“What if I refuse?” Gwain’s tone grew colder.

“Then I’ll have no choice but to defend them!” Without waiting for a response,
Xarri lashed out, launching a sudden strike toward Hank, who was still pinning
Julian underfoot.
Hank was caught completely off guard!
He was no weaker than Wyatt, who had once held his ground against
Emmanuel. Yet now, he couldn’t even withstand a single strike from Xarri.
When he reflexively tried to deflect the blow, he was sent soaring as if carried
by the wind, the bones in his arm screaming with pain!
Thud! He slammed into the ground, dazed.
“Screw you If it’s a fight you want, then so be it!” Wyatt had always maintained a sense of honor. During the duel between Xarri and Gwain, he refrained from interfering and had never even considered launching any surprise attacks. However, when Xarri made his move against Hank, Wyatt

knew it was time to step in!
“Wyatt Let’s call a truce!” To Wyatt’s surprise, Gwain intervened, his voice cold
and dismissive. “Those two likely have nothing of value to share anymore.
They’re not worth our time. Let them go!” With that, Gwain turned on his heel
and walked away, leaving no room for argument. Wyatt couldn’t believe it,
but he hurried to assist Hank and followed behind Gwain.
“Mr. Gwain, why did you want to retreat?” Wyatt questioned, still grappling
with confusion after the abrupt departure. Gwain kept his face stoic and cold.
“Hank’s injured, and that woman’s skill may be beyond yours. Xarri knew this
and struck where it would weaken us the most!”
Wyatt clenched his jaw, frustration boiling just beneath the surface! He
understood that Gwain’s retreat was a sign of his own doubts about
defeating Xarri. If Gwain had been sure of his victory, he wouldn’t have
backed down. But there was no point in dwelling on the facts–Wyatt had to
keep his thoughts to himself. Hank, perceptive as ever, gave Wyatt a
reassuring pat on the shoulder, suggesting he should bear with it for now.

“How are you both holding up?” Xarri asked, offering a hand to Julian as he
helped him up. Quell assisted Ashton with a similar level of concern.
“Hehe… Could be better.” Julian gave a wry smile, showing no signs of fear. “If
you think you can get the Dragon Tome out of me, you’re out of luck–I
wouldn’t spill a word, and I wouldn’t tell you even if I remembered it….”
Xarri chuckled, appreciating Julian’s straightforward nature!
Quell interjected with a frosty tone. “Don’t worry, our interest isn’t in the
Dragon Tome. We’re friends of Emmanuel!” Hearing that, Julian and Ashton’s
faces brightened with hope. “Is that true?”
“Yes, let’s put the rest aside for now and focus on treating your wounds!” Xarri
suggested with a nod. Similar to Emmanuel, he was adept in both medicine
and martial arts. Given the vast supply of herbs in the Ancient Woods, he was
well–equipped to handle Julian and Ashton’s wounds effectively. They
needed immediate attention to ensure they could leave the forest in one
piece.

Meanwhile, Emmanuel and Sage dashed down the mountain. At the base,
they stumbled upon a pool of blood.
While Emmanuel was busy analyzing the blood to determine how recent it
was, Sage called out not far away, “Commander, there are bloodstains and
battle signs here too!” Rushing over, Emmanuel assessed the situation. With
his extensive battlefield medical knowledge, he could tell that the blood from.
