The Slayers
Chapter 166 (Season 4)

Both eyes stared very intensely. It's not about love, it's a dispute. Via did not hesitate to point his sword at my neck. This is something I never thought of.

Surprisingly, I was even encouraged to challenge him. I want to keep fishing for him, see how it would be if his anger exploded. But, looking at the current condition, it was not good to make him angry. Via is the team leader, he is responsible for all of us. If he is angry, then there is a possibility for a rift to appear.

I touched and lowered the tip of the Via sword slowly. Via slightly held back his sword, however, I forced my strength slightly. Put him down. My smile no longer exuded a hostile aura. I began to set the expression, becoming a friendly and friendly expression.

"Joking, kidding, don't get angry!"

Via's face began to return to normal, no, more like confusion. I flicked my finger and the ice that froze Zoel broke into pieces. Zoel also fell with a body position that looks ridiculous. Of course I laughed out loud.

"Anj*ng you, Alan!" Zoel shouted with frustration and explosive anger. Unkempt, he swung his sword once more.

Ctangs!

The sword swing was easily fended off by Via. 'Via is reliable!' my thinking.

"Via, move!"

"Shut up! You keep going and I don't want to be the team leader anymore!" Threat Via.

Zoel gulped his saliva. Via's threat left him with no other choice but to stick his sword on the ground. Interesting, I rarely see Zoel give up like this.

Via finally breathed a sigh of relief. He seems to be under a lot of pressure as chairman. After all, his team members were all wayward, I was no exception.

"Alright, now, I'll explain the formation."

"First, the front formation will be occupied by me and Zoel. We have the highest defense in the team."

"His defense was put in front of everyone? Seriously?"

I naturally wondered about the formation from Via. Everyone's eyes immediately saw me.

"Err, yeah, what's up Alan?"

"Who's protecting the back?"

"....The danu?"

"He didn't do the recon?"

"Niji will do it."

'Niji...' I looked at Niji closely. His face that shows that he is nervous and not confident always makes me not sure if he can survive.

'[Oh, I'm going to be a lookout, that's my specialty other than stealing, but ..]' Even his mind made me more unsure. However, he is a Thief, in addition to stealing, he can be used as a scout because of his high AGI second only to Danu.

"...continue." I decided to hear Via's plan further.

"N-nah, behind me and Zoel, there is El who will be the most important attacker. Then Alan and Niji will be behind El. Lastly, Danu will be in the back row to protect Niji and Alan, just in case there is an attack from behind."

"Wait a minute...."

"Can you shut up anj*ng!? Bac*t you set-"

Before he let out even more curses, I glared at him inexorably, so that he could keep quiet. Not forgetting that I let out the slight killing aura that I had accumulated all along.

The killing aura that exists not only makes Zoel intimidated, others are also disturbed, except El who does not show any emotions or body reactions. Mysterious really.

For a few seconds no one spoke, I continued to think about the formation. I also got a good idea.

"Look, I have a suggestion, you want to hear no?"

Everyone nodded except for Zoel, I didn't pay much heed to his opinion either. As long as others agree, I can do what I want.

"So, my proposal is that Via is in the front row. Behind him is El, and then, for Danu and Niji, you will be snooping around in rotation. If the portal we enter is a forest area, then 70% percent of the reconnaissance tasks will be carried out by Danu. I'll be in the middle. Lastly Zoel, you'll be in the back, protecting me and Niji and Danu."

Zoel squinted his eyes, showing a sense of disagreement with my idea.

"You put me on the back? Not so!!!"

'I suspected....' This guy is really hard to manage. I was intimidating, I was still bullying.

"You need to be behind me to protect me. Don't worry, there's Danu or Niji who can help you fight monsters. After all, the backmost position is perfect for you."

Zoel immediately widened his eyes before walking towards me with heavy footsteps and grabbed my collar violently.

"It's really important you bangs*t! You're just an Alchemist who has no use but to make medicine for us! Without you, our team is solid, damn*n!"

"Solid?" I asked, with a feeling of annoyance and a mocking smile. "Only a chimpanzee with a thin tissue-like patience like you can work with us?"

"Bangs-" His hands were already tightly clenched and ready to be thrown. I am ready to face it too. However, again, the conflict between me and Zoel was stopped by Via suddenly holding Zoel's wrist.

Via said nothing. However, from her face, I could tell that she had trouble holding Zoel's hand. He was already very upset like that.

I roughly put away his hand that was holding my collar. I couldn't stand being here anymore, so I said the last words before I left.

"Remember Zoel, you have to protect me. If not, I hope you didn't cry and prostrate to be saved."

I turned and moved away from them. However, my steps stopped immediately after hearing Zoel's taunts.

"I won't kneel to you, instead, you'll be my vehicle, just like you used to be, HAHAHAHAHAH!!!"

A flashback immediately flipped in my head. The memory that is not wearing is twisted naturally and disappears a few seconds later.

I also smiled, not smiling happily, but smiling with an indescribable feeling.

"Let's see Zoel, who will crawl on the ground next, HAHAHAHAHA-"

I left that place, but not with my laughter still echoing in that place.
