Wellis was the leader, but he said nothing and merely stood behind Fane quietly.
The two figures were incredibly quick. When they got closer, Fane could finally see what they actually looked like.
They had dark green robes on, and the one on the left was wearing a green mask while the one on the right was wearing a blue one. The two hid their faces, but it was obvious from the way they acted that they were not evil beasts. They were participants as well.
Once they realized that the two figures were humans, everyone breathed a sigh of relief except Fane and Wellis. Even though there were weaker and stronger evil beasts, the evil beasts they met earlier had all been strong.
"Who are you two?" Fane asked coldly.
The man in the green mask put up two fingers as he said to the crowd, "I'll give you all two choices! The first is to leave Wellis behind and go your separate ways, the second is for all of you to stay behind!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard that. It was as if they had just gotten out of the frying pan to leap right into the fire. They had thought that there would be no trouble since those two were humans. After all, killing humans would not earn any Evil Badges here, so there was less killing between warriors.
Wellis' lips trembled before he suddenly raised his voice and said, "You're Desmond's subordinates!"
He spoke with a firm tone, and there was a lot of hatred in his voice. It was obvious that those two did not have any good intentions for him.
The man in the green mask was taken aback. His eyes glared right at Wellis, "What makes you think that?"
