The girl who had been driven out of her party sat by the roadside, wrapped in a cloak, until someone tossed her a gold coin and warned her never to enter a dungeon again.
Xing Yu made his living as a "plunderer," stealing and selling other adventurers’ belongings. When he saved the girl, he never expected her to cling to him like this.
"I want to become an amazing adventurer, someone whose name alone makes people feel safe!" The earnest look in her eyes made him glance at her with fresh interest.
"I’m no mage, so I can’t teach you anything. But I’ll make your wish come true," he promised.
By the time they parted and met again, neither of them was the person they used to be. Each time the girl reluctantly said goodbye, it was so she could grow strong enough not to hold him back, and fulfill the wish she’d had from the start: to team up with him and explore a dungeon.
