Chapter 284 - 284: Taking Sides
Umbra slowly walked to the edge of the ship, looking down at Cain and the sailor who had been pinned down by Haunter.
The Senior Officer who had first attempted to stop Cain gave a respectful bow upon Umbra's arrival and stepped aside, though a deadly threat toward Cain gleamed in his eyes.
Umbra observed that, although Haunter had stopped attacking, Cain hadn't ordered Haunter to withdraw his move. A smile formed on his face.
He shook his head slightly and said, "That's enough."
Cain looked up at Umbra and, seeing the smile on his lips, immediately understood what had happened.
The man who had tried to stop him didn't belong to Umbra, nor was it Umbra who had sent the sailor to test Cain.
Although he didn't know the exact identity of this man, the fact that he could be in the same room as Umbra indicated he held a high rank.
Noticing Umbra's smile, Cain felt reassured and slowly approached the immobilized man.
The sailor, still held by Haunter, didn't dare to move, but the fury and hatred in his eyes were undeniable.
Cain gave a slight smile as he looked at him, then crouched down slowly and patted his face without saying a word.
Even on the ground, he remained arrogant!
