Chapter 1548 You Are Late

They paired up and started exploring the place, but not long after they came in and went along thecave, they realized that the path was becoming broader and broader, and everything was becomingclearer around them.

Vivian noticed that something was wrong, and she asked, “What's happening, Duncan? Why is thepath becoming smoother all of a sudden?”

A frown appeared on Duncan's face. He was still thinking about that question, but then he noticed afamiliar scent lingering in the air, and he stopped walking for a moment.

Vivian was holding his hand, and when she realized he had stopped, she came to a halt as well.“What is it, Duncan? What happened?”

“It's nothing. Wait right here for me. I'll take a look over there.” He let her go and went to the spotwhere the scent was the heaviest.

She didn't know what he was trying to do, but she didn’t dare move around in such an unfamiliararea, so she waited for Duncan to make his return. About five to six worrying minutes later, Duncanfinally came back, much to her relief.

Vivian asked him, “What is it, Duncan? Did you replace something over there?”

Duncan answered, “Yes. There's dried sand over there. There might even be an exit too. Your brotherprobably left using that exit. We'd better get going right now.”

“All right then.” Vivian agreed with Duncan.

They trotted quickly along the cave, but this time, they didn’t even make five hundred meters. All ofa sudden, a loud rumble was heard, and the ground started shaking violently.

Vivian was shocked by the sudden development. “What is happening, Duncan? Why is this placesuddenly caving in?”

“I—" Before Duncan could even say anything, the ground they were stepping on suddenly cracked,and the two of them fell through it.

The moment Vivian fell through, a stab of pain traveled up her head from her right ankle, andeverything turned black around her. Before she blacked out, her last thoughts were, This place isbooby-trapped? Wait, that means lan’s in trouble.

When she regained consciousness, she realized there was something wet around her lips, and shedrank the sweet liquid even though she didn't know what it was. Who is it? Is it Duncan?

She finally regained her consciousness, and she opened her eyes, but what she saw first wasunending darkness. “Duncan? Is that you there? Where are we? Do you know what this place is?"she held the person who was feeding her and quickly barraged him with a lot of questions.However, the person was keeping quiet. His hands were cold and hard, but Duncan's were muscular.Hm? Who is this?

Vivian thought about it for a few seconds, then she suddenly grabbed the person's finger andreflexively touched his hand. “Oh my god, Kurt! Why didn’t you show up earlier? I almost died, forgod's sake!”

She started crying like a baby, and she pounced on the person before her. She hugged him andcried in his embrace, as if she had found someone she could rely on even though that person wastwo years younger than she was.

The darkness and the unknown dangers that lurked within tensed Kurt up, but when the girl startedcrying right in front of him, he couldn't bring himself to get angry at her. He sighed in resignation,and he couldn't bring himself to push her away.

Well, what else can I do but spoil her? Kurt picked her up from the ground and leaped up, then hepulled them up the stone wall using the vines that hung around them.

Vivian was still in a state of shock. She was busy crying her heart out earlier, so when Kurt cameback up with her in his arms, she was still staring at him dumbly. At that moment, what she thoughtwas, Hey, how did I get up here so fast anyway?

Kurt ignored her. After they came up, he took her to a brighter place and placed her down, then hestarted checking her ankle.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!” The moment he touched it, she started shouting in pain, and a look of agonypainted her face.

Kurt stopped touching her ankle immediately. He put her down and stood up to look around them.Vivian asked, “Where are you going? Don’t leave me here alone.”

Kurt answered, “I will not. I'll get some sticks to secure your leg in one place. Then I'll prop you upand take you with me.”

Vivian protested, “Prop me up? But I don't want to walk! I want you to give me a piggyback ride! Myankle’s hurt, and you want me to walk? How could you!"

And the girl started crying again. Even though she had grown, she was still the same little girlwhenever she cried. Her tears would keep streaming down her cheeks.

Kurt could not believe what he was hearing.

That was the difference between him and the boy called Duncan. Before they came into the cave,Duncan had told Vivian to hold his waist, but she had refused. However, when Kurt said he wouldn'teven give her a ride on his back, she started crying pitifully.

Kurt's mood was significantly lifted. He came back and picked her up from the ground instead ofcarrying her on his back.

Vivian said, “O-Oh, are you going to hold me like this? But I'm a heavy girl.”

Kurt answered, “It is all right. We should leave this place and replace your brother right now.”

Oh, right. I have to replace him. Vivian finally snapped out of her delusion, and her face was red withembarrassment. Even though the road ahead was dark, she still felt at ease. For some reason, shealways felt at ease as long as Kurt was around.

"Oh, Kurt. Did you see Duncan? He fell into this place with me.”

“I did not see him.” The young man who was holding her looked as cold as ice.
