Nothing was worse than the air suddenly falling silent.
But there was no helping it. That Voidranger had died far too quickly.
He had left just as quickly as he had attacked the Mimic Honey Badger, vanishing with a whoosh. Truly, he had "come and gone in a flash."
After a brief silence, the Incineration Shadewalker clenched his fists and said furiously, "Y-you bastard! You actually... you actually did that to him! We will never forgive you! Your days of ruling this forest are over!
"For the Voidranger, for our other friends, and for every other living creature in this forest, we must defeat you today! Aaaah!"
"This guy... is so dramatic..."
Watching the Incineration Shadewalker shout what sounded like hot-blooded declarations, then swing his weapon and lead his companions in an attack on the Mimic Honey Badger, March 7th simply couldn't suppress the urge to comment.
"This plot keeps making me feel like I've seen it somewhere before."
"That so-called 'protagonist template,' right?" Jiang Yu said beside her. "It feels like reading one of those animal-world comic books for toddlers published by the Corporation.
"If it follows that plot, this Incineration Shadewalker probably won't be able to beat that mimic monster no matter what he does. He'll even lose his friends, then have to endure humiliation and hardship before finally defeating his enemy."
"Doesn't that make us the legendary old mentors? We pick up this badly wounded Aether Spirit, train him, teach him skills, and finally help him defeat that big guy who's the final boss." March 7th picked up right where Jiang Yu left off.
"Wow, Little Fish and March have clearly read plenty of those!" Siberian Duck couldn't help smiling at March 7th and Jiang Yu's comments and discussion in the game.
