Chapter 241- Night Assault
Adalinda was sitting on top of a branch munching on some snacks that he had given her, Simon was seated on a branch next to her. What were they doing? Obviously, they were acting as sentries.
Simon's group was one of the many people that were assigned as night guards for tonight.
"Hehehe… cough..cough… hehehe" the little girl while almost choking on her snack, was laughing gleefully. Naturally, it attracted the attention of Simon who was caressing a small azure crystal that Irene had given him before their departure.
Putting the thing in his inventory, he locked his brows and asked curiously "What are you laughing at all alone?".
Her laughter that had a trace of excitement and anticipation, kept ringing out for a while.
"Hehe, I was right this trip is not going to be as boring as I initially thought. I get it now, you are the type of person who invites trouble wherever they go" her eyes stared at the demon who was currently masquerading as a human.
