Knowing the risks involved, Roy decided to embark on the quest alone, without involving Delilah.
Although he didn't want to leave her in the goblin's grotto, he knew that she was in no condition to fight.
She was covered in dust and appeared exhausted, with her inner world and energy nucleus almost devoid of aura. Moreover, her stamina was almost depleted, and her energy was significantly low. If she continued to use her soul-herding ability, her soul could become destabilized, and she could fall into a coma.
Roy didn't want that to happen to her. He had endured it once, and he knew how bad it felt. The helpless feeling of watching death approach but being unable to do anything was worse than anything.
『You have called upon your First Shadow!』
To ensure Delilah's safety, Roy summoned Shadowless and entrusted him with the task of guarding her with his life.
