Pride

Arad stood in the forest beside Aella beneath a tree as the students surrounded Lucia and Aella's class teacher, a tall half-elf with a long mustache and a longbow on his back.

"A joined class… I can't believe they brought you here." Aella smiled as she looked at Arad.

"We're here to catch demon spiders. Did he say what you were going to do?"

"Said we'll help your class find and capture the demon spiders by looking for the spider lily, a black flower that the spiders love to eat."

^I'm worried… I can feel the spiders from here, every one of them, but something is off. They are too strong. I can beat them, and so is Aella and everyone else, but I don't feel that Mira would be safe here.^ He looked toward Lucia, "Teacher, you sure those spiders aren't too strong for us?"

Aella's teacher laughed. "Don't tell me you're scared of spiders, big guy."
