Chapter 184: Her Palace

"Amaya did not blink at all.  Her focus was on the snake under the water.  At the right moment, she dipped her hand into the water at lightning speed and held the snake by the neck.  However, she underestimated the strength of the snake. 

The snake coiled its body around Amaya's legs.  Amaya tightened her grip around the snake's neck.  The snake tightened its coil around Amaya's legs.  She felt that the bones in her legs were about to crush.  She was was about to fall when suddenly she felt the coil on her legs loosened.

Marx with his dagger slashed on the upper body of the snake.  It was cut in half and the water that was clear earlier was dyed red.

"Are you okay, Aya?"  Marx asked worriedly.

"I am fine.  Thank you." Amaya's legs were still weak because of poor blood circulation.  "The water is dirty here.  Let's go upstream to rinse.  Your clothes are tainted with blood and you have to rinse it."
