Scared Old Man

The leader of the expedition confronted the young man as he walked towards their camp. 

"He's gone, you don't expect him to stay here after obtaining the lightning tree, do you?" He asked the young man with a calm voice. 

"Hmph! There's something of mine that he has," The young man snorted coldly. 

"What does that have to do with us?" The leader of the expedition asked, this time, releasing some of his aura. 

"Nothing, but can you tell me where he came from?" The young man changed his approach. 

"I don't even know him, he only accompanied us by chance. And besides, even if I did know him, I wouldn't tell you a thing about him," The leader of the expedition said. 

The young man looked at the leader, and then at the couple. Seeing their attitude, he knew he would be getting nothing from them. With nothing else to do, he walked back to his camp. 

Back at the cave.
