He had already told about his plan to all the high-ranking members and the lower-ranking ones that had accompanied him to the clan wars.
The higher ranking ones had the task to explain it to the lower ones if they didn't understand anything, so more or less, everyone should have known about the immediate danger.
However, that wasn't true.
Arb elves, moles, dwarves, some goblins, and some swamp dwellers were left behind. They had no idea about this.
Shin thought about explaining to them about the danger and about the decision that he had taken.
Everyone was whispering and talking among themselves before Shin arrived. But the moment he appeared, they automatically shut their mouths. All their eyes were on him.
"It's good to see that you all have gathered here without asking any questions...", Shin started off by complimenting them a bit.
The beasts remained quiet as they just slowly bowed their heads to the compliment.
They knew that Shin had something important to announce and they didn't want to stop him midway when he spoke.
"So here's the thing."
"We are in grave danger.", Shin got straight to the point right after that.
"The higher ranking members and those who accompanied me know about this. As for those who stayed behind, it is time for you to know about our situation."
After the lower ranking ones had returned, they had obviously disclosed to their friends or family about the danger so most of the beings that were left behind had already been made aware of the problem.
However, there was no one who told the Arb elves, dwarves, and moles about this.
Regardless, Shin explained the entire situation to them.
"I have no idea what my relationship is with the wolf God Shin."
"Other than this name of mine, I don't think there is anything common between us."
"But regardless, the Supreme Celestials are after me and everyone who is a part of my clan and familia is in danger."
"I am not strong enough to fight against the Supreme celestials."
"In fact, I haven't even become as strong as a Celestial yet..."
"Therefore, I am not confident about protecting you all.", Shin said as he lowered his voice a bit.
What he said was a bit scary and could create chaos within the clan.
The clan members weren't a fool. The reason why they were present in the clan was that they believed in Shin. By following him, they would be benefitted.
But now, it was because of him that they were in grave danger. What is more valuable than one's life!?
Even if the lower-ranking members weren't all that intelligent, they weren't that big of fools to not realize that they would be much closer to death if they remained here.
However, no one spoke even now!
They remained quiet and kept listening to what else Shin had to say.
If they had learned anything by staying in the Lou Shin clan then it would be the fact that Shin was no normal wolf. He was not a fool and he wasn't a bad leader.
Therefore, instead of thinking about running away or quitting the clan, they expected Shin to bring a solution to them.
He wouldn't stand idle and wait for death, would he now?
Shin continued and explained about the heavenly wolf family, the solution that they all had been eager to hear about.
"So, the only way for us to survive is to seek shelter in the Heavenly Wolf Family.", he concluded.
Upon hearing this, all the members thought that they still had hope. They thought that they could get out of this situation with ease and there wouldn't be much to worry about. However, all these thoughts got destroyed the second Shin revealed what he wanted to do right now!
"I will go and search for the Heavenly wolf family while you all remain here.", he said.
? "..."
"Huh!?", a dark elf ended up saying this in surprise after hearing what Shin said.
Right away, all the Dark elves in the group turned towards him, staring at him because he made noise.
But all of them had the same reaction. They couldn't possibly believe their ears after hearing something like this!
'Leaving us behind? Isn't he just running away with his tail between his legs?', one of the shadow wolves thought.
A goblin Mage thought, 'Isn't he just abandoning us?'
But they didn't dare to say this out loud.
Even the higher-ranking members were utterly surprised by what they had heard.
The one who was surprised the most was Aella. She couldn't understand what Shin actually wanted to do.
Regardless, none of them said anything else and waited. They waited for Shin to present an explanation to them and as expected, he did.
"We cannot move in large groups."
"If we do, we will catch everyone's attention.", he said.
'OH! So he isn't abandoning us!', maximum members in the clan concluded this after hearing this, but these were only the lower ranking ones.
The intelligent higher ranking ones had a different thought entirely.
They had just recently experienced and witnessed Shin's inventory skills, the one that they were afraid of, and had named him Annihilator.
They knew that Shin could easily store everyone in the inventory and he would have nothing to worry about!
That way, he wouldn't have to leave anyone behind. So they were utterly confused at what he was saying.
'Why leave us behind when we can accompany him with that spatial magic?', Raka asked himself, wanting to pose this question to Shin.
But before he could, Deoras ended up raising his voice.
"Your Highness..."
Almost everyone present there turned their gazes towards him.
"Yes, Deoras?"
"Your Highness, if you go alone, you might end up being in much more danger."
"Pardon me but I cannot let that happen…"
"So…"
Every higher-ranking or intelligent being right there knew what Deoras was up to.
'No way.'
'He isn't going to-'
"I will like to accompany you as your guard."
"…"
