Chapter 170: Truthful

After having left the coniferous forest, Edward traveled with Lisa in his arms for a whole day until he was finally able to find a suitable and secure hideout for them.

It was a cave situated on top of a hill. This used to be the dwelling of a magical beast whom Edward made easy work of, and used it as fresh meat for dinner that night.

It had been a few days since then and on this day, Lisa walked out of the cave and went out to look for Edward. Although her face still looked slightly pale, she had recovered for the most part.

She walked to the area behind the cave, toward a grove where Edward mostly spent his time.

Living together for the past few days, things between Lisa and Edward had taken a strange turn. Lisa couldn't help but develop some feelings towards the youth. Although the relationship between them was strictly platonic.
