Chapter 54: Lazy Spider and Hungry Giant

Alexander woke up to the sound of heavy breathing beside him. He looked at Qin Zuijia, examining whether the others were feeling discomfort or have troubles in his sleep. He watches as Qin Zuijia's lashes quiver and shakes as he caresses his pale cheeks. He sighed and looked to his other side.

When he fell asleep, the baby was still there, hugging and trying to find comfort in his arms. The baby looks trustworthy enough for Alexander to let him rest with the person he was tasked to protect. He plans to use the baby to navigate through the massive cave, and maybe get some hints about Anansi. His employer didn't give him enough information regarding his task; he was tasked to 'let the plot run its course', however, he knew nothing of the plot and was only running around, trying to protect Qin Zuijia. Aside from that, there was nothing, so the baby would have been a great help.
