Chapter 31: High-Tier Equipment
The system panel was deactivated, Agares turned and saw that Aoi was still fast asleep.
Knowing that the others didn’t know about Aoi’s fox-like appearance made her feel more comfortable in her fox form than in her human form.
Aoi stretched her body on the bed, her mouth wide open, her fangs clearly visible. Aoi slowly opened her eyes and saw Agares sitting on the sofa watching her.
"Good morning," said Aoi.
Agares could tell that Aoi was still sleepy. She rubbed her eyes with her hands from time to time. She tried to get up and continued stretching her body to fully wake up.
"Did something happen while I was asleep?"
"Erika’s rescue team has arrived. They failed their mission," replied Agares, shocking Aoi.
Aoi walked from the nightstand to the sofa where Agares was sitting. She said she wanted more details, but Agares didn’t tell her.
That’s because it wasn’t important for Agares to tell her the details of their mission failure. The most important thing was what happened after that.
"After this, Sir Thorn has entrusted us with the task of rescuing Erika," replied Agares.
"We’re going to the S-level dungeon?"
