After journeying for a while, the young woman pointed at a spot not too distant from them. "Mana Village is up ahead. Thank you for saving me. I can return by myself."
As she spoke, she grabbed the demon beast from Frazier and strolled toward her home.
Stunned, Frazier peered at the young woman with confusion. "What an impolite girl. We rescued and escorted her home, yet she didn't even invite us to her home for a drink?"
Jacob was somewhat baffled, too. She doesn't look ill-mannered, so why didn't she propose we visit her village?
Silver-Mallet noticed the duo's confusion and clarified, "The humans in the Ethereal Realm are very wary of each other. A small village like hers probably doesn't allow any strangers to enter."
