Nicole stopped in place, looking at Kairos with a bit of a confused expression.
"Ah, well I completed my promotion mission, and it helped me kill a lot of things even when I hadn't yet been promoted to the C rank. After I thought I got enough points, I decided to move up a rank, but after that, all the monsters seemed to be really afraid of me, hehe. It might be a little hard to get points, sorry."
Kairos shook his head slowly, his lips ever so slightly parted the entire time.
"I mean... you said that I waited for you. But... I don't remember ever doing something like that."
Nicole raised her eyebrows in surprise for a moment. She couldn't help but let out a small laugh as a gentle smile spread out across her face. Instead of going the way she had been, she looked over at a huge section of rubble near the side of the road.
