"What is it?" Aldred asked as he turned around and he was shocked.
"It's them again." Mareona brandished her sword.
Stella Sophia raised her staff. Mira tucked Krista away and pulled out a jade that could cast a defensive barrier.
Bartrem frowned. "They just never give up, huh?"
"Aldred, do you know them?" Wena asked.
Aldred bitterly smiled. "Unfortunately, yeah."
"They looked a little weird to be your friends."
"They are not friends," Aldred said as he stared at them. "We meet again, Thinker."
"Hand over the ring, Aldred." Thinker raised his palm.
Aldred laughed. "You are more human the more I meet you. The first time we met you would be like all robot and stiff. now, it looked like someone glued metals on a human body."
"My master is losing his patience. If you don't give me the ring, the consequences will be too vast for you to handle."
"Who is your master?" Aldred asked.
"You do not need to know."
"I guess we have no deal."
