"Paimon?"
When Steven heard the familiar voice, a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face, and he subconsciously went to open the door.
However, Mark quickly stopped him.
Mark frowned slightly, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes, but he remembered the 'Paimon Goddess' doll that he had thrown in the treatment room before, hesitated for a moment, and let go of his hand.
He tilted his head slightly, motioning Steven to step back, and he slowly reached out and gently pressed the door handle.
Paimon's hands were already sore from knocking on the door frame, and his throat was dry.
The little guy's face was full of anxiety, and his chubby little face was wrinkled into a ball.
So, Paimeng became a little anxious and knocked on the door with more force.
Fortunately, at this time, Mark opened the door.
As expected, Mark received a head-on blow from Paimon.
"Snap!" A crisp sound was heard, and Mark covered his forehead in pain, "Ouch!"
Paimon was also shocked by the reaction and cried out, "Ah!"
The burning sensation quickly disappeared, but the skin on Mark's forehead became visibly red and swollen.
The little Paimon who caused this result was now shaking his sore palms and blowing air.
Paimon pouted slightly, tears flashing in his eyes, and he seemed to be in great pain: "Mr. Steven's forehead seems to be made of stone, ugh! It hurts! Huh~Huh~Huh~"
Paimeng, who was accusing, glanced over and saw the other person's forehead beginning to swell, and the words he had not yet finished were suddenly stuck in his mouth.
"I'm sorry, that, Paimon didn't mean it. It was because you suddenly opened the door, Mr. Steven."
Paimon put his hands behind his back a little embarrassedly, his face flushed with embarrassment, and his little head drooped.
"Paimon knocked on the door for a long time but no one came out, so I got a little anxious and used a little too much force. Hehe, can Mr. Steven forgive Paimon for a moment?"
"No problem at all!"
Steven covered his smirking mouth, pushed the half-open door open completely, and walked out from behind Mark in a few steps.
"Wow!!! How come there are two identical Mr. Stevens....er or Mr. Mark??"
Little Paimeng's eyes widened, and his gaze kept moving back and forth between the two people.
Her mouth opened wide, her face full of disbelief.
"That doesn't make sense. Could it be that the dried mushrooms that Paimon ate before coming here caused the hallucination?"
Paimon tilted his head, his little face full of confusion.
"Uh....I guess this has nothing to do with Paimon's snacks."
Mark shook his head helplessly, pointed at himself, and introduced Steven to Paimon.
"So that's how it is. The one wearing the shirt is Mr. Steven, and the one wearing the hospital gown is Mr. Mark." Paimon effectively distinguished the identities of the two people based on their distinct external differences. She nodded seriously, with an expression of sudden enlightenment on her little face.
"Anyway, it's great to see you two. Otherwise, Paimon really doesn't know what to do. This place is deserted, not even a single person can be seen, and we don't know where the travelers are right now. Anyway, let's go find the others first!"
Paimon's face was full of anxiety and worry, and his little hands kept waving.
The little girl angrily told them that not long ago, when she opened her eyes, she found herself hanging on a tree branch. Not only was there a hole in her clothes poked by the branch, but she was also soaked by the rain.
Paimon's brows were furrowed, as if two tiny caterpillars were lying on his forehead, and his little mouth was pouting so high that a small oil bottle could be hung on it.
She gritted her teeth viciously, and her chubby face turned red because of anger.
"Humph! It must be that damned Alps who is causing trouble!"
"He must be holding a grudge against Paimon because Paimon refuted his words before, so he is plotting something secretly!"
mark:"......"
That's right.
At Paimon's age, being able to use idioms is already very cultured, isn't it? As for the accuracy rate and so on, that's all nonsense, right?
Compared to Mark who held an encouraging attitude, Steven said whatever he wanted to say. He hesitated for a moment, raised his hand, and pointed out the small mistake: "Oh, I understand, Paimon, you must be talking about doing something bad in secret."
"Yes, that's right, doing something bad in secret!"
Seeing that Paimon was not angry, Steven wanted to continue making efforts for Anubis who had lost his real name. However, after seeing the little guy's puffy cheeks, he immediately gave up the idea.
Forget it, the Alps, just the Alps.
So Steven gave up on correcting Paimon's little mistake.
【EXCUSE ME ???】
Anubis, who was secretly observing the others from a God's perspective, tilted his wolf head: [Ha???]
Paimon stomped his feet hard in the air twice, as if to vent all the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Then she continued her story.
