Chapter 195: An Adventurous Morning

As they stepped outside, the cool breeze of the morning greeted them, carrying with it the fresh scent of the forest. Alicia took a deep breath, relishing the feeling of freedom that surrounded her.

"Isn't it beautiful out here?" Alicia remarked, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she glanced at the lush greenery that stretched out before them at a distance.

Matilda nodded in agreement, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips as she took in the serene landscape.

"It certainly is." She agreed, her earlier worries fading away in the presence of such natural beauty.

As Matilda spoke, her voice took on a mysterious tone, adding to the intrigue of her words.

Alicia listened intently, her eyes wide with fascination as she hung onto every word.

"Say, do you know there is a large pond in the forest?" Matilda began, her tone conspiratorial as she leaned in closer to Alicia.
