Rio was left speechless by that sudden plot twist and glanced at Snegnar before saying.
"Er… I guess, I know why you were crying now; it turns out your companions are not really that reliable…"
Rio glanced the other four S-rankers that hadn't tried to escape and spoke,
"Well, at least the rest of them are not such cowards…"
Hearing Rio's words, all four of them made a look that seemed to show they were in deep conflict.
The four of them make a smile as ugly as if they were about to cry.
"Uh… Honourable Mr. Rio… C-can I leave? actually, I am not even with these people; they just took my little daughter hostage and I was just forced to work with them…"
"No Mr. Rio, he's telling a lie… actually, I am the one whose mother is in the hospital and I need to go back to her, but these people took her hostage…"
The four of them suddenly started to make excuses all of a sudden, which caused Rio to feel confused.
