It took around a half hour for them to fill their stomach, As Yuu was laying on the ground while Mio eating the purple fruit, at the same time something moved closer toward their direction. Through its stealthy method, it jumped out from the bushes into in front of Mio, with an arrow ready at the tip of its bow directed at her head.
Much to their surprise, Yuu immediately grabbed his dagger. As he watched the tortoise skinned person, covered with a brown leather cloak and leaf green colored hair still directing the arrow right at Mio's head. "What are you?!" Yuu shouted.
As the hooded figure turned its face toward Yuu, it showed its womanly figure and light green eyes with dark green vertical pupils similar to those of a cat.
Mio surprised and confused reacted a little too late. With nervous eyes and trembling voice "E..erm... Yuu, I don't think she knows our language."
"Yeah, right. Of course, only human know the common language." Said the husky voice woman as she glared at Mio.
Though Yuu also felt a chilling aura came out from her, knowing that running away wasn't an option, slowly Yuu prepared to throw his dagger. "You trying to get killed?" Said the green woman as another arrow grazing at Yuu's cheek. "Drop your dagger and put your hand behind your head."
As Yuu's hand released the dagger, and he did as the green woman said. "Good, now give me your artifact or I'll kill your lover."
Artifact? Lover?
It seemed as though… as though she thought that both of them were a lover, after hearing her word, Mio quickly reply "W..what... we are not a lover!"
Now the green woman eyes went to Mio. "Is that so? then just give me the artifact."
"...The fuck is an artifact?" Yuu muttered his thought.
"Are you dumb? the thing that you used to create this fire."
"You mean the lighter?" Yuu reached his pants pocket and showed the lighter to the green woman. The green woman eyes flickered, and she quickly pointed her arrow toward Yuu.
"Yes, yes! that thing, now put it on the ground and walked away from there."
After Yuu was moving some distance away, the green woman was moving carefully toward the light, while still pointing her arrow to Yuu. Now her eyes had been dragged to what appeared to be a transparent red crystal laying on the ground.
So, seeing her smiling face. Slightly reassured that she wouldn't launch the arrow, Yuu spoke. "So... can we go?"
Pleased with her haul. "Duh, of course not. now, how do I use this?" The green woman began to look at the lighter curiously like she was searching for some kind of switch.

Against his better judgment, Yuu approached her, his intuition somewhat telling him that the green woman didn't mean any harm. "I don't mind giving it and teaching it to you, but can you give us a shelter? or maybe telling us the nearby city location."
But, as the green woman shifting toward Yuu and Mio, the process took so long then after some time had passed, tthe green woman said "Dork, let me see your status."
Much to Yuu surprise, Yuu opened his status screen and showed it to the green woman, although without seeing or glancing at it, the woman said. "You really a smart one eh, showing off your status to a stranger."
Scratching his head. Didn't understand what the green woman meant, eventually with a deep long sigh, the green woman agreed to Yuu offer and took them to her house.
Located slightly far from their location. They found a big tree with a big hole in its base and connected by the stream. "What? are you waiting for an invitation letter?" Said the woman as she entered the tree. Inside the tree, they could see all the dead animals being stored inside. The tree's interior lighting appeared to come from bioluminescent mushrooms growing on the walls.
The first thing that Yuu did was dropping Mio and laying on the floor while panting. "...and she said her house is nearby."
"E...ehm.. sorry, if only I didn't roll 1 at my skill." Said Mio weakly as she watched Yuu, barely able to move his body after running for three hours while chasing the green woman.
"Now can I see your status?" Said the green woman. As both of them showed her their status, "Hoo~ this is a high stat, are you two a noble? You don't seem to be a noble though this lady seems like one." She stared at them curiously.
"E...erm... no, I'm not. but what is the relation between a noble and a high status?" once again Mio clapped her hand and answered her own question. "Ah! are nobles having a higher status than the usual people?"
"Nope, they are just rich people. Well~ you two don't seem dangerous. I'll show you mine but don't tell anyone."

"E...ehm... Miss Clorevica right? may I call you that? but isn't your stat a little bit too low?" Mio said without confident.
"Just Clorevica is fine, by the way, too low huh? that is something that I rarely heard." Said Clorevica after she took a deep sigh.
"Oh, then you're a strong one?" This time, Yuu was the one that spoke his mind.
"Nope~ I'm just slightly better than the average." Taking another deep sigh. "Listen, I don't know how your parent raises you or where do you live, but I born with d8 roll, and gained a d4 for everytime I leveled up."
"Oh? then isn't your stat a little bit too high?" Asked Yuu.
"Well for nobles or rich person, they could buy a status dice though, the price is insane, like really insane. That's why I asked that question from before."
"Then... you're a rich person?"
"Duh, of course. Just take a look at my tree house located in the middle of a jungle, absolutely I'm a rich one." Beneath the way she spoke, there was a clear sarcastic tone that came out of her eyes.
