Chapter 29: Return Now?!
Extra Chapter...(On Completing 1200 Power Stones)
....
In his original world, there weren't monsters like Stonehide Lawachurls. If he had to compare, a Lawachurl in this world was probably on par with something like Earth Dragon Araba in his.
But honestly, right now, he wasn't particularly afraid of Earth Dragon Araba anymore.
"And you're still that confident?" Paimon was very puzzled.
"Even though I haven't fought a Lawachurl, I have plenty of combat experience. I can give it a try," Elliot replied nonchalantly. "Besides, even if we get a little hurt, the kind Miss Barbara is here to heal us, right?"
Hearing Elliot's praise, Barbara blushed slightly but cleared her throat and said gently, "We can try. Taking a long detour would be too troublesome. But please, don't push yourselves too hard. If anyone gets injured, I can provide healing."
"Well, since Miss Barbara said so, I guess we have no choice but to go for it," Paimon said, spreading her hands in a helpless gesture.
Lumine rolled her eyes. "You never help when we fight Hilichurls anyway."
Paimon scratched her head sheepishly. "Don't say that! I'm always cheering you on from the sidelines! Besides, Elliot is Zhongli's cousin; he must be strong too. Nothing to be afraid of!"
With the decision made, the group of four headed towards the Hilichurl camp. Along the way, Elliot easily dispatched over a dozen Hilichurls.
