Chapter 90 - The Other Families (1/2)

After elder luke has stated his reason why he agreed with Austin's idea of taking another path, both Steven and Henry were not happy seeing the elder this way. Looking at the unwilling in their face, elder luke couldn't bother himself with them as he turn around to take the other path but before leaving he said.

”If you think I am wrong, you can go yourself beside it didn't matter if were to split along the way as long as we get to the weakrose cave there should be a problem”.

Seeing that elder Luke meant what he said, Steven and Henry could only grit their teeth as they follow the group.

”Let's see if you will be able to depend on elder luke once we are inside the ruin” said Steven with a frown.

”And here I thought he is fearless, who would have thought that he would be so scared once we are inside the beast territory” added Henry.

Jason could only turn to Austin with a wide smile on his face who could only let out a sigh before turning away.

”That is what I get for trying to save their asses” said Austin.

”Haha, that is what you get when someone doesn't like you. Even when you are trying to help them it will feel like you are trying to help yourself” commented Jason with a laugh.

”At least we were able to avoid getting ambushed by the horde of beasts” replied Austin.

The group travel for hours and during their travel they encounter some beast which elder Luke defeated with ease while sometimes, some of the members would dash out to fight any beast that will come their way before elder Luke could make a move making it look like they are in a training session. It became nighttime and they are still far from coming out of the beast territory.

”I think we should rest here and take the time to recover our energy before continuing our journey tomorrow” said elder Luke as he climb a tree before closing his eyes to meditate.

”We should have been out of this place by now if we had gone through that path” said Steven as he put his axe by the side before sitting down.

”Tell me about it, now we have to stay here for another day, and let's not forget about keeping watchful eyes while we rest” complained Henry.

”You can always go back to take that path if you are not satisfied with this” said Jason with a smile as he walked past them.

”This kid is getting on my nerves each passing day” said Steven with a frown as he watch Jason walk away.

”Be patient my friend once we get into the ruin, it will be just us against him. Let's see how he is going to deal with it when the time comes” whisper Henry to Steven whose frown turn to a smile.

”Hahaha, I can't wait to get my hands on him” said Steven with an evil grin on his face.

The night was not a peaceful one since they will have to wake up whenever they heard the sound of a beast even when they have elder Luke to protect, they still couldn't sleep. In the morning they did not even take a little time to adjust their state of mind before moving out.

Their team was finally able to come out of the beast territory after spending another night there but the problem now is that they are exhausted to the extent that even continuing the journey was a problem for the team and they have no choice but to take a rest.

”Who would have thought that it would be this difficult to get to the weakrose cave” said Jason as he took a sigh.

”Do you think it would be an easy trip to get there” asked Austin.

”Well it should have if it were to be just me with no one to bother me while I make my way through all those beasts” said Jason.

”It would have been an easy trip for you if you went on your own” replied Austin.

While the duo were chatting, the grand elder suddenly spoke up.

”Listen up everyone, we only have one hour to spend here since we are already running late on the meeting with the other family before the seal is completely opened”.

”Guess we won't be waiting more time here” said Jason with a smile.
