Chapter 1277

Curious, Neera asked, “So, people still come to your fighting arts center, huh?”

Upon hearing these words, Finnley immediately felt offended. He widened his eyes and glared at her fiercely. “Hey, are you doubting me? Do you realize how many people in Phison want to learn from my fighting arts center, hoping for my guidance? If I were to accept them all, the fighting arts center wouldn’t have enough room, even if they came in shifts twenty hours a day!”

Neera hummed as she gently rubbed her nose and murmured, “I figured not many people would come here, especially since the fighting arts center seems a bit worn down.”

The triplets and Jean, who were listening on the sides, almost burst out laughing as they struggled to hold it in.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Finnley huffed and quickly changed the subject. “Just tell me why you’re here! Quick!”

“Oh.” Neera decided to get straight to the point. “Here’s the thing, I have a favor to ask. This mission is fraught with danger, and I’m worried about any unforeseen incidents befalling the Cox family. So, I would like to ask you to join us to ensure their safety.”

“Ah, so this is why you came over!” It all clicked for Finnley. He straightened up, his eyes/narrowing into slits. “I knew it. You’d never think of me when it comes to good things, but when you need my help, you’ll always come to me. You’re doing this for the head of the Cox family, aren’t you?”

While speaking, he cast a glance at Jean.
