Bab 135: Just Playing Around

The people screamed as the gigantic monsters tried to break the barrier Alwin had made.

But thankfully, despite many hits and clawing from the monsters, not a single scratch, crack, or dent was made to the barrier.

[She's scared this time.] Ferdinand thought and Arabella flinched when she realized she was tightly hugging his arm.

She looked up and blushed in embarrassment when their eyes met. She said earlier that there was nothing to fear since he was around but here she was hugging his arm in fear.

Arabella let go of his arm and hid her hands behind her back.

[She's so adorable.] Ferdinand smiled slightly and patted her head.

"I will vanquish them all so they won't bother you anymore," Ferdinand said and Arabella fidgeted as he was about to leave her side. "Wait here for me. Rendell and Riley will guard you in the interim."

[I won't allow anything or anyone to hurt you. Over my dead my body.]

Arabella nodded, trying to look as calm as she could.
