"Hey Sophia, are you okay? It looks like you weren't feeling okay so I decided to check up on you."Anna said as she looked at Sophia, she couldn't help but wonder why Sophia simply had no reaction for the first few seconds when she called out to her in the first place, not only that she also noticed that she seemed to have been having some kind of nightmare since she had earlier noticed how she kept turning from side to side as she lay on the floor.
For a child as young as Sophia, she couldn't understand how terrible her nightmare could be for her to be so restless even in her sleep like that, nevertheless, she guessed the planet Straangee might have taken some kind of mental toll on her health.
As Sophia opened her eyes she slightly narrowed them and looked around until her eyes eventually stopped at where Anna was standing and was currently looking at her with a worried look on her expression, after coming back from the white room Sophia didn't say anything and simply kept quiet for several moments before she finally lifted her head and opened her mouth.
"Sorry, it seems like I was having a nightmare," Sophia said calmly, however, Anna didn't seem to mind her few words or the fact she replied coldly rather she had a soft smile on her expression, looking at Sophia made her feel like she had a stubborn teen young sister.

"Even though I understand you were lost if I was, to be honest, it wouldn't still change the fact that not only had they not bothered to contact you, it seemed like they had even abandoned you, so don't worry about it, am just happy you are alright. If you don't mind, how about we swap places?"Anna said with a soft smile.
Sophia stared back but didn't say anything before she stood up, however, since she wasn't feeling sleepy anymore so she decided to keep a watch out for any magical/demon beasts' attacks on them, to be precise herself, since she didn't trust Anna just the fact she had been possessed by a strong demon beast made her even more wary and cautious.
For such a type of person who likely no longer had control over themselves, they could suddenly lose their senses and go on a rampage killing everything in their sight.
After they swapped places, Anna lay on the cold hard uncomfortable floor while giving the place that she had made a bit nice and more comfortable to Sophia, although she was surprised Sophia didn't continue sleeping, nevertheless, she didn't mind when Sophia became sleepy she was sure she would eventually sleep on the place she had left out for her.
Sophia couldn't help but look at Anna from the corners of her eyes, judging from what she could see she was sure Anna wasn't sleeping and was likely pretending to be, however, she didn't say anything and continued keeping a watch out for any beasts attack, while she did this she kept thinking about Bernard and what might have happened to him.
If she was, to be honest, she was scared about what might have happened to him, even though she didn't want to admit it considering the fact her instincts don't lie she still felt there was a slim chance he was alive but then she had no clue where he was.
All she knew was that he might have encountered an unfavorable situation, and although she was worried about him at the same time she couldn't help bbut wondered what truly happened, the reason she thought so was quite simple he was a being referred to as an abomination a child of two Aboriginals, for someone who had a near strongest symbiote bloodline in the world she couldn't fathom what might be able to truly put his life at risk.
Even if she assumed he wasn't yet at rank 7 or even 6 he should still be as strong as her at her peak if not a bit stronger considering all these, she wonder if it was those high-tier demon beasts that had attacked him, but then even with that, she was sure he could still escape if he wanted to that was when she thought what if he was attacked by a group of high tier demon beasts that was the only situation she was sure he would be hard-pressed to get away from.
Sophia clenched her fist tightly before she let out a slight deep breath while she didn't notice it her eyes had become slightly red as though she wanted to cry, unlike the people she had met before, Bernard was the only person who had easily accepted her and had even risked his life to come save her when she was truly in a life-threatening situation otherwise, he wouldn't have been in this situation in first.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs she thought about the second-year students, she immediately narrowed her eyes, she only had one thought in her mind. She just hopes nothing happened to her Bernard, otherwise, she would definitely go back to the academy and turn the entire second-year upside down.
At this moment Sophia began to contemplate whether she should just leave the plan of searching for the stargate or teleportation device with Anna, and simply go out to look for Bernard instead, after all, he might be dying at the moment. She could only hope he could last as long as he could until she found him herself, at the same time she dreaded the thought of what she would do if she finds out anything happens to him.
While she was thinking she couldn't help but wonder if she should just kill Anna right there and now, after all, she didn't really trust her she might suddenly do something crazy when she sensed Bernard was different and unique, although she hated to admit it there was also a chance the demon beast possessing her might likely leave her body to try to possess Bernards body.
This was a worrisome thought that kept ringing in her head making her keep contemplating whether she should just kill her right there or simply look for the stargate first, then if she shows any sign of trying to harm Bernard she would then do everything she could to kill her.
The reason she thought so was that Anna was a standard explorer who knew more about a stargate or teleportation device, and her knowledge might come in handy when they discovered the stargate. After a while, Sophia calmed herself down, although she was still worried about Bernard she tried to do all she could to not let her nerves get the best of her.
