Chapter 298: Cleaned

Donny could tell that if he didn't get up onto his feet and start moving he would be asleep in a matter of minutes so he got up and started to stretch. "Keel, it's been seven hours since I set the barrier right?" Donny didn't actually have a real way to tell time at the moment and he knew Keel did so he wanted to know the exact amount of time that had passed. The chapters is up by N0vEI__bin

"Seven hours and twenty minutes. Why are you thinking about dropping the barrier?" Donny nodded while giving a few of the more suspicious people in their group a glance to see if their faces reacted in a way that he felt warranted his suspicion at the news the barrier might be coming down.

Not really getting anything Donny said. "I don't think we're actually safe enough to drop the barrier because if the fortress was saved we would have seen someone by now but I do think we need to gather information." He wasn't telling the whole truth as he said this.

His real plan was to make the Demon Worshipers attack by appearing weak which would hopefully include the ones hidden amongst them. Once he knew there weren't any more traitors he would be able to leave the barrier to someone else in the group and get some rest.

Of course this plan had a load of problems but he was smart enough to know you couldn't come away from something like this without losses so he would happily trade a few of them for the safety of the rest. It wasn't like he was telling a portion of them to go on a suicide mission or anything, all of them would be in equal danger so this plan was fair.

The only regrettable thing was he was lying to the people who were listening to his orders and he wasn't a big fan of that but it was for their own good. "Wake everyone up. I'll be dropping the barrier in a few minutes." With them all sitting on the ground for the last few hours a lot of the people had fallen asleep and Donny didn't like this fact with how tired he was but he understood they would be better off rested so he had let them get a few hours.

It had left the partners they were supposed to keep from moving free to do small things but that was why he had Keel were sitting on either side of the barrier. In the last seven hours he hadn't seen anything that could be considered traitorous so all he had to go off of was the bad vibes he had felt from a few of the people in the barrier over the past hours.

Once everyone was out of the room Donny made the shield formation he had used on the way here and walked out. The people in the first team knew where they were going so Donny kept an eye on the people right in front of him and hoped he would hear anything coming up behind him.

Usually the person in the back wouldn't be looking forward but surprisingly he was actually more afraid of his own group than what might or might not be behind them. He also had a very weak version of the shield right now so he was pretty sure he would be able to defend himself even if he didn't see the attack coming.

He didn't know for sure though since this was only one of the many formations that were held inside the shield and he didn't even really understand it with how complicated it was. All he was doing now was copying it out of the memory he had formed from the years of training from the shield so for all he knew this wasn't the formation that caused it to intercept attacks he didn't see coming.

He was pretty sure it was though it might not work right without all the other formations that he had to cut it off from to be able to weave it. There was really no way to know without being able to ask the person who had made it originally the God of Metal himself. "Keel have we run into anything yet?"

Keel wasn't too far from him so he didn't have to yell to ask this question. "No, it's been completely quiet up until now." Like everything else that had happened so far Donny had no idea why they hadn't been attacked but he decided it was a good thing. "Have you guys noticed how clean the hallways are?"

Donny didn't know who said it but after they had he thought back to when they had walked these hallways hours ago. There had been bloody footprints and a few bodies then and now the floor was spotless. He didn't get a bad feeling from this though so he didn't tell them to turn around and just let them all continue towards the big room.

He knew the bodies disappearing could be the Demon Worshipers turning them but he had never heard of them cleaning up blood before. It was actually usually the opposite with the places they gathered smelling like rotting bodies and so much blood you would think they used it to paint the walls. "We're here."

Donny had to guess who had yelled that out since he couldn't really see but knowing it came from the front of the group he asked Keel. "Can you handle this, I can't see anything."

"Alright." Donny felt a little weird right after saying this because he had kind of forgotten the fact he had stolen the command from Keel and what he had just done kind of felt like an order but he got over it pretty quickly. If this caused a problem between him and Keel, Donny would just fix it later.
