Is Someone Playing a Prank on Us...?

"Hm?" As Scaly began slowly approaching the group of humans who were busy examining the remains of the human knight she had killed not long ago, one of them suddenly stood up with a frown on his face.

Ah!? Did he notice me!?

Feeling the gaze of the human who stood up focusing on her general location, Scaly could not help freezing on the spot as she stopped moving. Not daring to make any sudden movements in case she was discovered before she could get close enough to carry out her plan.

"What is it? Did you notice something?"

Luckily, just as it seemed like he might have found her, one of the other humans spoke up and distracted him. Giving Scaly an opportunity to dig herself into the soft mud and better hide herself as his attention focused on the human who had suddenly spoken up.
