Valerie's concerns

Trunulesia Forest,

Shortly after Zack left, Compton summoned the vice leader of the exploration team to his tent.

Valerie Lyons walked into the tent. She knows it's the time for ruin exploration. When he saw the leader sitting in the chair, she gave a small before standing in the same position.

Compton nodded at her before opening his mouth to say, "I have some instructions for you."

Hearing that, Valerie blinked her big eyes but still she nodded and was ready to obey the orders.

"Zack will be heading to the premise of the trunulesia forest. So go and protect him from shadows," Compton said in a solemn tone.

Valerie widened her eyes in disbelief. She thought the discussion would be about the ruin. But what is it with Zack Lockwood? She furrowed her eyes in confusion.

She didn't know why the leader is giving too much importance to the kid.
