"It was... it was Mr. Death!"
--silence--
The men who were about to engage in battle, stopped... as they saw that both of their leaders stopped as well.
.
"Dammit!!!" Connor exclaimed, immediately scaring the already frightened James.
"Wha...what's wrong big brother?"
"Tsk!
Dear little foolish brother.... do you know why I've been asking you this question?" Connor asked playfully.
James shook his head exaggeratedly, as he was still scared silly.
A while ago, he could've sworn that he had seen his life flash before his eyes... as Connor was just a few seconds away from slicing off his head.
The shock and fear had rendered his brain to stop functioning momentarily.
"You know what?
I also hired Mr. Death to deal with Eli as well.
So tell me, what does this mean for us?"
Connor looked at James, who kept shaking his head like a lizard... and felt like beating him up.
