Manson laughed and said, “We underestimated them, alright. No matter how their skills are, they’re quite smart.
Still, does it matter that they’re working together? They barely pose a threat! Those who have died were cannon
fodder to us anyway. They won’t affect the greater plan…”
“Those animals who are fighting back need to pay dearly, though. Those who’ve killed warriors from second-grade
worlds will suffer a fate worse than the other warriors. We’ll make sure to drag out the time and slowly torture
them!”
Uriel was always a worrywart. He felt like with what was happening, even they needed to be careful.
He walked forward and said to Manson, “You’re right, Manson, but I still feel like we should bolster our defenses.
Even though they’re just fools from third-grade worlds, it won’t be too easy to deal with them if too many of them
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgather.”
Manson looked at Uriel, smiling as he said, “You’re being too cautious. Even if a lot of them are gathered together,
it’s not like we’ll meet them. There are dozens of warriors from second- grade worlds still living right now, and
we’re just some of them.
“Unless we’re incredibly unlucky, there’s no way we’ll meet them. Also, these people will need to gather a lot of
numbers to turn the tides in their favor. They can’t afford to split up, so the chances of us meeting them are even
lower.”
Uriel could not say anything to that. He actually wanted to argue, but he was not as authoritative as Manson.
If Uriel continued, he would definitely be upset. However, Uriel still felt like Manson was taking things too easily.
Even though those warriors from third-grade worlds were not that strong, there was still strength in numbers.
If enough of them were gathered, they would still be a threat.
Hirving turned and patted Uriel on the shoulder. “When did you become so cowardly? Even if those people charge
in right now, do we not know how to run? Sure, it’s a little embarrassing, but it’s still better than dying. Then, we
can spread the news and gather a lot of people too. We won’t be afraid of them in that scenario. There’s honestly
nothing much to worry about.‘’
Uriel sighed helplessly, having nothing else to refute with. All they could do was wait at that moment.
Manson took out a piece of paper to note down those who were missing.
“Make sure to always remember your task, it’s the most important. Bring these people back so he’ll know what’s
happening.”
Uriel accepted the piece of paper. He wanted to look it over when they suddenly heard footsteps from the distance.
The six of them looked up at where the footsteps were from, and they saw five men slowly getting closer to them.
Out of the five, they recognized two of those men. The first was Agelt from the Lycan Continent, and the other was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBraum from the Chaos Continent. The two of them were two of the strongest warriors from the third-grade worlds
that had entered.
When the party of six saw who was there, they froze.
Manson turned around angrily. “You really jinxed it! Ugh! There’s no need to fret, though, we have six on our side
while they have five. Of those five, two of them are somewhat strong, while the others are nothing to worry about.”
Uriel’ s lips twitched as anger flared in his heart, but he did not say anything.
Manson was crossing the line. Uriel’s worries had clearly been right, but this guy was blaming him for j inxing it!
It did not matter. It was not the time to think about that.
Manson narrowed his eyes slightly before he took out a sword. The others pulled out their weapons as well.
Jack stood in the middle, trying not to stand out.
