First Dungeon The - Part 3

Sinossi

“You can’t do that,” one of the elders following me argued, but he didn’t try to physically stop me. 
“Pretty sure I can,” I said, not looking back. 
“No. She’s a fourth rank mana beast, and at present, she’s the only fourth rank beast or fourth-ring mage. She could cause havoc!” 
I turned and stared the elder down. “I’ve been in this role for, what, thirty minutes? And you’re already questioning my choices?” 
I arched a brow, letting the silence linger while he thought about how strongly he wanted to oppose me. I didn’t expect them to immediately accept my leadership wholeheartedly, but I damn well wasn’t going to let them walk all over me. 
He seemed to come to a decision, stepping back and dipping his head in acknowledgment. 
Nodding, I continued onward. I knew his intentions were probably to help and guide me, but I wasn’t about to be persuaded away from my current task. I was going to release Mei. 
And thanks to my newly won station as the first ranked mage in the Ferrymen’s Core Court, I had access to Mei. I was now the core of the sect and I could, in fact, release Mei. 
I smiled, enjoying finally having a position with some power. 
“At least let us bring a dozen elders to help, in case of an issue.” 
“No need. Mei will be fine,” I said. 
I rounded the last corner and saw Mei already waiting by the door of her cell. Her fox ears swiveled forward and fixated on me. No doubt she had heard our conversation, although her casual stance didn’t give it away.
