This order was ruthless.

It clearly showed no regard for Andriya s life.

She felt like a used rag, nonchalantly thrown away after use.

All kinds of emotions welled up in her heart.

Frustration, depression, rage, hatred, regret…

She really resented this order.

But could Andriya refuse?

She couldn’t!

She was already deeply involved, unable to extricate herself. She could only watch herself helplessly being driven step by step into the abyss.

“Collen, let’s quicken our pace.”

Andriya took a few deep breaths to adjust her emotions and spoke in the calmest tone possible.

She wanted to end this ordeal as soon as possible.

As long as there was a result, that would suffice.

No matter what her outcome would be, at least she wouldn’t have to live in constant dread and fear like she was now.

“Alright.”

Dalton walked ahead, sulking and leading the way. When he responded, he didn’t even turn his head.

In the past, whenever he spoke with Andriya, regardless of what he was doing, his gaze would always linger on her face.

Not like now, where he didn’t even cast her a glance.

Andriya was too preoccupied to notice this detail.

The relationships and emotions between people slowly eroded and grew cold over such small details and repeated neglect, eventually becoming extremely rigid.

just like strangers who had never met or understood each other.

Dalton was starting to have difficulty recognizing the person behind him; was she still the Andriya he knew?

That innocent, pure, kind girl with an unrivaled radiant smile.

He sighed quietly and his emotions were extremely complex.

Shaking his head, Dalton cast aside his mixed feelings and stopped thinking about Andriya.

Shifting his focus onto the clues left behind for him by the boss, he repeatedly confirmed what he needed to do next.

The boss left no information hidden and warned that this would be dangerous. If Dalton was unwilling to proceed, he could withdraw, as long as he kept this a secret.

But Dalton didn’t care whether it was dangerous or not.

All he wanted was to make those who forced Andriya to act unlike herself pay.

Anger raged in Dalton’s chest.

He increased his pace, not bothering to make a path, and directly ran over any thorns or weeds in his way.

Andriya followed behind him. Suddenly having no clear path to follow, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and endure it.

Well, this was what she had asked for.

Before long, they approached a hollow in the mountains and stopped to survey the area.

The entrance to the hollow was narrow, but once inside, the area was wide and open.

If one was to look down from above, the hollow in the night resembled a ferocious beast about to devour someone.

The tall, straight reeds growing on flat ground, as tall as a person and loom like sword, under the illumination of the “Moonlight”, casted looming, cold and gloomy shadows.

Highlighting the even more chilling atmosphere within the hollow. Perhaps it was due to her guilt, but as Andriya stood at the entrance looking inside, her legs began to tremble and she didn’t dare to venture rashly inside.

“What’s wrong?”

Hearing that the footsteps behind him had stopped, Dalton turned his head to ask.

They were almost at their destination now, so she better not cause any trouble at this point.

“It’s…it’s nothing.”

Andriya’s voice quivered slightly. She quickly bit her lip to use the pain as a distraction to help regain her composure.

She raised her right hand, brushed her hair behind her right ear, unintentionally caressed the front and back of the Green Gem to activate the function to transmit a voice message,

At the same time, she asked, “Are you sure your boss is in here?”

Dalton shrugged his shoulders and truthfully replied, “I’m not sure, but I’m guessing he should be here. His clues lead to here, and there are no traces leading elsewhere.”

“Really?”

Andriya glanced inside the hollow and said as if musing, “It’s so big and flat inside, with only weeds and shrubs, no wild beasts, indeed, it’s a good place to stay overnight.”

“Isn’t it.”

Dalton chimed in with Andriya’s words, “The boss is the boss. Even his choice of camping spots is better than ours.

As he spoke, he turned around, cupped his hands around his mouth to form a loudspeaker, and yelled towards the hollow, “Boss, we’re here to join you. Please accept us.”

When it came to acting, the five members of the Brotherhood Troupe were far from professional, but they weren’t too bad either.

As part of the Brotherhood Troupe, Dalton was nothing if not diligent. Unaware of the dramas unfolding elsewhere, he still carried on with his role meticulously.

Even if he’s performing a solo act, he couldn’t afford to slip up.

The echoes of his shouts bounced around the hollow, but there was no reply.

“Could it be he’s not here?”

Dalton muttered to himself in confusion and then stepped inside the hollow to search.

Andriya had no choice but to follow. Along with Dalton, they searched all over the flat ground inside the hollow, calling out to the boss.

Inside the cave, Elise was watching this scene with great amusement.

What?

Wondering why Dalton couldn’t find the cave?

For better camouflage and to wait for her turn in the script, Elise Clark used a Mimicry Door panel from her bag to block the entrance to the cave. Not even the human eye or the Reconnaissance Magic Tools could detect it. No matter what, for entertainment and thrills, Elise was willing to do anything. Even if it meant eating into her own rations.

“Where on Earth did you hide?”

To Elise’s surprise, she couldn’t locate Link either.

This guy was really good at hiding.

Next time, she’d definitely play a game of hide-and-seek with this guy to see who was better at hiding.
