Chapter 66: Fight or Flight 1

66- Fight or Flight 1

Hehehe, looks like these kids found us.

Following this sentence, many men came out who were hiding behind trees and bushes. Then a man bald man with big beard came forward and spoke,

Hehehe, what are you kids doing in such a dangerous place. Did you by any chance get away from your parents and got lost in the forest? Or did you guys run away from your home to escape some shitty marriage fixed by your family?

Hearing this everyone started laughing.

And hearing this voice, I can confirm that this guy was the one who spoke earlier and from the looks of it, he must hold a high position in the group or he might even be the leader of the group. And his words might sound friendly, but I can sense the hidden malicious and killing intent behind the bald mans words.

The bald guys body is not much scary, he is about 5.6 or 5.7 feet tall, or in simple term he has a height equal to mine. And he has a huge tummy. Hes wearing nothing but a sleeveless blazer and a trouser. His tummy is sticking out of the blazer and this look does not resemble that of a killer but instead it resembles that of a drunkard. But that killer aura and eyes changes everything.

The other guys behind him, also give off the aura of cold blooded killers. If I am not wrong, then these guys are either bandits or mercenaries. And my senses are telling me to get away from here.

While I was thinking of how to run away from here, Armelia who was standing beside me replied, Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

No, actually I am the who got lost in the forest, while Orochi came into the forest to look for herbs and medicines. And we were just on our way out of the forest as Orochi is familiar with the route.

After she finished speaking, everyone present was silent and the bald man had a smile on his face. Meanwhile, I wanted to shove a rock inside Armelias mouth.

I seriously felt like, bringing her along with me was the biggest mistake that I made in my life.

Cant she just keep quiet or is she so nave that, she is unable to comprehend the situation we are in?

Damn...***

I cursed under my breath.

After a second or so, everyone started laughing loudly.

hahaha....

HAHA...

Vice leader I think you should try prophecy business....

Some people were laughing, some were making small sarcastic comments and same were looking at Armelia and I as if looking at fools.

I understood that I need to take action as soon as possible.

I used the Observation skill on everyone present.

.

But here I am being surrounded with such a line up, which puts me under a tremendous invisible pressure. Plus, some guys just called this bald guy as Vice leader, which means there is leader on top of him. Just this bald guy is at the Peak of demi-human stage and may step into Transformation level at any time, and there is the leader, whose cultivation must surely be in the Transmation level.

Also, there is a high chance that their group consists of multiple Vice leaders, which means if by any chance the leader, other vice leader and other members come here, then Armelia and I can only wait for death.

Just thinking about all this makes me wonder, if I was cursed or my luck has fallen down the hill.

Just as I was racking my brain to think of a way to escape away from here, the bald guy raised his hand and everyone stopped laughing. Then the bald guy spoke,

Oh, so thats how it is. If you want, we can send you out of the forest and look at our numbers, I am sure that you understand the principle of Strength in numbers, right? We can help each other.

Hearing this Armelia, looked at me. It is visible on her face that she believed the bald guys words, but she is waiting for my decision.

And from the corner of my eye, I caught a wicked smile on the Bald guys face which was only for a moment and it was replaced with a normal smile. From this I can confirm that, the bald guy saw that Armelia believed his words.

For Armelias naivety, I can only sigh inwardly. As much as I want to leave Armelia here and escape alone, I know that it is not possible because of the inheritance we got, as I have more things to obtain from it.

Right now, I have only two choices,

First, create a gap and escape from here.

Second, pretend to accept their so called help and when the time is right, escape.
