Chapter 489 Was He Going To Die

Lance held the two letters in his hands and stared at them with angry eyes. He said it was Rocky who led Isis to Mount Clouds. Marin and Sabina were worried he may tear the letters apart. They were curious of what was in the letters, but afraid to ask further because Lance seemed to be fuming.

"Commander in Chief," Marin asked. "What's in those letters?" Marin waited for a response.

Lance looked up from the letters and stared directly at Rocky with piercing eyes. Rocky glanced at the two letters. He started to feel like it was something about him.

"Read them yourself." Lance dropped the letters. Marin caught both of them.

Sabina joined Marin in opening the letters. After reading the letters, they both let out a gasp.

"I am trapped in Mount Clouds," one of the letters said. It was signed by Rocky. The other letter had an entirely different message, yet they seemed to have been written by the same person because the handwriting of the two were the same.

The letter that bore Rocky's signature suggested that Isis went to Mount Clouds in the first place because she received a letter from Rocky.

"Perhaps someone pretended to be Rocky? Maybe they used Rocky to lure Isis into a trap," Sabina speculated.

"Everyone knows that the Deputy Commander in Chief wouldn't be gullible. Maybe Isis held on to the other letter to compare the handwriting. We could always ask Commander Rocky directly." Tod joined the group.

"Was this letter written by you?" Marin handed one of the letters to Rocky.

Rocky did not deny that the letter was written by him. It was a letter he wrote to Camp Director Louis when he was still in logistics camp.

Marin then switched the letter in her hands with the one that said, "I am tra

Rocky knew that he was powerless against Lance. He no longer tried to defend himself. Still, he found it disappointing that Lance was gullible enough to fall for this.

"Commander in Chief, let Rocky explain himself." Marin tried to calm Lance down. "It will be too late if you kill him." Marin was breathing heavily. She couldn't handle the idea of Rocky being killed. She felt deep sadness and heaviness in her heart.

"No need." Rocky seemed calm. "I don't need to explain myself. But I will not go down without a fight." Rocky's mood shifted. Rocky hated that Lance did not trust him enough, but he had enough pride in him to not beg to be believed. He knew that Lance was now deaf to his explanations. The only option he had was to flee.

He knew that he had to fight with Lance. However, Lance was already at the Divine Stage. It would be impossible for a spirit manipulator merely at the third grade of the Heavenly Stage to defeat someone of that power.

Rocky's mind was spinning. He had to quickly make a decision. Was fighting him worth it? Did he have time to flee? Lance could easily kill him with a flick of a hand. What should he do?
