Chapter 861: Hunting for Shade (18)

In the week that followed their daring mission, life for Erik and his team slowed down considerably.

Everyone, except for June and Erik, visited a healer from the Band of Giants to tend to their wounds.

On the other side, Shade's side, the situation was anything but calm.

News of Gabriel's death spread like wildfire, and the subsequent attack on his villa didn't go unnoticed, either.

The aftermath stirred up tensions, leaving everyone on edge about the potential repercussions.

For a second, Erik thought that Shade had the means to find out who the onyx sculpture belonged to, making it so that their attack on the Villa had been for naught.

However, this concern was put to rest. After a careful check using his biological supercomputer and a detailed hand-eye examination, he concluded it was unlikely for Shade to trace the sculpture back to Gabriel, meaning they could still enter the meeting without problems. At least in theory.
