The group finally all turned to leave.
Just as Ishii was the one about to leave, Varkesh suddenly called out.
"…Wait."
Everyone stopped to quickly turn around. Not a second went by before Bailey's head quickly peeked out from the doorway.
Seeing everyone abruptly turn towards him, Varkesh found himself not entirely certain why he had spoken.
He didn't believe that he would see any of them ever again. There was no reason to care about what happened to them after this.
But Ishii left a part of him that wanted to warn them.
If the guild eventually marched against Noah, then he wanted to tell them not to go.
More specifically, he just wanted Ishii not to go.
He wanted to tell him that whatever connection they believed they shared with the demon, they still didn't understand the monster that now lived within that forest.
And if they thought they understood him, then it was better not to take the risk. They could go after all of this was over.
