In the end, Rose still went up the mountain with Casio.
She said: It is a hunter's duty to complete a task without retreating. Besides, she was a white-luminance level hunter. Helping Casio deal with a few small fry would not be a problem.
Casio trusted her, and didn't care whether Rose was with him or not. Although he had just arrived in the Era of Retrospection, his Qi was already able to unleash power through a special method. According to his own estimation, he was proficient enough to match the skill of a great fighter, comparable to a peak white-luminance level hunter or an ordinary dark-gold level hunter, putting him just below the top six hunters.
If he, as the seventh-ranked hunter in the Dark Hunt organization, couldn't handle such a minor task, then he might as well end his retrospective journey now. Moreover, he still had an ace up his sleeve. If he encountered any real danger, Casio could burst all his Qi once, restoring his peak condition momentarily.
