The silver haired child was correct; after all, there could be a trap waiting. And if there was anyone in the group who knew about traps, it would be Veronika. āWe donāt really have much of an option. There doesnāt seem to be much else around, it could take days to find another settlement. How exactly do you think we all got here anyway? No, something tells me weāre going to be stuck here for some time.ā
Thankfully, the unease soon died and brandished weapons became introductions. It was good that everyone decided to keep things short and not go on about their life stories. Yes, itās always useful to have a mercenary on your side, but what if they knew that she was also a former bandit? Ignorance would be bliss in this situation. āAnd I am Veronika.ā
