Chapter 124: A New Threat
Phoenix settled back into the plush cushions of the couch, her intense gaze unwavering from Gabi.
"That is all," Gabi concluded, her voice echoing in the sudden silence, signaling the end of her detailed narrative.
"Hmm..." Phoenix hummed, a solitary eyebrow arching in contemplation.
Miguel, eager for her insight, broke the quiet. "Second Guardian! What are your thoughts?"
Phoenix shifted her gaze, sweeping it from Miguel, to Alex, then to Danzig, and finally back to Gabi.
"Why would the Golden Organization be after a dead beast’s weapon?" she posed, her tone edged with a subtle challenge.
The four exchanged bewildered glances, each shaking their head in a collective display of their ignorance.
"There are two primary reasons behind this," Phoenix began, her voice measured and deliberate. "First: These individuals either wish to forge a formidable new weapon from the scythe, or perhaps, simply to wield it themselves." She turned her attention back to Gabi. "You mentioned the man possessed the ability to wield the weapon."
"Yes," Gabi confirmed with a firm nod.
"Alright... This could very well be their primary motive."
"What about the second reason?" Alex pressed, his curiosity piqued.
