Rin silenced her footsteps and moved forward quietly.
Until now, she had been able to move stealthily by hiding behind bushes or trees and waiting for monsters to pass, but the number of monsters increased the further she went.
There were often terrains where it was difficult to hide, so eventually, there was a limit to just staying hidden.
Rin quietly poked her head out from behind a tree to survey the surroundings.
There was one Stinger on guard nearby. It didn't look easy to pass by without being noticed.
...Should I take care of that one?
Climbing the tree soundlessly, Rin leapt high from a branch.
─!
Leaping significantly behind the Stinger's field of vision, Rin slashed the flying Stinger with her sword.
It happened in an instant, so the Stinger, ambushed from behind, plummeted without even a chance to react.
'I won't be caught for a while, right...?'
She would probably be discovered soon, but for now, buying enough time to check the area ahead was sufficient.
