Chereads / The Ice Demon / Chapter 23 - Misunderstanding

Chapter 23 - Misunderstanding

With my new mission given to me I go find Jade Julian to tell them the details. Lucy finds Jade easily but we're having a hard time finding Julian. I then ask around the army and a couple of them said that Julian went to go scout ahead to make sure this area is secure. Seeing how Daniel betrayed us not to long ago I started to get suspicious about if Julian is secretly a spy as well. I immediately asked which way Julian went and one soldier said that he was heading in the direction of Suncia. I was even more nervous when he said that. Lucy Jade and I all started to rush to Suncia to try to stop Julian.

When we ran down the road we noticed Julian wasn't as far as we originally thought and I immediately just tackled him to stop him from going any further. Julian then yelled," What the hell are you doing!?" I got up holding Julian and said," Julian we know what you were planning on doing so don't try hiding it." Julian confused and said," What do you mean all I was going to do is scout are next target." Lucy kept said," Nikita are you sure he's a spy, cause he doesn't look like he is." Julian yelled," You think I'm a spy! I would never betray my homeland!" Jade put his spear near his throat and said," Then why did you leave camp without reporting to me or Nikita on where you were going?" Julian explained to us that he couldn't find us so he told a few others on where he was going. Which made me think if he was a spy why would he tell people where he was going. Jade just said," Fine you win this round but I keeping and eye on you and if you do anything to make me believe your a spy. Your dead." He lowered his short spear and put it away. While Lucy says," Jade don't you think that's to much. And I'm sure Julian isn't a spy or anything like that." While I was starting to agree with Lucy I can tell Jade is still paranoid about the fact that we still have to trust him.
