Meanwhile, Kira was walking along a separate path within the dungeon, the route Raito had instructed her to take. Ten undead guards followed silently behind her, their hollow eyes glowing faintly in the dim light.
"This isn't going to be easy," she muttered under her breath. "Hunters aren't supposed to enter a dungeon alone. He's strong, but if the two of us were together, it'd be different. Separated like this… anything could happen."
Her steps echoed off the walls as unease crept into her voice. "Even a B-rank monster takes a whole B-rank party, six people, to take it down. I could handle that alone, maybe. But if I run into an A-rank… or worse, an S-rank…"
She trailed off, tightening her grip on her blade. "Still, since he said the one he's fighting is even stronger, I just have to keep moving. Doesn't matter. I'll keep going and see if there's anyone still alive."
