Northern turned to the rest with a bright, accommodating smile, trying not to seem so scary with the gruesome onyx sword in his hand.
"Hey guys, I would appreciate it if you all stopped staring right now?"
All of them blinked and tried to look away from Northern.
The moment Koll entered the battlefield, they all thought it was going to be the end for them.
Even Zephyr felt like this was the end of the road for him. He was already beginning to consider a way to betray them to save himself.
Not that he owed them any loyalty to begin with.
Northern then raised his eyes to the sky and stared for a couple of seconds before lowering them, worry crossing his face.
Annette tiredly dragged herself towards him and glanced up.
"What is that thing?"
He looked at her.
"What? You seem to know that guy just now, and I presume you know what this is."
Northern lingered for a few moments, then sighed.
