Mag-log inAlen immediately turned to James, as well as Riley who was staring at him with an incomprehensible look.
At first James was a bit confused by the stares of his two friends. However, he suddenly realized something, "Hey, my father was a traitor. I know about it, but ... he didn't betray this kingdom."
He took off his protective helmet and quickly rubbed his nose. That little activity was a sign that he was becoming nervous and agitated.
Realizing that, Riley immediately put his arm around James and said, "We know. Your father is not a traitor like we think he is. Calm down!"
Alen also responded, "Riley is right. You ... don't have to feel weird anymore. I'm sorry, I may have misunderstood you earlier. However, I really didn't mean to make you think of your father."
The situation became awkward. The unusual conversation made them misbehave themselves.
However, it didn't last long. When Ben and Shin moved to their places, the atmosphere became
"I'm not saying you're not allowed. But-""That's enough, that's all we need to know. So, we're not breaking any rules," Kharel impatiently interrupted the female staff member who had looked down on him.Richard immediately nodded at Kharel.The two young men hurried back into the first phase area, leaving the female staff staring at them in disbelief. Jeremy, his friend who had been in the area, approached the woman and commented in a low tone, "It seems like you've started to change your mind."Carlyta clicked her tongue when she heard her friend teasing her, "You're right, Jeremy. The Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Ans De Lou and the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of De Kruk ... are indeed very admirable. But ... aren't they very stupid?""Stupid? Being a hero to their friends, you say that's ... stupid, Carlyta?" Jeremy replied, raising his left eyebrow. He was very confused at how Carlyta thought.Carlyta shrugged as she stared blankly at the two young men who had disappeared in t
The staff member smiled faintly and replied, "Why don't you try to find out for yourself, Prince Richard?"Richard didn't answer and immediately got up and began arranging all the boxes they had received. Calvin helped him organize them while Keen began checking the keys they had received from the staff member.Calvin frowned and said, "There's a number here. Are there numbers on the boxes too?"Kharel, who was still sitting next to Jonas while watching him, turned to Calvin, "I don't see any numbers on the boxes."Keen hurriedly checked the boxes again and then squealed, "Hey, there are numbers."He immediately showed them to Richard and Calvin. Apparently, the numbers were written on the back of the boxes and were very small, but they were written in white so they were clearly legible."The writing is so small, who would know?" Calvin said.Keen nodded, "We'll match the box numbers and the keys.""No, that ... will take more time. It's better to find the key that fits the box and o
Elliot simply replied, "Can't I relax a little? You know ... I just fought the Crown Prince of Sealand and his friend?"Jonas clicked his tongue, "Fought? Can you really call that fighting? You barely used any strength, but they were already helpless."Elliot didn't reply, but Richard immediately asked curiously, "Did you meet him?""Yes, he was with Leo Wein," Elliot replied without stopping walking. Kay quickly added, "They both betrayed their friends."Richard didn't respond, as if he knew that something like that could happen. Meanwhile, Jonas began to weaken, and Kay, who was supporting him, could feel it too.Suddenly, Richard De Kruk stopped walking when he saw Jonas' condition worsening. The young man was about to faint from blood loss. "We can't go back there, Elliot. If he's forced to walk any longer, he'll really lose his life," Richard said without lowering his voice.Jonas, who heard this, could only smile weakly.Meanwhile, Kay bit his lip, realizing that Richard's wo
Instead of responding to what the two young men said, Elliot completely ignored their taunts.The 17-year-old instead began throwing his small balls in a way that no one had ever thought of before. He was actually using the small balls made of leaves as weapons.In fact, the four small balls he used hit two parts of Jimmy and Leo's bodies."Damn!" Jimmy cursed. He was hit on the lip, causing it to bleed.In addition to his lip, his finger was also hit by the small ball, causing him to feel as if one of his fingers was broken.Meanwhile, Leo's eyes widened when he felt his chin break. In addition, he also felt pain in his right knee."You ...." Leo reflexively held his chin and knee at the same time.The young man had even fallen down next to Jimmy, who was cleaning his bleeding lip. Meanwhile, behind Elliot, Jonas and Kay couldn't blink because they were too mesmerized by Elliot Gardner's amazing abilities.Jimmy stared in shock when he realized Elliot was walking toward them. The
Elliot didn't answer right away, but instead looked carefully around them before saying, "This is indeed an abandoned city."Jonas immediately responded with a frown, "Wait a minute. I'm still a little confused.""What's confusing you?" Kay replied with a question of his own. Jonas looked at his leg, which Elliot had bandaged, and said, "The people who attacked us earlier. How did they get knives?"It was clear that the slash wound on his leg, which had almost severed it, came from a knife.He couldn't be wrong. The knife wasn't a large one, but a small one that the attacker used so quickly that he didn't even realize his leg had been so badly injured."Aren't all participants prohibited from carrying weapons? And our boxes are all still sealed, with the keys in the hands of the event staff. So where did they get the weapons?” Jonas said, holding his thigh. Elliot didn’t need time to think and immediately replied, “The ones who attacked us weren’t the participants, but … the event st
Kharel paused for a moment, seemingly weighing Richard's words.But Richard didn't let the young man think too long because time was pressing.So instead of giving Kharel much time to think, Richard said quickly, "Don't waste too much time thinking!""They ... might be waiting for help," Richard added.Kharel reluctantly nodded and replied, "All right. Then I leave their safety to you."Richard responded with a small nod. "Don't worry! You ... take care of the ones here."Kharel nodded once more and then watched Richard leave the area.As soon as Richard De Kruk left, Calvin Reid immediately stood up and walked over to Kharel, "Where did he go?""To find our other friends," Kharel replied without turning to look at Calvin.Niall, who was also listening to the conversation, responded, "Why didn't he take one of us with him?"Kharel smiled, "He can do it alone."This explained that Richard De Kruk had such impressive fighting skills that Kharel trusted the young man's abilities.First,
