Chapter 109 - Good Or Bad News (1/2)

After the bracelet has notified him that he will lead them to where Diana is since she is the only one apart from Austin that has been closed to Jason, making it easier to track. Jason quickly begin to follow the way that was been pointed out by the bracelet but stopped suddenly.

”What are you doing just standing there, do you want to be left behind” asked Jason to Sam who still doesn't believe that he has the ability to track someone.

”I still don't believe that we will be able to find them if we continue to follow your lead” replied Sam who has his hand crossed in front of his chest.

”If someone as strong-headed as Austin can follow me, I don't know what choice a waste like you should be doing. You can stay there if you want but there is no way I will be rushing back to this place if you were to shout for help” said Jason before turning his attention back to the path that the bracelet has pointed out for him.

Not daring to stay behind when knowing full well how dangerous the ruin has turned out to be, Sam also follows from behind as he whispers into Austin's ears.

”Hey, do you think it is really a good idea to trust him with the direction”.

”Why not, I have been around him for a long time and one thing that I know that he is good at is smelling things out. He can tell if a beast is hiding in our midst, so I have every reason to trust him” replied Austin with a smile on his face.

Sam was amazed by what Austin said and just keep looking at Jason who seen to be in deep thought as he lead the way which makes him wonder what he could be thinking about until he suddenly stop walking and place his hand on the halberd like someone ready for a battle and seeing he like this, the two couldn't help but tense up as they brought out their weapon as they also prepare themselves.

”Why are we stopping now” asked Austin with a frown as he moved forward to take a look only to see that there was nothing before them.

”Are you still confused as to why he suddenly stopped walking, well just in case you want to know, he has no clue where he is taking us to” replied Sam as he sees an opportunity to strike at Jason for calling him useless.

”I wish I can be as useless as you but it is quite unfortunate that I cant” commented Jason as he didn't spare to glance at Sam.

”Come on guys this isn't the time to be fighting and Jason with is it that is ahead of us that is making you stop” said Austin as he has a bad feeling about the whole thing.

”Well I have two news for you, and they are good and bad news so tell me which one do you want to hear first” asked Jason with a bright smile on his face as he turned to the two while raising two fingers.

”What is wrong with you, how do you find the time to be playing games at a time like this” complain Sam.

”Let's hear the bad news first before the good one” replied Austin with a frown.

”Nice choice, I thought you are also going to waste our time like this useless thing here since we are already running out of time. But since you have already made your choice, here is your answer. There is a possessed that is heading our way and he should be here within four minutes and here comes the good news, if we can get past the possessed and get to the other side, Diana wouldn't be far from us” said Jason.

After Jason has given them the news, Sam's legs suddenly got weak as he fell on the ground on both knees before saying with gritted teeth.

”There is no way I am going to believe that there is a possessed ahead of us”.

”You can believe what you want to but I will advance you to get ready to fight because I won't risk my neck to protect you” replied Jason.

”I wonder how the others easily fall victim to the possessed since they are not far from being in the same realm as us” commented Austin with a sigh.

”Maybe they were tempted by the possessed” replied Jason.

”So you are saying I would easily fall for his mind game if I were to come across him” asked Austin.

”Dude you almost got killed just because you thought an item was inside that room, so what makes you think you will be able to survive his mind game” laughed Jason.

”Haha, I know right but you know I would have put a little effort just to break free from his enchantment unlike those fools who just loosen up and let their body be controlled” said Austin.

”Look at you two, ain't you afraid that you might die in this exchange against the possessed” asked Sam seeing how relaxed they were.

Jason and Austin both turn to give Sam a look before returning their sight back to the direction that Jason has pointed out to be where the possessed would be coming from.

”I don't think it would be that easy to break free from his enchantment or maybe once you are been possessed, you are already considered died” said Jason as he replied to Austin's words.
