"I... don't want to die..."
Underground, this series of piercing cries made Hewinia shiver all over. She instinctively thought it was some kind of monster crawling up from the depths and immediately wanted to do something to defend herself.
But at this moment, Hewinia was too weak, and her magic wand was destroyed in the previous explosion, leaving her unable to do anything at all.
Moreover, her movement unintentionally caused a faint sound.
The sobbing from deep underground stopped immediately.
Oh no, I've been discovered.
Hewinia thought to herself that this was bad, but she couldn't do anything, so she could only stare intently at the dark and deep cave entrance, as if something monstrous would emerge from there the very next second.
But she waited for a long time, and no such monster appeared; instead, she only heard a low inquiry.
"Is there someone there?"
Hewinia narrowed her eyes slightly.
What kind of monster is this that it can converse with humans?
