บท 58: Chapter 58: Beware of the dog

"Everyone, stand down, he's not a monster, he's…." Neal strode towards the ledge, looking down towards Noah as he said with a smile. "An old friend of ours…"

Hearing that, everyone instantly became relaxed as if Neal's words were gospel. Noah observed how effortlessly Neal commanded their trust, it was just like before. The way the others hung on his every word, ready to obey his command without question; If Neal gave the word, he was sure everyone would give up their lives to attack him. 

'This would be a good time to play along,' Noah thought, but he couldn't afford to waste time. He was well aware that Neal would likely attempt to test him. Yet, would Neal dare to challenge him after he summoned Fenrir? As the thought crossed his mind, he made the decision to bring out Fenrir. Fear is a powerful tool to negotiate with. If Neal wants to play mind games then Noah would rather change the playing field to who had the bigger dog?
