Chapter 299 - Crisis (1) (1/2)

The convoy's leader, Semial, created an emergency meeting with the team's leader. Auron was included since he was a team's vice leader.

”There are three deaths and two who are heavily injured. All of it came from the second team.” Semial stated.

Since the attack happened when the second team was on patrol duty, most of the injured came from the second team. Now, the second team had fewer people compared to the other teams.

”Hah... Unfortunately, the previous thief leaves the group, or else we can use some helping hand.” The third team's leader sighed.

The thief that the third team's leader mentioned was Sleight Hand. In the previous town, the thief had decided to leave the group. Of course, none of the convoy's members tried to stop him since it didn't give them any benefit. However, looking at the current situation, they had wished they stopped him before.

”Enough, It has happened already. We need to think forward!” Semial reprimand the third team's leader.

”We will give some of the other's team members to the second team. Now, let us discuss what we should do.”

”Should we stay until morning or depart immediately?”

”I believe we could stay here.” The third team's vice leader said, followed by several nodded from others.

”Yes, the attackers were weak. They could injure us because of the surprise attack. I believe if we are more cautious, they could not do something like this anymore.”

”I agree. Moreover, there are only 4 hours left before the morning comes.”

Most of them agreed to stay here until the morning comes. Meanwhile, there were only a few participants who kept silent and didn't say a word. They didn't agree to stay. However, they also didn't want to depart immediately. That was why they chose to keep silent.

”Everyone agrees?” Since everyone most likely agree to stay, Semial tried to conclude the discussion. He asked everyone agreement while looking at the meeting's participant.

One of the meeting participants piqued Semial's attention. It was Auron. So, Semial directly asked Auron, ”Do you agree that we choose to stay?”

Throughout the discussion, Auron just kept silent and didn't voice anything. However, when the others stated the reason they had to stay, Auron frowned but didn't say any word against it.

The reason was because he had heard about the other's Insanity Gang's opinion about him. His ability should be on par with the team's leader. He could be chosen as a team leader. However, the reality showed otherwise.

Moreover, the other team's leader's attitude towards him was rude. Even more, the second team's leader. He treated Auron, who was the vice leader like he didn't exist.

That was why Auron didn't really care about this group. If there were troubles come, he could always escape using his ability and looking for another way for his spy mission.

However, Semial saw Auron was frowning at the discussion before. But, seeing Auron didn't voice out his opinion, Semial asked Auron.

Although the other treated Auron not fair, but Semial treated him the best out of them all. So, when Semial asked him, Auron answered truthfully. But, whether they took Auron's word or not, it was their choice.
