"Wait... God Slayer?" Xia Ji was stunned. God Slayer and the like... sounded terrifying just hearing it.
"What? Is there a problem?" Yae Sakura looked at her calmly.
"No..." The kimono girl, recalling the bloodthirsty expression Yae Sakura had shown when slaying the demon earlier, shuddered and quickly shook her head.
"By the way! Let me ask you something..."
"What is it? Lord Yae, please speak." Xia Ji quickly lowered her head.
"Have you ever heard of a Miko named Kikyo?" Kikyo's name should be quite famous, right?
"Kikyo? No..." Xia Ji shook her head upon hearing this.
"Alright..."
"Lord Yae..."
"Hm?" Yae Sakura looked at her with confusion.
"Could I ask you for a favor?" Xia Ji gazed at Yae Sakura with a pitiful, pleading look.
"What favor?"
"Could you escort me home? Of course! I'll have my father reward you."
With all the samurai and guards dead, going back alone was simply impossible...
Who knew when a few more demons might suddenly jump out. To demons, she was worth more than a hundred ordinary girls.
Due to Japan's special circumstances, the daughters of nobles held a far greater allure for the local demons than ordinary people.
But because noble ladies were protected by powerful samurai, mages, and Onmyoji, they were hard to get.
A lone noble girl like Xia Ji was like a drug, attracting nearby demons.
"I..."
Just as Yae was about to say something, suddenly—
[Received Quest: Escort Xia Ji Home]
[Reward: 5 Crystal]
[Accept?]
"Uh... alright! I accept."
Yae Sakura had already planned to accept. Now with an extra 5 Crystal thrown in, it was an unexpected gain.
Right now, Yae Sakura needed to farm Crystal. Aside from quests... the only option was farming demons, but hunting them one by one was too troublesome.
With Xia Ji as bait, she could just wait by the tree for the rabbits to come.
"Thank you so much!" Xia Ji looked at Yae Sakura with gratitude.
Even though she was a Half-Demon... she seemed pretty nice, after all!
