Chapter 163.1
Lord of the Ancient Ruins
“Chaco Nee-chan…. Is everyone alright….”
“Un…we’re fine.”
Rana the Dwarf anxiously held Chaco’s hand, while Noi the Dark Elf looked like he was about to cry, but stoutly stared out as the only boy.
Naru, the youngest Dog-Beastman, went outside by himself and did not return; everyone was worried about Naru and wanted to go looking for him, but still the three who remained here knew that waiting was an important part of their role.
Ron and Rena, who had gone to look for her…and Aria, who had returned afterward, had taught them that.
Chaco was a little scared of Aria. Even though he knew that she had cured Noi’s illness and risked her life to save Chaco from the Mun Group, she had a harder way of life than any adult Chaco had ever known, and when he stood in front of her, he was afraid that she would scold him for not doing anything.
She was strict with herself and others…surely the kindest person anyone could ever be.
Someone who would risk her own life for someone else.
Because Aria was such a person, Chaco was afraid to tell her that Rena had gone to look for Naru.
