"Wait a minute," Nash suddenly interrupted Mosley. "What do you mean by 'might not be smooth'? Is something happening over there? And if you knew about it, why did you still want me to go? What are you up to?"
Mosley turned his head away, pretending to be clueless. His eyes wandered as he forced an awkward smile. "Haha, what are you talking about, Master Nash? I don't understand."
Nash grabbed Mosley by the ear. "Hey, hey, stop, Master Nash! Please, it hurts! Alright, alright. I'll talk, I'll talk."
Hearing that, Nash let go and said sternly, "Tell me everything you know about the situation in the Land of Nion and why you were expelled by Francis."
Mosley frowned, leaning back in his seat and crossing his legs as he seemed to reminisce. In a relaxed but somewhat troubled tone, he said, "So, where should I begin?"
Realizing Mosley was reluctant to discuss his past, Nash decided to start with something more immediate. "First, tell me about the current situation in the Land of Nion."
"The Land of Nion... Well, that involves an organization called Twilight.
"Twilight currently manages all the warriors, cultivators, and Espers in the Land of Nion. Last year, the highest leader of that organization suddenly disappeared. Actually, it's more accurate to say he was confirmed dead.
"The strangest part is that before he disappeared, he left a letter naming a newcomer who had joined only a year ago as his successor. This caused quite a stir, but they verified the letter and confirmed it was indeed written by the previous leader. It even contained traces of his true energy."
"Excuse me, sir." A beautiful flight attendant approached them at this moment. "Here's your drink."
