Chapter 92 92: Isolation



Lancaster stood still, thinking about what Atlas just said. Even though he didn\'t agree with everything that was done, he realized that what Atlas said was true.

"What are we going to do about the bodies? We need to bury them and hide the evidence of what happened here." Lancaster ran after Atlas.

"That\'s where I\'m going," Atlas answered. "I\'ll bring a shovel from the carriage. You stay here and keep an eye on the body."

"Ah, while you\'re at it, can you also bring some clothes from the carriage? I came as soon as I heard a Werewolf roar coming from the forest, thinking you\'ll be in danger."

"I was about to bring that as well." Atlas smiled.

After taking a few more steps, he stopped and turned back. "Also Lancaster..."

"Yeah?"

"I\'m sorry."

"Sorry for what?" Lancaster didn\'t understand why Atlas was apologizing to him so solemnly.

"For killing those Werewolves. I didn\'t want to have to do it. Not only did I do it, but I also made you help me. I\'m sorry." Atlas explained. Lancaster didn\'t work for him. He was a friend.

Atlas understood how hard it was for someone to watch people from their own families die. As a Werewolf, these people were Lancaster\'s family, and he had to attack his own to help him. The least he could do for forcing Lancaster to make this tough choice was an apology.

"You don\'t have to apologize for that. I\'m sure you weren\'t the one who attacked them first. You did what you had to do to protect yourself. It\'s just an unfortunate incident that shouldn\'t have happened, but now that it did, we can\'t do anything about it. If I was in your place and was attacked by four Vampires, I might\'ve done the same. So don\'t blame yourself."

Even though Lancaster was initially upset at Atlas for killing the past woman, after knowing Atlas\' point of view, he understood why Atlas had to make that choice.

What he didn\'t know was that it took a really massive toll on Atlas\' soul. For using his strength, spells, and killing, he had lost even more of his soul protection

Only a few weeks had passed since he had awakened as a Progenitor, and he had already lost half of his soul protection. Only half of it left, and at the speed he was going, it was also going to burn out in a couple of weeks. He knew he didn\'t have long to live, but even he didn\'t know that he had such a short time.

Despite that, he wanted to do something to help those around him for as long as he existed. He didn\'t want to disappear once again, leaving nothing behind. He wanted to have people who would remember that he existed. He didn\'t want to have lived a life where no one knew that he ever existed. He wanted to make a change.

Moreover, he wanted to repay every favor that was done to help him. Lilith helped him in his journey the most. She wanted him to make sure that the Key fragment didn\'t fall into the hands of the Blood Council. He was prepared to do that. Yovana helped him in finding where his sister was. He also decided to help her meet her father, no matter what Castiel\'s personal equation was with Atlan.

And lastly, Lancaster helped him every step of the way. He still didn\'t know how to repay Lancaster\'s favor, but he had promised himself that whenever he received an opportunity, he was going to repay this favor, even if it took his everything.

Lancaster watched Atlas disappear into the forest, not having an inkling of the thoughts he had regarding his three companions.

Lancaster sat before the body on his knees after Atlas disappeared, closing the eyes of the young woman, which were still open. "I\'m sorry for what we had to do."

Atlas returned to the Carriage, where Yovana was still waiting for them.

"You\'re back. Did Lancaster meet you?" Yovana asked. "He went to see if you needed help."

"You didn\'t feel the need to see if I needed help?" Atlas asked as he brought a shovel and some clothes from the carriage.

"I\'d have to be an idiot to think a Progenitor would need my help in battles." Yovana smiled. "A Progenitor is an entire army, not something a bunch of Werewolves can take down alone, especially Lord Castiel."

"It would\'ve been insulting to you if I had thought that you\'ll be needing my help, Lord Castiel."

Atlas gazed at the young woman. She was right. Castiel wouldn\'t need help to take down a bunch of Wolves, but he wasn\'t Castiel technically. Unfortunately, he couldn\'t tell her."

Carrying the clothes and the shovel, he went back inside the forest.

"Here, wear something." Atlas handed over the clothes to Lancaster.

While Lancaster started wearing the clothes, Atlas started digging the ground. He dug a huge hole in the ground, which was big enough to hold four bodies easily.

He placed the first body in the hole before disappearing to bring the other three bodies back. One by one, he brought all the bodies back alone.

He and Lancaster also found the shred of their clothes and tossed them in the hole as well, along with the beast bodies that were hunted by the ladies, to make sure there was no evidence which was left behind about the four women ever being here.

Just to be sure, the two searched the entire parameter, up to five hundred meters range, to ensure they didn\'t leave anything behind. Atlas also removed all the blood marks from the ground, leaving no evidence that a battle took place anywhere.

After making sure that nothing was left, the two friends started covering the hole with the soil.

Along the way, Atlas apologized to the four wolves once again for what he had to do.

"Can I ask you a question if it\'s not a secret?" Lancaster walked beside Atlas.

"What?"

"Where did you send Lilith? Why isn\'t she here? Is she on a secret mission or something?"

Atlas smiled in response. "What you asked is certainly a secret but not because I don\'t want to tell you. It\'s because even I don\'t know where she went. She told me to meditate to calm my head. I was in meditation when I was attacked. Lilith wasn\'t there when I opened my eyes. She probably left when I was lost in meditation."

"So she left you all alone in the forest? She could\'ve at least told us to keep an eye on you."

Atlas had no response to it since he had the same question. If she had to leave, could she not tell others? Moreover, where did she go in the first place?
