Chapter 45: Aura Clash

"Okay," Neo nodded. "Follow the plan."

"A plan?"

Suddenly, the crackled and Morrigan appeared next to them.

"You think your plan, whatever it might be, has a chance to work?"

Arthur reacted.

He fired a small lightning bolt.

Just as it was about to hit, Morrigan disappeared and reappeared at another place.

The other Zeus Clan members revealed themselves.

They surrounded Neo, Arthur, and Nathan.

'They were waiting for us,' Neo thought.

Arthur prepared his next attack.

Before he could do anything, Neo stopped him.

"Let me talk first."

He looked at Morrigan and spoke,

"We are not here to fight. Our friend has been kidnapped by some unscrupulous people. We are searching for him. Have you seen him anywhere?"

"Maybe, maybe not. Why should I tell you?"

"Fair enough."

Neo smiled when she answered back with his words.

Suddenly, Zoe, a member of Zeus Clan, stepped forward.
