Another World Trip: Journey with My Cat and an Otaku Loli Goddess Chapter 315 - Mortal Or Otherwise

Eventually, she asked a question that truly caught him off guard.

“Are you here to kill us?” she finally asked.

“Excuse me?” Long Di had no idea what she meant.

Him? Kill who?

“Are you here to kill us?” she asked once more. Her voice was like a heavenly zither. It echoed with a serene tone that would quell the stormiest seas.
