I Was Reborn, So I Chose To Become A Reaper. [Discontinued]

Chapter 5 : <Companion.>

The Wolf-Girl covered her blushing face with both of her hands in embarrassment.

... Uh... Well, there's no going back now.

... I didn't end her life because of... I guess it's a strong sense of compassion... But I just said that she looked cute, didn't I? Was it something unconscious? Agh... I'm confused with my own feelings now.

An awkward atmosphere settled between us again, so I took the opportunity to use [Soul Harvest].

Huh. A lot of my skills are at level 8. I wonder what happens when they reach level 10? 

The Wolf-Girl glanced at me again. I think she's trying to lessen the tension between us.

{Wolf-Girl}
"U-uh... Mr. Wraith? Do you understand what I'm saying?"

{Drakka}
"... Yeah, I do."

{Wolf-Girl}
"U-um... I-I like your voice..."

She looked away, face flushed again. She's so shy that I think I already know why I thought she was cute... Good thing my voice sounds like a whisper, or she may have been intimidated.

{Wolf-Girl}
"M-my name is Reina ... Do you... have a name?"

{Drakka}
"Yeah, I'm Drakka. Nice to meet you, Reina."

{Reina}
"N-nice to meet you too..."

She put her hand on her... Pitiful chest... Come to think of it, she's pretty short, isn't she?

Her ears abruptly shot up. She stiffened, grabbing her staff and jumped up. My [Danger Sense] picked up a small horde of Orcs... They're quite a bit more dangerous than the first one I killed, and they're considerable threat to me. Even more so for Reina. The Orc's heavy footstepps were already slightly audible.
