The tense silence that had taken over was shattered by Asher's words.
The very notion of placing a bounty was not something they were expecting him to say.
The group shifted uneasily, exchanging glances. Ceti was the first to voice her concern, "A bounty?"
But it was Isola's response that resonated with everyone the most.
Rising from her kneeling position, she looked at Asher with a cold, steely resolve, "I know you mean well...but I want to be the one to end them. I want to see the look in their eyes myself."
Asher nodded, having expected as much from Isola, "That's why I don't think we have much to worry about. This is the 4th mini dungeon. Amateurs don't make it this far, and most of them are either too cautious or too confident to chase bounties."
