If Hawkeye dies, we'll be in quite a bit of trouble.

As Yannick and Yoshua were panicking, a knock sounded at the room door.

“Who's there?” Hawkeye questioned nervously.

Zander's voice rang out from outside the door. “It's me.”

Hawkeye swiftly rushed over to open the door. “Quick, come in, Zander. It so happens that I've got something to discuss with you.”

Zander eyed the dagger in the man's hand curiously. “What are you doing?”

“Zander, I suspect that he's a spy. The principle of Theos Sect is to kill all rather than risk allowing a threat to remain. I'm planning to kill him here and now to tie up all loose ends,” Hawkeye explained.

“Oh? Why would you suspect that?” Zander queried.

“Earlier, he made an excuse of going to the washroom, but he actually wandered around. I searched everywhere near the washroom, but I saw no signs of him. For that reason, I suspect that he's a spy who came to survey the terrain,” Hawkeye elucidated.

“Why, you didn't tell him the truth?” Zander asked Zeke.


“I did, but he didn't believe me,” Zeke murmured.

“What truth?” Hawkeye wondered in bewilderment.

“Actually, I called him out for a chat just now. We are former classmates,” Zander lied.

Hawkeye was shocked.

“So, he was telling me the truth. I thought he was making up excuses. I didn't expect this kid to be your ex-classmate. How fortuitous!”

Zander flashed him a smile.

“That's also precisely why I came to seek you out this time. He's my ex-classmate, and he has a rather hot temper. If he offends you in any way, I hope you can forgive him. Don't take offense at him.”

“Since he's your ex-classmate, he's my friend as well. I'll naturally take good care of him on your behalf,” Hawkeye declared.

Glancing at Zeke, Zander communicated with him via energy. “Do you want me to finish him off since he disrespected you, Great Marshal?”

“Will it cause trouble?” Zeke asked in the same manner.

“Of course not. In Theos Sect, the cheapest thing is human life. The death of an inconsequential character like him is no big deal. It won't cause any trouble. Even if someone ends up suspecting me, I'll be able to settle things with a drop of spiritual water,” Zander answered.

Zeke was promptly taken aback, shocked by the ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness of the members of Theos Sect.

“Never mind, spare him. Someone like him will come in handy sooner or later,” he replied.

“Okay.”

Subsequently, Zander whirled around and left.

Meanwhile, Hawkeye regarded Zeke with a grin.
