Chapter 282 Good Opportunity

Alan’s eyes flickered. He no longer looked as listless and downcast as he had just been.

He remembered that smiling face from long ago, m

Perhaps Yvonne’s final wish had been simple. She wanted him, Theodore, and the rest of their teammates to survive.

Now that so many people were dead, he knew one thing for certain.

This revenge had to be taken.

Steven stepped forward.

“We’ll get revenge. We won’t let either the God Eaters or Douglas get away with this. And we can’t keep letting them manipulate us. We have to fight back and get justice for ourselves.”

One by one, the others gathered around Alan.

Peter clenched his fists. “We’ll kill those bastards!”

Olivia helped Alan to his feet, her eyes filled with sadness.

After hearing Steven’s words, Alan seemed to calm down little by little.

But the killing intent inside him remained.

“This is my problem,” Alan said quietly. “I’ll handle it myself.”

Steven immediately shook his head. “We’re teammates. We’re a team. We’re victims too. Big Spoon, Uriah, and Tank all died because of this. How can we just stand by and do nothing?”

Edric stepped forward as well. “We’re getting revenge!”

“Yeah!”

“That’s right!”

“Captain Greenwood, we’re a team!”

Everyone moved closer.

“Their eyes were filled with determination. Without needing to discuss it, they all understood each other.

Watching the group, Ernie felt a strange emotion he couldn’t quite describe.

Alan nodded. At that point, there was nothing left to say.

He stood up and looked at Ernie. “Can we leave now?”

Ernie replied, “Investigators from Ironreach have arrived. They need you to cooperate with a short Investigation. After that, you’re free to go.”

Alan nodded. “Fine. Let’s get it over with. I want to go home.”

Ernie sighed helplessly. “When are you planning to return to Ironreach?”

Alan shook his head. “I’m not sure.”

Ernie could only shake his head as well. Alan had been away from home for years. Yet he still refused to go back.

“Just cooperate with the investigation first. After that, you’re free to leave. Oh, and hand over the Celestial Core.”

Olivia glanced at Alan.

Only after seeing him nod did she hand the Celestial Core to Ernie.

They had already taken everything valuable from it.

The artifact itself no longer mattered.

Then Ernie turned toward Steven.

“Steven, there are a few things I’d like to discuss with you privately.”

Alan stopped walking and gave Ernie a suspicious look.

Ernie glared at him. “What? Do you think I’m going to hurt him?”

Alan replied calmly, “You should know how we feel.”

Steven looked surprised.

“General Greenwood, that’s really not necessary.

Ernie shook his head. “It is. You’re destined to become one of Alan’s closest teammates in the future. This is something I should do.”

Steven laughed. “We already are.”

Ernie chuckled. “Then tell me. What do you want? I’ll do my best to make it happen.”

Steven thought for a moment. “Honestly, there’s not much I need. I just hope all the beast crystals we earned from this battle can be distributed to our team.”

Ernie nodded immediately. “That’s guaranteed. Anything else?”

Steven suddenly remembered something.

“I’d like an Aether Flame Seal. Can you get me one?”

Ernie froze.

His eyes narrowed slightly in disbelief.

“You already want an Aether Flame Seal?”

Steven smiled. “We already obtained some combat arts and other useful rewards from the Celestial Core. That’s enough for now.”

Then he grinned. “Besides, you’re being so generous. How could I pass up an opportunity this good?”

Ernie stared at Steven for a long moment and burst out laughing.
