The exchange of words ended between them with Sam's reply.
He stood on his vulture and along with his friends flew away without waiting for them. He didn't fly towards the city, rather towards the woods into the clouds.
Neither Vickers nor Arc stopped him. Because Vickers didn't stop him because he didn't think that Sam would be a variable in the upcoming battle.
As for Arc, he has a whole another reason for that.
Arc looked at Vickers and said.
"Today, you can finally go home. You don't have to guard this place anymore, regardless of whatever the outcome of the battle was."
"That is true. So, how do you want to do this?"
"Whether it is an all-out battle or a duel, I don't mind. But I prefer to choose the latter. I am honestly tired of this bloodshed."
