Kapitel 148: Running Home (End)

"This is... The forest is helping us," I hear Haletha mutter.

Despite being able to see Luxia, like the others, she doesn't seem to be aware that Luxia has a hand in the phenomenon. Actually, I, too, am not very sure if this is caused by Luxia after what she had said to me before the tunnel appeared.

She did say she could help me since she had regained her connection with the land, but when I asked her to lead the way, she told me the forest would do that for me.

It is very confusing whether it was the forest's initiative or purely her doing, but either way, as long as we can really escape the forest, I don't care. The fact that those bastards can still follow us, though, is still unfortunate.

"Luxia, can you block the entrance of the tunnel?"

'It's alright, Layland. I can assure you they won't be able to catch up to you.'
