章 104: Unknown Cave

"This cave is quite narrow." Leo said shortly after they entered the cave.

"It will get wider as we travel deeper." Nina said.

"I hope so. It's going to be difficult fighting in such a tight space, after all."

"Leo, I'm going to scout ahead." Lilith suddenly said to him.

"Alright." He nodded slightly.

The moment Lilith left his side and disappeared into the darkness ahead, Leo immediately felt a little less safe for some reason.

A few minutes later, they encountered their first monster, and it was a rat the size of an adult hippopotamus.

"That's a Cave Rat, an E-Rank monster." Nina said to him.

"I will handle these small—"

"I got it." Leo suddenly dashed forward before swinging his sword at the giant rat, slicing it in half.

"You can leave the small fries to me and save yourself some energy and effort for the harder monsters later." Nina said to him afterward.
