Chapter 224 Not 'Incorporated
After the sentinel left, Peel walked over to Pim and elbowed him hard, causing Pim to stagger and exclaim in annoyance, "Hey!"
"Lind doesn't seem right."
By directly using Lind's name, Peel implied that they were concerned about each other as "friends" and "brothers."
"The pressure from the Snake People Outpost is getting to him," Pim put it plainly, sharing the same feeling. "He's full of murderous intent; he feels betrayed, and he's putting a lot of pressure on himself."
"Or maybe he's been reading too much," Peel thought in a different direction, having noticed that Lind was always looking at books recently.
If the nine guards had reached any mutual understanding, it was their dislike of the old wizard Dome.
"A warrior should wield his blade, not spend all day reading; he'll be assimilated by knowledge," Peel said, scratching his head but then realized something was amiss.
It turned out he was wearing a helmet.
Hey, that was pointless.
