"Right! But even if she is a girl, she is one of the family members and your granddaughter... If outsiders found that you let me take the lead, regardless of your granddaughter's life, it would be a disgrace to the Keith family."

I spoke slowly, mentioning our neighbor's gossip without panic.

With her temper, she couldn't stand it.

As I expected, after thinking for a moment, she asked Andy to take the lead.

Then, I raised my eyebrows at Olivia provocatively.

I thought to myself, "Wait for killing the python? Humph, wait to be killed!"

I woke up early in the morning and put the prepared garlic, realgar, and snake-repellent powder into my clothes.

If I were to be attacked by that python, these things might save my life.

Olivia stood opposite me, yawning, and it felt like something was moving in her belly.

The room was hot and stuffy, and Andy was shirtless. Until now, I noticed that his belly was bigger than usual, and even its color was darker than the rest of his skin.

Tina was no exception.

I was in a daze, then was called back to my senses by Olivia's voice. "Why are you standing there motionless? Are you scared?"

As the other two heard it, they turned around suddenly and stared at me.

It seemed like if I admitted to being afraid, they would eat me like a meal.

There was a greedy gleam in Olivia's eyes.

Feeling uncomfortable while being stared at, I unconsciously tightened my grip on the machete.

"Of course not."

Obviously, I saw their frowns relax.

The three of them were laughing and talking all the way, without any fear at all. On the contrary, I remained silent, holding tightly the life-saving things in my hands.

In any case, people should always maintain a sense of awe.

Andy crossed the warning area and explored the way ahead with a machete. Tina supported clumsy Olivia and walked with difficulty.

I held the machete tightly and kept an eye on the movements on both sides.

Then, I almost hit someone.

"Sophia, you are safe in the end, so it is better to give me the machete for self-defense."

She turned around and tried to grab the machete, but I swung it at her chest and almost cut her.

Tina, who had pretended not to see, immediately stood in front of her.

"It's just a machete. Do you know you almost hurt my daughter?"

What an old bastard!

If it weren't for her daughter, she would not stand up to speak.
