Chapter 11
Luna wound down the window and shouted at the minivans, “What is wrong with you people…”

Before she could finish, the two minivans’ doors opened, and eight masked men came out.

Athena’s first response was to wind up the window. She then said to Luna, “Ms. Crestfall, stay in the car. Don’t come out.”

Athena got out of the car and confronted the masked men.

The leading masked man wielded a dagger, waving it in front of Athena.

“Lady, our target is the girl in the car. If you don’t want to get hurt, leave.”

“You and your little ragtag group?” Athena scanned them and curled her lips into a scornful grin.

“Hmph! Don’t blame us!” The man thrust his dagger forward, aiming it at Athena’s weak point.

Luna screamed out of shock at the scene. In the face of danger, she lost her usual calm and her pitch for a slightly higher one.

It was eight versus one, and Athena was the underdog.

Luna suddenly realized that Andrius was in the car. She cried, “Andrius, go down and help!”

Andrius glanced at her before he got out of the car. He stood by the car and showed no intention of assisting Athena, which fueled Luna’s anxiety and nervousness.

She urged him, “Andrius! Go help!”

Andrius remained still despite her urging. As the Wolf King that dominated the battlefield, he was certain that there was a sniper in the area. The sniper hid so well that even Athena failed to spot him.
