"...You want me to go up there?" The beetle leader tapped his shoulder, as if cheering him on. It did not look that hard, since there were plenty of footholds.
"It's not that high."
Four meters at most? The ground was soft, so it did not seem he would die even if he fell. Still, it would be better if he could hang the hook somewhere...
"Can you climb up and set this up there?" Jude handed the hook to the beetle leader.
The leader hung the hook on his horn, hugged the cliff, and climbed. Before long, he came back down and drew a hook tied to a pole on the ground.
Ah, you tied it to a pole?
Lupo climbed into his backpack, and Jude pulled hard on the rope. After a few test pulls, it held steady. He nodded. It was strong enough.
"Just what am I doing in the middle of the night..."
Kung! Kung! Kung!
