After the Felistin Family decided to attack Fran to resolve the matter, the next step was to settle the details.
At the Felistin Family estate, the family's respected elders, including Ruge, gathered to discuss the plan.
Ivan, the family head, opened the discussion.
"Can any of you send a Third Order Professional?"
He looked at the mages present, because only the family's mages could carry out this attack.
Other professionals in the Floating City would not accept a mission to attack a Formal Mage. What mages did was their own business, but using one's own forces to interfere in mage affairs crossed a line.
This was the central issue of the discussion, because the strength "Philly" had displayed in the Duel Arena was still that of a Second Order Mage.
At the same time, however, "Philly" was far too powerful for a Second Order Mage. She had practically swept through nearly half the competitors in the Champion Mage Challenge's Main Tournament.
Not a single Second Order Mage dared claim they could take down such a powerful professional. Even leading a Six-Member Second Order Team, they would have no confidence.
This was Number Three Floating City. Just as Fran had to seize an opportunity to kill or injure Third Order Professionals in Bohan, they would have to seize one of the few available openings to attack a mage here.
