Chapter 150 - At Least She Likes It...

Luina narrowed her eyes after hearing that. However, after Everything Roan showed so far, she decided to believe him again. As proud as she might be, she could at least tell the difference between the two of them.

Their group then moved somewhere near to the first small group and hid in the forest. After that, Roan looked up in the sky and could see that they still have a few hours of daylight. He turned and looked at Luina and her Lagan Sect group.

"Rean and I are going to take a look, you guys wait here."

"Wait! I'll go as well. I can give cover if you are found out."

Rean smiled at her before saying.

"Don't worry, no one there will ever be able to find us out."

Luina was taken aback for a second. But just as she was about to say something, the two dashed into the forest. She felt quite helpless. It wasn't this kind of role that she envisioned when she applied to the mission.

Oritis and Rolim looked at each other as well, not knowing what to do.

"Should we go there as well? If we continue like this, we will fall into a passive position."

Luina pondered a bit before shaking her head.

"Everything went as Roan said precisely. Besides, we do owe one to them since we would really have fallen into a predicament because of our lack of investigation. Let's see how things will go this night. If it turns out that his plans go wrong, then we will move on our own too."

Oritis and Rolim nodded, and they concealed themselves once more.

Back on the twins' side, Rean already leaped on Roan's back and used his Light Element and Spiritual Sense concealment skill. Roan was more than experienced enough to move around without making any noise or leaving any clues that he had been there.

However, they didn't go to the places where the bandit groups were guarding. Instead, he looked for the places where they would go to rest. He wanted to take a good look at all traps and positions of advantage that they could use.

It was almost night, and Luina's group was starting to get worried. Until now, Rean and Roan didn't give them any sign. But just as the sun was about to completely disappear, they heard Roan's voice coming from their sides.

"Alright, we can move now. Follow me and make sure to only step where I do."

Luina's group's eyes lit up as they nodded. It was finally time for action. They followed Roan deep into the forest until they stopped in a place where there wasn't anything. Luina looked at Roan, puzzled. However, the later only told her to get down and not show herself.

Around two hours later, their group heard the sound of laugher as a group passed by their position. For a second, Luina got nervous. Those were definitely the bandits, and they were passing close to them. Still, not a single one noticed their presence there. They soon mounted encampment and began to chat, eat, and drink.

It didn't take long until the majority feel asleep while just a few kept guard outside. From there on, Roan used Spiritual Sense to communicate with the group.

"Luina, Rean, and I will take the guards at south first. Oritis and Rolim will keep a look to make sure the others won't notice anything. Luina, there are three traps between you and your target. There is one close to the tree 20 meters in front of him, another just 12 meters on the right side of that one. Lastly, a pit trap which is well concealed just two meters on the target's left."

Luina was surprised to hear that last one. She could more or less notice the first two traps even in the dark environment. However, she looked attentively at where her target was staying, but she couldn't see anything wrong with the terrain 2 meters on his left side.

"Don't look down on those bandits. They had been in this business way too long. I told you before, being overproud might kill you earlier than expected."

Luina took a deep breath and nodded.

"We will move at my sign."

Through their Soul Connection, Roan had already told Rean about everything he needed to pay attention to.

"Now!"

The three of them moved like ghosts, quickly reaching their target without a noise. Roan was pretty satisfied with Luina's style. It seemed like she had practiced furtive skills.

In a matter of just three seconds, the three scouts of the south side were already dead. They made sure to hold their bodies so that they wouldn't make any noise when they feel.

Just like that, Roan passed more strings of orders, and they quickly cleaned up all the scouts. All the action didn't take more than three minutes and didn't alert anyone. What remained was only the drunk sleeping bandits who didn't know that their time had come.

The entire operation took only ten minutes, and the campsite was utterly wiped out. Neither Rean nor Luina's groups showed any remorse or pity. After what they heard from the first group's bandit leader, they only felt that they took too long to dispatch the party.

