Chapter 1026: She is Just an Ordinary Person

Chapter 1026: She is Just an Ordinary Person

“What’s this?”

Lin Nuo was shocked. How is there another person? And also a little girl?

Good heavens, just how many souls from another world have entered this realm? Or is she yet another traveler?

I never expected there would be so many strange characters where I was born.

This mountain is so big, and he runs into two? Who knows, maybe there’s even a tribal person, a princess from some Demon Realm, or a rogue hero among them, thinking they can just immigrate to this world.

The little girl approaching him was shorter than the one behind him but full of energy, and she had a little sword at her waist.

She wore simple clothes, white with pink hints, suggesting she came from an ordinary family, completely different from the girl behind him.

She saw Lin Nuo and the others but didn’t stop, continuing toward them.

“What are you doing here? Do you know why the animals and people in the mountains are dying?”

She asked Lin Nuo and the others, moving up to them without realizing it.

“From your clothes, you must come from a wealthy family, right? Are those people on the mountainside your subordinates? Do you know what happened?”

This little girl started talking a lot, with a tone that was almost heroic.

“And you, who are you? What are you doing here?”

Lin Nuo shot back at her, but she proudly replied:

“Hey, I’m a heroine! I’m here to help the weak and fight against the strong. If you’re scared, you’d better follow me.”

“Scared?”

Lin Nuo chuckled. What a joke! A child like this really dares to say such things!

A heroine? I’m more of a masked warrior myself.

“Little sister, I suggest you go home; this place isn’t suitable for you.”

“You should go home! I need to find out what’s happening here.”

The little girl wouldn’t back down. Lin Nuo shook his head. Truly a fearless little thing. Fine, go ahead and investigate.

“By what you said, you just came to the mountain? What’s your name?”

Lin Nuo asked. If she just got here, it makes sense; newcomers wouldn’t absorb the demon aura and die.

“Not telling you. Do you know what’s happening? This heroine needs to solve the problem.” The little girl said confidently.

“If you’re so capable, why not find the problem and solve it yourself?”

Lin Nuo couldn’t get any information from her, and she seemed too confident—perhaps she learned a little martial art and it got to her head.

In his memory, he didn’t know of anyone so conceited. Probably just some girl he didn’t recognize.

Forget it, look at her smugness; I can’t be bothered.

“Seems like you guys don’t know anything. Better get off this mountain quickly; don’t wander around here. I’m going to find out the cause myself.”

She was stubborn and wouldn’t argue with Lin Nuo anymore, heading towards the Crack of the Demon Realm.

“Big brother, it’s dangerous there; we shouldn’t let her go over there…”

The little girl behind Lin Nuo tugged at his hand, watching the newcomer run towards the crack, worried.

“She’s so confident, what’s so dangerous for her? Don’t worry so much and mind your own business.”

“Uh… Okay…”

She had to keep quiet. Maybe she was overthinking it. Big brother is so reliable; everything will be fine.

But even as Lin Nuo said so, he didn’t leave. Watching the smaller girl walk away, he suddenly changed his mind and said:

“Let’s go back.”

“Huh? No, don’t…”

The little girl behind him got scared. But if they pressed on, she always worried those fierce beasts from the crack would jump out and attack her.

She already had trauma from that.

“They said you came from there. Don’t you have any impressions?”

“None. I can’t remember where I came from… Sorry… I’ll try harder…”

“I don’t need you to try harder; if you can’t remember, it’s fine.”

Lin Nuo shook his head. If you could figure it out easily, why would I be doing all this?

“You’re scared to go over, right? Then you wait here while I check it out. I won’t go far. If there’s anything, just shout for me, okay?”

“Um… okay… then big brother, be quick about it…”

The little girl could only wait. She really feared those fierce beasts of the Demon Realm and decided not to go.

So, Lin Nuo went with the newly arrived little girl to see what trouble she would get into.

If she got caught in demon energy and passed out, he would just take her gear and run.

The small girl noticed Lin Nuo following her, turned her head, and said with a bit of pride:

“Hey, you’re scared, right? That’s why you’re following me? Why isn’t that girl coming along? You just leave her behind?”

“Don’t overthink it. I’m just taking this path. I met her by chance, and it’s normal to part ways. You go your way; I’ll go mine.”

“Hehe, why hide it? If you’re scared, just say so. This heroine will protect you. If anything happens, I can’t guarantee your safety.”

“Think whatever you want.”

Lin Nuo didn’t want to talk to her anymore. What a naïve little girl she is, only a few years old, and always going on about being a heroine.

Her image reminded him of those foolish protagonists who don’t know how high the sky is; without a protagonist’s aura, they’d be dead a hundred times over.

The real protagonist of this world is Su Kexin. That girl doesn’t have such a terrible personality; she’s actually quite humble, though a bit silly.

So someone like her is probably here to be cannon fodder. Let’s see how she dies; that’d be quite satisfying, watching this so-called heroine meet her end.

Lin Nuo followed her with some distance. If this little girl got into trouble, she’d have to come to him for help, and he wouldn’t bother to save her.

Not long after, the little girl arrived at the crack. The crack in the air looked narrow but was quite impressive to her.

“What is this?!”

She was thrilled. Why is there such a glowing crack here?!

【So much for being a heroine, she hasn’t seen a grand scene before】

Lin Nuo shook his head. Encountering two little girls, they were worlds apart—one terrified to death, and the other excited to death.

Why not combine their energies a little?

“Heh, you came back, little one. Did you figure it out?”

The demon from the other side of the crack noticed Lin Nuo and hurried to ask him, trying to salvage the situation.

Lin Nuo smiled:

“Yes, I’ve figured it out. Can I sacrifice her?”

Lin Nuo pointed at the other little girl, wanting to see the reaction.

Clearly, he was rejected:

“Are you joking with me? Only the previous one can be sacrificed; this one cannot. Plus, if you let her get close to the crack, she could die.”

“Oh, I see. Then that’s no use.”

Lin Nuo waved his hand. Since the demon realm doesn’t approve, this little girl is just an ordinary person.

Let her go; have a happy journey.

The little girl, full of curiosity, reached out to touch the crack, and the demon energy surged into her body. The once cheery expression on her face instantly crumbled to the ground.
