Chapter 279 Can't leave
"Feba, let him go if he wants to." Jack came forward and said. He didn't wanna force anyone to stay. If Faneel wanted to leave this place then he was more than happy for him to do so.
After all, it's his own independent choice. The only people he would be against going out alone would be his girls as they were dear to him.
And he was ready to fight with them if they tried to leave. As their lives were more important to him.
Feba listened to Jack's words and turned her head to look him in the eyes. She looked back at Faneel and saw his determined expression she let out a sigh.
She could tell that it was useless trying to stop him.
"Ok, then you can leave. But make sure to be careful." She said as she looked at Faneel in the eyes.
He was her coworker and her friend, she would not like it if something were to happen to him.
"Don't worry about me," Faneel said and a smile formed on his face.
He then looked around for the exit to the mansion and took out his phone he wanted to call his backup here.
As he looked through his phone a frown appeared on his face. He moved his head back up and looked at Vieva. "Hey, there is no network here. I won't be able to call backup, can you teleport me to some safe place from where I can go home?" He asked Wing his brows raised.
For some strange reason, he couldn't get any network at this place even though his phone was connected to Red Collars personal satellite that gives a signal at most of the places in the world.
However, he was not too surprised by the fact, as he knew that when it comes to something related to magic his phone loses signal.
Like previously he lost his phone signal near the portal to another dimension.
"Sorry, but I can't send you outside," Vieva said as she took in a deep breath and took another sip of whisky.
Her voice resounded in the room and everyone looked at her with frowns on their faces. They couldn't understand why Vieva would say that.
"Why?" Faneel asked as he stepped forward. He wanted to get out of this dangerous place and cash out his mission rewards before anyone else could.
"Why can't we send him out?" Jack also moved towards Vieva and sat down beside her, he looked into her eyes with a confused expression on his face.
Feba stood still at her place in silence. She didn't speak anything.
Vieva took in a deep breath and looked at Jack. After a minute of silence, she placed the whisky bottle down on the table and let out a sigh.
"Ravina has already seen him, he will surely die if he goes out. They might even use him to blackmail us." Vieva said and glanced at Feba.
She could tell that both Feba and Faneel were friends and if the dragons were to blackmail Feba then she would definitely go out to protect him.
And if that happened then Jack would too go out with her, while he would also follow every condition they will put forward.
They might even ask for the singularity ruby back. And Vieva didn't want this situation to occur.
Jack heard her words and instantly understood what was going through her mind, he then raised his head and looked at Faneel. "Sorry, I can't let you out." He said.
Feba gulped her saliva and looked at Faneel too. "Faneel I think Jack is right, you should stay here. It's too dangerous for you to go out." She said in a worried tone.
Faneel listened to them and his eyes widened. "I already told you guys! Those dragons are not after me! They are after you and they can come here anytim.... Ahh..." Before he could finish his words he felt a sudden pressure on the back of his head and then his consciousness blackened.
His body turned powerless and he fell down on the floor with a thud.
Feba looked at his body falling down with a confused expression as she couldn't tell what happened to him suddenly.
While Jack on the other hand instantly understood what happened to Faneel.
'Vieva used magic on him to turn him unconscious.' He thought and looked at Vieva. "You could have been gentler." He said.
"Hmph! He was talking so loudly, and I was gentle." She said in a an annoyed tone.
"Faneel!" Feba quickly squatted down near his unconscious body and tried to wake him up.
"Feba don't worry, he is fine. Vieva used magic in him to make him fall asleep."
Suddenly Jack's voice rang in her ears and only then did she stop and turned her head to look at him.
She stayed silent for a moment and then understood why Vieva did it, it was for Faneel's own safety.
He was adamant about going out of here and could have gotten himself killed. It was better for him to be unconscious for few days.
She thought and sighed. Her body moved and standing up she moved near the table and sat down in front of Jack. Her eyes then landed on the whisky bottle on table.
"Can I get some." She asked while gulping her saliva and looking at Vieva.
"Sure." Vieva said and stood up. "Jack lets go and take Hena back here too, before those dragons reach her." She said.
Jack took in a deep breath and nodded. Standing up he looked at Faneel's body laying on the floor. "Teleport him inside one of the rooms." He said.
Vieva listened to Jack's words and with a flick of her finger Faneel's unconscious body disappeared form the floor.
Feba looked at the events and stayed silent she continued to drink her whisky.
"Let's go now." Jack said with a nod as he looked at her in the eyes.
Vieva nodded back at him, "Sure."
