Kenshi, The Spirit Swordsman

Chapter 4

-2/23/20XX; Floor 35: Lost Forest-

Kenshi: Man, I thought we were done after that seventh boss, but then BAM, there's number eight.

Shin: I just... wanna go home.

While they're walking in the forest, they saw some monsters are about to killed a girl so the two of them quickly took down the monsters. When they done, the girl turned around to see that she had been saved.

Kenshi: What's wrong, little girl?

???: Pina...

The girl said with tears in her eyes.

Kenshi: Ok...?

She took the feather near there and cried.

Shin: What's that feather?

???: It's Pina. My friend...

Shin: You're a beast tamer? I'm sorry. We weren't able to save your friend.

???: No...it was stupid of me. For thinking that I could make it through the forest on my own... for being so arrogant! Thank you so much...for saving me.

Kenshi: Does that feather happen to have an item name?

She checked the feather and the name "Pina's Heart" appeared. She cried even more.

Shin: Don't cry. If Pina's Heart is still here, there's a chance you can revive it.

???: Really?

Shin: On the south side of floor 47, there's a field dungeon called the Hill of Memories. The flower that blooms at the top is an item for reviving familiars.

???: Floor 47...

Shin: We could get it for you , but the familiar's master has to be there or the flower won't bloom.

???: I'm very grateful just to have the information! If I work hard to raise my level, then someday...

Kenshi: That's the thing. Pina can only be resurrected up to three days after its death.

???: No way... All because of me...

Kenshi: You have three days so you don't have to worries about it.

Kenshi sent her a trade request.

Kenshi: This equipment should be good for a boost of five or six levels. If we go with you, I think it should all work out.

???: Why would you two do all this for me?

Shin: Well, help people is kinda our thing for a long time now.

???: Oh. Um, I'm sure this isn't enough to cover it, but...

Shin: No no, it's okay. We don't need any MORE col. It's not like this doesn't overlap with our reason for coming here.

Silica: Ok. I-I'm Silica.

Shin: I'm Shin. And that's Kenshi. For the time being, we'll be working together.

She shake their hands.

-Floor 35: Mishe-

As we're walking in the town, there were two players running towards Silica.

Player1: Hey Silica! You were pretty late getting back! We were worried about you!

Silica: U-Um...

Player2: Let's party up sometime! We'll take you wherever you want, okay?

Silica: That's very kind of you, but... I've decided to form a party with them for a while, so...
