Chapter 157 157 – Venting

Elise and Lynn came out of the bushes, making the two people dragging Megan gasp.

“Relax, Vin, Diana,” Lynn spoke while raising her hands. “We’re on your side. You two have Megan tied up. That means you’re not her ally, right?”

Those two people looked at each other.

“Lynn is trustworthy, Vin.” The light brown-haired woman explained. “It’s been four years I’ve been a member of the town patrol squad with her. She is one of the best.”

“I see.” The man with the thin beard nodded. “I trust you. It was you who said that something was wrong with this traitor.”

Megan growled at being gagged, and Diana slapped her. “Shut up, old lady!”

“Follow us.” Lynn nodded her head in the direction of her hiding place.

Once there, Vin threw Megan to the ground so violently, right in front of Rupert.

“You were seriously injured because of her, Rupert. Even if it was indirectly.” Lynn crossed her arms over her chest, looking coldly at the former leader. “Do you want to beat her?”.

“I want to take a rest.” Rupert leaned his back against one of the trees. “Go ahead if you want.”

Lynn looked at her two other campmates. They both just signaled for the big braided woman to do what she wanted.

“Okay, then.” Lynn crouched down and opened the gag in Megan’s mouth.

“I made a mistake! I’m really sorry!” Megan shouted with teary eyes. “Zak and Greyson asked me…”

A fist from Lynn cut off the former leader’s words. “You made the struggles and sacrifices of our comrades in vain! You failed us!”

Megan tried to retort, but Lynn sat on her stomach and started beating her.

“Don’t do anything.” Raymund gave a warning. “Let her vent. If you stop her, there will be unnecessary fights. And by letting her, your position as their ally becomes even stronger.”
