A powerful gust of wind ruffled his long white hair, and he was startled when a were-creature crept out from behind the bushes.
"Who are you?"
With a sly sound, the frontiers moved once more. He kept an eye on it, and if a strong monster approached him, he would not hesitate to return to the real world in the meantime. So he could find answers to the questions that pierced his mind.
"Come on..." He mumbled while his eyes widening. "Exhibit your appearance." He said this as he began to bounce again at a fast pace.
Thud!
Then, all of a sudden, a blond-haired woman collapsed to the ground, her crimson armor shattered. Her body was covered in bruises and scratches that appeared to have been caused by the spiky plants in this forest.
"Roshy?" He asked himself in hushed tones, startled when he saw the woman who was the first adventurer he met in this game again.
He quickly approached Roshy, curious as to what had happened to her in this dungeon. "What exactly are you doing here? Why are you being bathed in your own blood?" He was concerned about her after witnessing Roshy's brutal situation.
"G-Grim..." She barely cracked a smile. "I thought to myself, if I can't find you, I'm glad I came back here." Roshy stated that her character's body was harmed based on her tone.
Yumiro knew that if Roshy logged out in this state, her character's body would most likely expel a liter of blood, and there was a chance Roshy would never return to the VR world.
"She didn't answer my question... Hais why I was always dragged to situations where the creature was on the verge of death?" He noticed Roshy didn't have her black sword on her waist, but he still carried her to a safe place where she could rest.
Ahuu!
He heard a wolf howl that echoed throughout the forest, so he hoped the monsters wouldn't notice him. He will most likely be at a disadvantage once it discovered them.
Yumiro was irritated because Roshy's blood had rolled down his black robe; aside from that, the place was dark and there were algae on the spiky polish surface, slowing him down. They will fall if they take one wrong step, which could be disastrous for Roshy.
Yumiro noticed a small cave with moonlight after about ten minutes. He looked behind him and noticed Roshy's face was closer to him.
"Tch! When she falls asleep, she appears to be a lovely lady." He said to himself. "I'll bring you to that cave so you can rest, and I can continue this expedition--" He paused after Roshy gently rubbed his arm, which made him surprised.
"Ple... Please don't abandon me here yet; I desperately need your assistance." She murmured in Yumiro's ear in a seductive tone, which caused Yumiro's body to heat up.
He immediately laid Roshy down on the surface as he wasn't at ease with that kind of feeling.
"U-Use your heal potions as soon as possible to stop your bleeding." Yumiro stuttered and spun around, oblivious to his red face.
"Right, in... inventory," Roshy said, grabbing HP's potion with both hands.
Break!
When Yumiro heard the sound of shattered glass, he quickly glanced at Roshy. "Her strength is depleted; what should she do?" He voluntarily took the last potion she had in her inventory.
He then lifted Roshy's head and placed it on his lap. And he gently opened her red lips and pointed the tube glass's tip. "Come on, drink it," Yumiro said while seeing the red liquid fell directly into her mouth.
Roshy whirled around as she started to feel comfortable.
'This is awkward, I should get out of here,' He uttered his min and sat on the cave entrance. "Her bleeding has stopped; all I have to do now is wait for her to wake up." Yumiro leaned back against the wall, where all he could hear were the drops of water.
He realized something as a cool breeze hit his face. "Why, why, why?! Why?! I didn't trust anyone, but if I didn't do this, I'd despise myself." He removed his black robe and draped it over Roshy's battered body.
...
On the other hand, hundreds of adventurers were sent into the Lynx dungeon in search of the adventurer who finished the hidden task solo.
Some brought torches to make it easier to locate the adventurers, but the high-level adventurers utilized illuminative magic to encircle a broad area.
"Is he visible to you? This is our time to get to know him better." A white-haired woman with a bust chest revealed her level was around 70 up and she had a bust chest.
A man with a mourning star on his back shook his head as sweat poured down his face. "Sorry, Ms. Alison, we haven't been able to locate him; it appears he isn't in the midst. He's more than likely a position on the dungeon's outskirts."
"So, what are you waiting for? Send some of our guild members to find him, and when they do, tell them to contact me right away because I'd like to meet him in person." Following her statements, a man wearing a mask on his face vanished from her eyesight, leaving no trace.
She looked up at the stars in the night sky, hoping they could find a way to recruit Grim Draigh even if it meant spending a lot of money just to join.
"This adventurer suddenly spread in the entire world, what kind of Zexel he has? And the kind of weapon he uses." She said and continued her manhunt.
[Obusula Pace!]
Her body was encircled by the white aura, which inflicted her to increase her movements, so he also disappeared on the summit of the high cliff.
...
When Yumiro noticed a sound moving beside him, he opened his eyes. He spotted Roshy forcing herself to sit on the stone, where the sound of water droplets could be heard.
"Why does she continue to move? Oh, yeah, there's something in my inventory that might be able to help him regain her strength." He walked alongside her. "Are you a moron? I'll give you something if you stop moving."
Roshy grinned, despite the fact that she was suffering from her statistic. "Gr... Grim, thank you for your assistance, but I'm afraid I won't be able to..." When Yumiro shoved the deer flesh into Roshy's mouth, she couldn't finish her sentence.
"What is this?" Her tone of voice and posture were flawless, but she was utterly unaware of it.
"It appears you're okay now," Yumiro sighed, but he opted not to respond to Roshy's words, "Tell me what you need from me, so I may leave." Yumiro was perplexed as to why Roshy was alone in the Lynx dungeon. He reasoned that she had been connected with the other adventurer since she met the man with blue hair, whose face everybody could trust.
When Roshy realized what had occurred to her, she burst out crying. "Grim, could you help me?!"
"Are you in need of assistance? What should I do that? Give me a reason to assist you." He explained that he wanted to know if he may profit from this.
"I'm sorry, but I can't offer you anything right now; and if you want me to become your slave, I'll accept."
"Tch! Do you believe you're worth becoming my slave?"
"In this world, I have a lot of information, and I can keep studying to provide you all the information you require."
"Do you have everything I require?" It drew Yumiro's attention, according to Roshy.
"Yes, I'll take care of everything without receiving any complaints."
"Then tell me what you need from me so that I can determine whether or not I can assist you."
"Please help me to retrieve my sword and my gold,"
"That's all? Tell me their description, and fulfill our agreement so we can proceed." He smirked as he knew this had benefits for him.
