The Request (1)

"I see, so your name is Ban!" Yakob nodded his head and also commended Ban for having such a cautious attitude. 

Indeed, if one wants to succeed in this world, one must be cautious towards anyone, especially to people they just met. Heck, even direct family members betray each other, how much more some strangers? 

The reason why he was honest to him, even though it was obvious that Ban was still a young lad, was because he smelled the stench of the Demon Mushroom from him. 

No, it was not him who smelled it, but his Monster, who was now lying not far away from them, clearly exhausted after running for too long. 

Previously, he only came here as his Monster also smelled cooked meat from over here. They were searching for the people who were responsible for killing the Demon Mushroom so he thought that they might have come to the real place.
