" Hey, what are you doing? Let go of my hand now! That hurts! I said it hurts so let go of my hand. You're holding it too tight."
Behind me, a six year old girl screamed for me to let go of her hand.
" Hey! Can't you hear me? I said let go!!!"
But ignore that for now, actually… what am I doing?
What did I do to be in a situation like this?
" *Sigh*.... Exactly why did I become like this...?"
" I should be the one saying that!!! Why did you suddenly come and grab my hand!!!!"
I looked back, saw a girl with a beautiful dress, shoulder-length pink hair, and beautiful Amnesty eyes.
Just by looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she was beautiful. Especially now that she is still a child, still in her infancy.
But ignore her appearance, she is too eye-catching.
Sigh… why do I have to do something like this? I started to flashback about how this situation could happen….
A while ago, when I saw this girl. I intend to ignore it since it's none of my business.
As I pretended not to see this girl, I remembered how I was when I entered this forest….
Only the word 'dead' came to mind. How come? Since I came here, how many times have I almost died?
Then seeing that girl… if she went through the same thing as me… that would be the worst thing that could happen.
I remember how my mother said… 'you have to be a good person, at least a woman can rely on.'
*Sigh….*
I can only sigh, I have to do it like my mother said.
With that, I turned around and walked towards the girl. Without thinking, I immediately grabbed her hand and pulled it.
At first she looked confused and now she looked angry.
Hey? Shouldn't you be thanking me? I'm here to help you you know.
After walking quite a distance, we are now at the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.
I let go of my hand and turned to her.
"Listen, this forest is not a place for a pretty girl like you. It's too dangerous here."
"Hey~ and here I thought you were going to kidnap me or something."
She could still joke around in a situation like this? Is there something wrong with this girl's head?
"I'm not interested in little girls, there's no point in kidnapping you."
"Eh? You don't know who I am?"
For some reason, now the girl was laughing slyly. What's wrong with this girl?
"Now go, this isn't a playground a kid like you should be visiting."
Let's ignore that sly smile for now. Now the most important thing is to get this girl out of this forest.
"Eh~ you said no place for kids, but we're also kids ourselves. Also, aren't we the same age?"
I already guessed…. There's something strange about this girl. Any person would definitely be scared when they entered the Star Dou Forest.
But this girl was too relaxed, she could even laugh and joke.
"I am different, I have my own power to protect myself."
"Power? A six year old? Pfft-ahahahaha, what power can you have?"
This girl…. Her casual demeanor was starting to irritate me…. You see, I will silence your sweet mouth...
Opening my hand, a paper Spirit appeared and behind me floated three Spirit Rings.
Two purple and one black, you won't be able to find the composition of the first to third Spirit Rings like this.
" Y-you… how is that possible? We should be the same age… but you already got a Spirit Ring, and it's not just one… but three…
And even more shocking, how come you absorbed a 10,000 year old Spirit Ring for the third Spirit Ring?"
Hehe, she was very surprised. Even to the point of speechlessness. Indeed, this kind of thing did not happen to ordinary humans.
But once again I say, I'm proud to say that I'm different.
" This can't be… this must be an illusion right!! You used an illusion on me right!!!!!"
"It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not, but now you know right? I have the power to protect myself."
I said dryly, wanting this to end quickly and leave.
There was a moment of silence after she said he didn't believe my Spirit Ring.
"Hm… since you have three Spirit Rings means you are a Spirit Elder. What level are you now?"
It seemed she had calmed down a bit after being shocked.
"I just absorbed the third Spirit Ring this morning, now my level is 33."
" What?!!! You gained three levels after absorbing the Spirit Ring? And so you really are a Spirit Elder?
This is not possible!!! Even I haven't absorbed a single Spirit Ring yet, but you already have three!!!"
"Nothing is impossible in this world, accept the facts, and get out of this forest."
I'm already getting annoyed with this girl's behavior, what's wrong with her? Hadn't she gone too far in her surprise?
"No way… Even if you awaken with full Innate spirit Power, right now you should only have one Spirit Ring…
That spirit awakening was just a few months ago, even I just leveled up and became level 10."
What's wrong with this girl? Isn't she too arrogant? She's been comparing me to herself ever since.
Isn't it obvious that I'm the more talented one here? What? You're saying I'm being too arrogant? Sorry I didn't hear that.
"Hey wake up!!! You have to quickly leave this place."
I grabbed the girl's shoulders and shook her trying to wake her up from the shock.
"Shut up!!! I'm here to look for Spirit Rings too!!!"
The girl slapped my hand and said angrily.
What's with this girl's change in attitude? She's changing too fast. Her attitude like this is very annoying.
"You are alone, how about looking for a Spirit Ring? You better go back first and ask someone stronger for help."
I have to be patient… right, Yang Kai!!! Being patient is also part of the exercise….
" That…."
Hmm? What is this? Why is she glancing towards the forest? Also, ever since I showed my Spirit Ring, I feel like I'm being watched.
Just in case, let's keep Observation Haki activated.
When the girl seemed to be hesitating about something, suddenly her eyes lit up and a sly but beautiful smile appeared on her face.
Somehow… I have a bad feeling… or is it just my feeling?
"Why don't you help me? Aren't you strong? You can prove it to me."
As I thought… she must be up to something. So this is what she wants… but sorry…
"I refuse, there's no point in helping you and also I'm busy."
"You say so, but why did you pull me in the first place? Was it because you were interested in me? Did you want to help me?"
Again, that sly smile makes me uncomfortable. It's like I'm being led in a certain direction without my knowledge.
"I only helped you because I know how dangerous this forest is. I don't want a little girl like you to go through the same thing."
"Wouldn't that be better? You can teach me your experience and help me get a Spirit Ring."
grr…. So this is what she wanted, now I have no reason to refuse her.
How about this? Should I really help her?
*Sigh*… there is no other choice…
"Well… What kind of Spirit Beast do you want? I'll help you look for it."
"Hm… I've been told to look for the Tricolor Peacock Spirit Beast."
"Tricolor Peacock? Isn't that the Spirit Beast that Auxiliary system Spirit Masters usually look for?"
"Right, because my Spirit is a support type."
"Then what are you doing entering this forest alone?!!!! Do you want to die?! This is the Star Dou Forest!!! The gathering place of the powerful Spirit Beasts!!!"
I'm so angry, this girl is too reckless. She was only a support type who had no fighting skills yet she still entered this forest.
Seriously, what's going on in this girl's head? To do something reckless like this.
If she was a fighting-type Spirit Master then it would still be natural. But she's really Auxiliary type (help / support)
It seemed she saw my anger and said quietly.
"Are you worried about me?"
"Of course!!! This place is more dangerous than you think, even I have almost died here several times."
I impatiently and angrily answered her.
"S-sorry…."
She became shrunken, it seemed somehow he looked like she was feeling guilty.
"No need to apologize, there's nothing to apologize for. Come on, we'll look for him."
Seeing her apologetic little figure, I couldn't get angry at this.
" Good."
