Rebirth Of The Tree Fujoshi 72 Extremely Sus

I cautiously observe the boy that was able to hide his presence from me...or maybe I was too distracted.

A playfully grin accompanying golden eyes looking at me like a toy. Short, wavy blond hair hides his forehead. Sitting on a large rock, he looks about 10 to 11 years old. Red suspenders are attached to beige shorts. A light blue s.h.i.+rt is tucked into those shorts. His thin stature makes him seem dexterous...that, and the fact that he climbed such a large boulder without me noticing. I move my sight down to see a pair of bare feet swinging back and forth. The light brown skin is a contrast to the sparkling white canine tooth.

The boy lightly hops down from the boulder and skips over to me at an unnatural speed. With a devilish grin on his face, the cute but slightly scary child asks," Hey little fly, can you tell me where I am."

"..."

The arrogance of looking at me like prey contrasts the question he asks. Don't tell me..."Are you...lost?"

"Wha?! I'm not lost, you're lost!" The boy's demeanor starts to change. Crossing his arms, puffing out his cheeks, and tapping his foot against the ground in impatience, he repeats,"So, do you know where we are or not?"(o｀^´o)

...really a child. Really want to complain...

No, I can't drop down to his level, because then I would be the same as a child and, obviously, I am a very mature adult! u003c(˘⌣˘)u003e

"Hmm, well where do you want to go?" I ask.

"Eh? Ah..." He looks down in contemplation. I hear him whisper,"it's fine to tell it right?... yes, for the sake of the mission. I can't let master down..."

Does that it refer to me? So I went from "little fly" to "it"? I can't tell if that's and improvement or not...

Once the child made up his mind, he took out a map and pointed to a very familiar place,"I'm heading here."

"..." Now, you see, I must admit that this child was already pretty suspicious. I mean, a child that's in Manbun's territory and can hide his presence? I ignored that because he was a child and his child-like personality made me let down my guard, but this confirmed my suspicions.

The place the boy's finger is pointing to just happens to be a place I was just at, a very scary place...that right, Manbun's living quarters.
