Arthur slowly opened his eyes after a few seconds. He felt a sharp pain in his head and his vision was blurry. As he tried to focus, he saw a beautiful girl coming towards him. He couldn't believe his eyes. Was she an angel? He thought he might have died in the fight. But if he was alive, how could such a heavenly being be on earth?

Before he could process his thoughts, the Lily kicked him with her foot. Arthur winced in pain as he tried to get up. The girl was angry.

She asked him how he could have been so careless and let his guard down.

Arthur looked around and saw that two young people were standing before him. They were both beautiful and had red hair that resembled each other's, like twins.

They introduced themselves as James Welt and Jasmine Welt.

Arthur was surprised to see them. He remembered that he and Lily were in trouble and needed help.

He asked James and Jasmine how they managed to help them. James explained that they had come to this place to finish a commission but had no idea that they would stumble upon Arthur and Lily in such a state.

Lily was relieved to see them. Both thanked them for their help and asked if they could travel together.

James and Jasmine agreed, and they started their journey towards their destination. However, before they set off, James and Jasmine asked if they had any food and water. They were starving, and their supplies had run out.

After a while, they reached the cave where the demonic bats resided. According to the commission, the bats had been attacking the crops in the town at night, causing injuries to the people. The adventurers had been hired to solve the problem.

As they entered the cave, they saw that many other adventurers had come for the same purpose.

There were at least 40 of them, all ready to take on the bats. James and Jasmine were thrilled to see so many people, and Jasmine commented that it was like a big adventure.

However, one old man from another group looked at Arthur disapprovingly. He told them that this was a dangerous place and that they should leave. But James and Jasmine refused to back down.

They knew they had a duty to help the people, and they were not going to let anyone stop them.

Lily, who was not one to mince words, told the old man to move away. He was angered by her comment, but the leader of his group intervened and told the children that he would take care of any problems.

As they moved deeper into the cave, Arthur noticed the old man again. He felt like he knew him from somewhere, but he couldn't remember where. With that thought, they continued on their mission, moving forward using light magic to guide them through the dark cave.
