Leave Me Alone, Heroines!-179 Chapter 179

Jack was totally speechless. He thought Lenny was calm and didn't really care about the death of one of their members. However, deep inside, he was the most affected out of all of them.

He knew that man for a long time, even before he started Nightingale. They were akin to best friends and eternal allies. So, seeing him get killed so brutally like that made his heartbreak to pieces.

He had lost someone he considered one of his closest people and he has to live with the guilt that he could've stopped that.

No one could understand his pain and suffering seeing this. So, Jack shook his head and sighed inwardly before looking back.

He felt sad to see Lenny that broken from seeing such a scene so he didn't say anything.

However, he still wanted to make sure of something. He looked at everyone and said,

"We must search the whole room. Find any traces of the culprit no matter how insignificant it was. We will definitely get them and kill them. They started a war and we will never shut up about it." Jack shouted with a grim look.

He was extremely angry and wanted to take revenge as soon as possible. Nightingale was never a group of wimpy people who shut up about something like this.

Everyone nodded except for Acht who kept looking at the room and scanning every nook and cranny of it.

He was in deep thought for one single reason…he knew who did this.

'Leislet and Scarlett were here. Fuck! This is bad! Are they really the ones after my head after all?' He thought to himself seriously.

As much as he hates to admit it, the possibility that they were the ones that spread the news about his supposed betrayal was quite high if not certain.

He was still not certain, but that idea never escaped his head and he was growing to believe it with each passing day.

Now, seeing the way they dealt with the bartender, it was way too brutal for it to be just a mere attempt to get him back.

'I thought they liked me. But, maybe what I did changed that. It's expected though.' He thought.

Then with steady steps, he walked inside along with everyone. Even though he was now not in a good relationship with them, he wouldn't allow Nightingale to know that Leiselt and Scarlett were the culprits.

"There is no soul force trace left," Lein said.

The group looked around and examined every place, especially the places around the corpse.

However, not much was found. No traces, no blood left from the culprits, and not even foot traces.

This was so far a perfect crime. Many would think stuff like that couldn't exist. But, in this world, perfect crimes were far too common to be even surprising.

,m People could change a whole scene to whatever they wanted it to be and they would get away with it if they knew what they did.

So, with clear frustration, Jack hit the wall.

"Dammit! They are not your run-of-the-mill elite hunters. I can see that they are at least S-Ranked." He said with clenched teeth.

"What can we do now?"

"You should find me another room. That's what you should do." Acht said as he put his hands in his pockets.

"You fucking bastard. This is not the time for your stupid requests." Weltz shouted as he tried to walk to Acht.

But, Torn stopped him and said.

"He is right. The room was destroyed beyond repair. As for the corpse, we should just bury it and find another way to get these fuckers."

"Torn! Are you really gonna ignore the fact that all of this happened because of him?! Why are you all so adamant about keeping him here? We lost one of our team members because of this fucker!! It's a fucking joke for him to be still here after all of this!"

"Calm down. Weltz." Jack said.

"How could I calm down after this? I am done with this shit. You guys are messed up. Is he really worth all of this? Is he really worth exchanging for one of our own to die like a slaughtered pig?!"

"I said to calm the fuck down!" Jack shouted as he punched Weltz in the face violently.

The hit sent him flying like a ragdoll and hit another wall, breaking it easily. The wall was sturdy but because of the previous fight, it was in very bad shape so a small hit was more than enough for it to crumble down.

"Blame him all the fuck you want! But, think about it for a second. He is as wanted of a criminal as us. Either way, all of us are wanted criminals. We are targeted by the hunter association after the Mystic Soul Convention! Even if he wasn't here, they would've searched for us and would've possibly found this place too. I hate this. I also am feeling as frustrated as you are. But, we are in this together. Including Acht, understand?!" Jack shouted.

Everyone stood silent watching this scene. Even Weltz was shocked.

He never heard Jack shout this much. He was always a funny and bright person outside of missions.

So, seeing him shout and be violent like that was new to all of them. That speaks volumes about how much he was angry about this situation they were in.

But, even with that, Weltz merely touched his cheek and then spat out a small amount of blood along with a broken tooth.

He then clicked his tongue and walked out of the room with angry steps.

"...Sigh. This is a huge mess." Jack muttered as he touched his forehead.

It was a disaster on all levels. A teammate died and a fight ensued between Jack and Weltz. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

Acht didn't really care about the nonsense Weltz spouted or the fact that he was protected by Jack.

"I will stay in the hotel nearby. Call me if anything happens." He said as he walked out too. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
