Tai furrowed his brows with confusion. Though he understood very basic English, they were just a random assortment of words that he just so happened to learn with the help of his family.
Unfortunately, one of those words was not jump.
As such, he did not understand what Chase was screaming about, and needed Ling to translate. Ling himself had been shaken up considerably, feeling too afraid to say anything.
After all, he was a child, and a very timid one at that.
When Chase yelled at him, while it did break him out of his stupor, he was still having trouble. Frankly, Ling was just not a brave person in general.
In the end, he still couldn't say anything.
Chase was panicking because the reprieve brought by Kairos' fireball would soon disappear, meaning he couldn't carry out the next part of his plan.
Though Tai didn't understand exactly what was going on, he could tell that Ling was troubled. He suppressed his grunts as he cut through the monsters.
"Ling."
