Wilbur rested in his room for a bit, deciding he should get in touch with Orin a little.
In addition to looking for the Tiger War Amulet, Wilbur also wanted to save all the Dasha locals and get them out of there.
That was definitely a big deal, and there might be trouble that came out of it if he did not communicate with Orin about it.
After all, Wilbur was in a different country. This might spark an international conflict.
After giving it some thought, Wilbur got to his feet and spread out his spirit energy.
The footage on all the cameras in his room froze at once.
Wilbur got to his feet, making a call to Orin.
A while later, the call connected, and Wilbur expressed his thoughts to Orin from start to finish.
However, Orin's hesitant voice came ringing down the line. "I was waiting for a call from you, Wilbur. Mister Albert Joeman's taken over your case now, and you've been given the alias 'Razor Sharp'. I think it's best you spoke to him."
Wilbur raised an eyebrow.
The Department of Paranormal Research and Defense had gotten involved. But why?
Confused, Wilbur dialed Albert's number.
"What's up, Commander-In-Chief?" Wilbur grinned as the call connected.
He felt it was still best to remain respectful towards this powerful man.
Albert's frail voice rang through the line. "I formed a plan after finding out you were in Manand, Wilbur. I spoke to the authorities where you are, and we're thinking of making a move on the rampant scams and human trafficking cases over there. You should lay low for now. I'll let you know the plan of action once we've confirmed everything with the Manand authorities."
"Of course, that's alright. One thing though. That girl that came with me, Sophie Horlay? She doesn't seem to like me very much. I'm worried she might screw up the plan," Wilbur frowned.
He did not have much of a problem with the department's arrangements.
Saving the people of Dasha was definitely a priority, and Wilbur was more than happy to comply.
Albert fell silent for a second, before saying, "I'll tell Orin to get Sophie back here, then. Just focus on laying low while gaining as much power and trust as you can."
