Clueless

A few minutes ago.

Theo came out of the hill and walked into the forest, meeting Nina and Davi.

He dropped his jaw, never expecting to see his master here. "Master?"

Nina looked at him and nodded. "Have you been well?"

"Yes. What are you doing here?"

Before she answered, a huge "boom" resounded across the forest, startling Theo.

"What's that?" Theo widened his eyes in shock as he had never heard something that loud.

"Do you remember me telling you that some people will try to come after you?"

Theo furrowed his eyebrows. "Of course I do. You said there might be some experts trying to be my master. They will use all sorts of approaches to force me to be their student. They may even kill me if I refuse."

"Yeah. Someone has come to Thersland this time." Nina pointed to the direction where the sound came. "I couldn't handle him, so the Griffith Family sent a backup."

"Is that so?"
