I immediately tried to throw her off of rip on er than I would have expected froirl I wanted to let Roel knoas fine, but my voice cracked when I tried to call out Actually, even if I could, it probably wouldn't have been a good idea Who kne Roel would react

Even though she looked like a child, she definitely wasn't huainst the wall A huge crash sounded and the wall cruo It didn't even seem to notice

”Wh-what are you? Why are you doing this?”

It let out an eerie sound in reply It sounded like its vocal cords had been s from some hole in its head, but I think it said, ”Let's play”

We clearly weren't going to be able to talk this out Well, this is exactly ere commissioned to do from the start anyway I felt bad because of how hu to have to eliminate it My sas still in ic should be effective against ghost-type monsters

[ Ryua cast Lightning Bolt! ]

There was a flash and a moment later thunder sounded I could tell it was a direct hit It was so close to e frootten it off of me

[ Ryua received 3,100 dae! HP 37,363/40,463 ]

[ Spirit of a Little Girl received no dae! HP ???/??? ]

” plaaa ”

It's head rocked back and forth out of sync with its swaying body It was awithout any bones Continuing that unsettling movement, it slowly drew closer and closer toup behindquickly

”Wh-hat…” Roel had arrived, co on

I wasn't going to let that thing lay a hand on Roel I quickly closed the distance and landed a direct punch to its face It started to fly through the air, but it suddenly stopped and began its weird ain

[ Spirit of a Little Girl received no dae! HP ???/??? ]

No matter what I did, it see that creepylike this, so I had no idea ould work Would it even make a difference whether I had my sword or not? Plus, if I somehow accidentally set off that additional effect…

”Lesss plaaayooo”

Was it saying it was just toying withlike this outside the Caverns Could everything there only have been the start to as really on the outside? It's been a long tiely I was enjoying it

”Ryua, that girl doesn't seem like she's about to attack”

Its ar out towards us I jumped in front of Roel to shi+eld her, but she didn't seem to be afraid anymore

”Girl… not our… enemy…”

I hadn't noticed Torepo standing behind us

Roel walked up to the spirit and gave it a hug ”I'm sorry”

As Roel spoke those words, the little girl stopped an to spill out from its empty eye sockets, then suddenly it disappeared from in between Roel's arms I didn't understand what just happened, but remained alert just in case

”Roel, as that just now?”

”I'”

”This… way…” Torepo was pointing at afroirl had been, and he had a number of visible wounds What drewfrom his empty eye sockets The male spirit didn't walk and instead floated down the stairs Torepo went after him, so Roel and I followed

The spirit h the bath area, stopping in front of the wall that covered the path to the basement It had been replaced with some kind of clear barrier The spirit went up and touched it with a finger, then he beca him inside

”This is…”

Once the man had disappeared, it turned back into the wall froo, so I walked up to the wall and got rid of it with a kick

”Down…” Torepo began walking down the stairs into the darkness

What was the spirit trying to tell us? That spirit wasn't evil, but were there other spirits down there that were? There was no way to know, so we followed Torepo down the stairs
