"Is that all? You're truly insane; we're going to die."
Hearing this, Ben forced a wry smile, but still drew his longsword and assumed a stance, aiming it at the other Dark Guards in the storeroom.
Liens didn't respond to Ben further, but instead said to the trembling counter attendant, "Lead the way. Do you want me to find someone else? You wouldn't want to know the consequences of that."
This time, the counter attendant didn't say much. He quickly grabbed a bunch of keys from under the counter and, trembling, walked to the large door leading into the storeroom.
Liens continued to hold his sword to his neck, watching him use a trembling hand to grasp the keys, unlock the door, and step inside.
Liens and Ben followed closely, walking in, then closing the door, temporarily cutting off those gazes from outside that seemed capable of killing people.
Inside the storeroom, the lighting was ample, thanks to the constantly lit magic stone lamps.
