With a smile playing on her lips, she deliberately raised her voice, teasingly saying:
"Tsk tsk, a fatal blow."
"Mr. Gray Sword, your skills seem even sharper than the rumors."
"Have you hunted beasts in the forest often before?"
Xia Nan's expression was calm, gently wiping the longsword with gauze, not even looking up.
"Cutting goblins more often."
He didn't answer directly, but he wasn't lying either.
Using ambiguous words to handle the other's probing.
There was no slip-up during the battle that exposed his own strength.
The marks left on the wild boar were intended for the team to see.
Xia Nan thought very clearly.
As senior adventurers who have achieved professional levels, none would blindly trust each other unconditionally.
While observing the others, they were also probing him.
Through his performance in battle, he analyzed Cash and Vireis's profession, level, and fighting style, while the others surely assessed his own skills.
