After finding a safe place to rest, Alex and Dim Dim stood guard as the first watch of the night.
"Dim Dim, do you think we can win against that thing?" Alex asked.
To his surprise, Dim Dim didn't reply immediately. Instead, the little one locked eyes with Alex, studying him in silence. They stared at each other for almost a full minute, until the Dim Sum God finally smiled and gave a small nod.
"Dim."
Alex smiled and lightly patted the Dim Sum God's head because he understood what it was trying to tell him.
Even though it was difficult, he had no choice but to win.
For that was the only way to continue his journey in the world of Arcana.
"You're right, Dim Dim," Alex said softly. "Conquering adversity is what gamers like us do best, you know? It's just a Boss Monster. I'll kill it and get some experience points to level up!"
"Dim!" Dim Dim's smile widened after hearing the young man's reply.
