Chapter 889: What If We Get Trapped

[Talila & Maeve's POV]

The last two girls were heading around the city to reach the western gate. While they were halfway there, explosions rang out to the east, causing Maeve to comment, ''Looks like Nala and Halime started earlier than expected.''

''Something must have happened, as they know how important this plan is,'' Talila replied before securing the scarf around her face.

They walked through the terrain until Talila abruptly halted, her ears twitching. Sensing danger, Maeve swiftly drew her sword as Novgorodian soldiers encircled them. The two girls tensed, preparing for combat.

Talila wielded her short swords with practiced skill while Maeve gripped her longsword tightly. As the soldiers charged towards them, the silver-haired elf acted first. She dashed forward, parrying a swing with precision before swiftly driving her blade into the enemy's throat.
