79) 12 Apostles

"Wait, are they the ones that the Shadow King is looking for?" -asked Stinger. She already knew the answer but she wanted to see what the guild master's stance would be. She already heard one of the girls call him uncle so she wondered about the nature of their relationship.

"They are indeed, they are a threat to him as was told by a seer." -said William calmly. He knew about Stinger's past and her deep hatred for the Kingdom. He knew she would not sell them off if they helped them get rid of the Shadow King. 

A smile blossomed on Stinger's face and they all saw it. She then removed her mask revealing the enticing beauty that laid below. The shadows also started to dissipate around her, allowing for the party to fully see the woman she was. 

"Well, then we shall treat our guests right." -she said in a mischievous tone. William knew what she meant but also knew they were running against time.
