Chapter 100: Power and Ambtion - I

As Ansel escorted Seraphina to the village entrance, the villagers who had searched for her all night were dumbfounded, doubting whether they were experiencing an illusion. 

After all, the situation concluded with the villagers' most desired outcome: the nobles resumed supplying resources to the village, and Seraphina, under Ansel's guidance, embarked on a grander journey.

Ansel once asked Seraphina if she wanted her parents to be brought to Hydral's territory, where their safety could be maximally ensured, but she declined. 

The young girl reasoned, "If I only bring my parents, what about the others? If I were to bring everyone, wouldn't that be overstepping?"

Her words surprised Ansel, who had not anticipated such growth in Miss Seraphina. 

"However, Ansel, how shall we deal with that serpent?" 

Seraphina inquired curiously, nestled close to Ansel in the warm carriage.
