“No, you don’t get it. We should have heeded Demigod Windsor’s advice and never have come out of hiding. He warned us if we stole the Silver Beach dungeon Freedom Fighters would be destroyed within two weeks. Even the Southern Royal family did not dare to be so brazen about the silver milk powder, yet we were. Dear friend, we flew too close to the sun,” Henricks shook his head thinking he should have known better, it was still not time for the Freedom Fighters to come out of hiding.
“How can you say that? What does demigod Windsor know? Silver milk powder is the best thing that could have happened to Freedom Fighters. With it we could have been able to achieve our cause, had I not been greedy and chosen the less risky way,” Ned strongly disagreed with Henricks.
He believed that without the silver milk powder, no matter how many years they would be in hiding they could never have been able to counter the central government in terms of strength or wealth. But now with the presence of Silver milk powder that has changed. If only he had been patient and chosen to go into hiding after stealing the silver milk powder gunning for a slow and steady growth instead of trying to establish a supply and distribution chain aiming for faster growth.
“How can you not see something so basic? Regardless of whether we had chosen to hide or expand, as long as we had the Silver Beach Gate dungeon in our possession the world would always be against us and find some or the other way to take it from us. Isn’t what happened with the southern royal family an example of this? No matter sneaky and cautious they were the central government went after them. The central government even went as far as to mobilize ‘the miracle’ to get them the Silver Beach gate dungeon. They say that nobody can defeat the ‘Right eye of the world’ inside the world but when she went against Wyatt she lost. We should have just listened to Demigod Windsor,” Henricks was puzzled how his dubious friend could not see something so basic.
“Let us say that I agree with you that we should not have stolen the Silver Beach Gate dungeon in the first place. But now what? As we have already stolen it. I am warning you, don’t you dare say we return it to the central government in exchange that they leave us alone.
I will never agree to that. If the silver beach dungeon falls into the hands of the central government then we can forget that a miracle drug like Silver Milk Powder ever existed.
They will bury it and make sure that it never sees the light of the day. At best, they will sell limited quantities to the highest-paying world leaders and the rest to train their soldiers. I would rather watch it be destroyed than see that happen,” Ned said frantically.
Ned was so desperate because he had promised to himself that Henricks would always be the final decision-maker, he would never go against Henricks’s orders at most he would debate it but never act against it in any way. So if Henricks decides that they give the Silver Beach Gate dungeon to the central government for leaving them alone, then he would do everything in his power to achieve that even though he felt that it was not the right thing to do.
This was the limit he had placed on himself. Knowing that with his personality he would always somehow end up hurting the people close to him. Therefore he gave his reins to Henricks, his best and most trusted friend. However, what he could not see was that he was doing it again.
“Who said anything about giving the only known source of the silver milk powder to the central government? Right now that is the only thing keeping us alive,” Henricks said, surprising Ned.
The only reason why the world leaders were not invading and attacking the compromised reverse dungeon blatantly was because they were worried that feeling cornered the Freedom Fighters would hold the only source of the silver milk hostage. Fearing the worst that could happen to the only source of the silver milk. The world leaders did not want to act until they were absolutely certain that they would be able to gain possession of the D-rank Silver Beach Gate dungeon.
This was the only reason why the Freedom Fighters were still in peace and not amidst a losing war. The world leaders cared more about the Silver Beach Gate dungeon than vanquishing the Freedom Fighters. Once they get their hands on the Silver Beach Gate dungeon, things will change very quickly for the Freedom Fighters. Henricks was very clear about this so he never once considered handing over the silver beach dungeon to the Central government. He planned to use it as a bargaining chip if and only when things went south and he could no longer salvage it.
“Then what do you want me to do?” Ned relaxed learning Henricks did not plan to exchange the silver beach dungeon for the world leaders to leave them alone. So he asked Henricks to point him to the way and he would not stop until he achieved it.
“We reach out to Wyatt. Let us hear what he has to say,” Henricks said as he himself was out of ideas when the whole world was out to get them, the Freedom Fighters. In the end, the Demigod Windsor was right. Unfortunately, he did not plan on joining the Freedom Fighters even if Henricks offered to step down as the leader and hand him the reins.
“Let me tell you what he has to say, he not only wants us to return the Silver Beach Gate dungeon to him but he also wants us to act as his thugs,” Ned revealed, having seen through Wyatt’s intentions way back in the basement of the plague palace.
“Honestly, as long as he promises to help us out of this mess and sponsor the Freedom Fighters cause, I don’t mind being his hired thug,” Henricks expressed willingness to work with Wyatt but he did not say anything about returning the Sliver Beach Gate dungeon to him.
