36 Patrol Squad's Camp! Hidden Mission!

Dye didn't suspect a thing as the guard led them to the Patrol Squad's Camp. The benefits outwheighed the loss. They did have to lose some daily necessities, but their travel time had also been reduced by more than a half.

The journey to the Patrol Squad's Camp didn't take long. By the time they arrived, it was still two Pos into the Shui Period (reminder : 5 P.M.) and they had time to do some things like cleaning up. Because their journey would be cut by more than a half, Dye decided to give the horses to the Patrol Squad. She could just tame more later.

They were given a tent, big enough to fit five but not six. Though, they realized that both Dye and Ynoir were small, so it didn't matter much. Most of the things were stored inside the inventory as they fell asleep. The one taking the most space was Julian, though Dye didn't complain as he had cut their journey off by one third previously.

As there were only six mats, both Dye and Ynoir had to share. Honestly, Ynoir wasn't all that ready to be really intimate with a lady. Even though Dye seemed nothing like the elegant woman he had in mind, she was still a female, and Ynoir felt really depressed.

His growth was stagnant for quite some time when he had been in a coma. Ynoir felt that it was too hateful. He was much more agile than the others, but his body was fairly smaller than theirs. He felt inferior to the other men. Even Kaen was leaner and bulkier than him. Kaen didn't even do anything productive for a long time!

"Are you asleep, Ynoir?" Suddenly, Ynoir heard a sweet voice from beside him. He opened his eyes to meet Dye's worried ones. Dye was really considerate to the team members, and Ynoir knew this too. Somehow, his chest felt stuffy as he sucked in a deep breath.

"No...," Ynoir whispered, "I can't sleep."

Although Dye had average looks and average body, her intelligence was beyond mortals'. Ynoir had to admit, even the elves wouldn't be able to come up with various things like Dye.

"Do you want me to sing you a song?" Dye asked, her voice soft as if she was afraid to wake up the others. Even if she did, they wouldn't mind. Dye had done a lot of things for them after all.

"No need, your throat will be sore tomorrow," Ynoir said, turning around, "I'll try my best to sleep."

"Ynoir, if you can't sleep, don't overwork yourself," Dye advised, "It's not good for the future."

Ynoir felt touched as he turned around and looked at Dye again. Though, his chest felt stuffy once more. He didn't want to worry Dye so he just flashed her a grin before turning around again. Though, when he did, he suddenly heard Dye gasp.

Ynoir didn't want to let Dye know that his chest felt stuffy whenever he saw her, so he directly asked without turning around, "Dye, what happened?"

"It's a hidden quest, and there's a minimum of 2 people," Dye said, showing the quest log to Ynoir, "I didn't expect this."

"There's a confidant in the Patrol Squad's Camp?" Ynoir was a little surprised. Dye nodded before thinking for a bit.

"Should we tell the others?" She asked, "I don't want to wake them up though."

"No need," Ynoir said, "Only I have Vanish and only you have Lesser Invisibility. And you still remember that you can't support others' Invisible status if they're too far from you. We'll do it."

'Together.'
