This Won't Do (3)

"Alone? Are you out of your mind?" Renee expressed her disapproval, "I know you're stronger than all of us, but you shouldn't-"

"It wasn't a suggestion. Also, I'm only going to scout the place. I'm not that big of a fool to fight all those creatures head-on." Ashton replied, "If anyone of you has better recon capabilities then step forward. I'll let you go without any problems."

Obviously, none of them stepped up. Ashton already knew he had the highest stealth stat amongst the ones present here with the exception of Seven. Ashton's level was still not enough to view his stats. But the fact that he didn't step up, meant either one of two things. 

One, he really didn't think he had more stealth points than Ashton. Or second, he knew Ashton had something in his mind and therefore did not object. Either way, it was good for Ashton.
