chapter 996: 1 in 10 chance
the man in front of them, the way he was dressed, the way he stood, and more, were all telltale signs that the man in front of them wasn't a regular pagna warrior, and it was perhaps knowing this fact that made their own bodies react.
if the man in front of them wasn't a regular pagna warrior, then what exactly was he? it was clear a normal individual wouldn't be able to survive such an island, and he was in the darkened yellow section of all places.
lince, also being the information gatherer of the demonic faction, knew the faces of those he needed to be concerned about, especially in the light faction. sure, he didn't know about red, but that was an anomaly hidden by alter.
in this case, to spot another person like this? were they also a member of alter as well?
"i have to ask," lince said as he cleared his throat. "that beast just over the bridge, that didn't happen to be your handiwork, did it?"
"are you talking about that monkey?" the man replied. "ah yes, i simply wanted to just pass through here, but it was quite determined to not let me go any further. so i guess you could say that it's my handiwork."
it wasn't as if lince couldn't have guessed the answer to his question-more so, he needed to confirm it in his mind, just how cautious they needed to be with this person. would running away even be considered a good idea in this case?
"and why are you here?" zon asked. while lince was thinking of the best question to follow up with, zon had gotten straight to the point.
"why am i here? that's a good question," the man said, placing his hand on his chin. "i guess you could say this island attracted me. i could feel the strong power coming from it, so i decided to pop by."
"it turns out that this island has attracted quite a few people here, and now seeing these beasts and more heading this way, i have to ask, why are so many people even here?"
now lince was trying to figure out whether the question was something to bait them or not, but he supposed if they were an enemy, he would have attacked straight away.
just as they heard that, though, they could hear the sound of footsteps approaching on the bridge from behind.
the two of them immediately turned their heads, and both lince and zon recognized who the two were who had immediately drawn their swords.
they rushed across the bridge and jumped to the side, both of their swords pointed at zon. "ah great, these are the two that you said you met before, right?" lince asked, as he looked at the light faction warriors who had their weapons pointed toward zon.
lince knew them well-it was ricar, the head of the dawnblade clan, along with beatrix, one of the new elders in the group.
'having their swords drawn out towards us because of zon is understandable, but is the other man in front of us really someone that they can side with as well?' lince thought.
"you have been kind to answer our questions. what's your name?" lince asked.
"my name? you really are polite. my name is mosak," the man answered.
"and about the people that you said you came across and met before-were they wearing the same light clothing as these two, and are they still of this world?"
the man then chuckled.
"i told you they attacked me, and anyone who attacks me deserves death," mosak answered, still not coming towards anyone. it seemed he was going to stay true to his word.
but lince had an idea, and he made a suggestion as he leaned in to whisper to zon.
"if we were to team up with the other two... then what are our chances?" lince asked. zon looked at the two of them, thought back to how they fought, and gave his answer. "1 in 10. a 1 in 10 chance that we will win."
