<h4>Chapter 282 Giving Terror</h4>
Damian passed by the night house to speak with thedies from the other night to warn them about future problems. He said that they might need to run, so it was best to stockpile some money just in case. That was all he could do to help them.
He returned to the cabin to meet up with Elena, who did not try to flee. She knew very well it would be impossible to run away from Damian.
"So where is your friend?" Elena asked.
Elena knew Morgana woulde with them because Damian had shared it to her.
"We''ve got some problems, and she won''te with us, but that does not change the fact you will lead us to where your friend is, right?" Damian said, staring deeply into her soul.
Elena saw Damian as a mysterious figure who had unknown powers, and for some reason, she felt like he had her life in his hands. Maybe it was her head ying tricks on her, but that was how she felt when standing near him.
"Come, my friends are waiting for me," Elena said after she was done packing up her things.
The attire she was using was much different than the one she used when meeting with her friends in the alley. She still had a cloak, as it provided protection against attacks and the weather, but she was not wearing a hood anymore.
Her friends — the same that she met the other night — were waiting for her by the city''s entrance. They had a carriage ready for departure.
When they saw Elena with someone else, all of them exchanged nces, and were ready to attack Damian right there. They had never seen Elena with him, so it must be an enemy.
"Who ''s that?" one of them asked the moment Elena got close enough.
She tried to calm them down, afraid that a fight would happen, and her friends suffering from it.
"Let''s get inside the carriage and I can exin, shall we?" said Elena.
The other three saw no reason to say no, and they all went inside the carriage. The person driving the carriage had to be one of them, but there was a small window which allowed the driver to listen to what was happening inside.
"So this man followed you home and wants to meet with the rest of our organization? Why do we have to prove anything to him? We know the other floors of the dungeon are doomed, and if he does not believe in us, then fuck him!" a ck-haired man yelled, sending a murderous gaze toward Damian.
Elena''s three friends consisted of twodies, and a man. The man was the brother of one of thedies that were part of the organization, and Damian came to the understanding that it was an organization made entirely of women, and the only man was that guy.
She tried to calm him, "We don''t need to fight. He did not hurt me, and is only taking a ride with us. Also, you know how dangerous the road is, so anyone who is willing toe with us is wee. It will be yet another person to fight against the beasts and the bandits."
The other twodies had yet to say a word about it. One was driving the carriage so she could not speak even if she wanted to — they were trying to keep it all a secret so yelling from the outside of the carriage was not a good idea.
"And why do you think he can help us? We are more than enough toplete this journey!" the man said.
He disliked Damian for some reason. Damian did not do a single thing to that man, yet he was angry and wanted to attack Damian right there. It was only till his sister — who was right beside him – intervened that he stopped.
"Calm down, Kai. I don''t see him as a bad person, and with everything that is happening right now, we need all the help we can get. Remember, this concerns everyone who is residing in this dungeon floor."
Kai''s sister was much different than him. She had an angelic aura that spread the calmness to everyone present. She also had a blueish hair, way different whenpared to her brother.
And surprisingly, her brother listened to what she said and calmed down.
"Alright. I trust in you, my sister," he said, and then he looked at Damian and said, ''But if you try something funny, especially against my sister, I will attack you."
The man was not weak. Damian guessed he had a simr power to Elena, perhaps a little weaker, but whenpared to him he did not stand a chance.
"Of course, I won''t try anything, don''t worry," Damian said.
When the man heard that, he felt proud that his threatening words were working, but Damian was not the type of person to let people talk to him like that.
"But if you try anything against me, I won''t hesitate in killing you, all of your friends, and your sister too," Damian said, his cold eyes staring at the man, "I can also get some information and go after your family so that all of your bloodline is erased from this world. How does that sound? Do we have an agreement?"
The man startedughing, thinking that what Damian said was absurd. Damian then stared at Elena and said, "Hand me your rapier, please? I want to teach him a lesson."
Elena shook his head, "No way I will support this kind of violence, and you should not say those things to him. We are in this together."
Damian activated his mind powers, and Elena hand started to move on its own.
"I-I am not doing this, he is doing this!" Elena said, trying to exin to her friends.
She handed over her rapier to Damian, and when the man realized a fight was about to happen, he started to move, but he could not. His sister and thedy driving the carriage tried to move too, but none of them could.
Damian slowly walked toward the man with the rapier in his hands, and cut the right cheek of that man, "I did not give you permission tough. Elena is the only one who got my respect till now, so you should listen to her and stop looking for fights you cannot win. This is the first andst warning."
Then, Damian returned to his seat and gave the rapier back to Elena. He stopped using his power, so everyone could move again. They were all sweating cold, and the feeling of being powerless in front of Damian reached their soul and caused them unimaginable terror.
