43. Embark on a journey-Encounter a group of fierce bandits-4

Danial is waiting for something.

No, he is waiting for someone. He stood underneath a tree, arms folded to his body, his right index finger mindlessly tapping his forearm.

Danial's ears perked up. He heard a faint movement from somewhere approaching him at high speed. Danial moved slightly from his initial position. He looked up just in time to catch a black shadow hopping from one tree to another.

Swish! Thud!

The leaves and broken branches fell like a sprinkle of snow, and a human's silhouette suddenly emerged in the sky. He gracefully dropped himself not too far from Danial, immediately settling into a kneeling posture.

Adam got startled by the man's sudden appearance and hastily drew out his sword. He thought he was an enemy. Once Adam recognized the man's identity, he calmly sheathed back his weapon.

The man's ragged breathing sounded faintly in the quiet background.
