Crossing the bridge.
[Third person POV],
As Ace's teammates became more vigilant and slowly began to circulate mana in their bodies in case a fight broke out, Ace calmly observed the people who were making their way toward him and his teammates.
Though his teammates' reactions were a little strong, they all thought that it was better this way than being sorry later for not acting sooner.
There are ten people. Six men and four women were divided into two groups of five people, each with three men and two women.
However, based on the close distance between them, they appeared to be together or perhaps as a temporary team.
Ace spoke as he looked at the two groups that had both stopped exactly when the distance between them was 10 meters.
"What do you want?" Ace inquired as he observed the two groups.
"We just want to talk", A middle-aged man who appeared to be the leader of one of the groups walked out and responded to Ace.
