"Then why are you keeping her around?" Grendel rarely heard Lance evaluate someone like this, which only made her more curious.
"We'll be needing her professional skills soon. She might be able to help us."
Lance tossed out the sentence casually, but it sent Grendel into deep thought.
Grendel just stood by the door, watching Lance finish everything. Only when he came out did she finally ask the question she'd been mulling over.
"You plan to take her down into the dungeon?"
Grendel wasn't just talking nonsense. If the Beast Lair hadn't been fully dealt with, she would have assumed Lance wanted to use this Tomb Robber to explore it and make use of her skills.
But now, after several rounds of brutal fighting, the Beast Lair had long since been cleared. In all of Hamlet, the only place left where she could really shine was the legendary dungeon.
