The woman smiled a hint of mischief in her eyes. "I've been having trouble identifying some of the herbs around here. Perhaps you could take a look and tell me what they are. I will also help you in your search after that."

Adrian hesitated for a moment, weighing his options. He needed to keep the woman's trust while finding a way to uncover the location of the bandit hideout. He nodded slowly, maintaining his shy demeanor. "O-Of course, Miss. I'd be happy to help."

The woman smiled, seemingly satisfied with his response. "Wait a moment then," she said, stepping out of the water. "No peeking alright?"

"Of course!" Adrian replied like a normal young man.

'I'll be damned if I even think of peeking you know.' He muttered inwardly, his gaze meeting a pair of purple eyes peeking at him through the bushes a little far from him. He could only smile wryly at the owner of the eyes. He had no other choice. Well, had one but it would be difficult.
