Lennox slightly grinned casually standing up from the, he then placed down his drink on the table. He said, "All right, I can see that there is a awkward atmosphere now. I was just asking you to figure you out, but I still have to know so please tell me."
Lennox slowly approached his face at Riley, staring into her eyes with affection. Riley gently laughed placing her hand on Lennox face pushing it away from hers.
"Your breathe smells bad!" Riley said with a annoyed look.
Lennox casually laughed grabbing a hold of Riley wrist then pulling her close. "I really want to get to know you. Your eyes are filled with excitement. You can try to intimidate me but I'm just captured by your beauty," He slowly approached his face close up to hers. Living Riley to turn her face away. She was not romantically interested in Lennox at all.
"i have never meant any woman as beautiful as you before. If I would have met you long ago I would have married you then and there. I'll give you the world and its joys." Lennox rubbed Riley wrist with his hand.
Riley face started to get flustered looking down. She felt a strange feeling filling her stomach. Her cheeks were turning red and her heart was beating quite fast.
"You should let me go now," said Riley.
"Why should I, I enjoy holding you like this. I need to tell you something I've never told anyone else. You're the first woman I've ever approached like this. Most woman would chase after me due to my statues as chief but, you are different from the rest of them."
Riley eyes turned demonic blue,as a surge of aura came out from her. Lennox immediately let go of her wrist back stepping away from her. Riley stood up from the chair giving a cold glance at Lennox. The air surrounding them became thick as a ominous chill filled the room.
Lennox immediately recalled the first time he felt the ominous chill before, it was when Riley almost killed Ryan.
Seeing the danger of continuing to flirt with Riley was going to get him kill; From his first encounter of her and her fight with Ryan, she was not a weak person. If Ryan did not convince her to fight for their side she would have wiped out the cyclopes. Her power and skills were slightly showed in her fight with Ryan, when she gave Ryan problems. Even with one eye cyclops vision was far surpassing any other races alive.
Lennox opened his mouth stuttering to form words to speak out sound. He gaze fell down feeling the pressure to respond. Riley firmly looked at him waiting for him to speak. He stuttered back walking back towards the couch.
Riley walked up in front of him, saying "I need you to say something like you did. I told you to let me go, where's your confident now?"
"I should go now," Lennox murmured turning his back walking at the door.
The door was opened from the outside, as Ryan walked inside the room. He swept his eyes across the room sensing a ominous aura filling the room. He looked at both Riley and Lennox faces.
"What happened here?" Ryan asked.
"What, did those council find out about the plan?!" Ryan questioned looking at Riley. He was sure that something happened when he was gone.
Both Riley and Lennox paused from answering his question. Ryan looked at the two with a annoyed look, questioning was they were hiding from him. He wondered why the room got quiet when he stepped in, and Lennox was about to leave but he was not anymore. Many questions filled his mind.
Ryan abruptly stared at the two questioning them again. Both Riley and Lennox looked at each other dodging the question. Sensing something Ryan questioned the awkwardness he was sensing from the two of them. Riley turned her face filling a bot shy. Lennox also lowered his gaze avoiding his gaze.
Surprised by the scene Ryan questioned what could have happened to make Riley feel shy, and Lennox to lower his face. "You can both try to ignore me but I will keep on asking you until you answer me. So you better get ready," He stated with a firm tone. He was firmed in finding out what happened.
"Look at me Riley, tell me everything now," Ryan said looking at Riley side. Riley did not look at him focusing her gaze aside.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Riley replied. Ryan scoffed at her words mentioning that he sensed her aura before he entered the room. She did not just realised it for fun he could tell the intention through feeling it.
Breaking her silence she told everything to Ryan of what happened with Lennox. Ryan sighed with a refill expression. "Oh, I see. I thought you killed someone."
Riley snorted her face questioning why he thought she killed someone. Ryan widened his eyes shifting his gaze towards the side.
"So what happened outside?" Lennox asked at Ryan.
Ryan face turned serious recalling the present of someone his felt outside ago. He quickly informed the Riley and Lennox about the encounter. Lennox stared at him shocked. Riley looked up with a calm look.
Seeing her calm expression Ryan immediately questioned about the new foes.
Riley firmly looked at Ryan side. Thoughts started to form inside Ryan and Lennox minds wondering what she knew.
Lennox walked up to her grabbing her shoulder, with Ryan warning his rudeness towards Riley. Riley abruptly smiled looking at Lennox.
"Did you know this would happen, or am I wrong about thinking this?" Ryan asked.
Riley looked at Lennox hand that was touching her shoulder. She gave slight glare making Lennox let go of her shoulder. She coughed questioning their impatient.
"I'm asking you again, did you know this would happened?" asked Ryan.
"Yeah, I knew about the assassins coming here."
Lennox widened his eyes hearing the words assassin. That word was something he knew clear what it meant. "What do you mean assassins? Why would assassins come here, I there here to kill me?"
Riley slightly laughed denying his claims. "There are here to kill the strongest adventurer."
Ryan casaully smiled looking at Riley.
With a worried expression Lennox questioned why assassins could come after Ryan when his the chief.
"The problem is I don't know how many of them there are already here, but I'm sure they won't be too of a problem for us to held. Probably there amount of them is 50 at large," Riley casually sighed saying. She looked up towards the ceiling and began to laugh. The thought of a challenge brought a smile to her face.
"I know he is the strongest adventurer alive, but killing him wouldn't benefit them in anyway here. I'm the chief of the Island would killing me benefit the more. Why would the go after a adventurer?" Lennox questioned the logic behind the assassins plans of going after Ryan; Ryan might be the strongest adventurer alive but his importance could be as important as the chief of Polyphemus.
Riley laughed looking at Lennox. "You're right, you are the chief of Polyphemus but don't think you more important than the strongest person in the world. I'm sorry to say it but you're importance is much lesser compared to the strongest person in the world. You might have use to them but as a pawn compared to him there," She lifted up her index finger pointing it at Ryan. Lennox frowned his face realizing the harsh truth. He casually laughed backing up.