"Take whatever you can, those will be your spoils from this mission."

Luina, Oritis, Rolim, and Rean nodded, quickly grabbing whatever they felt to be worth bringing back. Without Luina's group noticing, Rean and Roan threw their spoils inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. If they asked later, the twins would simply say that they hid it to take them back later.

"Alright, let's go to the next camp. Although this place has few demon beasts, they will still come after they feel the scent of blood."

Everyone nodded as they swiftly left. Sure enough, demon beasts appeared a few hours later.

By then, Rean's group was already cleaning the third campsite. However, this time, their group alerted the bandits' group after killing around half of their numbers. Immediately, a battle started between them. Nevertheless, the bandits understood that they weren't a match for their opponents, and they tried to flee.

Too bad, though. Roan had left Oritis and Rolim at the right positions, just waiting for those possible escapees. Although the third attack didn't go as good as they thought, they still prevented any bandits from escaping.

*drip, drip*

However, Rean noticed that Luina was injured. To prevent one of the Foundation Establishment guys from escaping, she threw herself at the front. Because of their difference in cultivation, she didn't put him in her eyes. Unfortunately, she underestimated him and fell for a trick which almost cost her life.

Looking at Luina's injury, Orisits and Rolim's expressions changed.

"We won't be able to continue like this. Even with the healing pills, Luina will need a few hours to recover sufficiently."

Luina refused, though.

"There is no need; I can continue."

Suddenly...

*Jump! Pah!*

Roan's slapped the back of her head. But because he was smaller than her, he had to give a small jump to reach it first.

Obviously, Luina felt enraged by that. However...

"What do you want, drag us down?"

Luina was fuming!

"You!"

"You what? How do you expect to battle like this? You will only become a burden. Not only might you die, but we might also die as well because of you."

Luina gritted her teeth but gave up in the end. She knew that her injury was quite bad.

"Fine! I'll stay and heal myself. But you don't need to go wait for me. Take Oritis and Rolim and continue the mission."

Finally, Roan nodded his head.

"That's more like it. However, you are coming with us anyway."

Luina's group felt puzzled. Didn't you just say that she shouldn't continue?

Roan ignored their doubts and looked at Rean.

"What you waiting for? Go ahead, nurse Nightingale."

Rean's mouth twitched.

"Fuck you! Who is Nightingale? ... At least call me Dr. House."

Roan shrugged his shoulder.

"That would be me, but I can't heal people."

Rean looked at Roan and had to admit that he was right. Their personalities match quite well.

"I will stick with Dr. Wilson then."

Luina and the other two couldn't understand anything that they were talking about. But they didn't have time to ponder. That's because Rean already grabbed Luina's shoulder, much for her amazement. Just as she was about to try to shake him off, a burst of white light came from Rean's hand, which illuminated everything around them in this dark night.

Light Element quickly rushed into her body. A very warm feeling ran through her meridians as her injury began to heal so fast that they could see it with their naked eyes.

Suddenly...

*Ahw!*

Luina let out an involuntary moan, which startled her companions. Luina was also taken aback by that as her cheeks immediately turned as red as a tomato! Even she couldn't believe what she just did.

Rean just sighed as if he was already expecting this to happen.

"Well, at least she likes it..."

Even though Luina was extremely embarrassed by what happened, she could tell that her wound would be healed entirely in just a few minutes. Still, she had to control her urgers to not let out more moans, which was quite hard, to be honest. Rean's Light Element felt too damn good!

Finally, Rean finished his treatment.

Luina then quickly got up with an awkward expression. She also felt wronged, but couldn't muster the courage to blame Rean, who just healed her.

Roan couldn't care less, though.

"Are you finished? Then let's go."

Without waiting for their answer, he left straight away. Luina felt somewhat relieved that Roan didn't seem to care about her moan a few moments ago and quickly followed him as well. Rean and the others obviously did the same.
