Kapitel 169: Suspicion

The previous night.

"Are you sure?" Nathan asked the captain.

"Yep! We'll be on the lookout for tonight. You and your friend should get some rest tonight."

Nathan looked unconvinced, considering this was originally their mission. However, the captain smiled at him. "To be honest, it's sad to have your friends dying on the battlefield. But it's more excruciating when thinking that they are unable to go back home.

"That's why I'm extremely grateful to you for allowing us to bring back their bodies. At least their families will have closure.

"It's shameless for me to say this, but please get some rest, esteemed summoners. I just wish for you to be in your peak condition so that you will have the strength to defeat those aliens."

Nathan was visibly moved. He couldn't really make an argument when he said it that way, so Nathan nodded. "Alright. I'll get some rest and beat some aliens tomorrow."

"Thank you." The captain's smile became bigger.
