Chapter 516 A Reason To Attack (Part 1)
?When Raze got up from his seat and started to walk away, it was only then that Harbour had somewhat realized what was being said.
"Grant my wish," he mumbled to himself, and then turned around to see the back of the individual. He reached his hand and got to his feet. "Wait… what do you…?"
As soon as he got up to his feet, his whole world started to warp and spin. He could feel an instant churn in his stomach, and as he took a step forward trying to move with the spinning world, he had fallen onto the floor and passed out.
"Alright, that's it, to the streets with him!" The barman said, as if he was already expecting it to happen.
Turning around, Raze walked over to the man, and the other members of the Alter group had got up to head over to him.
Himmy looked to be talking to the barman, explaining that he would deal with it before joining the rest of the group that had made a circle around the man on the ground.
"Do you know this guy or something?" Charlotte asked.
"No, I just thought he needed a drink to get his mind off things," Raze answered.
Anna was taking a deeper look at the side of his face that was visible, since the other half was pressing into the ground, and she had some notes.
"Harbour Dines, he was practically the head of the city for the Lethal Bite Clan. Dealing with Clan matters mostly when the Clan Head was away," Anna answered.
"Oh, so we managed to get our hands on quite an important figure then," Himmy raised an eyebrow thinking they had gained a stroke of luck.
But those seated nearby had overheard them talking and worried about what might happen to them had decided to speak up.
"It's not good news if you stay next to him, you know," the man said. "Harbour is not an important figure anymore. I'm surprised you haven't heard; it's been spreading around everywhere. Apparently, he betrayed the Clan, so they kicked him out and executed his family."
"Well, allowed them to commit suicide," another added.
"Same difference," the man continued. "He is a target now of the entire Lethal Bite Clan. So it would be best to stay away from him."
Hearing these words, it was at that moment that Himmy had picked him up off the ground and placed him on his shoulder.
"Someone who has hate for the Clan that we're looking into, this will be of good use to us," Himmy patted Harbour on the back a few times and carried on walking.
The others in the Inn just shook their heads as they looked at the sight. Thinking that the group of people must have thought they had nine lives to do such things.
Eventually, Himmy had brought Harbour back to the Inn that the group were staying at. Since he was dragged behind Himmy's shoulder, the other guests as well as staff didn't have a look at who was brought in.
Otherwise, they would have turned them away at the door. Once inside, they waited patiently for Harbour to wake back up as they had a number of questions to ask.
"Don't you guys have a spell that can like cure him of the alcohol in his body?" Himmy asked.
"There is one," Raze answered. "But I don't have Light Magic, so I'm unable to use it."
Because of that, all they could do was wait, and eventually, Harbour was coming to. He lifted his hand to his head as it was still spinning slightly and pounding constantly.
"I think it would be best if you have a drink of water," Himmy said.
Looking to his side, Harbour took the drink and started to gulp it down, but after doing so, he had a jolt.
"Wait a moment, who are you guys, you aren't from the Lethal Bite Clan, are you sent here by Niang to kill me!" Harbour was backing up, his back hit the backboard of the bed and the Qi was rising.
When looking at all of them though, he did remember one individual, the young man with the black hair who bought his drink.
"You can relax, we are the group from Alter, and we were the ones that made a request to save one of our own, but things seem to have gotten complicated," Himmy explained.
Harbour needed a few moments to get his head straight as he pressed his hand out. He started to think; he remembered reading the report because he had sent the team out to do such a job.
"I see… but if you are looking for information about what happened, I am afraid I can't help you, I no longer have my position," Harbour said, his head sinking into his chest, and memories of what had happened were surfacing again.
"We know, don't worry about that, which is why we wanted to speak to you," Anna added. "We had tagged along with the mission. So we know what had happened.
"Three men should have returned known as Ivor, A no name, and Bargo. They were meant to come back to report to us, but mission. So we know what had happened.
"Three men should have returned known as Ivor, A no name, nothing has occurred yet."
The Alter group were unaware that Harbour had lost his position due to the same mission and what had happened in the group.
They thought they were separate matters, but Harbour did know, and he was wondering what had occurred as well.
"You are waiting for a report… but all three of those that you are asking about, they are said to be missing within the clan. It is said that they have run away, but my guess now is, most likely Niang has captured them."
Judging from Harbour's words, Himmy had the same feeling, that these people were captured for whatever reason.
The thing was, what did they do now? It wasn't as if these were people of Alter; it didn't matter, and going into the base to try and find out more would be a risk.
"I have a question to ask," Raze said. "Are you aware of what your clan was trying to do, summon a Divine warrior, and has a Divine warrior appeared at the clan?"
These words had shocked Harbour considerably. How did this group know so much? What was going on? All of it was confusing.
"Wait… wait… I have a feeling that… our matters might be related, let me explain to you what has been happening within the Lethal Bite Clan and what has happened to my position."
Usually, Harbour wouldn't pour everything out to strangers, but he had never been in this type of position before. He had already lost everything and had no one to talk to.
To explain himself of what had occurred or who to blame. The group listened to everything, and they had quickly managed to put the pieces together.
How Niang was most likely behind the summoning of the Divine warrior, and how he had used the opportunity of the death of the warriors to his advantage to take over the clan.
"As far as I'm aware though, Niang failed in trying to summon a Divine warrior," Harbour answered.
This is what Raze was looking for, the only thing that had been troubling him, but now he had nothing left to hold him back.
