I couldn't help being surprised by this sudden change, especially when I saw the little girl.
This little girl seed like she was too young to be in a place like this.
This was a little girl with black hair in twin tails with fair skin and a pretty face who looked no more than thirteen years old.
A little girl like this really had no place in a dangerous dungeon like this, but here she was.
After being taken aback, I imdiately raised my guard since no matter how I looked at this, it seed like a trap. For that cloaked figure to suddenly beco a little girl like this it seed like they were just trying to get to let my guard down.
But that little girl took advantage of my surprise to run forward and to hug by the waist.
With how short she was, I had misjudged and tried to push her back only for my hand to go over her.
She hugged onto my waist as she said in the voice that suited her, "Thank you, thank you for saving ."
I knitted my brows slightly as she did this, waiting for sothing to happen.
But in the end, nothing happened.
She just hugged my waist and put her head up against while she was crying and thanking .
It really made feel awkward seeing her like this with my guard still up, so I gave a sigh and said, "Alright, alright, that's enough. There's no need to keep crying like this."
But all that did was make her cry even louder.
She looked up at with tears in her eyes and said, "But it was scary!"
I gave a sigh before patting her on the head just like I had done for my little sister when she was younger.
After patting her a bit, this little girl slowly started to calm down.
Of course, it helped when I said, "If you keep making this much noise, you'll just attract more monsters." -chapter
As soon as I said that, she stopped making as much noise even if she was still crying.
Finally after taking so ti to calm down, I took a deep breath and looked at her before saying, "Can you tell why they were chasing you?"
The little girl just slowly shook her head and said, "I have no idea. I was going through the dungeon looking for monsters when all of a sudden, they all started chasing like this."
I knitted my brows slightly after hearing this.
After all, being chased like this was a good thing since it ant more monsters to kill.
So why did this little girl suddenly run away from them like this?
As if she was guessing what I was thinking, the little girl said, "I can't use my powers when I'm being chased like this. I need ti to use my abilities."
I looked at her for a bit before slowly giving a nod since it was the only thing that could make sense.
After all, I had seen how much power she had used back in the first trial.
This cloaked figure was the one that had been able to knock back that dummy, the second highest scorer after . With that kind of power, she should have been able to easily defeat these elite sahuagins.
Since all of my doubts had been answered, there was no reason for to stick around anymore.
If I learned her na, I would just get caught up further with her and that was the last thing that I wanted.
So there was no reason for to hang around any longer.
But as I was about to walk away, the little girl suddenly grabbed my sleeve and wouldn't let go. I tried to pull my arm away, but the little girl wouldn't let go as she firmly held onto my arm which made feel even more awkward.
After a mont of silence, she looked up at and said, "Can we work together?"
I revealed an ugly expression when I heard this, but that quickly disappeared as I said with a calm look, "I prefer working alone."
The little girl opened and closed her mouth a few tis before saying, "I can be helpful, my power is very useful!"
I just said in the sa calm voice, "I work better alone. It would be worse for if I went along with soone."
The little girl didn't know what to say after hearing this, so she gave up trying to use logic.
Instead, she just said in a sad voice, "Please don't leave alone, big brother."
Normally I would have ignored this, but I couldn't help being moved a bit when I saw her like this because…she reminded of my little sister.
Still, I steeled my heart in the end and was determined to reject her request.
Before I could though, there was another sound that ca from nearby.
When I turned to look in the direction of that sound, I found that it was another group of elite sahuagins running at us.
I didn't know why they were suddenly coming at us like this, but it seed like…they were targeting this little girl.
The mont that this little girl saw these sahuagins running at her, she imdiately went to hide behind .
I gave a sigh seeing this, but I didn't turn away from those sahuagins.
After all, there were another six of them and that was another twelve points for .
So with a thought, ti froze around us again.
Then in one swift move, I went over to the sahuagin and cut their throats just like before. After cutting them, I took the sa pose before releasing the Ti Stop.
When the Ti Stop was gone, the sahuagins fell to the ground bleeding from their throats.
I couldn't help looking at the little girl with a strange look.
After all, it almost seed like the sahuagins had been specifically chasing her…
