"I am up, kid."
A voice came from above where Amon was sitting.
He looked up. There, on a branch of the tree, Vetaal hung upside down as usual. His long, dirty black hair hung loose, and his white eyes stared down at Amon.
With curiosity in his tone, Amon asked, "So do you understand about them? About the monsters? Why are they in deep slumber? Also, what that tower actually is? Why did it appear and remain for longer this time?"
He was very curious about all of this. He also wanted to know what the way to get outside might be.
Vetaal studied Amon for a while. Then he chuckled. "Haha~ eager to know, don't you? Well, I think it's not the right time to talk. I want to speak with you in detail. So let's discuss this once we get back to the village. When we are alone. That girl might come at any time."
Amon thought for a while, then nodded. He agreed with his reasoning. Scarlett's senses were sharp. She might hear them even from a few meters away. So it was better to be safe.
