Chapter 448 - A Critical Decision

Inside a mysterious place shrouded in secrecy, five individuals sat around a table, their voices raised in a heated debate.

The air was thick with tension as they discussed a proposal that had the potential to change the course of their lives.

"Bullshit, why would we give up all our treasures for that young man? He is asking for too much," thundered an elderly man with a muscular body, his name was Ren.

He had a deep mistrust of the news delivered by Fu.

Dan, a middle-aged man, chimed in with agreement, "Yeah, we should not agree to it because we cannot trust him." His skepticism mirrored Ren's.

Lowis, a man known for his wisdom, held a different view.

"No, I think we should trust Fu's instinct. We all know that because of Fu, we can still be alive today. His decision-making has saved us countless times."

A woman named Hilda, known for her sharp intuition, added her perspective.

"Yeah, he said that the young man is more terrifying than the overlord, and Fu had just maintained his composure in front of the young man to not look weak, but deep inside, he was trembling in fear."

She leaned forward, emphasizing the gravity of the situation.

Fu, the man who had brought this proposal to their attention, nodded solemnly.

He was unashamed to share the fear he had experienced when facing Dave.

"Are you not tired of living like this? Didn't we want to escape this godforsaken place?"

He implored his companions. "Now there's an opportunity in front of us, so we should not waste it."

The protectors exchanged glances, their expressions reflecting the weight of their decision.

Inside this mysterious place, where the future of humanity hung in the balance, trust and fear wrestled for control.

But united by their shared purpose, they knew that whatever choice they made would shape the destiny of their race.

Amidst the charged atmosphere of the mysterious chamber, Fu felt the weight of responsibility on his shoulders.

"Also, my instincts are telling me that the young man can be trusted, and he didn't seem afraid of the overlords," he asserted, his voice carrying a hint of conviction.

The room's occupants leaned in; their eyes fixed on Fu as he continued to share his perspective.

"I also noticed the immense blessing that surrounds him. He appeared to be leisurely enjoying the view, without a trace of fear in his demeanor."

Fu's words hung in the air, a stark contrast to the skepticism that had dominated the discussion.

"If I had attacked him the first time I saw him, I might have been dead or seriously injured. It was better not to provoke such a monster," he explained, offering insight into his thought process.

Ren, the muscular elderly man, remained steadfast in his opposition.

He retorted, "The treasures and blessings we've accumulated come from our hard work. I don't want them to fall into the hands of Dave."

The tension in the room continued to rise, threatening to reach its breaking point.

In this critical moment, Hilda, known for her sharp intuition, decided to take action. She believed it was time to bring this debate to a resolution and find a way forward.

They had previously agreed that in cases of disagreement among the five protectors, a vote would be taken, and the majority would determine the course of action.

It was a democratic process they had established to ensure fairness and unity.

Hilda's voice carried authority as she proposed, "Let's put this to a vote. If we are unable to reach a consensus, we should abide by the decision of the majority."

The others nodded in agreement, recognizing the wisdom in Hilda's suggestion.

The voting commenced with each protector casting their ballot with a sense of gravity and purpose.

When the votes were tallied, it became evident that the three of them were in favor of trusting Dave and cooperating with him.

Ren and Dan, who had been steadfast in their opposition, found themselves in the minority. The majority had spoken, and the decision was clear.

Fu, who had advocated for trust, spoke again, "Since a decision has been reached, we will await the arrival of the young man at the ceremony. We must act with prudence and respect, for if we act rashly, he may become our enemy."

The tension in the room, which had been palpable moments ago, began to ease as the protectors acknowledged the importance of unity.

Despite their differences, they were bound by a shared mission: to protect and guide humanity.

In this pivotal moment, they understood that cooperation was paramount to their race's survival.
