After greeting Herbert, he planned to reunite with his companions, but before leaving, he rembered sothing.
Fao hesitated for a mont and asked, "Sir Herbert, are you really going to venture alone?"
Herbert's strength was indeed quite good, but without the help of companions, it was indeed easy to fall into danger.
Jingle jingle jingle.
The crisp sound of wind chis rang behind him, changing Fao's expression. At this mont, he suddenly recalled that he seed to have forgotten sothing.
He hurriedly turned his head, discovering that the mysterious woman was staring at him with a cold expression.
Stare—
"Uh!"
Fao's expression tightened, and he quickly lowered his head awkwardly.
Darn it.
He completely forgot Herbert was accompanied by a Legendary Level Mage!
Right, how did he address her just now?
Fu...Fremay?
It seed that was the na.
It felt sowhat familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had heard it before.
Herbert noticed Fao pondering and smiled, walking to Fremay's side, and asked with a laugh, "Haha, do you still worry for my safety now?"
"No, not anymore! Then I shall take my leave! Wish you both all the best!"
Fao smiled awkwardly, saluted the two again, and then staggered towards his companions.
Because he hurried, Fao stumbled against a tree root in the swamp. His already injured leg throbbed with pain, causing him to uncontrollably fall forward.
Not good…
But before Fao could fall to the ground, two large hands grabbed his shoulders.
"Sir Fao! This is great!"
"Fao."
He lifted his head, seeing two companions, an elder and a youngster, supporting him.
"You really survived…uh, cough cough cough!"
The young Paladin, who always wanted to rush in and prove he was no longer a child, beca slightly emotional, his voice carried a sob, as he turned and coughed forcefully.
"To be, cough! Cough…to survive is good."
anwhile, the middle-aged Paladin seed much calr, but his trembling palm betrayed his true emotions.
His heart was far from calm as it appeared.
No Paladin could ignore the sacrifice of a companion.
Even though the middle-aged Paladin could accept, understand, and make the most correct decisions at the ti, it would never an he wouldn't feel heartache for it.
With their help, Fao propped himself up and nodded, "Yes! It's all thanks to Sir Herbert and that lady's help. How is your condition?"
"Our injuries have been treated, no major issues…Oh, by the way, what about those two Sirs?"
The middle-aged Paladin suddenly rembered sothing and looked anxiously behind Fao.
"Weren't they just there…hmm?"
Fao turned back intending to greet Herbert again, but he found they had already vanished.
He did not know if they had already entered the mist or if they hadn't appeared at all.
Fao's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Are you looking for them for sothing?"
"…"
The middle-aged Paladin shook his head after searching fruitlessly and said in a low voice, "Nothing major, just hope they could be a bit more vigilant."
"The adventurers just told us that the situation in the Misty Mountains might be special recently."
"The druid from their team said before he died that he could sense the entire forest was restless as if fearing sothing."
"I advised them to return to the Monastery with us, rather than continuing further."
The forest is restless?
Fao's brows furrowed tightly.
This situation represents many possibilities.
Is it dangerous demons erging from the depths of the Misty Mountains? Or is there a special relic about to appear? Or…
Fao pondered for a while and said in a deep voice:
"Leave a ssage hoping Sir Herbert can see it...and even if they haven't seen it, with their strength, they can certainly cope."
With a Legendary Mage around, there shouldn't be concerns about such minor issues.
Besides, Herbert and they aren't foolish; surely, they wouldn't actively venture into the depths.
No need to worry!
…
"Did you hear them say the forest is restless?"
"Yes, couldn't hear very clearly, but that's roughly what it ans." Fremay touched her ear, lightly stroking the Wind Chi Earrings.
Hanging on the ear didn't make them feel harsh or uncomfortable but instead increased her hearing range.
"The forest is uneasy?"
Herbert blinked, thinking this situation might have so unusual significance.
"Nenasha, can you think of anything?"
"Hard to say, maybe soone noticed the aura in you, or it's just a coincidence."
Nenasha seed quite unconcerned about this, not feeling worth worrying.
"Eh, don't dwell on it; once you encounter it, you will naturally know."
Herbert's mouth twitched, feeling a bit speechless.
"You do have a large heart indeed."
"What, didn't you know from day one?"
"True enough."
"Hmm hmm~"
The Harmonious God humd twice proudly and casually said, "Anyway, with here, with her here, what do you need to worry about?"
"Besides, I suggest you look up at that little fish; keep her waiting longer, she might really get mad~"
"What?"
Herbert returned to his senses, finding Fremay pouting, arms open toward him, constantly signaling him with her gaze to hurry and act.
"…Hmm?"
Herbert pondered for less than half a second, then realized what Fremay wanted him to do and spoke out:
