(Y/n) Pov


Cassandra: What? What do you mean 'Go back'?

Erze: Yeah, why do you want us to go back?

(Y/n): Things are going to get hard further on.

Cassandra: We can handle this.

(Y/n): No, at this point, I don't want you to get hurt, or even worse...

Erze: (Y/n), no. We're going to come with you. 

(Y/n): Both of you, listen to me. There is something bad that is going to happen when we get to that, Angmund place. 

Cassandra: And we can take it.

(Y/n): Please, I love you both and I can't let the both of you get killed. I really want you both to go back to Orvel and stay safe. I couldn't help you when Malduk nearly killed you, I don't want any situation to end up like before. 

I gave them a quick kiss, but with more emotion to the kiss. After the kiss they look down with concern, but they understood.

Cassandra: Okay, we'll go back.

Erze: But promise us you won't die.

(Y/n): I promise. Once this is all over, we can spend time together for as long as you want.

Cassandra: Thank you...

She gave me a kiss before she heads back. Erze walks up to me and kissed me, before she follows Cassandra. Kasel walked up to me and placed his hand on my shoulder.

Kasel: You care about them a lot do you?

(Y/n): I love them a lot. I don't want them to get hurt.

Kasel: Okay, look let's continue on.

(Y/n): Yeah... right.

After our farewells, Kasel and the others are heading to the Aegina Deserts along with me.


Timeskip


We made it to Aegina Desert, and it is very hot.

Roi: Finally, the Aegina Dessert.

Kasel: The Barbarian kingdom was located within the Windland Snow Mountains, right?

Cleo: The mountains are straight up north.

(Y/n): But they are blocked off by a cliff. The only way to get there is through Dragia Volcano.

Roi: *Sigh* Seems we still have quite the journey ahead of us.

Frey: The Dragia Volcano should be west of our location.

Kasel: Dimael said Aegina was overrun by the Demons...

(Y/n): We should be careful then.

As I said that, I heard screeching and running. We looked over to see large scorpions.

Kasel: As expected, the Desert has scorpions.

Frey: Careful, Kasel. Scorpions are rather dangerous.

Roi: Those huge pincers are rather impressive.

Kasel: True... Mmm.

Cleo: Roi, I think Kasel is impressed by those pincers in a different way.

Roi: Yeah, I could tell once he started making that noise.

Kasel: The pincers are tastiest when it comes to these. Let's go!

Frey: Don't get too excited, Kasel! You'll get hurt.

My Vision warned me something's coming out of the ground and bites Roi's foot. I ran next to Roi and blocked the thing.

(Y/n): A worm!!

Roi: What the!?

I grabbed it's neck and snapped it.

(Y/n): For worms like them, they have bones.

Roi dodged the pincer of a scorpion, I cut off its pincer and slam the Monado on top of it and chopping it in half. Kasel went the pincer and take it off the sand.

Kasel: Nice job saving the food.

(Y/n): Food?

I moved Kasel out of the way and switched the Monado to Shield and stabbed another scorpion's eyes. The pincer hit me, but Shield has blocked the stinging. I cut off it's tail and it's claws off.

Kasel: That's all of them.

(Y/n): For now.

Kasel: Well, about those Demons running wild in Aegina. I don't see any.

Frey: I wonder if it's because we've just entered the Desert.

(Y/n): Perhaps the army moved somewhere else? 

Roi: He might be right, it's been a while since Diamael returned Arrovina, after all.

Kasel: Let's be careful, just in case. 

Roi: On that note, I sense an odd presence looking this way. Who's there!?

???: Hey! don't turn around!

???: Hey! don't turn around!

Kasel: A girl?

???: *Sigh*  And things were just getting good... Still! Even his face is so handsome!! But, but the rear view was... wait stay still for a second.

(Y/n):'Goddammit, she is hitting on Roi... I feel Cleo's anger coming...'

Roi: Hey! It's impolite to stare at a specific part of someone's body like that.

???: On top of that, so cool! What a great catch.~

Roi: Treating people like objects is rude, you know.

???: Sorry, sorry I've been working as a mercenary for so long, I just kinda go and evaluate people.~

Roi: A mercenary? Who hired you to come all this way to the dessert?

???: Umm... right now, I don't have any contracts. Want to hire me? I'll give you a discount!

(Y/n) and Roi: No.

???: Hmm... will you be able to refuse after seeing my skills? C'mon let's go I'll show you!

(Y/n) and Roi: No.

???: Hehe, then go on ahead first, I'll just... enjoy myself a bit more. Hehe~

Cleo: Heh, Roi looks like you better let her hang around you rather than... you know!

Roi: *Sighs* Another weirdo.

(Y/n): 'A giant pain in the ass... Well, got to suck it up and keep going...'
