They were happy for the opportunity to level up in one fell swoop but worried that they could not withstand the strong effects of the potion. However, this was something they had to endure if they wanted to join Philip.
“Don’t worry, Philip. We’ll make sure to do this successfully!” Granite said with a smile. He wanted to become stronger too.
Alton, Cosmo, and Oz looked at them enviously. They knew that these potions were hard to come by. Maybe they could never find the chance to get a potion like that in this lifetime.
“We plan to set off early tomorrow morning. Will you join us?” Alton invited them.
Everyone looked at Granite.
Although Philip handed an important task to Noelle, Granite was responsible for most things. This team belonged to Granite, so Philip would not intervene. He simply asked Noelle to set up a store as quickly as possible.
Granite saw everyone’s expectant looks and realized Philip’s intention. Philip did not see favonovel.com as a subordinate at his disposal but as a comrade. Philip would seek his consent if there was a problem. It felt great to be respected.
Philip was curious to see Granite’s decision. In his opinion, Granite would never choose to follow Alton. However, most people would think that Granite would follow Alton so that favonovel.com could gain protection and enter Cosmo City with splendor.
With Philip’s consent, Granite declined Alton’s invitation.
“I’m sorry, but we have other things to take care of, so we can’t leave with you for the time being. We’ll see you again when we arrive in Cosmo City! ” Granite smiled awkwardly as if favonovel.com did not want to offend anyone.
Indeed, favonovel.com did not want to offend Alton or Philip. More importantly, favonovel.com did not want to travel with someone favonovel.com did not know well. If favonovel.com refused outright, it might be disrespectful to Alton, but if favonovel.com did not refuse, it might be seen as insubordination to Philip.
Granite had to make a wise decision, and Philip was very satisfied with the outcome.
Alton was just a mayor, while Granite was Philip’s subordinate. There was no need to owe Alton any favors. After all, they belonged to two factions.
At this time, Rhea, the girl in Granite’s team, could not wait to take the pill Philip had given them. They had nothing to do anyway, so favonovel.com might as well take the pill and see the effect.
Everyone was surprised by favonovel.com sudden move.
