Chapter XII
Two weeks went by without anything of importance happening. After the heated exchange of arguments between me and Ashen, and his time alone, we finally came to an agreement. We would be more proactive, but if at any time he thought we were in genuine danger, we would have to obey him and flee as soon as possible. Running away was not in my personality. I was taught to fight until the end, that's how I grew up and it wouldn't be any different now. However, now that I knew the reasons behind the request, I accepted it. If something like that happened, I would have to choose what to do wisely. Every situation is a situation, as one of my academy teachers said. A grumpy man, with a goatee on his double chin, already in his 50's, but with an outstanding sword skill.
We spent the time between researching the Hunters' board members and even a couple of A rankers and destroying monsters. We reached rank C in an instant. Elisa helped us a few times to defeat level C monsters and two B monsters. She confessed to me that she was fond of being around me and that she had begun to get attached to the team, although when I invited her to join us, she refused.
"It's still early." She told me, before we leaned over her couch, as had become regular on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Kendra and Maggie had no problem with that. They learned to like her style; ruthless but, at the same time, more preponderant when she gave them suggestions on how to improve.
At the end of the seventeenth day, Kendra's mobile phone rang during dinner. She ran a napkin over her lips before taking the mobile out of her pocket.
"It's Lipa! I haven't spoken with her since that day."
"Pick up. It could be important." Ashen told her and we all put down our cutlery.
We heard her exchanging a few "yes" and "are you sure?" but we remained uncultivated about the subject being discussed. The expressions on her face ranged from relieved to serious, with half-closed eyes and twisted lips, until she finished with a smile on her face, just before releasing a "Be careful. Don't get caught.". We all had our eyes on her, following her movements, from putting her mobile phone in her pocket to sitting down.
"Good news?" Maggie asked, stirring up the fork on her plate.
"Yes?" Kendra said, trying to hide her enthusiasm, but unable to conceal the smile rising up in the corner of her lips, "My sister told me the council will meet on Friday, but she is aware that most of the members won't want to get into trouble with the Reapers. But not everything is bad news. She heard rumors that there would be a party this Friday, at a mansion in Fortress, the richest small town on the continent, where they would demonstrate a new weapon to powerful men. She doesn't know which mansion, what or to whom."
"Well, that's enough.
