Chapitre 103: Riaku's secret

"Good luck? You're coming with me, Lucien."

Red turned towards Rei. 'Look at what he's making me, a little boy do.' His facial expressions beautifully communicated childish helplessness in the face of an overbearing older sibling.

"Syryn, neither of you should be going anywhere. I get that you want to help but it's too dangerous in there," Rei reasoned.

"Are you saying that because Riaku asked you to guard us?"

Syryn felt a vibration in the air that had him exchanging a glance with Red. Whatever was happening in the forest did not bode well for the avians.

"Yes. Listen to common sense, Syryn. You'll only get yourself killed out there if you rush in without knowledge of enemy positioning or numbers." It seemed Rei had forgotten how the alchemist had recklessly baited a giant inside the path. Common sense was well and good but Syryn's thought process did not flow normal.
