyn came seeking my help for that man’s sake. Looks like she values this man’s life even more than her own.

However, Madelyn refrained from explaining much and cut straight to the chase. “That’s none of your business. Just tell me will you help or not?”

Madelyn frowned. I’ve told him so much, yet he’s still asking for more. I don’t have any information to offer him at all, Even if I do, I don’t want to reveal my cards just yet. 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.
