380 Types of paper cranes (1/2)

So, he asked hoping that Edmond would not skip his question and answer him directly.

”You have seen me using white-coloured paper cranes, right?” Edmond looked at Udo for a second and started talking about the paper cranes.

Even though he tone seemed to be like asking, he didn't wait for Udo's reply and continued, ” Those white coloured paper cranes are given to me by the mercenary guild's guild master.”

Saying until here, Edmond placed his hand on the left elbow which was previously injured in the fight with the huge chimera-like monster.

”Looks like the wounds are acting up. You better sleep now and take some rest. You can explain about it later,” When Udo saw the pained expression on Edmond's faces, he shook his head and decided to stop bothering Edmond with his questions.

While saying that he slowly supported Edmond in a resting position before moving away from Edmond.

”You rest here, I will go and talk with Ajax for a while,” After that, Udo lightly said to Edmond from the distance.

Last time, when Udo met Ajax in this place, he wanted to ask many questions but he was not able to ask them as they were demon servants and next Ajax entered into the Dimensional crevice.

So, he never got a chance to ask his doubt about Ajax's survival in the cursed wilderness even when Paulin was injured to an extent where he barely had any life left in him.

”Wait...let me talk about it,” Just as Udo decided to look for Ajax, he heard Edmond's voice who told him he would explain about red-coloured paper cranes.

'You never changed old friend,' When he heard Edmond's words, Udo shook his head and returned back to Edmond and sat beside him to hear about the Red-coloured paper crane.

From the time he got to know about Edmond, Udo knew that when Edmond decides to do something, he would not listen to anybody.

So, without any retaliation, Udo sat beside him to listen about Red-coloured paper cranes.

”There are three types of paper cranes that are given to the top three mercenary squad's captains namely White, Blue and Red coloured paper cranes,” Edmond thought back to the time, he stood equally with the other two squad captains and received ranking badges and other rewards from the guild master and continued explaining about everything that had happened on that day.

On that day, Edmond and the other two top captains received three types of coloured paper cranes in a box.

That box consisted, 5 sets of white coloured paper cranes, 3 types of blue ones and only a single red-coloured paper crane.

After hearing about the usage of paper cranes, all the captains had nodded their head and silently kept the boxes in their space ring.

”This is what had happened on that day...sigh,” Edmond heaved a sigh after explaining about what the guild master had said on the day where mercenary squads were ranked.

”Then that means someone from the other two top captains had already informed him about the demons' attacks on Zrochester province to him,'' Udo didn't feel any surprise as he had already guessed that the usage of the red-coloured crane must be very important.

The reason the guild master had only given those red coloured paper cranes to the top three captains were that they were the only mercenaries who were capable of venturing deeper into the Cursed wilderness or Cursed Abyss.

As for the other low-level mercenary squad captains, only white and blue coloured paper cranes were given.
