Angel, who was standing beside Leoric, smirked when she saw Emily's action. Leoric untangled himself from her embrace and glanced at Alec.
"Can you escort Emily to her cabin? It is a difficult time, and I don't have time to deal with her tantrums." Loeric said dispassionately.
Alec, who also has not recovered from the shock of what happened earlier, pulled Emily by her hand and led her down the stairway. He wanted to calm his nerves with alcohol, and he knew that Emily had a few bottles in her room.
"Do you think they will come back?" The captain asked apprehensively.
"I don't know," Leoric answered gloomily. "Can you have someone get all the weapons in the boat? How many torches do you have? Are there flame throwers?"
"We do have a dozen torches and three flame throwers. But with the number of scorpions, our fuel will soon run out even before we can kill one-fourth of them." Captain Niel answered Leoric.
