Tir Blanc's eyes twitched.
His usually hollow, shadowed eyes grew even darker.
"These fucking bastards."
Yong Taeha couldn't hold back and spat out a curse.
"What the hell... We worked our asses off..."
The one who cursed next was Lingling. This little girl had a fiery temper when angered.
Team Coin. Some no-name team was taking shots at their 'Team Lair'.
At the same time, they were comparing them to the current media-favored top team, 'Team White'.
The argument was that Team White, talented yet hardworking, was raiding harder than the overfed Team Lair.
"This is pissing me off, for real. They think we're just idiots because we're keeping quiet?"
Yong Taeha ground his teeth. The public knew Team Lair was a gathering of history's greatest geniuses. And because of that, they demanded even harsher raids from them.
Overdog. Those with much are easily cast as villains. They demand sacrifice proportional to what you have. That was Team Lair's situation.
"Everyone, don't bother refuting them. You know our position."
It was a familiar scenario for the young man born as the son of the eternal rank one.
Tir Blanc was the first to swallow his anger and calm the team.
"We prove it with results."
But even as he said it, the young man wasn't at ease.
Yong Taeha's ribs had torn through his flesh. He'd suffered second-degree burns all over, plus major and minor fractures everywhere. Mana sepsis set in, and as a complication, he endured high fevers for two days.
Lingling's eardrums were completely ruptured on both sides. Shockwaves had damaged her internals. She bled from below for three days and cried a lot, saying it hurt, whenever she was alone with Gaeul.
And what about himself? A shard from his broken sword had lodged in his eye. A little deeper, and he'd have died in that last raid.
All that effort, denied.
So Tir Blanc comforted the team only twice. He couldn't do it a third time.
At the same time, Gaeul—who had silently watched the situation without a word—frowned.
"......"
Gaeul was in a foul mood.
