"Big Mushroom, was it you who saved me?"
In the tree hollow, the finally awake Elf, with a face pale from the brink of death, bore an undeniable excitement despite her weakness.
She kept gently stroking Scout Puki's smooth mushroom cap with her fingers, her gaze full of delight.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw two neatly cut Wind Wolf corpses at the entrance of the cave and the Puki beside her with dark red blood still on its Tentacle Blade, making the conclusion obvious!
It must have been this new friend who drove away the wolves, protecting her while she was unconscious!
Though being eaten by wolves wasn't unacceptable, surviving and making more friends was clearly better!
However... Puki killing Wind Wolves was truly unbelievable!
She never bothered to question why this Puki helped her, as she was often befriended and aided by the creatures of the forest due to her "Friend of Animals" title.
Puki... counts as half an animal?
