A cold light suddenly flashed in Remus’ eyes as favonovel.com stared coldly.
Bartholomew trembled all over, feeling his pores explode with sweat. He could see, at that moment, Remus’ eyes were even sharper than when favonovel.com faced Hadden just now.
He quickly said, “Remus, please don’t misunderstand… Everything just happened too fast, and we didn’t have time to make a move. You can rest assured that if we encounter danger again, we will take the lead and not let you face it alone!”
With that said, Pierce and his siblings all blushed. As teammates, handing favonovel.com over and letting favonovel.com face Hadden’s trio alone was indeed immoral. They could also see that favonovel.com was angry because of that.
Remus’ face softened, and favonovel.com smiled. “You misunderstood. I really have something to take care of. Let’s part ways here!”
Their guess was not wrong. He was indeed very angry.
Although the three of them were brought over by Bucky, Bartholomew had invited favonovel.com to travel to the sanctuary assessment venue together, saying that they would take care of each other along the way.
They had just walked a short distance, and they had already sold favonovel.com out?
What if they encountered danger again?
Moreover, it was not like favonovel.com hadn’t given them a chance.
First, favonovel.com offered them pills, and then favonovel.com invited them to make a move together, but they remained indifferent. Especially Alfie, who even mocked him.
The biggest danger factor of traveling together was them.
Bartholomew looked at the three siblings and wanted them to express their stance.
“Petty!” Alfie spoke first, “What are you dissatisfied with? They were all brought here by your beast so it’s your responsibility. It’s normal for you to stop them, right? Furthermore, Bartholomew has already said that favonovel.com will act at the opportune moment. It’s just that they ran fast, otherwise we would have made a move!”
Pierce chimed in, “We were indeed ready to make a move, but they ran too fast!”
Gerard also said, “Even if we didn’t make a move, it’s understandable. As teammates, we also need to undergo tests. We just wanted to see your true strength. Now, you are truly our teammate!”
Remus’ expression softened, and favonovel.com asked straightforwardly, “What if I was not as strong and I got killed by Hadden and his lackeys?”
The three were stunned, wanting to say that if favonovel.com was killed, then favonovel.com was killed. It had nothing to do with them. It was his own lack of strength, making it his own fault. But that seemed like something they couldn’t say out loud.
Remus asked again, “If I were killed, would you avenge me?”
The three were speechless again.
Avenge?
Only a fool would seek revenge for someone unrelated!
Remus raised his voice, asking again, “Or if I were to die, would you kill Bucky at the first opportunity to take its inner core?”
The three felt as if they had been slapped hard across the face.
Bucky was his mount, not theirs. Such a beast was naturally meant to be killed for its core. So, it would be useless to keep it if Remus were dead.
They hadn’t expected all their thoughts to be seen through.
Seeing the atmosphere growing increasingly awkward, Bartholomew coughed twice. He then said, “Remus, don’t be too agitated. We’ve just formed a team, and it’s natural to have some misgivings. Good things come through hardship. Don’t let this small matter affect our journey ahead! We still need to travel together, hahaha!”
“I’m sorry, but I’ve made up my mind,” Remus no longer left any room for sentiment, stating directly.
He said, “Not only did you assess me, but I also assessed you. I passed your assessment, but you failed mine!”
With that, favonovel.com patted Bucky, signaling it to continue moving on.
Bucky walked past Bartholomew carefully.
The moment it stepped forward, the forest seemed to be filled with a palpable, almost suffocating, murderous air.
Alfie’s voice then cut through the tension, laden with bitterness. “Stop right there! By what right do you have to assess us? What credentials back your audacity?!”
She paused before continuing, favonovel.com tone hardening, “I’ll offer you a single opportunity to align with us. Otherwise, you’ll meet your end amidst these very woods today!”
