"They are mine!"
Ishii's voice echoed from every direction. As he watched the ripe fruits being picked by others at the last moment, he couldn't swallow the resentment in his heart considering all that had happened since his contact with Aian San.
"They are mine now," Aian San answered indifferently.
"You have no business here anymore, although, if you'd like to stay and help, I'd welcome it."
Aian San slightly turned his body, his gaze fixed on a corner of the cave. His eyes shone with a greasy luster, seemingly able to penetrate the walls and see the figure hidden among the rocks.
"Don't do anything foolish. You know, your abilities aren't of much use in front of me. If I can find you, I can kill you," Aian San said with a fierce smile, half-threatening.
"I found them, and I've been tracking them all this way..."
Ishii's voice became hoarse as he was still trying to bargain for something.
"Hmm...indeed, that's the case."
