“We need more humans,” I rolled my eyes as this dirty minded person got it all right, “we lost a lot. Unlike other races, we lost most of our people in the beginning of all this.”
When I said this, I focused on Lily who shrugged.
“Why are you looking at me?”
“What Hye said is true!”
And at this moment, a face came up from the direction of the stairs, grabbing everyone’s attention.
Damn! At this moment, Isac came on board! I had to pray this girl would play her role as a boy much better than what she did before with the jumper.
Unlike the jumper, Hilary was a trained wardog who would sniff the scent of any tits from miles away!
“Who… Is he?” Hilary looked at me in a weird way, giving me the feeling she sniffed something..
Damn! Why was my luck with girls this bad? First was Karoline, then Hilary… Wait… “Where is Karoline?!” I suddenly recalled her, looking around but she was nowhere to be seen.
“This…” everyone seemed to get electrified when I asked this. I turned to Lily and she seemed like a cat who got caught while stealing fish.
“I… Last time I saw her was when we got to move to the frontlines… Does anyone else see her?” She turned and asked, but no one stepped in to help.
“So she is… Lost?!” I was surprised to hear that. Such a thing happened, and in such a battle… did that mean she… No way! She couldn’t be dead!
“Can’t you… Just…” the spearhead seemed to think about contacting her by messages.
“Damn fool! Did you forget? We can’t get in contact with each other right now!” I rolled my eyes, “go, go out now! Spread the word, let everyone look for her. Pray she is alright!”
“As if she is your girl!” Hilary rolled her eyes, and I only glared in silence to her.
“I know… I know… She is part of the team, I got it!” she raised both hands in the air. But before leaving, she leant over and painted a soft and long kiss over my lips while moving her eyes in the direction of all watching Lily.
These two girls… They were just acting so childish even in such a situation.
I watched them disembark and go towards the ground, talking and leading their forces around to search.
This girl… She seemed to give me lots of trouble of late. What went wrong in her head?
If she fought, then many would have noticed her. But it seemed something went wrong and she skipped the entire fight, or most of the critical part at least.
I knew she wasn’t dead. After all, her name was still there. I forgot to ask god’s about this. The feedback of all channels were cut off and no one knew what even happened here.
So my best guess was that she was injured somewhere. But to be honest, I didn’t truly believe in that.
The forces already buried the dead and took care of the wounded. So if she was wounded, she would have been found a long time ago.
Did she perhaps run away? Could this be what really happened?
I didn’t jump to conclusions. But if she wasn’t here, dead or alive, then there was no other explanation but that.
She ran away? What for? Sigh! Why did I get into such trouble when I felt hours ago I had nothing to shake me?
“She… Is nowhere to be seen!”
As I feared, after four hours of searching, the team returned with depressed heads and looked at me in such disgrace.
“Would she be…” Hilary stopped and I got what she wanted to say.
“She wasn’t acting herself out of late,” I sighed, “but that doesn’t mean she is a traitor.”
“Then…” Isabella paused, looked at Lily, “you dealt with her the most recently… Can you tell us anything that might help?”
“Sigh, I told him before… She looked weird, but she didn’t take any bait. I sat up for her,” Lily said in an annoying tone, “she didn’t look normal, but she never did anything to make her be in any fault.”
“She was smart,” Hilary sighed, and I wasn’t convinced with all this.
“If she was a bad person, she would have done anything in her power to demolish our work here,” I expressed what I had in mind.
“What about working with that enemy of ours?” Sara asked in such an aggressive way.
“She can’t be like this,” Angelica stepped forward, defending Karoline in such an unexpected way, “she might be hurt, might be facing trouble at times, but she isn’t a bad person. Come on guys, it’s Karoline!”
She looked around, and I saw everyone lowering their heads when their eyes came in contact with hers.
“We will keep looking for her,” I decisively said, “we will get to the bottom of this.”
“Let’s form teams to look out for her then,” Hilary could only sigh and accept my decision.
“I’ll lead them,” in such an unexpected move, Alex proposed and moved forward to lead the search team.
“I’ll come with you then,” Leo who stood all silent this time, seemingly got infected from the calm and peaceful nature of his girl, couldn’t stay silent and watch.
“Deal,” I didn’t want to delay any further. “I’ll also assign dragons for you two to use,” I added.
“Damn! I now envy you, dude!” The spearhead moved and patted his thick arm at Leo’s weak back. Leo coughed and was pushed forward a couple of steps, looking back at the spearhead in such a blaming way.
“Alright,” I said to conclude this, “go now and always keep me posted.”
I waved my arm and a group of one hundred big dragons appeared. Their sudden appearance and line up made everyone feel the same as the spearhead.
“Follow these two all the time, and listen to their orders. Keep them safe!”
“Roar!”
