Chapter 920: Ryan Covernheart (1/2)

The moment Captain Berk was unable to see Ajax in the cave, he used his senses to check on him.

However, he was unable to sense Ajax even with his senses.

'Where did he go?'

Captain Berk could not help but frown as he wondered about Ajax.

Even though Captain Berk knew that Ajax was inside the cave; however, he was not expecting Ajax to disappear the moment he entered the cave.

'Captain Berk, what shall we do now?'

One of the squad members also looked for Ajax; however, except for the darkness inside the cave, he was unable to see Ajax. So, he asked his squad captain what to do next.

”Looks like we need to use one of our own to reveal the traps.”

After saying those words, Captain Bek pushed the squad member who asked him about 'what to do next' into the cave.

”Captain Berk.”

The squad member was not expecting that his squad captain would push him. So, before he could notice, he was already inside the cave.

'Check for the traps.'

Without bothering the squad member's shouts, Captain Berk transmitted his voice to that squad member to check for the traps.

'...'

Seeing that, all the squad members of the Quickthunder mercenary squad were speechless at their captain and at the same time, they were a little anxious inside their hearts because they didn't know who would be the next one to enter the cave.

…..

Inside the cave,

'Ajax, here.'

After Ajax entered the tunnel on his left side, he travelled less than 100 meters before he heard the familiar voice.

'Captain Edmond.'

Ajax was excited as he hurriedly rushed towards Captain Edmond and Udo.

'Now, tell me how did you end up with the Quickthunder mercenary squad?'

The first thing Edmond asked Ajax was about how he mixed up with that mercenary squad.

'I was training in the middle section of the cursed wilderness when I heard that Quickthunder mercenary squad talk about you and uncle Udo. So, I disguised myself as some random mercenary and joined them; however, they used me to test the traps inside the cave.'

Soon, Ajax explained everything except for the part where he came from the five elemental world.

'Don't' worry. You are now safe.'

After hearing Ajax's words, Edmond nodded his head.

At the side, even Udo nodded his head at Ajax's words because he believed them.

Even though Udo used to doubt Ajax for a demonic cultivator, after receiving Ajax's valuable gift, Udo stopped doubting because according to the guild master and others, Ajax had a powerful master who teaches him through the dreams.

'Captain Edmond, what did you do that even the royal family wants your head?'

After that, Ajax asked about Edmond and Udo's situation.
