Is Rhode trustworthy?
Perhaps.
At the very least, Rhode's identity lends credibility to his words, and he seemed to have detected Anna's presence.
Keg Flay and Marvelin offered no defense. This was the mainstream view in the Exorcist Realm, deeply rooted within exorcist families.
They all knew something about Michael Tesla's story, and while his choice to merge with the strange made them uncomfortable, retreating to the Ailen Peninsula was the best option for everyone.
The bonfire was burning vigorously, but the gathering was nearing its end.
Before leaving, Rhode stood up and picked up the oil lamp, "There are some things Uncle Michael asked me to tell you."
Had Tesla guessed they would attend the Exorcists' Council?
Lu Li thought this over and had Anna push his wheelchair to follow Rhode.
"Michael only wants Mr. Luli to hear these words," Rhode said to Anna.
Curious glances from Flay and Marvelin withdrew as they collected their belongings.
