Lance laid the matter out so directly on the table that Grendel was somewhat taken aback, but she slowly shook her head.
"No~"
"All right, what do you plan to do then? Where will you go next?" Lance looked unfazed and did not press further; instead, he proactively shifted the emphasis of the conversation.
This sudden change caught Grendel off guard. Had he given up just like that after the posture he had taken earlier?
However, after hearing his subsequent words, she couldn't help but fall silent.
Right… where can I go?
"If you don't have a specific destination, what do you want to do?" Lance asked again, understanding her situation from her demeanor.
Lance originally knew only that the Deerhead Tribe had been attacked; the extent to which the tribe was devastated was still unclear to him.
Whether she came to seek the Witch's help as reinforcements for her tribe, or had nowhere else to go and was seeking Sanctuary, he wasn't sure.
