Chapter 269: Helain

Looking forward, Lake stopped and asked. "Do you want to take a break?" They had been running for about an hour but at their speed they hadn't even passed the gate yet. He had just accidentally looked down and saw the face of the lady who he was carrying and had seen she looked unhappy.

"For a few minutes but we don't have time to waste on a real break."

"You want some food?" Lake wished he hadn't said this because all he had was food from the Alchemist guild and he didn't want to share. It had been time for him to take a few bites of bread and it had come out before he had even thought about it though so he didn't plan to say no if she agreed. "What do you have?"

Lake had already pulled the food out so he just opened it and said. "Meat and bread." Lake made it sound really basic so she would turn him down because the second he had to give her any almost half of what he had would be gone. "Alright I'll take a strip of the meat."

Taking one of the slices from the pile he had, Lake thanked her in his mind for only wanting a single piece but made sure to put it away before he handed it to her. Keeping his eye on her face as she took her first bite since this was really the only good part about giving her any of his food, Lake saw the look on her face instantly change to fear after her first bite and dived to catch the meat as it fell out of her hand.

"You poisoned me!" Lake had never expected this reaction but he understood it and said. "No, this is food from the Alchemist guild." Holding the meat back out towards her it took her a while but eventually she reached out and took it from him. "Well I might as well eat the rest. I'm already dead if it is poison."

Lake was pretty sure she was going to have another funny reaction with her second bite so he kept his eyes on her to see what it would be. Seeing her just widen her eyes slightly, Lake finished the last bite of his bread and asked. "What's your name?" Lake had always been bad at asking this question to people so he figured he might as well do it while he was thinking of it."Helain."

...

"Alright head back." Hearing Rigbis give an order for the people outside to come back Donny Looked at Keel who gave him a small nod. Seeing the nod Donny got ready to head back to the rest of their team since it was about to be their turn to go out. All they were waiting for was Rigbis to tell them to go.

Once the team was about to walk through the gate Rigbis turned to them and said. "We're going to open the gate once so you need to leave at the same time as the other team is coming in. If anyone is watching waiting for the perfect time to attack it should be when both groups are visible so be ready to receive orders and defend yourselves."

Keel nodded before turning to Donny and saying. "Let's get down there." Donny did what he was told and matched the speed Keel was moving towards the rest of their team. On the way he asked. "What do you want me to do?" When Keel was around, Donny really wouldn't have any authority so he wanted to know if he would just be acting like a normal team member while raiding buildings.

"I'll have you lead a team when we're told to split up." Donny could have guessed this but he was more asking what he was supposed to do while they were together but he wasn't going to ask the same question again. He would just wait till Keel started to give orders to decide if he should just do what the other people were or stand next to Keel.

Seeing their team standing in front of a gate, Donny followed Keel to the front and waited for the gate to open. "Here, it's a backup communicator in case something happens to me where you can't get this one." Taking the communicator from Keel Donny almost dropped it because a voice came from it. "Get ready."

Hearing Rigbis' voice Donny looked at Keel who was looking at the one in his hand confused. "Oops I gave you the wrong one." Switching the communicators, Donny watched as Keel answered Rigbis and put his communicator in a place he wouldn't lose it during a fight. "The gate is opening."

Seeing the gate start to open Donny looked back to see how the faces of their teammates looked. He was thankful to find that everyone looked ready and that there weren't any scared faces. He guessed that was the benefit of only taking people who volunteered out to fight. If they had forced people to go outside they would constantly be dealing with people who didn't want to be out there.

With his team in good shape Donny looked at the faces of the people returning who actually looked even better than their guys. He guessed the return after a successful mission was really making them happy. He got it; that was probably how he would feel if they returned with minimal casualties as well.
