Daley was in so much pain that he couldn't utter a word in response.
All he could do was wrap his head with his arms and roll around on the ground.
Therefore, Megahead turned toward Zeke and asked, “Newcomer, care to explain?”
“What's there to explain?” Zeke asked.
“Well, how did Phagos die next to you? How did Daley get hurt?”
“They wanted to kill me with rocks, but they tripped. Coincidentally, both their heads smashed into the rocks they
were carrying. This is all their own doing. It has nothing to do with anyone else,” Zeke answered.
Is that so? Megahead didn't believe Zeke.
However, he looked around and couldn't find anything else suggesting otherwise. Is the newcomer telling the truth?
F*ck! Phagos and Daley are such good-for-nothings! They couldn't even carry out such a simple task.
Megahead walked over to Daley and stepped on him, stopping him from rolling around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Tell me what happened!” Megahead ordered.
“We... I...” Daley mumbled.
Megahead bellowed, “What? Talk properly! Otherwise, I'm going to kill you!”
Megahead wanted to know if Zeke was the one who did that to them. If the newcomer is really the one behind this,
he's scary, and he's a threat to my safety. If that's the case, I must kill him no matter what.
“I'll tell the truth! I'll tell the truth! Phagos and I felt cold, so we thought we could gather a few rocks and make a
fire. However, we slipped and fell to the ground. Phagos knocked his head on the rock and passed out on the spot,”
Daley uttered.
“Is that true? Could there be such a coincidence?” Megahead asked puzzledly.
Daley nodded. “It's true! It was a freak accident.”
Upon hearing that, Megahead felt relieved. It was really just an accident, and the newcomer had nothing to do with
it. As I expected, he's not that strong.
Zeke didn't want to kill Phagos and Daley because he didn't want Megahead to view him as an enemy.
“All right, then. Go back to sleep, everyone. I'll kill the next person who disturbs my sleep!” Megahead fumed.
The other members went back to sleep as though nothing had happened.
Daley, on the other hand, applied some herbs to his wound to stop the bleeding before going to sleep.
Meanwhile, no one gave a hoot about Phagos' corpse.
By the break of dawn, all the members woke up from their sleep.
Although a few incidents had happened the night before, it seemed as though everyone still had a good night's
sleep.
Just as Megahead was about to give orders to everyone, Yannick and Yoshua's voices rang out from the dark cell.
“Mr. Hawk! Help us, Mr. Hawk.”
With a smirk on his face, Hawkeye arrived in front of the dark cell and asked, “What is it?”
Yannick and Yoshua pleaded, “Mr. Hawk, we've come to our senses. We'll do whatever you say from now on. You
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwere right. You've helped us, and we're supposed to be grateful to you. If it hadn't been for you, our parents
would've died long ago. Likewise, we won't be where we are today if not for your help. We'll listen to you from now
on.”
Hawkeye sneered, “Hmph! At least you guys are sensible. Why couldn't you guys just be like this in the beginning?
Why did you guys want to suffer?”
With that, Hawkeye ordered the other members, “Hey! Get Yannick and Yoshua out of there.”
The other members swiftly dragged Yannick and Yoshua out of the dark cell.
Having spent the night in the dark cell, the two of them looked so disheveled that they looked as though they had
aged a few decades.
Although their gazes were still filled with hostility when they looked at Hawkeye, they tried their best to conceal it
and smile instead. “Mr. Hawk, please tell us what you want us to do. We'll surely listen to you.”
“Why would you listen to me? Obey Megahead's words! Megahead is your Decanus,” Hawkeye instructed.
“Okay. Okay.” Yannick and Yoshua turned toward Megahead.
