Eula's two-week stay in her home began the same day. None of the mercenaries had any opportunity to relax due to their reduced numbers. But also since they had to remove the stain of betrayal that become the source of their anguish.
It wasn't strange that people's trust in the mercenaries had gone much below than anyone had thought. Qamnol's and Avvo's betrayal completely overshadowed Ashton's achievements. So much so, that the local security and residents did not hesitate for a moment before getting hostile towards them.
The hate Eula's consorts had towards Ashton only added fuel to the fire. The locals had known the consorts for some time, thus their words were widely believed and soon became facts in the eyes of those who loved Eula.
The scaredy consorts even managed to make everyone believe that had they been alongside Eula, she would not have to suffer through the mental scarring of being completely overwhelmed by the terrorists.