It turned out that after searching outdoors for a while without any results, Paimeng had to go back to the branch where he had originally hung himself.
It was only then that she noticed the open window next to the tree branch, which was just big enough for her to get in.
“There’s something wrong with this place.”
Paimon held his chin and analyzed, his little face full of seriousness.
"The room that Paimon flew into looked like a fierce battle had taken place not long ago. The chairs were overturned, and there were traces of someone struggling on the ground. There was even a big hole in the door, and broken glass was scattered all over the floor!"
Paimon gestured excitedly, waving his little hands in the air, as if he was recreating the scene at that time.
"I was so scared that I quickly flew out of that room. Who knew that when I got out, there was no one outside to ask for directions. Luckily, I vaguely heard you talking when I passed this door."
It was hard for Mark not to associate Paimon with what happened in the clinic before. He remembered that he accidentally threw 'Goddess Paimon' in the direction of the window of that room.
......
"Wait, if the two of us failed Anubis's trial, then how did you appear here, Paimon?!"
Steven thought more: "I didn't expect Anubis would not even let children go!! What a scumbag!"
God scum?!
Me???
Anubis, who was the one who took the blame, had his fur on his face darken eight shades: [Bro!!]
【Brrro——!! 】
【Seriously? ? ? 】
【puff! 】
Anubis turned his head sharply and glared at the person who made the noise next to him: [Dead bird, what are you laughing at! ! ]
Kongsu, who was watching the fun from the side, opened his sharp beak and raised it slightly, revealing a playful smile. He waved his hand at Anubis and said nonchalantly: [Sorry, Alps~]
【...】
Anubis narrowed his wolf eyes, and a dangerous light flashed in them.
Kong Su suddenly felt something was wrong, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.
Before he could react, he saw a huge surge of sand in the desert suddenly surge up, rushing towards Kong Su like a surging ocean wave, and instantly burying him in the ground.
Looking at the flat ground, Anubis turned his head with satisfaction and continued observing.
"No, actually the travelers think that there is some hidden reason why Mr. Steven and Mr. Mark failed the trial, so they all came to find you. Anyway, don't just stand there, let's go find other people!"
Paimon couldn't help but urge.
After hearing this, they both felt a warm feeling in their hearts.
Steven's face showed a touched expression and his eyes were slightly moist. He didn't expect that everyone had done so much for them.
Mark lowered his head slightly, a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes, and then he shook his head firmly, deciding to put aside the previous problems. Since his friends took risks for them, there was no need to hesitate.
Steven immediately suggested to go somewhere else first. As he spoke, he warned the two of them in a serious manner: "Don't open the coffin in the next room. The person imprisoned in it is definitely not a good person. I can hear the beast-like roar and curses from him through the wall and wood."
Steven's brows were furrowed, with an expression of disgust and vigilance on his face.
"I can be sure that the person imprisoned in there is definitely not the Traveler, Senor, or Villette."
Is there a coffin next door?
Mark frowned slightly, thinking secretly in his heart.
Mark noticed that he didn't seem to hear any noise from next door when he came, but since Steven said so, he didn't think much about it.
When Paimon heard that it was not the travelers inside, he lost interest in the next room.
"Then let's go!"
The three of them walked quickly along the corridor towards the door at the end.
Their steps were hurried and their faces were filled with anxious expressions.
Paimon flew in front, looking back from time to time to urge the two people behind him, while Steven and Mark followed closely behind.
At this time, a huge figure outside the gate at the end was getting closer and closer through the frosted glass.
The three of them felt uneasy and their pace slowed down slightly.
They stared nervously at the increasingly clear figure, their hearts filled with doubts.
Just when the three of them arrived at the gate.
boom!
The door was opened.
A big hippopotamus with short ears, small eyes, thin nostrils, a big mouth, a sun disk on his head and wearing gold and silver jewelry walked in.
The three people and the hippo looked at each other for 2 seconds.
The hippopotamus raised his right hand and waved at the few people.
"hi~~"
Its voice was as clear and sweet as that of a young girl, but unfortunately it scared the three people opposite.
"Ahh-!"
Steven was so frightened that his face turned pale, his eyes widened, and his mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg.
"Ahhhh——!"
Mark was also very scared, his body was tense, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
“Wow——!!!”
Paimon was so scared that he curled up in the air, covering his mouth with his hands, and exclaimed: "What a big hippo! The big hippo is talking!!"
