Korneel smiled slightly, saying. "A woman with such abilities is hardly an ordinary woman."

He said this with a pause before asking. "What do you think of her master?"

"Not much," Rikkert shook his head. "From her footwork, she's clearly trained in martial arts, but that's about it. She might have done it just for fitness."

"But from what I saw, you seemed quite cautious around her. Why is that?" Komealad already sensed Pikkert's unease, so he pressed further.

Rikkert frowned. "My instincts tell me she's carrying something extremely dangerous. If you plan to make a move, you need to be careful"

"Extremely dangerous?" Korneel mused, intrigued by this statement.

Korneel stared at the parasite for a long moment, before muttering, "The King Parasite is unaffected"

That meant whatever she was carrying was not a parasite.
