“What's with that reaction though? They don't speak to you, weird human?” Sam asked after a couple of exchanges of words later. At last, he seems to show some genuine interest in what this newcomer said. And in return, the boy tilted his head in slight confusion and asked back slowly as if he wasn't able to understand, “Spirits can speak?”To answer his question, Pam’s lively chirp was more than enough, “They can!” The youngest in their party sounded so proud to announce that he and his brothers could hear the spirits while this human couldn't.Luckily for Serein, the greenish-blue wyrm seemed to have forgotten the fact that she, a supposed human, can hear Aiston. Although as for now that ability seemed to be one-sided with the Ancient Spirit having all of the control over this temporary one-way connection, that's the case nonetheless.‘Or maybe Pam-min simply doesn’t know about that,’ Well, whatever was the answer, that adventurer was not in the mood to find out the truth behind tha

{Ah. Little girl, about this punk. There's something I need to warn yo—} While she was pondering over what could have been the lies, Aiston’s voice appeared in her head once more. ‘Yeah? What is it— hello?’ She’s trying and hoping for the Ancient Spirit to tell her what he’s talking about, but it seems that making his voice heard to Serein drains his power too much. There are even some faint static noises as if he’s trying to say something but could barely be heard. Still, it’s truly disgruntling how he leaves her hanging with too cryptic of a sentence. It was at that moment that Gil returned to them after catching up a bit with Arlia, which, once again, unexpectedly an acquaintance or even, a friend of the MC. ‘Perhaps saving Gil is what made this situation completely unavoidable, how ironic.’ —Not that she regrets doing it, despite the disturbing intrusion of thoughts she had about the knight earlier, Serein never truly regrets her decision up until now. In the meantime, while

There are no records of these sea creatures ever communicating with humans, so really, unlike Aidou, Serein had zero thoughts on even trying to talk with this herd to persuade them to spare her.“Hmm? You’re planning to fight them, little girl?” Cevahir asked casually as he glanced at how Serein retrieved her weapon, specifically the other blade which had been used by the half-blood dragon to knock out Aidou.“Well,” she responded to the question, humming while keeping an eye on the sea, “Just in case.” Her tone was firm but tinged with a hint of apprehension. As she spoke, her mind raced through potential scenarios, assessing her options and preparing herself mentally for what may come. She knew that facing a herd of sea monsters was no small feat, and she was bracing herself for the challenge ahead.Neither of the three dragons found any falsehood in her statement. After all, if there was a more peaceful way, she would opt not to fight at all. She had no desire to throw her life awa

After Cevahir's chilling revelation, the group realized that preparing for battle was imperative. However, with the conflict between the sea monsters and pirates raging on, it seemed wiser to remain low and avoid unnecessary risks. No one was eager to throw their life away in the midst of the chaos."They are angry," Cevahir's assertion echoed in their minds like a solemn bell tolling, underscoring the gravity of the situation with each resonating chime. This wasn't mere random aggression; it was a meticulously planned onslaught, orchestrated with precision and intent that sent shivers down their spines.Yet, Min Suhyun couldn't shake off the feeling of being ensnared in her own narrative web. If only she had paid closer attention to the details beforehand, perhaps then she could have avoided this predicament or known a way to address it before it reached this critical point. But even if she had done all of that, the problem wouldn't have been resolved.Unlike the main characters who

As the glow intensified, it enveloped them in a warm embrace, suffusing their bodies with a tingling sensation of rejuvenation. The light seemed to seep into every pore, filling them with a sense of buoyancy and vitality.

The glow shimmered and pulsed, creating an aura of serenity and empowerment around them. It was a moment of transcendence, as if they were bathed in the light of hope itself, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.As one of the three who received the boost, Serein felt a surge of energy coursing through her veins, enhancing her agility and speed as she seamlessly transitioned from defense to offense. With swift and precise movements, she launched a counterattack against the soldier before her. T
