With Fang and Igni in tow, we went straight for the teleportation array leading to the Cleaver Kingdom. However, before we could teleport away, I felt a powerful tug coming from behind me.
Turning around, I could see Princess Hazel's still-crying face. However, her eyes turned from her hopelessness earlier to one with burning hope.
"P-Please take me with you!"
"..."
Honestly, she'd be a hindrance if we brought her along. Her power was probably not worth mentioning, being only 12 years old. She doesn't even have the Taming System yet.
However, the desire burning in her eyes told me that refusing her would be a futile thing to do. She'd probably pester me until I agreed or tag along regardless of my agreement.
"*sigh* Alright. But you need to listen to my words while we're there. Understand?"
