“Can’t just do nothing.”

Filina opened the glass bottle on her waist and poured it into her mouth. An empty glass bottle fell to the ground and rolled with a clear sound.

It was a potion she received from the Magic Tower. Since Hugh couldn’t get the ingredients, she divided the remaining potion in half and carried it in a glass bottle. She didn’t expect to use it like this.

Filina gritted her teeth and applied force to the fingertips that held the sword. The monster flew in and attacked her with sharp claws. Filina quickly swung the sword and caused a light breeze.

It took 30 minutes for the potion to show its effect. Until then, she had to drag on somehow.

“… Sir Debussy.”

Shw heard Henry muttering in a low voice behind her. Filina spat out in an annoying voice.

“I’m telling you in advance, I can’t afford to protect Sir Argeny. So don’t mess with me for no reason, but hide somewhere else.”

Henry smiled in vain with a face of absurdity at her words. At the same time, he kept looking back at Filina as if he couldn’t believe his current situation. He couldn’t even protect the woman, but had to be protected.

Moreover, Filina was much smaller than Henry, and her appearance of staring at the monster was no different from that of a ferocious beast.

In particular, it was the red eyes that were so cold.

As the monster descended to the ground, not missing the moment, Filina ran forward without hesitation.

Her sword quickly cut through the wind and attacked the monster. The monster tried to block Filina’s approach with its one large wing.

But she swung her blade fiercely over the air once more. The monster spread one wing and floated in the sky. Black feathers scattered across the floor.

Filina held her breath for a moment and observed the movement of the monster.

Because it had only one wing, its speed was significantly reduced. Not only that, the number of times it descended to the ground decreased as if its stamina had decreased significantly.

First of all, she must avoid empty spaces where monsters could freely attack.

If it was weak now, moving to another place would not mess up the forest as before

Filina turned her head and thought about which direction she should run. In the meantime, she found Henry, who was still standing still.

She approached him with a puzzled expression and asked.

“What are you doing here? Are you trying to get killed?”

At Filina’s words, Henry opened his mouth with a bewildered face.

“It’s not… I can’t leave Sir Debussy alone…… ”

The tips of his ears were red as he was making excuses.

Meanwhile, his face became paler than before, and it was foolish to see him standing still in this place. She sighed heavily and looked straight at Henry. Then she exhaled coldly.

“You’re getting in the way.”

At Filina’s words, he twisted his expression and opened his lips.

“Do you really have to say that? I’m just worried about Sir Debussy…… ”

“I don’t need it.”
