Chapter 18 - Conflicts

Since Madilynn kept her pace, she came to Emre and Allison before Amos and said, "Hey, we have just met. Why did you capture the man?" she asked Allison.

She was interested in the two. "Stupid blonde!" Allison said as rolling her eyes.

With his mouth open, Emre turned to Allison and said "Hey, she's white but her hair is brown. You are the blonde here!"

"You know what I mean when I say stupid blonde" Allison ignored. Emre shook his head with a smile.

Looking at Emre's opposition and the duo's dialogue, Madilynn said "Oh, did you meet before the mission? You were much luckier." When Emre saw Amos throwing his hand towards his sword, he quickly pulled his sword and ran towards Madilynn. Madilynn panicked and wanted to pull back. Allison yelled to Madilynn "No! Run towards me Don't go on defense! " When Piper and Harper noticed Madilynn, they started running.

Amos swung his sword at Madilynn's leg. When Madilyn heard the sound of a sword swinging behind her, she realized what was happening. She quickly threw herself forward and began to roll. There was 3 meters distance between Emre and Amos. The two were looking into each other's eyes.

Amos was very compatible with his sword, though not as if it was a limb, but seemed too familiar with his sword. Emre was holding the sword in front of him with both hands. If Amos struck quickly, he would not be fatally wounded, but at least he could stop him for a second. Allison came and stood beside him.

Amos spat on the ground. "Stupid Japanese. You prevented me from killing her. You owe me. Now you are defending him. If you don't retreat, I'll cut your limbs first and kill them and torture you."

Emre took a little distance from Allison and started circling Amos "If he attacks me, stab your sword without hesitation. If he attacks you, I'll do the same. If we take him between us, he cannot act as he wants."

Amos smiled: "You think you're smart. I can kill not only two of you, but 5 people at once. Don't think of yourself as anything!" Harper and Piper who came from behind drew their swords. Women had witnessed Amos trying to kill Madilynn. Harper was standing with two short swords in her hand. Piper was using a long sword. Amos started getting angry at being surrounded by 4 people.

Madilynn got up and grabbed her sword and asked "Why did you want to kill me?"

Amos looked nervously to his right and left, and when he finally saw that Piper was holding her sword weakly, he attacked her. Although Emre could not keep up with this sudden change, he swung his sword towards Amos. Harper, on the other hand, read Amos' movements with awesomeness and hit the sword at an opposite angle. Amos' sword crossed Piper and advanced into the void. After Amos threw himself in that direction with acceleration, he quickly started running towards the town.

The other 5 people did not follow Amos. As Amos disappeared, Piper turned to Harper and said "Thank you very much."

Emre sheathed his sword and turned to Allison. Allison said with a smile "You can whistle for it!"

Emre wrinkled his nose and asked "Are you sure?"

Allison said, turning towards Madilynn, "You run without looking around. You should have been more careful when you saw me draw my sword"

After Emre drew back, he asked "Would you like to move with me?"

Madilynn immediately spoke to Emre "Thank you for saving my life. I can follow you on this mission."

Emre nodded in approval. Then he looked at Piper and Harper. Harper felt indecisive. Then she asked "Acting together will of course be advantageous. But what did you mean by saying 'move with you'?"

Before Emre spoke, Allison stepped in "You will share your meal and you will obey his order. Something like that."

Looking at Allison, Emre said "You're crossing the line. I have to put you in your place!"

Then, looking at the others, he pointed at Madilynn "Instead of warning you as you approached us, what did this Japanese say? She said something like a stupid blonde or something, right? Since you are not blonde either, you are confused. Then you stopped because you needed to ask us questions. Meanwhile, that man attacked you. She warned you at the last minute to save yourself from that man. However, if she hadn't warned you, the man's arm would have been severed, not your leg. Because I took my position, the man would not be able to change his direction due to running extremely fast. In other words, she is either together with that man, or she thinks that the chaos will make her feel safer. "

Emre sat on the ground and said "Okay, now that you know what you need to know about her, get the hell out of my head. You can be on my team. Your reflexes are successful." As he was talking, he summoned Madilyyn to his team.

Enraged, Allison pointed her sword at Emre and said "The next time you slander me like this, I will fight you to death"

Turning to Allison, he said "I don't slander. Also, it will not happen again. I won't help you even if you die. I discarded people who were lying when I was normal person. Will I keep them around now? Get out!"

Allison pretended to shiver with anger and walked towards the town. Emre hit the ground with his fist in anger. Piper looked at Emre and asked "How did you understand?"

Emre looked at Piper and said "You don't need to be a scholar to understand that she was walking away by laughing. You cannot tremble like that with anger. She almost laughed soundly."

Piper shook her head and added "My dad is a psychologist. He would say 'Sociopaths can imitate human behavior very well.' If she's a psychopath, you're a sociopath."

Emre got up from the ground and opened his bag and poured it on the floor "I was the last. I only had 14 minutes. I had no opportunity to prepare like you. If I rescued her and became partners, she would give me half of her food and drink. But what did she do? Do my anger and demeanor seem fake to you? Then why don't you buzz off!"

Then after putting his three or five things back in his bag, looking at Madilynn, "Do you want to come?" he asked. Madilynn nodded in agreement. Emre started walking towards the town. Madilynn followed him.

Piper turned to Harper and asked, "Shall we move together?"

Harper, on the other hand, followed Emre with her eyes and answered. "I think I'll join them. You are just a burden. I think you are the least likely to survive after seeing your sword grip. He is also bad at using weapons, but his character is good. He had swung his sword without mercy at the man who attacked you. If I let him kill you, he would have killed the man who killed you. His movements and control are very good. The life of the killer-spirited man was saved by weak links twice. If that killer targets him and the others don't help, he will kill him. So, I will join them. "

Piper looked down behind Harper as she walked away. 'Am I just a burden? He was going to kill my killer and I accused him of sociopathy. What's wrong with me! Every minute that passes here is a bigger source of stress. I guess I can't get used to these. I am the weakest link." She raised her head to sky with thought. A few minutes later, the duo of Boden and Juan came to Piper.

"Hi, I'm Boden"

"Juan"

"Did you see anyone else? Why are you looking up? "

Piper turned her head in two and swallowed "I'm Piper. Hmm. Yes, I saw everyone. I have seen all the agents with including you."

"What's wrong?" Juan asked, not liking Piper's mood.

Piper looked at Juan and said "I don't want to be a burden on you, you can go. Others are long gone."

Boden asked scratching his beard "Why did you stay?"

Piper replied "They said I was a burden."

Juan squinted "Are the other five moving together?"

Piper shook her head. "You don't have to give up," Juan said, holding Piper by the shoulder. "You can come with us. It doesn't matter what the others do."

Piper bowed her head and said "The others are not with me; I have dealt with them. I'm a bad person" and she started crying.

Boden's mouth fell open. He took out vodka from his purse, poured it into a glass and handed it to Piper. "Why don't we take a break?" With Boden's talking skills, Piper felt little better and told the events. When Juan finally heard what Harper had said to Piper, his eyes brightened. He thought "She's probably my biggest competitor." After the trio chatted for a while, they set off again.

Amos sneaked up on the town and reached the bottom of the town walls, lying on the ground. After watching the surroundings, he saw that no one from inside was going outside the town walls. 'Climbing the town walls sneakily looked risky. There is only one castle gate. Will others be able to enter? I wonder what they will encounter when they enter. They should best take the risk.' He thought and started watching in disguise.
