A trip to the second dimension

"Maybe you should be more open-minded. The power of the seal may not be necessary. You are working hard now, aren't you? Besides, no matter what, Link himself is not wrong. In my opinion, he is actually very similar to you. Both of you are the kind of guys with a strong sense of responsibility. Whenever there is a little thing, you want to take it on yourself."

"But doing this is actually very tiring. You should be able to see that Link has a blank expression all day long, and he rarely smiles. From this point, you can see that he is actually full of pressure."

While counseling Zelda, Hope can't help but think of himself.

Recalling the words that the captain said to him before crossing to this world, Hope suddenly felt that he didn't seem to have the right to say that to others.

Since getting the dimensional bracelet, Hope has always been like Zelda and Link in front of him, with a high sense of responsibility, constantly forcing himself to grow quickly.

The purpose is to lead the rise of humans in the steam world and drive those monsters out of the human world.

If I hadn't had this adventure, I'm afraid I would have felt very similar to Zelda.

The only difference is that the people around me wouldn't restrict me with such high standards.

"Why don't you give it a try? Give Link this Sika Slate, and maybe you can find a way to enter the temple. Also, you have to live for yourself sometimes, think more about yourself, and don't care about other people's eyes. Even if you can't find a way to awaken the power of the seal for the time being, there must be more than one way to defeat Ganon, right?"

"Just like what you are doing now, insisting on studying these ancient technologies will definitely help to defeat Ganon. Moreover, you are not without achievements. Didn't you summon me from another world? I am very strong, which means that the achievements I can achieve will also have an indispensable part of you."

"Even if you don't believe in yourself, you can try to believe in me and Link. Relax a little, maybe in this process, your power of the seal will awaken by itself?"

Looking at Hope's serious face to enlighten herself, Zelda didn't know why, but suddenly laughed.

In the inexplicable eyes of Hope, after Zelda finished laughing, she also bowed slightly to Hope very seriously, expressing her gratitude with a smile on her face.

"Next time I meet Link, I will give him the Sika Slate to try."

As the two were chatting, two soldiers who were eating at the bottom of the hill suddenly stood up and shouted.

"Who are you over there! What are you doing!"

Hope and Zelda were stunned when they heard it, and turned their heads to look. Because of the angle, they also saw two Hylians dressed as travelers walking with two horses on the other side of the valley road.

The two Hyrule soldiers at the bottom of the hill were scolding and asking questions, and they were the two people.

The two travelers were obviously startled by the sudden loud shouting of the soldiers.

But seeing that it was two soldiers who called them, they still did not do anything else, and approached very obediently, but their faces looked very panicked.

"What's going on?!"

The bearded soldier had already drawn his soldier's sword and winked at the bald soldier beside him. The other soldier also drew his weapon and walked towards the two timid travelers in front of him.

If they were just ordinary travelers, it would be very common in Hyrule Continent, and there was nothing strange about it.

But these two people were different. The horses they led were each carrying a Hylian corpse, which was why the soldiers were so vigilant.

"Tell me, what happened to them?"

The bald soldier pointed to the two corpses on the backs of the two horses, his expression very serious.

The bearded soldier behind him had also gone around to the other side with a sword, temporarily blocking the way for the two people.

"Soldier, we are just ordinary travelers, coming from the Celes Plain. It's just that we were unlucky and encountered wandering monsters on the way. Our two friends died at the hands of monsters. Because we couldn't bear to leave their bodies in the wilderness, we carried their bodies and wanted to find a good place to bury them."

One of the travelers who seemed a little brave spoke up.

The reason he gave made the soldiers stunned for a moment.

"Monsters again?"

The bald soldier looked at the bearded soldier on the other side, sighed, and said helplessly: "It seems that there are more and more cases of monsters attacking people recently."

"Can you tell me what kind of monsters they are?"

The bearded soldier carefully looked at the two bodies on the horse's back and found many wounds, which seemed to be traces of fierce fighting. There were also some wounds on the body, which left traces of biting.

"It's a Pokoblin! It's a red Pokoblin!"

The other traveler who had been silent all this time also spoke up at this time. He looked a little excited and nervous, and it seemed that he was frightened by the existence of the Pokoblin that the other party mentioned.

"Toby, calm down, we are safe now. After passing the Valley of the End, we will go east and soon enter Central Hyrule." The other traveler quickly patted Toby on the back, trying to calm him down.

After being comforted by his companions, the traveler finally calmed down, but his breathing was still uncontrollably rapid.

Looking at the expressions and reactions of the two, the soldiers looked at each other and felt that there should be no problem with the two.

However, the two did not bring good news.

After all, this meant that there were signs of monster activity in front of the Valley of the End.

While the four people were negotiating, Hope also walked down the hillside with Zelda.

After listening to half of the conversation, Hope looked back at Zelda with some confusion and asked curiously, "What is a red Pokémon?"

"It is a monster that lives throughout Hyrule. It usually appears in places where there are no large human settlements. It will attack passing travelers in groups like bandits. They are brutal by nature. Anyone who is targeted by them will not have a good ending except those who run away."

"In addition to robbing travelers' gifts, they will also dismember those travelers for food. Because Ganon is about to be resurrected recently, there are more and more monsters affected by Ganon. Father has recently planned to send troops to sweep some large-scale monster tribes, hoping to suppress the rampant monsters a little bit."

Zelda said, looking a little worried.

Hearing this, Hope nodded in understanding.
