บท 542: Elizabeth's Concerns

-----

Once we were done having lunch in the cafeteria, we quickly made our way back home. Erika's mother had classes today as well, so she couldn't accompany us back home as usual. In the way, we had our time to talk and discuss our strategies.

Eric and Chris kept talking about the dungeon's dangers, while Erdrich pointed out stuff he didn't understand from the dungeon guide. Evelyn helped him while Alberta and Elfriedden joined the conversation from time to time. Erika was constantly talking about beating monsters, while Elizabeth seemed… oddly silent.

As I found her walking by my side, I gave her a glance. She quickly noticed me, glancing me back with a smile. She seemed slightly nervous, despite how willing she looked to fight inside the dungeon. I wondered if there was something troubling her. Perhaps she disliked closed spaces?

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

"Ah… I guess nothing can escape you." She sighed. "I've been thinking a lot about what happened in the first day."
