Runa squatted in front of Leva's face. "You are lucky. We are not allowed to bring our war wolves. They were now sleeping comfortably in their cages, watched over by my grandfather. Otherwise, when we attack, they will automatically attack. And they will attack without mercy. If we attack with kicks and fists, they will attack with their fangs."
Leva couldn't respond and just winced in pain.
Kat, who was still in a crawling position, gulped. She had been looking around.
I'm also looking forward to what the girl is waiting for.
"You're looking for this?" Miro came to the amber-eyed woman while carrying a white dog.
Kat widened her eyes, then Miro threw the dog on the ground.
"Rex!" Kat crawled over to the dog and checked on him.
"Don't worry, I won't have the heart to kill your pet," Miro said in a cold tone. "But, I have to admit, you were great at training him. I don't know how you teach that dog to do stealth, but unfortunately, I'm an expert at dealing with things like that."
Kat didn't look at Miro and continued to pet her dog.
"So, what should we do with them?" Heath pressed his foot against Leva's head even more.
I turned my head to Brown, who could only reply, "If I can control them, I'll stop this."
"Please, stop it." Seb came out from behind the big tree with a timid face. This was quite a shock to me, who thought the man had already run away. I can't imagine how much he forced himself to stay there. His legs were shaking so much.
"Oh, it turns out that there are cowards here too. The others are trying to defend themselves while you are just hiding." Runa got up and went to the blonde-haired man. "Tell me, what kind of reason can make us not kill all of you."
"I-I know that the reason Ivan did the ritual was because of Leva. I apologize for what I was about to say. However, Ivan did all of that of his own free will. We didn't ask him, let alone force him."
Runa raised an eyebrow. "When did we say that we already trusted you? You could just kill Ivan and hide him somewhere, right?"
"Why did we do it…."
"I know what you want to say." Runa sneered. "Your tribe is too small, and there is no way it will mess with a bigger tribe like Acornhull. Just doing something offensive was risky, let alone killing a member of a larger tribe? We …."
"Enough." Heath cut off Runa's words in a firm tone, then sighed and lifted his head from Leva's head. "You guys feel it too, right? Our guardian spirit gave us orders not to kill them?"
Runa gritted her teeth. Her eyes began to fill with tears. "Since when do we indulge in such abstract things?"
Anca, the mother, pulled her knives from Manu's and Eric's necks, got up, and went to her husband. She then said in a hoarse voice. "You know yourself, right? We have fought those orders many times and have had many consequences. In the end, we get the harshest punishment. Ivan fought the voice in his heart and still insisted on going here. Now he's gone."
"Then, shall we just leave them alone?" Runa's voice started to sound like a beast's growl.
"I'll be staying here for a while to watch over them and investigate Ivan's disappearance." Miro came to Seb, who was shaking even more. My male colonist had to look up to see the face of the big tall man.

I shudder to see the overall stats of the guy. For now, we're safe because he's an 'ally.' However, if he was opposite us, it would be a nightmare.
"Are you sure, Miro?" Anca asked her eldest son. "Aren't you worried that they will kill you?"
"Just let them try." Miro laughed a little. "And take it easy, Mom. You already know me, right? I can't be killed that easily."
Heath patted his wife on the shoulder. "That's right. Miro is very reliable, honey. You don't have to worry about him."
My eyes fell on the wounds on Miro's arms, a sign that he's been in a lot of fighting, probably related to life and death.
He is not someone to be underestimated.
Runa started to cry. She walked away from Seb and hugged her mother, who was also starting to have tears in her eyes. Heath and Miro joined them, silent in tears.
Meanwhile, my other colonists came to Leva to check on their comrade. The red-haired woman winced in pain and clutched her chest but still said. "I'm fine."
"You are clearly not doing well." Using a rag, Gwen wiped the vomit on Leva's face and hair. "All the attacks are nasty, especially the kicks."
Ivan's family let go of each other's arms, then Heath patted his eldest son on the arm. "Good luck, Son. Hope you can get some clear truth about your brother."
"I'll do my best, Dad," Miro answered in a firm tone.
Heath, Anca, and Runa started to rearrange their things. After that, they walked away without saying goodbye to my people.
My colonists also fell silent, and only Miro waved and said. "Goodbye."
Just past a few meters, Runa stopped walking, turning his head to my colonists with a sharp look. "No matter what happens, I will not forgive all of you."
I fell to the ground when Ivan's family finally left. My colony is really lucky.
Miro faced my colonists with his arms folded across his chest. "For a few days or even weeks, I will be a part of this tribe. I hope we can become good friends."
My colonists were still silent.
