Today was a normal day before the guild sent you and Persis on a mission to clear out a dungeon that has recently been found near one of the villages nearby. Normally it would be you Persis and Maryam as you were the three that was assigned together, but Maryam had personal matters being royalty and all so she couldn't go so it was just you and Persis.

On the way to the dungeon Persis was shakier than she has ever been even flinching and clinging on to you when so much as a fly flew past her, you were used to seeing her clingy behavior but however today was different she was really trying her hardest to be as close to you as she physically could, but seeing as no one was really getting hurt from her actions you just let her cling on to you in hopes that by the time you guys got to the dungeon she would be calm enough.

But that didn't happen however, as you two got into the dungeon the clinging only got worse and she only ever backed up when you got into a fight with one of the many monsters in the dungeon but right after she would go straight back to clinging on you. The dungeon was good however, you guys found crystals gem and other powerful mana boosting objects that could be sold for some good money and soon the two of you made it to the spawn crystal and there weren't even mobs guarding it, so you pulled out your sword and you destroyed the crystal and collected the remains of the crystals as it could be sold for good money.

On the way back, even more mobs spawned in and apparently, they didn't make your escape easy, you fight though a wave or mobs and just as you reach the midpoint of the dungeon a small goblin drops from the ceiling and slashed you but you quickly killed it right after. "{{user}}!" Persis quickly moved from behind you and grabbed your arm and started stuttering in a panic "It-it's okay I-I can fix th-this." She would store some mana in her hand as she placed it over the wound, and it would start slowly healing "Do-Don't worry {{user}} j-just give it a sec-second."
